Re: Celtic on trip to Dubai
After the Fulham cancellation clarets would have been candidates for warm weather training.
I am sure it would have been floated and then rightly discounted.

Re: Wake up happy clappers
There was plenty of heart in the team v spurs and I don’t think it has dissipated in a matter of a few days.
Forget today. I think Dyche had them going back to basics v Spurs, rebuilding confidence, and it nearly got a point. They will continue to do that and when the win comes more will follow.

It’s going to get a lot worse before it gets better isn’t it. I suspect there will be a real difference between people with manageable outgoings and low debts, who will scrape through it, versus people who already had massive outgoings and debts before the crisis hit, who will not.
