At the restaurant next door to the bull fighting ring in Pamplona they serve the testicles of the bull that lost that day as a delicacy for dinner that night. Now that Rangers are about to sign a manager described in the Daily Rectum as a Bull Fighting James Bond. I suspect the restaurant in Celtic park will be keen to carry on this tradition on the 12th march but i think any one who fancies this delicacy will be disapointed with the small portions as like in Pampalona the bullfighter doesn't always win.

Washed down with lashings of martini shaken not stirred obviously.

See Leigh is having some exchanges with a "fan" on Twitter tonight. He retweeted someone saying he'll be away in the summer.

He's clearly frustrated and venting his anger, but does anyone actually know what's going on behind the scenes? And do we think he will still be here next season?

He never actually said he was leaving. Think the fan giving him abuse is way out of line.

I prefer that to the current jersey kev, but not quite fitting enough to mark Lisboa '67 for me. Too much sponsorship.

{Ed007's Note - Not got enough hoops on it for me. I think our strip should always have 6 (I better be right there lol) green hoops on it as a reminder of Lisbon.}

They are a tad thick Ed agree there, I just really don't like the current one. Have to say I've been a bit let down by NB so far.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - That pink thing is (swear) terrible! I do think the strips have a better feel about them under NB than some of the tops Nike released, as my mam would say, you could spit peas through them.}

They're all overpriced T-Shirts for me. I'm a right old codger for my age. Last seasons away kit was really good mind. You're right there though the pink thingy is abismal. There's kitsch, then there's criminal. The away kits should be the daring ones, the hoops should be simple and classy, though I realise they have to come up with something a bit different in order to sell the next one.

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - The away strip should always be a bumble bee colours or black/gold.}

I agree the hoops aren't similar enough to be a proper tribute but something along those lines wouldn't go amiss. Although would they not have done that this season instead of next?

Perhaps Kev. Six and two three's though given the timing of the anniversary. Even if NB came up with something special as a one off I'd even buy it. Like the 125th anniversary one we had resembling our original white jersey with the cross, I think we might have worn it like once in a game, if at all?

They should get a O Neills sport to make them. Made to withstand the hussle and bustle of GAA . The Offaly jersey would be an ideal away jersey :-) and Carlow third strip just for the craic .

Everytime i see footage or a photo of the Lisbon Lions it makes me want our home kit to be exactly the same as the 67 one. Its beautiful when simple no flashy designs just the famous Hoops with plain white shorts and socks can't beat that look.

I've said that for years now Stan, only thing is the sponsors wouldn't be to chuffed about no logo on view.

I'd have thought that a commemorative strip would have been released for the 50th anniversary.

Agree0 Disagree0

Id accept sponsorship logo no problem as long as the kit was as simplified as possible. Not interested in different shades of green throughout the hoops or stupid collars. A tight fighting round white colour suits it best in my opinion and looks good against the white shorts and socks. The classic look.

Agree bhoys. The final was the 25th May, I know that much. That's thereabouts the last game of the season, so hopefully NB have something lined up. Like the Nike/ Tennents one a few year back would be nice, but one better. Would be great to have NB in white on a white hoop, and a really small Magners label below the club crest, similarly in white matching the hoop. I can't see NB or Magners taking their names off completely. No commemorative wreath around the crest or anything. Just so from a few yards away it just looks like a nice fitted, simple green and white hoops.

I've uploaded a concept kit that somebody posted online. Hopefully it will be up soon on the Celtic Sightings page.

NB have a few pretty simple kit designs with plain logo matching kit colour, but mind there is also dafabet and a doubt the 2 sponsors would be too happy reducing the size or even removing their logo knowing the amount of kits a commemorative one would sell, heres hoping though.

*Dafabet, that's what I meant, not Magners 😅.

I thought last two games and victories against Motherwell and Hamilton were a tad flat but last night against ICtT one thought there was a bit of a zip about the game again as their was earlier in the season. Just in time for the glorious 12th one hopes! 🍀PS: thought GMS looked up for it and did well-would love to see the bhoy come good.
