Garngad the garden of God<laugh><laugh> more like compost corner. Dev's totally right Mindy each side is equally as idiotic as the other.

The garden of God

From Donegal and from Sligo,
From Kerry and from County Cork,
Irish men and Irish women
Made the Garngad, the Garden of God.

Where the flag of Ireland flourishes
Where the Celtic are prayed to at night,
Children of the Garngad,
Are born wearing, the green & white.

With hymns of Ireland echoing
Of heroes who are long gone,
It is in the Garden of God, were our children are raised
On Celtic and Irish songs.

They won't like this...

Imran Ahmed.....

He arrived with Charles Green, who led a consortium which purchased the club's assets following administration and liquidation.
That asset purchase in 2012 has been the focus of a police investigation.
Earlier this month, four men appeared in court to face charges over the alleged fraudulent acquisition of the assets.
They were 62-year-old Mr Green and 44-year-old Craig Whyte, who had bought the club from former owner Sir David Murray in 2011 and was at the helm during its financial collapse the following year.
Two other insolvency practitioners were also charged over the deal.
They were David Whitehouse, 50, and Paul Clark, 51, who worked for Duff and Phelps and acted as joint administrators for Rangers during the 2012 insolvency.
Following the court appearances, Mr Ahmad emailed the BBC to say that his legal representatives had contacted the Crown Office in a bid to ascertain if he would face any charges.
He said he was initially prepared to return to the UK from overseas, where he has been working.
'Safe passage'
Mr Ahmad said: "I was promised a letter by the Crown...by close of business 4 September 2015 which would also confirm that I would not be arrested at UK border control or by Police Scotland and could attend court on the 29 September 2015 to answer the warrant petition which I wanted to fully cooperate with."
Mr Ahmad continued: "A few days ago, the Crown reneged on their promise to provide me with a safe passage letter.
"My legal team and I have grave concerns about a defendant in this case being able to receive a fair trial anywhere in Scotland let alone Glasgow.
"Every social media site in Scotland has presumed all the defendants to be guilty before a trial has even taken place or for that matter before individuals have even been indicted."
Mr Ahmad said that he had recently "received death threats by phone and online".
He described Rangers fans as "a tribe", adding: "What the rest of the world will never understand unless they experience it first hand is that Rangers Football Club is a religion, in itself, built on centuries of religious bigotry."
The former director also accused Police Scotland of being "an establishment institution which itself is deeply rooted and immersed in Rangers Football Club's history for well over 140 years".
Mr Ahmad said: "I firmly believe Police Scotland have their own agenda and are deeply emotionally connected to Rangers Football Club. In my view Police Scotland have a clear conflict of interest."
He added: "I have decided not to attend the Crown's 'invite' warrant on the 29 September 2015 and will remain overseas until the trial is over when I will return to the UK."

OH how they had fun...

The jelly and ice cream, the apocalypse banners and the days joyously spent whiled away going through the fine detail of contract law and legal precedent. It was the best of times.

I speak not of genuine Celtic fans but of the often borderline crazed Sevco obsessed.

This new breed spew forth the demented ramblings of fan bloggers as ‘fact’, crusade against ‘institutionalised bias’ and presumably spend their days throwing darts at pictures of the ‘glib and shameless liar’ (zzzzzz) Dave King.

Rangers chairman Dave King


You can find one by simply typing in any of the following key-words into a Twitter search: SMSM (Scottish mainstream media), lamb (of the succulent variety) and radar (‘off the’ rather than ‘on the’).

While happy to satirise Rangers fans as zombies they seem less keen to examine their own club’s position and the irony of using such wording in their position. As they monotonously repeat the same dull, unimaginative jibes and slavishly follow their discredited sources, many have shown a zombie like inability to process what is currently happening at Parkhead.

Any overdue analysis should begin at the manager’s office where a talented self-publicist and purveyor of coaching buzzwords resides in place of a coach. It’s been clear to those of us without rotting matter for brains that Mark Warburton isn’t the one extracting the urine at an Old Firm club.

In Ronny Delia you have a manager clearly out of his depth. His record, in context of relative-sized competition is abysmal and it can be measured easily: find me a Rangers fan who doesn’t desperately want him to stay!

Kenny Shiels


To be fair to the Norwegian Kenny Shiels, he has managed to take Celtic back to their rightful position as the second club in Scotland, just a season earlier than many of us expected!

The fans have only themselves to blame if Aberdeen do what would have been considered previously unthinkable and take the title. So many have spent so long obsessing about all things Rangers, they have missed the opportunity to analyse a deep malaise that has been setting in over YEARS.

Celtic chief executive Peter Lawwell


Peter Lawwell is now every bit as powerful as Sir David Murray was in the 1990s. Entrenched at the SFA and with huge influence within the SPFL he dominates the Scottish scene in a way that is perfectly illustrated by his latest transfer.

Does anyone believe for a minute that Celtic have paid £5.5million for the lad Simunovic?

Maybe after ALL the clauses are met and IF they sell him for £20m but in the here and now?

It’s the same with Van Djik, Celtic can say what they want for a fee, safe in the knowledge it’s officially undisclosed. Of course, with van Djik there was a sell-on fee agreed with previous clubs. Of the £13m, how much goes to Celtic right away?

It certainly suits Lawwell to really juice these figures as Celtic fans will see the £13m as a good price and are placated by the idea of a multi-million pound replacement. It’s not like anyone has seen the lad play to judge his value! It’s PR and spin right from the Murray playbook.

Meanwhile, Parkhead is half empty every other Saturday, the club has posted a multi-million pound loss with barely any analysis and Aberdeen are stronger than they have been for 20 years.

Don’t expect analysis about any of this from a group of fundamentalists who refuse to see the woods for the trees. Their attitude is best summed up by a saying straight from their own infamous phrase-book; ‘sweep, sweep’.

I for one am glad they are boycotting the game. These abysmal gamers sit for hours completely addicted; deprived of sleep, forgetting sometimes even to eat, unwashed and neglecting even the most basic hygiene requirements.<whistle>

For the sake of 1300 sales, EA are hardly likely to cave in and set their coders working overtime.

They could simply add it as downloadable content. Who cares? The whole FIFA franchise is a massive rip off anyway.

Unfortunately we live in the era of the malcontent where everyone is offended at the smallest, imagined slight. People actually think they have rights and these rights are listened to and acted upon. Aye right<laugh> Wur pure empowered by the way cuz wur oanline. The greater offended British society would speak more sense if they were on bleedin' lines.
