As my daughter would say, What the actual fuck? That certainly took everybody by surprise and I have to admit that I got things seriously wrong. Who’d have thought that Rodgers would just bugger off like that, right on the cusp of an historic treble treble? It’s a right kick in the baw-sack, worthy of […]

According to some folk, Brendan Rodgers is off to Leicester in the summer, while others are saying that he’s going as soon as he’s packed his bags. It’s going to be a tough decision. Does he stay, achieve the Ten and beyond and become a living legend, feted as a god by Celtic supporters worldwide, […]

Der Fuhrer and I were watching The Chase and one of the celebrities on the team was Harry Redknapp. Der Fuhrer didn’t like the look of him and asked me about him. Not following English football, I had to Google him. I’d heard of him, of course, but knew nothing about him. A quick glance […]

It’s not often that sectarian bigotry is used as a squirrel but, after Wednesday’s disgraceful match at Ibrox, that’s what’s being done. It allows Celtic to be dragged into things, with revolting individuals crawling out to blame Catholic schools. Ordinarily, the bile poured out by the Hun hordes is ignored, so what’s different this time? […]

When somebody’s given a column to write in a newspaper, or what passes for a newspaper in Scotland, they’re entitled to point out things that they see as detrimental to football or society at large. Kris Boyd is entitled to rant and rave about a coin being thrown at him, but that’s as far as […]

Can we expect another statement from Neo-Gers about Steven McLean, the referee of yesterday’s game at Ibrox? After all, it only cost six thousand quid to ensure that Willie Collum never got to take charge of any of their matches again. A no-score draw is something that’s simply not allowed to happen at Ibrox. Why […]

Many moons ago, when my da worked at Govan Shipbuilders, the word went round that everybody should watch themselves on the way home. It was in the days when nobody needed a bank account because you actually got handed a pay-packet at the end of each week. It was the start of the Christmas holidays, […]

Back in my teaching days, I usually had at least one problem child in my class. There were children with ADD or ADHD, who were usually sorted out with appropriate medication. I also had a couple of kids that were borderline autistic, who found mainstream school extremely difficult. Then there were the ones with problems […]

We all guessed that Brother Boabby would be doing his team a favour or two and, of course, we were right. I listened to the first half on Radio Scotland and El Guffalo was fouling everybody left, right and centre. But, here was Gordon Smith to explain why he hadn’t been booked. Christ, I thought […]

Everybody remembers that bit in Braveheart where all the Scots bend over and lift their kilts to show the English their bare arses. That’s what the weekend there was all about; a big GIRFUY to Celtic and anybody else that thinks favouritism, bias and downright cheating need to be expunged from our game. It was […]
