Another bloody international break, Bluesky, and the official start of the Winter Transfer Window rumour mill

Hello, good afternoon and welcome to the Celtic Da Weekly. The Celtic column for folk who can’t understand why bus numbers need to have an X in them these days. X19? What’s wrong with just 19? Surely there aren’t A19 all the way through to X19 driving about our streets? I know Union Street is chocablock with buses but this is ridiculous. Have we run out of numbers?

Yes, we are here on a Saturday afternoon because, thanks to the third (count them) international break of the season, there’s nothing else to do today but write nonsense and go to the tip and I need to keep some rubbish back for this. 

Seriously, three international breaks and we haven’t even played 12 games in the league yet? Surely even the wee specky chookter students who make up the “Tartan Army” must be getting bored with this nonsense? They must be only a couple of games away from chucking it and actually trying to form a meaningful relationship with a real person or something. How many times can you stick on a hat with a feather, bare your arse to strangers and get the horseless carriage train into the big smoke to marvel at electric street lights, cobblefree roads and the headshakingly crazy fashions of these city folks before it stops looking like you’re a quirky character and starts to look like you’re just sadly in need of a decent night out? Fair play to the SFA for putting the game on a Friday as it does mean the fanbase has a chance to get back home to their But and Bens before everything shuts on Sunday.
