Fair play to the Celtic fans - rendition of Aidan McAnespie during the Remembrance silence on Sunday.

Oh why did you do it?
Have you not the guts to say
You say it was an accident or even a ricochet
But like Loughgall and Gibraltar you´re lies are well renowned
You murdered Aiden McAnespie on his way to the Gaelic ground

Celtic had asked Falkirk last week could they have a minutes applause instead of silence, Falkirk turned them down flat.

Correct decision by Falkirk, why should they change their plans to try and save face for Celtic.

Really sorry to hear about John Kennedy. He hadnt had the chance to fully establish himself before the injury but he looked capable of being a really good footballer. It was a cowardly tackle in a friendly match which caused it, a real waste.

If I remember, there was also no need for John to make the tackle, as the referee had blown his whistle to stop play seconds before.

yet again way off the mark on all things Celtic - this time Kennedys inj and the tackle that lead to it

[Archie Mitchell]

Can't find the "challenge" anywhere on YouTube, but how anyone can say Kennedy was at fault for it and deserved what he got is a moron. Its quite clear that this challenge ended his career so he has every right to seek compensation from the Romanian FA and/or player.

Seen big John Hartson on Sky before the Swansea Cardiff match last Saturday and he was in great form then. Just finished his first bout of treatment and very optimistic.

Sad news about Kennedy.
Myles gets it wrong again about Celtic shocker!
LDA bit disappointed at that, Celtic realised that their maybe a negative reaction from a miniscule minority of away fans to a minutes silence, so requested a mins applause, this would have starved these people of any attention and not sullyed the occasion. But yet again it seems that the sensible option was ignored for, well who knows what reasons!

I see that we are being linked to Leon Best in the transfer market and Garry O'Connor at Birmingham.

More guff.

It's not on you tube anymore and it's difficult to find a comprehensive match report, but this one makes reference to the fact that the ref was, at very least, in the process of blowing for a free, if he hadn't already done so.
You, and others who post regularly on here about 'soccer', would be better off sticking to commenting on GAA games. You know know shite bugger all about football, that's for certain.

So what is it then? Did the referee blow his whistle to stop play seconds before the tackle as you say in your first quote, or was he about to or in the process off doing so in your second quote?

I'm pretty sure the referee had actually blown the whistle, but I can't find a report which confirms that at this point.

Scotland, with 3 Celtic men at the back, taking a tanking off Wales today.

Make your mind up then Myles. It's either one or the other. Are you seriously trying to say that Kennedy was at fault for the challenge which ruined his career?

That's not what I'm saying at all (did you read my post, or did you just add a reply because all the other wankers were pitching in?). I was saying that it was tragic that Kennedy got a career stopping injury in a tackle that he didn't have to make, simply  because he didn't hear the whistle.

[Main Street]

The tackle he did not have to make was not the cause of his injury.

You do put the anal in analysing Myles.
First time for everything in the history of analysing career ending tackles, Myles reckons that the  victim is to be responsible for receiving his injury by playing the game, for which Kennedy was on the receiving end of what most everybody else on the planet would include on their list worst ever tackles.

Probably already uploaded somewhere on you tube under worst ever tackles.

See my response to Archie Mitchell's post. You're deliberately trying to drag the thread up a blind alley to distract from the fact that you made an arse of yourself with your response to my first post. A veritable guff fest, IMO.

Myles it seems like your the w**ker, so don't start mouthing at us. So now the ref was only in the process of blowing the whistle? Where you never told to play to the whistle? Dick
