    Aye, I can't mind who that was either, but it was bizarre. Only person I've seen talk about Gordon in a negative way this season actually.

    Go to the 3-3 Inter thread at half time and you'll find there were quite a few people questioning whether Gordon was good enough for Europe at half time in that game. Laughable.

    I've still got the slightest of doubts regarding his big game mentality. Not just due to the Inter game... I realise it was a long time ago but every big game against us when Hearts were in that Romanov period he seemed to * up.

    For somebody with his ability and his experience... it's just a bit odd. I'm more than happy with him, would just like to see that get truly put to bed in my head though.

    Just one of they things.

    That is pathetic in all honesty. Not going to lie and say I don't think he cost us the Inter tie though, because I think he did, but he was the main reason we were able to play Inter, because he was by far our best player in the group stages.

    Wasn't actually as bad as I remembered. That's the worst of what was said at half time.

    ...and then Sarah was like "that's not what you said before" and me and Christy were like "yah it was, it so was" and then she just snapped and said we're not her BBFs anymore until we apologize. So me and Christy were like "apologize for what??" And Sarah was like "for what you said about Leigh before" and me and Christy were like "* that's like three months ago!!" but Sarah wouldn't hear any of it and blocked us both on faceberk. GAWD she's such a *.

    He's now just over one in two for us in the league - a must for any good Celtic striker. :50:

    "Charged for singing an offensive song".

    There's certainly a strong Orwellian aftertaste to that concept.

    or Chinese zoo keepers

    50-year-old Zhang Bangsheng used warm water to clean a small Francois’ Leaf Monkey’s buttocks, then began using his mouth to lick it, not stopping for over an hour, until the little monkey defecated a single peanut. Only after the peanut was defecated did Zhang Bangsheng laugh with satisfaction.

    Croogle invented the Lawwell Hipsters phrase. I particularly liked how he dealt with them as well.

    He'll score atleast once on Sunday. When he plays he scores, doesn't always play well but still manages a goal.

    Best striker at the club.

    It doesn't even work. If there's one position you wouldn't mind a monkey playing, it's in nets.
