"You've no right to be angry with John Collins". SPFL, season 2015/2016

Also, not sure he was ever been a been to now be a hasbeen. Anyway, he's crap and this is a really bad idea.

I can't even grammatically construct a sentence containing made-up grammar, that's how cross I am about this.

I have never heard of this guy but his stats don't look good.

Brighton signed him off that "win a player for your club off a can of Coke" deal, so he was a wee bit high-profile for a white. He's a bit of tit, by all accounts.

For a while. I have completely forgotten how to type.

he also played for turkey in the euros in 2008 and got a lot of attention at that time due to the fact that he's english

definitely remember him being ref'd on ilx for a while, especially wrt his name, when he plays for turkey they call him colin kazim kazim

despite the fact that kazim was merely supposed to be his middle name, mistakenly registered as the first part of an erroneously double-barreled surname.

Sounds a lovely chap though, eh?

In other news, this made me smile:

I can't even.

I mean.

Fuckin

Look at this shite. Scotland's top two teams. Not a fucking player between them.

I thankfully never saw a second of the game, but I phoned my dad when I saw the score and my mum wouldn't let me speak to him because he'd only just got his heart rate and blood pressure back to an acceptable level (he'd turned off before the end and didn't know we'd scored, though I suspect my mum going "oh did it finish 2-1, that's not as bad" probably set him back off again).

I can't even summon enthusiasm for a proper moan. I just hate this and want it to stop. Manager, board, players, scouts, everyone. Just go away.

"Are you shitting me? I won a fuckin watch when they gave me this job!" he said.

If it wasn't for Leigh Griffiths I couldn't watch this shower of shit.

My post-match chat with my old man was basically "Do you have anything to say?" "No" "Me neither"

Was depressing as all fuck yesterday catching five minutes of the Southampton game. What I wouldn't give for a Wanyama or a van Dijk right now. Or even some sensible use of the money we got for them.

SFA fail piss up in brewery test once again.

hundred and thirty odd years rigging it and they still fuck up the tombola

Can't wait till we get Liam Henderson back from Hibs to bolster the midfield...

Yeah, it's some stockpile.

First home league win for Saints since the start of November, first league win overall since the start of December. Not a pretty game but at least we got something. Been brutal recently.

Saints almost salvaged my coupon. Hearts contriving to lose to the worst United team in decades beat me.

Celtic's defence not being as crap as I think they are did for me.

best beloved bearded mercurial Hellenic "striker" georgios samaras is moving to the nasl - the second tier of north american "soccer" - specifically an expansion team called Rayo OKC, owned by the owner of Rayo Vallecano

I didn't realise how hard he tried for us until I watched the shower of meh fucks we have now.

bring him home

been getting progressively estranged from the actual active following of celtic - i.e. bothering to watch the games or at least the highlights - for a while now. i check all the scores, read all the match reports, am on KDS every day etc. but with the time difference im dealing with im not ruining my early mornings on the weekend for the deila bus

the one game I was able to attend this year we did win 6-0 tho #talisman

I'm getting to a point where I'm not even arsed if I miss the highlights.

the inevitability of the promotion of rangers and the return next season to the eternal "old firm" soap opera really leaves me with a feeling of bored dread.

i mean - ignoring for now the fact that celtic have contrived through consistent downsizing to create a title race with aberdeen this season - a celtic dominated spfl for perpetuity frankly isn't that exciting either, but a few years away from the regular glasgow derbies has let me reflect on how i really don't need that kind of animosity in my life.

It's hard to admit but the most interesting thing in Scottish football for ten years is Rangers running out of other people's money.

You and me both, and I don't even have the time difference excuse.

... actually you and me both and thousands of others tbh

astonishes me whenever i return to scotland and find that people still care about this stuff

I'm meeting my mum for lunch today. Long gone are the days when I'd have insisted on a pub with a telly or rearranged for another day.

#bringbackSamaras

tbf to, errrrrrr, me, one of my problems is I used to know a whole lot of Celtic fans in London, but now I don't know a single one (where have you hidden them?)

I am watching Thistle v Celtic. It's brutal.

I saw the last 20 minutes. That was tremendously brutal.

Is Alex Schalk wearing a sports bra?

I'm totally assuming full Highlander bragging rights for cup wins over the last twelve months, even though I really hate Caley Thistle so much that I was actively supporting Falkirk. So, aye, well done Ross County. You made my old man very happy indeed. Though any more trophy wins and they might take down the photo of my him with the North of Scotland Cup that apparently still lurks within whatever they're calling Victoria Park these days.

Jackson Irvine's hair, though. Seriously. That's not a good look for Easter Ross where even mullets and stonewashed denim are probably looked at with a degree of envy.

"All the emotions, it was blank, all black, the fans were screaming."

Right cheery way to describe a cup winning goal.

Goth.

"fucking yas"

Griffiths is playing poorly tonight. The net effect on the team is to render it completely unwatchable.

Ronny following that proud Celtic traditional of baffling full back decisions. Currently got Scott Brown at right-back in order to somehow play with two forwards. Well, one forward, plus whatever Colin Kazim-Richards is.

oh dear

out of the Gordon Strachan playbook

This post from me from August:

anticipating the title-race - and i don't think it's wrong to use that term, aberdeen spent most of last season within striking distance, although they were ultimately comfortably bested - being much less close this year. deila's been around for a wee bit now, and should be able to set-up a team to grind out the results, rack up the points.

Nostradamus am urnae.

That was utter dreck. Scott Brown seems to have gotten worse with the addition of hair. Someone scalp him pronto. Oh, and Deila out, obv

sad day when youre delighted that hearts defeat aberdeen and give you some breathing space in the run-in. win the morra and celtic are 8 points ahead, with what, 5 games left? albeit with one against the dons.
