Billy the G@r was walking his dog one day, when he spots an old lamp. He bends down to pick it up, and starts to rub it to clean it.
Suddenly, a genie appears and says "I am the cut price genie. I grant but one wish"
Billy thinks for a while and then says "Make my dog, 'Sally' win Crufts"
The genie looks at Sally and says "Don't be stupid, look at the thing. It's mangy and bald, its got fleas, its got a bit missing from one ear, it limps and it smells. I might be a genie, but I'm not a feckin miracle worker"
"Alright then", says Billy " Make Rangers win the League this year"
The genie stops for a moment, then says "Lets have another look at that dog again?" Lol, another belter!
..........Miko

Is it not a bit silly Mikhailichenko that you would post a joke with a punchline like that considering we have won the league the last 3 years on the trot?? You are a tad thick but everyone on both pages knows that! Ger54 {Ed007's Note - I'd say that name you gave Miko proves the silly one in it all, grow up.}

Hi ed. How u keeping? What about lenny for the northern Ireland job along side the Celtic job? Haha. Kyle laughatme will be remembered in the football world for faking injury and getting Charlie send off. The word tramp comes to mind. Bigirishmac {Ed007's Note - I'm doing well thanks BIM mate.}

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Or the hat trick on the great last day of last season. jmgers {Ed007's Note - You do know that Hooper has only scored 8 less goals for CFC than Kylie has for Rangers? This is Hooper's second season in Scotland and Kylie's fourth. Laugherty has 35 goals in 124 games, Hooper has 27 in 48 games. Hooper is also a year younger and cost less money.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Whits hooper got to do with it i was giving a reply to the op and there you go getting all offended ed
jmgers {Ed007's Note - It is a continuation of a thread that has been running all day, I am not offended in any way. You go and ask any fan of another team what they remember of Laugherty and there won't be many that say a hat trick from the last game of last season. It's hardly memorable apart from with Rangers fans so your answer was void anyway. Even to the point that in his 4 years at the club that is his most memorable thing he has done? You sure waited long enough for him to do anything memorable, the rest of Scottish football remember him cheating.}

Agree0 Disagree0

And Hooper's s**te ed, accept it, get over it. Celtic are the 3rd force. Dry your eyes mate and stop sounding so bitter. {Ed007's Note - If he is s**te then what does that make Laugherty? The only one sounding bitter is you, but I wouldn't expect anything less, so wipe your chin and put your crayons away for the night, there's a good boy.}

Agree0 Disagree0

So when he took a dive against the mighty aberdeen is a bigger deal tthan scoring that hat trick come on ed play the game
jmgers {Ed007's Note - What is more remembered throughout Scottish football? In England if you mention his name that is what he is associated with.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Ed i dont care what people in england think of him what matters up here is winning the title and the players who contribute in doing so Lafferty has done that and if you want to bring hooper in to it he hasn't
jmgers {Ed007's Note - YAAAWWWNN. If you read back about the what was said about Kylie today you will see how petty that you bringing up the league is. We were discussing his ability, please try to keep up before commenting with the same old tired stuff. By the way Hooper is playing in Europe this year, is Laugherty?}

Agree0 Disagree0

So you speak for the whole of England now. You keep comparing Hooper to Lafferty. You seem to think this boy Hooper is some kind of magician. By the way you put yourself accross ed i take it you think Hooper is Sceptic's best striker?? If so compare him to Rangers best striker, the one and only Nikica Jelavic. No comparison is there, Jelavic is soooo much better than Hooper in every way. {Ed007's Note - I do speak to people from England on a daily basis. Wasn't the one and only Chesney Hawkes? Imagine even using that in a sentence LMAO. Have you ever thought about going into TV presenting, your cheesiness would be a winner with people who remember 80s variety shows.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Sorry for boring you with anything positive about rangers or our players ed i was just responding to the op and i wont mention winning the league again as that clearly bores you im away to do a nightshift now but next time i post i will mention the tax case or something riviting like that to help keep you awake ed goodnight
jmgers {Ed007's Note - Missing you already ;-)

Agree0 Disagree0

Well ed would it be fair to suggest that a certain mr lennon would be remembered for the same thing? Re: juanjo at pittodrie or has that escaped your memory? {Ed007's Note - What? Are you even attempting to be serious? Is that the most memorable thing NL has ever done in Scottish football? For God's sake how boring and sad are some people? With the Rangers fans perverse infatuation with NL you probably have a list of things, PLEASE don't post it, you are boring us enough already. Calm down and take a deep breath, we all know how excited Rangers fans get thinking about him, it is verging on the macabre. I take it you are one of his devoted followers that hates him more than you actually love Rangers? Is it a jealousy thing? If we can't have him nobody will??}

Agree0 Disagree0

What was wrong with the 1980's or Chesney Hawkes?? Alright i'll give you the Chesney Hawks one lol. {Ed007's Note - I heard his mole left him and set out on it's own, that is where that munter Biffa Cole came from.}

Agree0 Disagree1

Jealous? behave yourself ed i was only pointing out the fact that you said lafferty was mostly remembered for (in your own words) "cheating" i was asking if thats how you see him then you must remember neil lennon doing the exact same thing and therefor must hold him in the same regard. as to your rant about me hating your manager then i think you have to take a deep breath and calm down {Ed007's Note - I am perfectly calm. If that is the most memorable thing that NL has done in your eyes then I pity you. Of course I remember it, but it is nowhere near the first thing that comes into anyone's mind when asked about him.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Ed neil lennon will be remembered for many shamefull acts look back on his celtic career you cant deny it and that does not include his spell as manager

Agree0 Disagree0

Just a wee note on the Kyle Lafferty debate. On his day he is unplayable, fast, strong, quick feet for a big lad, good in the air and works his socks off. Other time's though you would think the guy never seen a football before. Seems to be adding consistency to his game now though. {Ed007's Note - You can be consistently bad as well so technically he has been consistent for years.}

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Consistently firing the goals to win Gers the title. I reckon he'll take a couple off Sceptic in the next OF game. Sweden's answer to Bert Konterman aka Majstorovic will be s**tting bricks at facing big Laffs & Jelavic.

Good day, ed
Would you mind clearing up my befuddled old head please ed ?
My one and only time at Celtic Park in the 89 Benefit Game ; was the old Jungle the terrace facing the Main Stand ie not behind the goals ?
The Real KB {Ed007's Note - Yeah mate, it was.}

Believable1 Unbelievable1

Yeah we did ask one lad and that's what I remembered he said. We were upper right behind goal. Facing Main Stand to left, Jungle to right. What end was / is that called ?
The Real KB {Ed007's Note - The Lisbon Lions Stand or 'The Rangers End' KB.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Prefer the former. Lol.
Ta very much mate. Wish I'd had a mobile phone camera that day. Lol !

Dear Ed, just heard on news that the two thugs that murdered Reamonn Gormley have pleaded guilty, not going to comment except to say both b......s were out on bail.... words fail you sometime at our lawmakers.

Ref

Tony {Ed007's Note - No, I never rated Kris Boyd either as a player and where has he ended up? I doubt he will be here for the next two years but if he doesn't finish top scorer will you say he is a bad player? Naismith is by far a better player.}

i agree totaly regarding Naismith far better player but regarding big kyle you may not rate him but he is arguably the best striker in the SPL at this moment yes he misses a good few chances but he also scores a good few chances he works his socks of to get into the positions to miss or score goals. he runs down every ball. i understand that we all look for different things in a player and obviously big kyle dont tic the right boxes for you. but on his current form i think NL would jump at the chance of playing Laugherty. as for Kris Boyd its ok saying where is he now but look what he done when he was here maybe he was just suited to Scottish football. look at Harald Brattbackk 97 goals for Rosenberg then 12 for celtic then 54 for Rosenberg, Tony Cascarino is another, s**t for celtic but great player elsewhere obviously scottish football didnt suit these guys no matter what you think of kris boyd you cant take away the fact that he was some goal scorer

Years Team Apps† (Gls)†
2000–2006 Kilmarnock 153 (63)
2006–2010 Rangers 143 (101)
2010–2011 Middlesbrough 27 (6)
2011 → Nottingham Forest (loan) 10 (6

he had one bad spell at middlesbrough under Tony Mowbery but didnt the whole Celtic team have a bad spell under this guy lol he also has 2 spl winner medals 2 scottish cup medals and 2 league cup medals he was spl leading scorer 4 times and is spl record goal scorer. and you dont rate him well i hope big kyle is as unsuccessful as him.

Tony {Ed007's Note -Why would NL want Kylie? Forrest and Hooper have scored the same amount of league goals this season as him. Hooper has a better goal scoring record throughout his career as well and as for Boyd, I know plenty of Rangers fans that didn't rate him as a player, even WS wouldn't trust him in big games. He can't even get near the Scotland squad.}

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Sorry Tony but even i disagree. Kyle aint the best striker in the SPL hell he aint even the best striker at gers .......... tell me who do u think is worth more Kyle of Jela ?! exacrly ... my he misht be one of the best forms strikers but in all honesty Id take Jela, Naisy (just cos he doesnt play up front doesnt mean i cant include him as a striker) and id take hooper .... wouldnt take stokes or sammy over him no way (dont know about Bangura we cant say this early)

Agree0 Disagree0

Ps meant to add Germinator to post eariler (it posted it before i finished ?!)

errrr.. germinator lol {Ed007's Note - You are just trying to claim a post as your own ;-)

Agree1 Disagree0

I have to agree with ed about Boyd, Nevre rated him either. Yes he has a fantastic goalscoring record, but just never rated him. Would maybe say otherwise if he had played in green and white, actually no. I think i dont rate him cos his attitude stinks. Yes he will poach a goal or 2 but he lumps himself around a 10 square yard part of the pitch whining at everyone else around him. In the big games he always goes missing!. can do it against the likes of st johnstone ( yes i know even we cant do that just now) but up the level of opponent and he is found wanting every time. fair enough he maybe didnt get as many opportunities in the big games as his goals record may suggest but i think it was genuinley down to a case of his work ethic and general demeanour on the pitch.

Just hope this comment doesnt start the old Larsson v Boyd arguement Tony...... sugar i brought it up .... oops. lol


Evinguu

Agree0 Disagree0

Ps. regarding the Boyd dispute he is like any poacher .... only as good as the team that is around him ..... if he plays for a team that fails to create chances/put the ball in box then he is hopeless, put him in a team that loves throwing the ball into the box and he can look top class.

IMO (mind its just my opinion) u put boyd in the real madrid team and ur talking about 30+ quite easily but not barca, as the CF is required to be as much a creater as the rest of the team

Germinator

Agree1 Disagree0

Have to disagree with you guys totaly here i would not take hooper over Lafferty hooper is bone idol spends more time standing with his hands in the air than actually chasing a ball

Agree0 Disagree0

Evinguu even i hate mentioning Boyd and Larrson in the same breath i think if you try to sum them up i would have to say Boyd was a goalscorer and Larrson was a Footballer who could score goals

Tony

Agree1 Disagree0

10 Oct 2011 14:46:00
But i aint rating him ?! i wasnt even the one bringing the subject up im only arguin the point made by both of you that he aint in superb form .... it simply aint true, u can say he is awful your entitled to ur opinion ... 2.5 years ago the majority of gers fans would have agreed with you. But u cannot take away the fact that currently his form has been excellent .... whether this last or not i cant say but i think im correct in stating for all the donkey he is proclaimed to be he is still arguably better in better form than any player pulling on the hoops at the moment (now this could be co the team are playing well in the SPL or players doing everything for him but facts are facts). the reality that no one has came up with a player says it all really?

Germinator {Ed007's Note - Where did I say anything about his form? I made an off the cuff comment about the use of the word rough. Here is the current goalscoring chart, hardly running amok is he?

news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/scot_prem/top_scorers/default.stm}

Re:
well thats his last 6 games - 4 goals... on the back of an injury aswell but his last 12 SPL games have produced 11 goals only 3 games he hasnt scored in .... not including any assists. As I said you can argue his ability but not his form ....
I get the impression that you hold a personal grudge against the guy or at least thats how it sems. I still await a fellow tic fan come and prove Timmalloy ... he is in form wait for it ...... FACT (ull love that ed :oP)

All opinions aside all past aside right now the guy is in great form..... well see how long it lasts

Germinator {Ed007's Note - So any player I don't rate I must have a personal grudge against? I am not that petty, he does seem to have learnt his lesson and isn't as big a kn*b as he was but I have no personal grudge against him.}

Believable0 Unbelievable0

No worries ed ... i never said u did just that was the impression you were giving off.

as they say form is temporary , clas is permanent.

Its up to Kyle to prove he can be the latter. will require a lot more rolling up the sleeves tho

Germiantor {Ed007's Note - Maybe he has turned the corner, but consistency has always been his problem.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Too many young players fall into the bracket of Mr Lafferty (esp when playing in scotland), cant reproduce on a regular basis, like Ki of celtic for example, cracking wee player but not all the time. That said Kyle has been getting better from end of last season onwards and is looking like bringing consistency to his game. But he has had spells like this before and gone off the boil again. I think his form relates to his stupid haircuts.... the worse the do the worse he plays, the more normal the do the better he plays! maybe theres a link between hair and laffertys consistency lol

Afternoon Ed, finally back home from hospital, one more operation to go but not until February (these doctors like dragging out things ) Anyway my question is if Celtic win league do we go straight into group stages of Champions League or do we have to play a qualifier, reason I ask is that my rangers supporting cousin says both teams go into third qualifying round, but surely winning league must bring some benefit over second placed team?
This is not football related, but I hope you will indulge me, last week I got taken in my wheelchair around Kelvingrove Park, to give me a break from Western Infirmary hospital routine. We passed by bowling greens and workmen told us that they were preparing them for Commonwealth Games, the greens will have temporary stands and will have a backdrop of Kelvingrove Museum, I can imagine this will look spectacular come 2014, and hopefully show Glasgow at its finest. Neil T {Ed007's Note - Glad to hear you are doing ok Neil and nice to have you back. 1st and 2nd place both go into the CL 3rd qualifying round next season.}

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Ed, obviously being in hospital, I have missed a lot of games even on tv, saw some posts about Bangura, in your opinion ed how good is he? My cousin told me he runs about but lacks a goal threat, do you agree? Neil T {Ed007's Note - That sounds a pretty fair assessment of him so far Neil.}

Agree0 Disagree0

10 Oct 2011 13:45:45
Germinator {Ed007's Note - I've been through all this before, I never have and never will rate Kylie.}

right Ed you have always made it clear that you are not big Kyles No1 fan but you have said that you never have and (never will rate him) the boy is 23 years old full international what if he goes on to be the SPL top Scorer for the Next Two seasons would you rate him then if the answer is no then it must be something personal you dont like about him.

Tony {Ed007's Note - No, I never rated Kris Boyd either as a player and where has he ended up? I doubt he will be here for the next two years but if he doesn't finish top scorer will you say he is a bad player? Naismith is by far a better player.}

Believable1 Unbelievable1

Lafferty defenetley showed signs of being a good player but struggled to score but this season he looks much better he scores more goals and i think he will turn out to be a good player but the thing is Naismith is class runs from first to last minute and never stops Scotland to win 1 0 tommorow with Naismith scoring the winning goal

Agree5 Disagree0

10 Oct 2011 12:32:30
celtic and rangers cant even compete finacialy with the championship never mind the real big clubs face up to you are both also rans amongst the elite stay in your own little league and as for derby matches you dont compare to barca v real madrid, liverpool v everton, manchester united v manchester city, inter milan v ac milan etc etc you both have to get real. {Ed007's Note - Real Madrid v Barcelona is not a derby, Man Utd and Liverpool's biggest games of the season are against each other. I also noticed you failed to say what little team you support to stimulate such jealousy.}

Believable1 Unbelievable0

I've been to a City v Utd game and it's got nothing on an Old Firm game.
There are too many players who have went on to, or had already played in so called Derby games that have confirmed there is nothing anywhere near ours.

We know we can't compete financially, but we are both still massive clubs.

Agree1 Disagree1

Sorry about that i support fulham a small club by epl standards but miles bigger than the old firm compared to them we are massive loadsa money you see {Ed007's Note - Sorry but I can't even take you serious now.}

Agree0 Disagree1

Sooo the size of the bank balance denotes the size of the club? Nothing to do with anything else then... ohh i seee, thanks for clarifying that, and here was me thinking big clubs had to do with support and acheivements in their nation leagues and in europe etc. Oh well if thats the case im off to support Man City cos they are the biggest club in the world then arent they!!

Anyways befors i 'Bite' too much better stop i agree with ed i cant take this seriously!!

Evinguu

Agree1 Disagree0

Fulham lolol what a tool

Agree1 Disagree0

I may not fulham but i sure fooled you

Agree0 Disagree0

Fulham are playing no bad at the moment..and as i've been told before the biggest deluded fan in Europe are Celtic & Rangers ! Real Madrid v Barcalona is the EL Clasico..more than a derby and we don't even come close.

And all the millions Lennon has blown on duds. Thats hardly Desmond's fault is it.

10 Oct 2011 05:50:41
Heard from a reliable source on the board, Neil Lennon has been summoned for a meeting on Tuesday 11 October for what might be his last role as manager of Celtic FC. A new manager has been selected and may be no other than Martin O'Neill.
This has been prompted by the fact that he has lost the dressing room. Ki, Kayall, Ledley and Commons have made their feelings clear on this matter.

Believable2 Unbelievable2

I have heard it is for a contract extension it will show that the board are behind the manager its good its also the celtic way

Agree2 Disagree2

Contract extension never if NL dosnt win the League this season he will get the boot the majority of Celtic fans will turn on him and it would cost the board to get rid of him and we know that the board dont like spending money as for MON well i dont think so he will want to much money to spend in the transfer window and he has the habit of walking away from clubs. {Ed007's Note - It is impossible to sign an extension on a one year rolling contract.}
