Been mates with the same group since my teens, 35 years -ish. I've just found out that I'm out of the gang. They won't take my calls/Whatsapp msgs. I needed them badly tonight but no answer etc. fuck 'em!
So to clarify, I'm Irish, raised Catholic (now atheist) and a proud Zionist
Good morning @StRochsJuniors, Cannon Edward Lawton formed our club 126 years ago for our community. As custodians of the club you need to serve the community.We are on your doorstep doing community work for over 2 years and havent had as much as a retweet from you
Why?

@deejaypb@weeseabee It’s so funny how some folk get upset by a group looking after themselves.
They never claimed to be speaking on behalf of anyone bar themselves nor have they suggested they are better.
The fact is, Celtic backed the jungle Bhoys cos the atmosphere was lacking, then the gb came..
@GerryKeogh_ Thank fuck indeed 😆😆. It was only a matter of 2 seasons after, with the atmosphere dying, the jungle Bhoys were started, which ultimately led to the GB. Our misty eyed memories
Celtic park is a lesser place without them
Coincidentally, in 2003 we didn’t have DD as our “owner”
Live tonight with @Joellercoaster@AupaCeltic and special guest Jim Kerr (not that one) from the Cavendish 7-1 CSC @jfkcfc1963 Links posted here. Hail Hail 🍀
🎙️ I joined Jonathan Sutherland on BBC Radio Scotland this morning to chat about Celtic.
🗣️ We discussed the deep and widening schism that exists between Celtic’s board and the club’s supporters.
📺 You can catch up on the episode from 2:48 here: https://t.co/GnT3Qc49Rp
We had Paul Quigley from the @CFC_Collective on the show this week to talk about the recent actions of the collective as well as explaining how we have got to this point.

Say an aging billionaire keels over tomorrow, and his shares in a football club (which allows him control despite being not a high majority).
An his dick of a son gains the shares, would the special dispensation follow the share exchange, or would that have to be sought?
Security cameras at an animal shelter captured a truly tender moment: seeing the little dog looking frightened, a gentle giant of a Saint Bernard walked over and lay down right beside him, as if simply wanting to be there to help him feel safe. 🐶💓
In May we published The Celtic Paradox. Finding one said Celtic's revenue swings by £30m to £50m a year on the Champions League alone, and that the board had built nothing to absorb it.
This week @CelticFC plc published its accounts.
- Revenue: £111.0m, down from £143.6m. A fall of £32.6m.
- Result: a £4.8m loss after tax, from a £33.9m profit a year earlier.
- Cash: £66.4m, down £10.9m.
- Player trading profit: £16.0m, down from £31.5m.
The fall landed inside the range we set out five months ago. That was not foresight. It was arithmetic anyone with an annual report could do. Which is the point: if supporters could see it coming, the board could too.
A board that knows a £30m swing arrives every year has two jobs. Reduce the dependence on one competition, and publish a plan that shows shareholders how.
Celtic plc has never published a multi-year strategic plan. Not once in its life as a public company. The chair is interim. Several non-executives have served far beyond the nine years the UK Corporate Governance Code treats as the limit of independence.
A title was won. This is not about the dressing room. It is about how the company is run.
The brand is European. The revenue rides on one draw. The boardroom does not change. That is the Celtic Paradox, and this year's accounts are it in numbers.
At the AGM, shareholders are entitled to ask:
What is the plan to earn money that does not depend on the Champions League?
When will the board publish it, and who is accountable for delivering it?
If you hold Celtic shares, you can ask too.
