Sharon Holland will be collecting the FEES at Hamilton Palace at 7.00 pm……and Theresa O Hara will be collecting the FEES at Jock Stein. Because of the issues re- Belfast and the Craig Tara tournament, we may have trouble catching up with everyone this weekend….and therefore we may have to collect some fees the following weekend. REMEMBER EVERYONE MUST PAY MONTHLY FROM NOW ON…..WEEKLY PAYMENTS CAUSE US MAJOR OPERATIONAL DIFFICULTIES. PLEASE, PLEASE PAY MONTHLY. THIS IS THE LAST MONTH @ ₤20 per month…..FROM ST 1 MAY…2008….THE FEES WILL BE GOING UP TO ₤25 per month. (1st rise in four and a half years). The Weekly TOTE !!!! Fantastic, wonderful, terrific !!!!!!! We are absolutely OVER THE MOON that most parents are now starting to contribute to this fantastic fund raising effort. We had a brilliant response last week and I cannot thank everyone enough for making it a ‘bumper week’. As we have already said….it doesn’t matter if you contribute a POUND a week or a FIVER or whatever….your son WILL BENEFIT. Hopefully (yes!!! A pound a week if FINE….) this week we can announce in next week’s newsletter that ALL 80 student’s parents are participating……how brilliant would that be. We now have ‘collectors’ in every squad – (thank you for our ‘new collector’s) … or you can give the sheet to the Team Manager / Coach……or you can give it to me…..or you can email it to Suzanne / Michael. It’s not the money we need in by Kick Off time…we can get that later….IT’s THE SHEET WE NEED. We have early kick offs this week too…….so we need the sheets in before 12.00 noon if possible. Please think seriously about taking the same results EVERY week and handing your sheet in monthly….how easy would that be……..₤5 (or whatever you choose) a month……paid at the same time as your subs……fantastic….saves all the hassle. ONCE AGAIN …A BIG THANKS TO ALL OUR NEW CONTRIBUTORS…..WELCOME ON BOARD !!!!!!!! THERE WERE NO WINNERS LAST WEEK SO WE ARE UP TO ₤150 PRIZE MONEY THIS WEEK BELFAST – FINAL ARRANGEMENTS……. The BUS will be leaving HAMILTON PALACE SPORTS GROUND on Sunday morning at 6.00 am sharp as it is a three hour coach drive to Stranraer. Please be on time !!!!!! We WILL leave without you because we do not have a list of who is taking their own cars down………even though I asked for one last week….only a few people advised us !!! Sarah Reid’s three spare places have been taken up. There are still places on the FERRY although you would need to book ‘off your own back’ ….online !!! If you do this, I need to know…..and it is possible that I may have spaces on the buses. Phone me if you want to do this……and of course if any extra players are going I need to know for insurance purposes….so let me know at your earliest convenience. I sent an email to all during the week giving the venue and the directions. Please consult that email. IMPORTANT : I have been instructed that you CANNOT park up your cars at Hamilton Palace Sports Ground. If you do so, you MAY find it clamped when you return. Best place to park is the retail park nearby….do not park in ASDA !!! The students will NOT need packed lunches as the ferry has full catering facilities including the world famous ‘lifesaver’ …Burger King !!! They do a good breakfast too. For those of you travelling down to Stranraer ‘on your own steam’ …..please be there for 9.00 am SHARP or you will NOT get on the Ferry. They are very strict. When on the Ferry, LOOK AFTER YOUR CHILD…..in terms of behaviour. There are 1500 people on this ferry and hundreds of cars….so kids can easily get lost, get into mischief….and I will be wandering around anyway….so if I see any groups, or cliques….there will be trouble….and they will not kick a ball on the other side …believe me !!! There is a smoking area which everyone has access to, which is the only ‘outside’ part of the ferry that is dangerous…..please ensure that STUDENTS DO NOT ENTER THIS AREA….ESPECIALLY YOUNG CHILDREN, AS THEY COULD QUITE EASILY SQUEEZE THROUGH THE RAILINGS. This would take them to the bottom of the Irish Sea….so keep an eye on your kids…..The coaches cannot be held responsible for looking after your kids in transit. Jean Thomson has very kindly supplied sick bowls, kitchen rolls and poly bags, and black bags to take rubbish from buses etc. She is also bringing raffle tickets and bingo tickets. The boys loved the bingo the last time. Can EVERY FAMILY going on the bus bring ONE small raffle prize (for kids). Also can everyone make sure they bring a pen for THREE fun games of bingo on the bus. We have ONE bingo game but we are looking for another for the second bus. Numbers must go up to 90. Please give me a ring if you can help us out with another bingo game. NO ALCOHOL … must be consumed on the Coaches…especially by the students …Ha! Ha! Under NO CIRCUMSTANCES can blades be worn of 4G Astrograss surfaces. Players must play in Training Shoes, Astroturf Trainers, or round moulded studs. I HAVE RE-ADJUSTED THE TEAMS AFTER CONSULTATION WITH MY IRISH COMPANIONS DUE TO AGE DIFFERENCES. TEAMS for BELFAST (36 players) 1998’s 1999’s 2000 ‘A’ 2000 ‘B’ David Thomson (GK) Ross Bordon (GK) Conor Reid (GK) Colm Mc Laren (GK) Anthony Croal 99 Paul Croal Callum Holland Michael Curran Andrew Gallagher Calum Glasgow Jack Keary Kian Mallin Danny Scally 99 Morgan Smith Anthony Maguire Declin Martin Anthony Ralston Scott Ballantyne Cameron Stewart Michael Mc Laughlin Liam Burt 99 Alex Keenan Christopher Mc Connell Qaid Somerville Aiden Gray Craig Butler Anton Gray Padraig Dolan Aaron Gray Struan Paton Matthew Innes Kieron Dolan Ross Henderson 99 Gilbert Mc Lean Conor Burt Jordan Houston Manager : G.Burt Manager : S.Walker Manager : J.Renwick Manager : B.Mc Donald 9 Players 9 Players 9 Players 9 Players The Craig Tara Under 8’s Tournament I have decided to put the 2000 ‘White’ Group into this weekend’s Craig Tara Tournament at the Old Racecourse Ground in Ayr.

  • Jock Stein – the Definitive Biography Archie Macpherson - Highdown - ISBN 1-904317-73-1
    Books – Jock Stein – The Definitive Biography Archie MacPherson - Highdown - ISBN 1-904317-73-1 Jock Stein might have only held the reins at Elland Road for 44 days (spookily the same length of time as Old Big ‘Ead), but there’s no way I could really exclude this book from those covered on the Mighty Leeds website. You see, this site is about much more than just football and this remarkable club, it also attempts to cover a little bit of the social history of the last 100 years or so, and the 1960’s and 1970’s, when Stein reigned supreme as the peerless manager of Glasgow Celtic, is a rich period indeed for study of people. The Scot was one of a multitude of genuinely great managers around at the time … Busby, Ramsey, Nicholson, Revie (of course), Shankly and even Cloughie, although he came right at the end of the period. Broadcaster Archie MacPherson bravely titled this tome “Jock Stein – The Definitive Biography”, but he certainly came up with the goods with one truly great piece of work about a truly great man. Just to get the Leeds United stuff out of the way first, there are only a couple of pages included on Stein’s time in charge in The Big Man 1978, but it’s all enthralling stuff, and we also get a great insight into the clash between Celtic in Leeds in the European Cup semi finals in 1970: “Stein had great respect for Don Revie, the Leeds manager, as an original thinker in the game, but he did not think Celtic deserved the treatment they received both before and after the match.

Appointed A Scotland team manager only two months earlier, on 11 April 1967 he oversaw his team beating England, then reigning world champions, at Wembley, English football’s impressive and emblematic stadium. It was his first full international in charge and England’s first loss in 20 games. To defeat the world champions, Scotland’s most intense and enduring rivals, in these circumstances was an outstanding achievement, like winning the Grand National on your debut ride or running a four-minute mile in your first race. The date is enshrined in Scottish football history as one of its most memorable days. In fans’ folklore, it was the day when Scotland became ‘unofficial world champions’ by knocking England off their throne – and what could be sweeter for a Scottish fan? As Brown said, in his understated way at the time, ‘It was a fairly daunting task for your first game in charge.

Founded in 1887 by Irish emigrant, Brother Walfrid to help alleviate the poverty and desperation of 19th Century East End of Glasgow, Celtic has always been a symbol of “community identity, pride and confidence”. Fast-forward to 2015, and that same sense of pride still lay at the heart of the club’s identity. Brother Walfrid Celtic Park stands in Glasgow’s Parkhead district. Proudly referred to as ‘Paradise’ by Celtic’s vast legion of fans, it has been a feature of Glasgow’s skyline for more than a hundred years.
