Great, another waste of money.

No if you're Celtic FC...

We are all going to go to the rugby at Ibrox as well you know, the whole thing will be good though, unless some of the miserables who never want to see anything different or interesting happen and complain about money that would not have been available anyway nor being spent on something "more worthy." </BLOCKQUOTE>

I'd rather keep the money in my pocket, thanks.

As for the rugby 7s being held at Ibrox, the area (or the stadium itself) isn't being upgraded because of one event. Unlike Celtic Park and the surrounding area so I'm led to believe.

Strange how Hampden Park wasn't used for the opening ceremony.

No the RST have proven they need your, usually, immaculate spelling more than once in the past my old chum.

Fair point about the east end, though as far as I am aware nothing much will happen with CP itself apart from a major upgrading of the press facilities and their return to the skybox.

Though a new underground link will come in very useful, you boys should know all about that, and the regeneration will undoubtedly have some influence on the club and it's environs, thanks to Glasgow Celtic Council.

Farce if Nigeria get this.
However as Africa have never hosted it before, you just wonder whether scam e-mails and kidnapping could be introduced as an individual or team event by 2014.

Wow you are so open minded there must be a hole in your skull. </BLOCKQUOTE>
Not at all.
FACT: Many scam e-mails originate in Nigeria.
FACT: The Foreign and Commonwealth Office issue regular warnings against travel to certain parts of Nigeria due to the risk of kidnapping.

I didn't even mention risks regarding armed robbery and terrorism. Oh no wait a sec, that was Glasgow.
