That this Houserecognises the outstanding achievements of Walter Smith, recently retired manager of Glasgow Rangers FC, having guided the club to a Scottish Premier League 54th league title which was the third consecutive triumph at a time when the club's future was uncertain due to takeover speculation, and when the club had very scarce resources which itself led to a very small playing squad; and expresses hope that steps have already been taken to ensure that Mr Smith, who has been widely acknowledged by numerous football professionals on and off the pitch as being one of the most successful Scottish football managers in the past 50 years, will be suitably recognised in the forthcoming honours announcements.

Arise Sir Walter Smith?
 
There seems to be a disproportionate number of Northern Irish MPs on the list backing this motion. Why would that be? :bandit:

P.S. What's the difference between Neil Lennon and Walter Smith?

Lennon moans but Walt Disney. <cracker>
 
most successful? if you are on about bjk, they got to a final on the toss of a coin and won with an offside goal against an under 19 inter team ffs, still using that comfort blanket are you loser?

hey its MPs we're talking about.

celtic minded labour party ones at that.

would they not be better feeling tarnished by association to a party that gave us the gulf war and a level of debt my grankids will be struggling to pay off?

wouldnt know shame if walked up and hooked them.
 
...and when the club had very scarce resources which itself led to a very small playing squad...

Did the club really have scarce resources? How much money has he spent since 2007? Around the £35 million mark? He's probably spent as much money as Celtic have in the same amount of time.

Sir Walter?

My arse.

Ooh.
 
Oooh you're a right wee bitter wan aint cha?

How does that make me bitter? He's won plenty of things in the SPL granted but all this tripe about how he's had no funds to do it is beyond a joke. He hasn't done enough to merit a knighthood. Fergie didn't get his until he won the Champions League.
 
Mantis accept that SIR Walter deserves it just for the list of Celtic bosses he has seen off wait for it................Billy McNeil, Liam Brady, Lou Macari, Tommy Burns, Gordon Strachan, Tony Mowbray and destroyed Neil Lemmon in his last year.

Was it not an SNP MSP who got sent a bomb for wearing a Celtic top?

Maybe all the MSPs are pro-Celtic and anti-Rangers?
