    Well there you go Pep Guardiola believes Manchester City have to be “ quicker and smarter” in the transfer market Maybe not so easy after all

    Lenny leaves Hibs..

    Don’t suppose it’s true that he is being lined for the sevco job when Gerrard gets sacked tomorrow? Probably just a rumour......

    MSM Sevco marque signings

    I think it would be a positive step if we did not compare ourselves to sevco in the transfer market or in any other way. Why bother with them? In fact I would like to see them mentioned only in the way we are mentioning Hamilton now ie as tomorrow’s opponents, analysis of result and so on...

    RUNNERS UP

    Just as a matter of interest ( to me mainly) I went to school with Jim Clarke, Steve’s nephew. Like Lou Macari, Jim was in the year below me and both signed for Celtic around the same time. Believe Jim’s career was badly affected by a leg break a year or two later ironically enough when he...

    No protection from MIB

    Millsy, I certainly take your point about inconsistency in the conspiracy. And you are right that I have seen many injustices that could only have been the result of anti- Celtic prejudice. Unlike your Dad I thought Mowat was not so bad when compared in that era to Tiny Wharton and , of course...

    No protection from MIB

    And yet last night Celtic won 4 0 including one penalty while sevco lost 2 1 when a nice little penalty would have saved their night. This is the most subtle conspiracy I have ever seen

    Defoe loan deal

    Come December, to stop 9 in a row the plan is that the first team squad will throw their winter fuel allowances into the transfer pot to pay for a 46 year old to move up from their youth squad

    EL Alfredo...moonbeams again or worth his weight in mud?

    Be careful what you wish for! VAR already shown to leave some incidents undecided. Also, it works both ways. Sinclair’s goal on Saturday would have stood but so would two Morelos goals in earlier games. I notice Aberdeen and Hibs fans on social media looking forward to VAR as they think it will...

    BBC Licence fee

    Millsy, I know many people share your view. For me, I have watched their referendum coverage, their Brexit coverage and down through the years their coverage of football, Scottish and English. In general I think they do an excellent impartial job, much superior to any other media organisation. I...

    BBC Licence fee

    I have been to Israel for work three times and on a Holy Land pilgrimage once so no expert Benignus. But I have listened there to Israeli Jews, Israeli Christians and Palestinians.The Israelis of all political persuasions are totally convinced that the BBC is biased towards the Palestinians. As...

    BBC Licence fee

    In my opinion the BBC remains the best impartial broadcaster for Scotland and for the whole UK and the licence fee is the best bargain in the country. The old defence is a bit of a cliche but still true ie if all sides are attacking the BBC then it must be doing its impartial job well Needs to...

    Scottish media and our Board.

    I think the one thing you must not do is ban the press or individual reporters. It is the wrong thing to do for a start because it is an attack on free speech It is not very clever either because it ensures you turn all the media against you even the fair minded ones and they do exist

    Transfer Rumours

    Long time ago I joined the rest of the fans in the Jungle moaning about a new left back replacing our beloved Jim Kennedy. We gave pelters to another fella brought in to play in a sort of right wing/ midfield role We went mad at another young guy on the left wing. Week after week we moaned and...
