I P Knightley Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Hopefully I receive a few free tickets to go watch the Cellick every now and then, so I can burn them and stop a couple of those mhanks getting a seat at some of the games. OR go along. Being in the Celtic end, you could run out, slap a goalie and get them some points deducted. edit: bad plan - that would require the SFA to take action against an old firm club for the actions of one of its supporters.

The Old Tolbooth Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Just a wee update. Wee man played a blinder tonight in his trial, and is officially playing for 'Cellick' boys club this Saturday at 10am. Am the happiest man in the world tonight. Thanks for all the support guys. For the record, his team won 9-2 in the trial tonight, with them coming back from 2-1 down to win. Superb mate, sorry I didn't reply to your text bud but I was working late tonight and didn't get home until after 10, I just remembered you text me when I read this thread lol! Go on the mini Andy!!!

Boab Mugabe Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Congratulations to you all Andy. I completely hate ra sellik but your laddie has an amazing opportunity and I wish him all the very best in trying to achieve it. Except if he ever plays against Hearts, that is. I'm sure a couple of 'butterfingers' moments like Boruc on Sunday against us would do the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redm Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Well done Mini Copperpot! That's great news Andy. Doesn't matter who he plays for as long as he's getting the training and care that young players need. He's still a Jambo and we all know that the best keepers end up with us in the end anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breakin' Rocks Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 I'm over the moon mate, really really over the moon, however I want him to receive all the coaching in the world and then leave to join us. First stop Maryhill this weekend with a game against Kilmarnock. Hopefully I receive a few free tickets to go watch the Cellick every now and then, so I can burn them and stop a couple of those mhanks getting a seat at some of the games. May be worth you contacting either ac oxgangs and/or pentland panthers who will give you an idea of the mentality of the parents, coaches and kids at Celtic Boys Club. Both these teams played Celtic at under 11s in the Silloth Tournament in May of this year. I think you would be quite concerned at what went on and what the future may hold for your boy if he is successful at staying at this club throughout his formative years.

No offence, but that's the sort of comment which is only designed to cause concern. If there really is something for him to worry about, I'd suggest it might be more helpful if you were to contact him directly and tell him exactly what you mean rather than alluding to things on a message board.

Mr Romanov Saviour of HMFC Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 Can we put this thread in the classics forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToadKiller Dog Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 If its any consolation to the one's with principals on this thread, he will be wearing his Hearts goalie top to his first training session. Glad of that ,make sure when its there turn to get the team photo in the local paper he has the hearts colours on .nothing worse when you see east coast papers with kids teams full of old firm tops. Good luck to your lad ,my nephew is with Dundee utd just now anything can happen ,but the main thing is that he is having a good time no matter who he plays for.

cosanostra Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Just saw this thread, great news Andy - you must be pretty happy. Could be worse, he could have signed for the Huns!!! Celtic always seem to have decent youth teams so he's probably got a decent chance to develop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chester copperpot Posted September 6, 2008 Author Share Posted September 6, 2008 Just a quick update. They play 3 periods of 20 mins which I didn't know. They won 11-1 and the wee man made a Gordon-esque save from a corner. A Rangers scout who was at the game approached me at FT to introduce himself. Said he'd be back to see the wee man next week. Talk about a rock and a hard place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chester copperpot Posted September 6, 2008 Author Share Posted September 6, 2008 Gaun yersel Cammy! Contact Hearts scouts pronto! Mate, my heads still spinning with all this. Only this time last week, he was still with Campsie boys after joining a few weeks prior to this. One of the Cellick players who's in the same team as Cammy and is just a year older was absolutely amazing. Never seen an 8 year old play as well as that. The wee man was pretty good too. Was almost crying when he clawed the ball over the bar to make the save when it was only 1-0 as well. For a 6 year old (almost 7), it was as good as Gordon's save against Motherwell, if you put it into context. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a drink to celebrate, you know you want to, I will raise a glass to a future Hearts and Scotland goalie later! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mate, its like a different world having proper coaches coach him. No disrespect to the Campsie men, but the guys at Cellick have them so tuned in. I've never seen the lad concentrate like that in my life. They are getting given food sheets on the good and bad things to eat too, fecking awesome as he's really taking it all in as well. Am waiting for the father in law to come in to tell him about the Rangers scout. Can just imagine his response, which wont be able to be printed here. I'll be honest, doubt I'd move him now. Quite happy with where he is and who's coaching him now. Except if Hearts were to watch him though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let Celtic do the work- come 16 he signs for the JT's. Everyone is a winner. ps Tell your boy to grow his hair- get him a headband. He will be half way there. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as he keeps on enjoying it it doesn't really matter who he plays for. Not sure he will understand it all at the moment but if you know you are good and are playing for an SPL team it must be one of the greatest feelings. And GA - I don't think Andy will appreciate coming on here in 10-12 years reading about his son and your posting "I'm touching myself". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
