A couple of years ago you posted the primary school you attended. Unless there are two schools with the same name in the Greater Glasgow area it is in that borough. And here was I thinking that you lived in Ferguslie Park :-) I mistakenly thought that explained your demeanour.

Can you show me the post please.

I could be wrong, but probably the part where you said "Go back to where you come from".

Can you guys tell us a little more about the geography of Scotland? Sounds fascinating. What is the highest mountain? Deepest lake?  And most importantly does Ange still by his gyros from McTassos at Glasgow's Fort?

A Giro is an unemployment cheque mainly handed out to Celtic fans.

Lame. He said gyro, not Giro.

"gyro, a Greek dish of roasted meat served in a pita, usually with tomato, onion, and tzatziki, a cold, creamy sauce made from yogurt, cucumber, garlic, and various spices. "

and to rebut your sectarian bias

"Examination of economic activity data showed that although unemployment rates were higher among Catholics than those affiliated with the Church of Scotland, they were in line with the Scottish average"

So not "mainly handed out to Celtic fans"

My bad.

My memory failed me as to the school name. I was wrong, you actually posted Lochgoin.

There was no racist connotation in that.

Ange has indicated that unless something extraordinary comes up there will be no more signings this window. I would have thought a couple of defenders were still necessary?

You just google this up without actually knowing, don't you ?

In case you are not aware, we don't really do LAKES in Scotland , but it is Loch Ness and the highest mountain is Ben Nevis, about the height of a speed hump in the Himalayas.

Wrong again.

You sure about that ? ( First sentence )

If Celtic fans are handed out a gyros every day then sign me up immediately :) 

Och aye, but a rose is just as sweet by any other name mate :)

Stuart McLaren has joined  Ange at Celtic as  the under 18's manager.

Solid 2-0 win for Celtic first game back after the winter break and while I have only seen the highlights, various media and FB fan sites saying two of the new signings, Maeda and Hatate, played well.  Maeda scored and Hatate was the BBC man of the match. Celtic were lucky not to be 0-1 down early when a Hibs player missed at the back post with an open goal but other than that apparently were in control for the rest of the match. Having two of his new signings play well in their first outing is good for Ange’s reputation. 

Lets go Bhoys!! Scott Brown giving it to the Zombies this morning! Gap is down to four points.

Out of interest what was the 1st to 2nd gap this time last year? 

21 points . Tims had three games in hand though. They had 45 points from 21 games, 3 points fewer than this season despite losing less matches.

Celtic signed Matt O’Riley from League One MK Dons. Highlights remind me a bit of Rogic. Tall attacking midfielder with an impressive eye for a pass. A very handy acquisition to the squad, and having just played 90mins against Portsmouth on Sunday will be ready to go if needed. Wouldn’t be surprised to see him start in the weekend cup match to give Rogic a rest. 

Ange building a nice squad where everyone will be vying for a start. Good stuff.

1-2 away win for Ange’s Celtic against Hearts. Good game, watched it on Kayo. Again, a bit of luck during the match, especially with Hearts missed penalty, but still, given they’ve had no luck with injuries it all evens out. Hatate’s goal was a screamer from 30 odd metres, people should go and find it. Absolutely drilled it with mongrel force. Just the second match for Hatate and first for O’Riley in midfield, with McGregor out and Rogic away on international duty, so a good result with a new midfield pairing. And Celtic showed a bit of resilience in the second half too once Heart came out fighting and leg chopping. Some positive signs. 

It was a great first half but didn't expect it to go so bad in the second. Lucky to get the 3 points. It felt like they ran out of legs in the middle - couldn't keep the ball for long periods. I'm looking forward to the Rangers game. Hopefully a win to close the gap.

I listen to the “A Celtic State of Mind” podcast and they deconstructed the second half quite well. It’s true they ran out of legs, again, but in part that’s because they are once again integrating new players (Hatate and O’Riley) and have several returning from long term injury (Forrest, Jota and Giakoumakis), so that’s five players who can’t press for 90mins right now. Indeed, it’s possible this team won’t be able to press for 90 mins until next season.
The Rangers game will be a cracker and I just hope it isn’t decided by more poor refereeing. The standard of refereeing in Scotland is awful, and the Scottish pundits say as much themselves, as it allows far too much butchery. Some even speculate it will keep some good ball players away, as they just wouldn’t want to risk career ending injury under dinosaur refereeing.

Well we just had Australia day or invasion day recently didn't we?

Gap is down to two. See you all on Thursday morning.

Are the Japanese and rogic going to play? I saw their squad was very depleted

They might be available but I can't see them starting. At best, they'll arrive 24 hours before the game.

Nice.
