James Forrest divides opinion for Celtic/Scotland but that was his 12th major honour today. He's only 26. Will probably end up one of the most decorated players in Celtic's history.
Champions League was lucrative but brutal for the 'Champions Route' teams this year. APOEL, Celtic, Maribor, Olympiacos and Qarabag got just 11 points between them. Celtic the only team to drop into Europa League.
Callum McGregor barely got a mention when it came to the PotY awards but his contribution to Celtic's Treble was huge. Big goals in big games. He was terrific again today.
Gutted to hear the news of Gerry Marley’s passing. A sad day. He made history and left an incredible legacy during 60+ years in charge of Campsie Black Watch, giving so many of us memories to last a lifetime at a great club. A proper Scottish football legend. RIP.
Virgil van Dijk going to Liverpool for £75m?? Staggering rise. Three years ago today he marked Yoann Arquin out of the game in Celtic's 0-0 draw with Ross County.
Well done to my older, more ginger, brother James on completing the Bishopbriggs triathlon at the weekend. All money raised is going to the brilliant Marie Curie Hospice, in memory of our mum.
Dedryck Boyata will get a lot of stick after Celtic's defeat tonight but where is Marvin Compper? He not meant to be the experienced old head signed precisely for games like that?
Gerry was a top teacher, a great manager of our school team and a brilliant guy. “Just kick it with your heid, David” is the best advice anyone ever offered. RIP Mr Menlove.
+++ CLUB ANNOUNCEMENT +++
Sad to announce the passing of one of our founding members, Gerry Menlove. Along with others formed the club in 1974. Firstly a player, then Secretary and Manager, the architect of our club moving to

. Condolences to the Menlove family.
Weeks like this make you realise how bad Scotland's indoor football facilities are. You'll probably have pro teams reduced to playing 5s in gym halls with a furry yellow ball and overturned benches.
Barony Bar, 50p vodkas, Bubble Lounge, Thursday nights, annual all-nighters, DJ Phil, 50p vodkas, England 0-1 Scotland in ‘99, interviewing Louise from Eternal for the Strath Telegraph, 50p vodkas. End of an era. 😢
End of an Era 📣
Today we officially say goodbye to the 'ten floors of fun', our former home at 90 John Street 😥
We'll just need to make more in Richmond Street soon!

Was in Buchanan Galleries this morning. Shops busy and car park rammed. Then to The Fort...exact same. But you still can’t get a few thousand fans into massive football grounds to sit outside, yards apart?Lower league crowd fan ban even worse - beyond farcical. Makes no sense.
Plucky press team hold their own in ludicrous heat in Austria against Celtic backroom staff before going down 12-6. Heads held high.

man marking job on Damien Duff will live long in the memory
Plan to jog/slog the Falkirk 1/2 marathon on Nov 19 to raise money to support Connell in next stage of treatment.
If anyone can take a min to read his inspirational story and donate to the fund below, it would be appreciated.

Huge win for Rangers. Ross McCrorie very good again. Neil Lennon says Hibs were sensational but not happy with ref Kevin Clancy for pen decision. His final word was for Graeme Murty - "He handles himself well, I'm pleased for him personally".
Brutal drive back down the A9 from Dingwall in torrential rain. Trip worth it for Ross County's haggis, neeps & tattie pie though. A Scottish football delicacy. Every ground should sell them.
Gulf in quality at Hampden was stark. Callum McGregor again outstanding for Celtic. Always moving, classy on the ball and does the dirty work too. Rangers need to find the right manager and let him build something.
