After a few hairy moments we have finally moved to OleOle. Here's The Blog it's bigger, better
faster and stronger. Same old shite getting written but what do you want for free.? Blood? Sweat?
Tears? A limb?
The reasons for moving are explained here. The Lord Of The Wing homepage is here. The Celtic
homepage (which you can update and manage) is here.

"The Lord Of The Wing" (LOTW) started three seasons ago so that I wouldnae get bored at
lunchtime. It has grown without ever troubling the "Top 4" Celtic Sites, which pimp
themselves on newsnow.
In football terms we are like Reading. Nice wee side, never going to win anything but play decent
football but ultimately will be like your wee cousin who you like but you feel quite sorry for as
he gets bullied at school and is useless at sport.

In all the buzz of winning the league on the last day (for the first time since we stopped 10, is
it better this time than then?) I forgot that we actually won a game of football and it took me 1
hour after the final whistle to remember that we had qualified for the Champions League next
season.

Last Wednesday morning I was searching the glove box of my battered banger for some music to listen
to on the way to work. The Radio was full of the UEFA Vase Trophy build up and I couldnae be arsed
listening to that.
Out fell an album by the popular beat combo Oasis. It was their last album "Don't Believe The
Truth".

My eyes were in Dundee tonight, my ears in Aberdeen and I witnessed a brillant sight, the best
sight I have seen. The League took many twists this time and also many turns......but Celtic won
the league this time for Tommy Burns.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tonight we met our destiny, fulfill our date with fate, on such tense and stressful nights, LEGENDS
we create, from Boruc to McDonald, behind them to a man, emotions will be fragile, the joys of
being a fan, the pride of following Celtic, seeps out from every pour, behind them untill the
bitter end regardless of the score, so sing the songs with pride, songs with which you've grown,
and remember as a CELTIC FAN YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE.

Nerves jangling.
In normal times this is what you would call a cracking game.
Both teams going full pelt, and both having clear cut chances.
Not being "normal times", we want Celtic goals.
I hope Gordon tells everybody to calm down a bit. Things are very frantic there.

Well, here we are - in less than an hour the New Firm will kick off against the Glasgow Giants to
finally determine which way the helipcopter will go.
After the last couple of weeks in which we Celts have been put thru one hellava emotional wringer,
we are finally back in the driving seat for the final game of the season.

Sunday morning "Sweeney" on ITV4. You canny beat it. A bit of Regan, Carter and un-PC
1970's dialogue, hard drinking and the beating of "nonce's". You also get the straight
down the middle nicknames. Like on Sunday, the Welsh "nonce" was called
"Taff".
Sure I heard them mention leeks and sheep as well.

Was walking from the hall to kitchen when I heard Alan Brazil on Talksport say "I'm
speechless". I stopped in the kitchen and listened to the rest of the bulletin.
"Diagnosed with cancer in 2006, came back March 2008" then the words "Celtic first
team coach......"
Truth is I can't remember what else was said.

The banner unfurled (as above) at a recent Glesga derby has never been so apt this morning. I'm
sure the people of Manchester will be looking at their raped, pillaged and violated city and
thinking the exact same thing.
Our sympathies this morning to go the people of Manchester.
At least the axis of peace has returned to the world and the football gods proved that they still
do exsist.

So that's it over. I didn't realise it was the last home game until the lines of stewards appeared
up the "Auld Jungle" touchline with about 5 mins to go. It still seems like this season
has months to go. If R*ngers got their way we would still have months to go with their game against
St Mirren being arranged for the Glesga Fair Weekend and thier last game against Aberdeen for the
12th July to ensure a full turnout from Ulster.

Well we got the 3points that we needed in this, the last home game of the season. That ensures it
all goes to the last day, which is as much as we could ask for.
It must be said that Celtic were more comfortable in the second half.
In saying that it was still all very tense, with chances on both sides - end to end stuff over the
90mins.
