P.S. dudes who minuted the Association/Police meeting - the Celtic Symphony doesn't have add ons. So is singing the actual lyrics OK now then?

Celtic occasionally play a version with "up the Celts" - I assume "up the RA" is being counted as alternative/add-on lyrics. On Wednesday they sang neither - preferring to use Georgios Samaras as a handy rhyming substitute.

Is this image more or less clear cut than the goal line incident?

referee Collum clearly unsighted by looking the right way

Aye, I know that, but the actual original version (video recorded at Celtic Park btw) is Ooh Ah Up The Ra. Yer man from the polis said no add-ons, the minutes don't show anyone challenging, so let's see how that stands up next time Celtic fans get done for singing it.

Also, Collum's eyes are in the back of his head, so how can he be expected to see stuff in front of him?

that's what I was getting at

Clarifying in case anyone who isn't us passes by :-)

Happy New Year, Scottish football peeps. Only An Excuse was totally pish, wasn't it?

Never saw it, but that'll save me t0rr3nting it.

couldn't hear most of it due to overexcited children, but what i did hear was pretty pish. happy new year!

Denis Law and Frank MacAvennie still getting an airing, ffs. No jokes.

Only an Excuse has been pish since the early 90s. I can only assume Jonathan Watson has some incriminating photos of the controller of BBC Scotland.

Aye, not been funny since it came off the radio?

Was ok when Tony Roper was still involved. Wasn't Alistair McGowan involved for a bit after that, so at least there was someone who could do impressions rather than having to start every sketch with 'hi, I'm Jim Spence' or similar exposition? They need to get that Paul Reid guy involved, also some people who can write jokes.

Anyway, that's the transfer window slammed open, so expect exciting 'Sandaza/Fat Gaz/Novo/Boydichenko to Rangers' type pish for the next month before it slams shut with no-one signing anyone because Scottish football is shit and we're all doomed.

Happy new year! I have digitally taped the hogmanay "comedy" but no watched it yet.
I am thinking about not drinking for the game this afternoon. My liver's beginning to struggle with the demand.

Talking of windows slamming open - Jelavic not selected for Rangers today.
Novo and Boyd back at Ibrox would surely be pure lolz.

Also Healy starts o_O - must have made a hero of himself with that assault on James Forest. Just needed to catch the manager's eye, and wee James's kneecap.
