Mornin' bhoys and ghirls.
Looking forward to a stroll in the East End Park today - it's time for the bhoys to relax and play some football.
Here's what I'd like to see.....
Boruc
Telfer Balde Virgo Wilson
Maloney Keane Petrov Naka
Magic BBJ
Mick will likely start though in favour of Virgo. Lennon on the bench for a rest
0-3 Will do.
-
2-0 today
-
NOEL 90 IS AN AUL HAUND
NOEL 90 IS AULDER THAN TEDDY SHERINGHAM AND CHEEKIER THAN ARTUR BORUC
-
Same team as last week - Naka not even on the bench :(
Boruc
Telfer Balde McManus Wilson
Maloney Keane Lennon Petrov
Magic BBJ
-
Always just too slow bah
Mon tho bhoys today
-
If I may, I was not 1st. The "Honour" belongs to mncelt.......... Honest.
pablophanque
-
Looking foward to hopefully some silky passing football and also revenge for the defeat we suffered from dunfermline at parkhead. No Naka? Any news on that one? I feel with keane playing he will make sure everyone is up for it and everyone performs today. 3-0 celtic, Majic (2) and Hartson.
Moan The Hoops
-
Same team as last week, 2-1 to the hoops!
we owe them a doing right enough, our one true match winner (copyright of Paul67) not playing though we could struggle for creativity.
In my opinion though, wee Shaun has the potential to be better than Naka because of his defensive qualities.
Come on Shaun prove me right....
1-2 (Simmons, Maloney, Magic)
-
According to Chan 67, Naka IS on the bench.
CELTIC:
1 BORUC, Artur
2 TELFER, Paul
6 BALDE, Dianbobo
44 MCMANUS, Stephen
12 WILSON, Mark
19 PETROV, Stilian
16 KEANE, Roy
18 LENNON, Neil
29 MALONEY, Shaun
10 HARTSON, John

-
Pablo - howd you do that ?? :)
-
Gawd knows mn...........as I said, the honour's yours mate.............. I blame the ads ??????????
C'mon the hoops
pablophanque
-
Tony Hamilton said at the top of the C67 program that Naka was not on the bench. He is listed though on the sub line-up. Why can't the club get their act together and give the C67 guys accurate info before it is released elsewhere?
-
Strachan saying the dressing room has been full of jokes and banter with regards to Borucs comments.
laughing it off it would seem!
-
Mncelt
so do we know if he is there or not? I aint seen him in the pictures yet and they have no mentioned it on setanta (sentantar if u ask wgs!)
-
I would imagine that this is the sites busiest day, therefore, can I remind everybody to click the ads. If you hold down shift and then click, the ad opens in another window, thus allowing you to stay on this page............... easy.............. ;o)
Remember people.............. A CLICK A DAY, HELPS PAUL TO PAY !!!!
You know it makes sense
pablophanque
-
Afternoon everybody. Lets hope for a relaxed, quality performance from the team and a comfortable victory.
Maybe even a clean sheet?
-
Sorry no time now. Have to see the game.
Zbyszek Legia fan
-
Naka definately on the bench.
pablophanque
-
Hopefully we put 3 past them by half time and give young Ferry, Naka and Dublin a good run out.
Who do you think would win in a fight between BBJ and Boruc?
I'd go with Boruc... he hasa crazy glint in his eyes that makes me think he is mildy pyschotic!:P (SP?)
-
Malone, I think eyel(sp?) would be a good judge of that !!!!!

3 mins. Dunfermline 0-1 Celtic.
Petrov after a great cross from Wilson on the left.
-
1-0 Stan
-
1.0 hoops stan.. great play from wilson
-
Wilson showed great skill on the left beating two players then providing an excellent low cross for Petrov to bullet home from two yards.
-
Good build up play by the bhoys. We've started well - playing the ball around. Wilson did well down the left, beat two players and squared across for Stan to knock the ball in.
-
STAN!!!
Excellent work by left winger Wilson!
-
Pendry havin a go at the 4th official there...
he was holdin the ball and the 4th official knocked it away from him. He recieved a stern finger waging from Pendry!
"Its my ball and your no playin!"
-
Petrov tripped in box. Should have been a penalty
-
Comfortable start by Celtic with midfield dominating.
Clear penalty denied with Petrov fouled inside the box.
He's getting forward quickly and the midfield four seem to be interchanging with the exception of Maloney who is staying on the left.
Having said all that a howler by Boruc at a corner has led to a simple equaliser.
-
13 mins. Dunfermline 1-1 Celtic
Boruc missed a corner kick resulting in a free header into the net.
-
Oh dear - Boruc flapped at the corner - terrible goalkeeping. 1-1
-
thats this weeks STONE WALL PENALTY denied.
Scott Wilson clearly brought down.
1-1
-
Boruc flapped at a corner, almost on the penalty spot. Easy header for andy todd
-
I'm dazed and confused. I don't recognize Boruc. Terrible mistake.Terrible
-
sorry I meant Scott Wilson clearly brought Stan down but ou got that right!?
-
Defence going through a shaky spell at the moment. the equaliser has changed the game entirely with Dunfermline passing it around.
Having said that Hartson has just scored......I must do summaries more often!!!
-
23 mins.
Dunfermline 1-2 Celtic
Hartson scores after great running with the ball by Zurawski.
-
is that bbj's first goal at Dunfermline. I was trying to remember is this is the ground where he has failed to score at
-
2-1 BBJ
Good play by Maloney, Keane and Magic. Magic shot was parried by keeper and bbj followed up and slotted away with his left foot.
Anyone for 5-4 ?
-
BBJ
2-1
Assist Magic man
-
Great play by Petrov to put Magic in for a shot, he held of his man well and had a low shot blocked, BBJ very sharp to get on the end of the save to riffle in the reboud with his left peg.
Petrov been superb so far! MOM for sure!
-
31 mins. Dunferline 1-3 Celtic
Wonder strike by Zurawski.
-
Excellent third goal from Zurawski. Wonderful finish after a good through ball from Hartson.
-
3-1 Magic
More great build up play by Maloney and BBJ and what a finish by Magic on his left foot. Beauty.
-
Is East End Park the only ground BBJ had played at in the SPL and not scored at until today?
-
38 mins. Dunfermline 1-4 Celtic
Zurawski sprung hte off-side trap to score easily.
-
Larssonesque finish by Zurawski. What better compliment can I give.
4-1
Hopefully see Ferry in the second half now (and Naka)
-
Who is Ferry folks? What position does he play?
Thanks for the updates...only option in Australia tonight
Northy
-
1-4 Magic
Another great finish - clearly on-side. This guy is QUALITY
-
The Tawny Eagle is deadly..
Absoblooming Lethal Weapon!
-
Broen totally gutted, bemoaning the Dunfermline defence!!!
-
Brown, sorry
-
Half time:
Dunfermline 1-4 Celtic.
Zurawski and Petrov running the show. Excellent passing football from Celtic.
Boruc mistake for the goal the only black spot.
-
yas!
ok, It could well be Magic for m.o.m!
hat trick please!
Magic is fully fit now it would seem!
-
HT - Dunfermline 1-4 Celtic
I complained last week about the style of our play in recent weeks. No complaints this week - this is us getting back to holding the ball, controlling the game, giving our forwards great service. Boruc's mistake aside, this has been a flawless display. To be fair to Boruc he has been commanding since losing the goal.
From the back, Wilson, Mick and Balde look very solid. Telfer is seeing a lot of the ball but his concentration and distribution has not been good.
All the midfield playing well, especially Petrov. Maloney is having a quiet but effective game.
Keane and Lennon strolling through this.
BBJ and Magic outstanding up front. Magic's two finishes have been WORLD class. Hopefully he will go on to claim his hat-trick.
-
Just to echo earlier comments. Zurawski's finishing is indeed world class. First one left foot, second right. A header to complete the hat trick ?
Have to say Dunfermline are woeful.
-
magic's running is the reason we're 3 goals ahead.
intelligent and also quite clinical. bbj's playing ok but i really wish he was a bit quicker. he's a great finisher but to have 2 strikers that can make those runs would be something!
i don't think we've played that well but our finishing has been excellent.
all that without a stonewaller penalty!
would like to see a bit more movement in the middle. keep it tight for 10-15 mins and then make a change or two.
Emjay
-
pastyface,
i think tynecastle is the only ground BBJ hasn't scored at.
Emjay
-
When was the last time we had someone who can finish as well as Zurawski! Magic!
Poor mistake by Boruc but he's allowed one.
Petrov's taking some beating - although I'd say it's between him and Magic for MOM I'd give him a rest.
Telfer looks like he's playing with the cold. (that way where you lose concentration and over/under hit simple passes)
-
I HOPE that Celtic come out in the second half looking to score a borrowload. It's been a good while since we have scored a "few" in a match and it would sen out signals to the likes of Hearts that they should just concentrate in finishing ahead of RFC.
In the past Celtic teams would take the foot off the pedal - but today why should we ?
Also we could make 2 or 3 subs, giving the likes of Naka and Dublin a taste of the "Four Seasons" (nuthin' to do with Antonio V. - just the weather in Fife...).
-
Northy, Ferry is a strong tackling midfield player, described as the engine of the midfield. He's been signed up by Strachan to 2010 and is very highy rated.
-
Thanks Fencelt...I lose touch a little with the young lads living over here.
Sounds like an ideal game to get the boy on maybe for the last 25 minutes.
Let's hope Magic gets his hat trick
Northy
-
thanks emjay. Don't where I got that from. Here is hoping for a Zurawski hat trick and pipe and slippers for boruc for the rest of the afternoon
-
Dunfermline is poor......
Why?
Celtic are making them look that way!
Stan is playing like a world class player....... but because of his dangerous movements, he is taking a beating....... maybe now playing with an injury...it is a darn shame.!
I will be surprised if Stan appears in the second half....no need to risk him.
Majic is, well........ just MAGIC!
-
Stan is out on the pitch trying to run off a knock - could be that WGS will take the opportunity to put Naka on.
-
Ref a shocker. Broken leg or ankle coming up for Stan/Shaun from this lot if not careful.
I really hope we horse this lot. We owe someone a thrashing and I really hope its them.No talent dirty lot.
-
GREAT first half performance, Boruc poor mistake but thats the only downside of an ENTERTAINING and GOOD performance!
Magic finishing is tremedous, Petrov has been great, Lenno & Keano solid, BBJ puttin in a good show again. Wilson in with a shout of m.o.m too.
Glad my prediction was wrong, we definately owe them a doin anyway so hopefully 7-1 or somethin!

This lot on Radio Scotland are shocking. Not one bit of praise for the Hoops, its all about how bad Dunfermline are. Get a grip! Sad sad country.
-
Quiet first few minutes of the second half. Keane making a couple of good runs down the right.
Maloney shot easily saved.
-
Lets give them something to moan about 7-1 would ring a few bells.
-
Wilson playing well on the left. Just crossed well along the six yard line.
-

BBJ Off. Good tactics by WGS. Keep BBJ fresh. Thommo coming on as well
-
Thommo on for Keane
-
Good save by Boruc, tidied up by Mick
-
A couple of shots by Dunfermline well saved by Boruc. Midfield has lost its grip on the game as Celts definitely ease up. Strachan laying into the team.
-
The bhoys have eased up now and have lost some of our shape since the changes. 3 chances for Dunfermline in the last few minutes.
-
Absloutely brilliant goal by Maloney.
-
73 mins.

What a finish by Shaun. Even better than Magic's !!
Just watching WGS asking NAKA if he wants to go on :) Naka decides that he does
-
-
WGS havin some banter with Naka there, who knows what language!
it looked like,
do u want to go on Naka?
ahm no bothered gaffer!
-
Maloney goal a volley from the edge of the box from a cross by Magic (?).
Naka about to come on for Petrov who has had a much quieter second half (not surprising given the knocks he received in the first half)
-
Petrov off for Naka. Great game from Stan
-
81 mins.
Dunfermline 1-7 Celtic
Neil Lennon!

-

Lennon is now playing centre forward ! :)

Dunfermline 1-8 Celtic
Excellent performance, helped by a bit of confidence after last week no doubt.
-

CLASS ACT ALL ROUND
Hail Hail.
