Anywa, good to see National teams facing up to their repsonsbitlties, but if the Polish FA hadn't needed a fit Magic themselves in just a few months time, would they have played him?

GRETNA IN, RANGERS OUT?
Published on 03/03/2006
By Amanda Little
GRETNA could clinch a UEFA Cup place at the expense of Old Firm giants Rangers just by winning their Scottish Cup semi-final.
A place in the cup final would put Gretna straight into the UEFA Cup should the other finalist – either Hearts or Hibs – finish in the top three of the Scottish Premier League.
A UEFA spokesman last night told The Cumberland News there are NO plans to change the rules which would hand Scotland’s second UEFA Cup slot to the team which finishes fourth in the SPL – even if that means the mighty Rangers miss out on Europe.
Under the current rules, if the winners of the Scottish Cup on May 13 qualified for Europe, the runners-up qualify for the UEFA Cup.
That means Gretna, who have already beaten three Division One teams, could be just 90 minutes away from qualifying for Europe if they can overcome Dundee or Hamilton in the semi-final at Hampden Park on April 1. Hearts and Hibs will do battle in the other tie.
It had been widely expected that UEFA would this month change the regulations so that the team finishing fourth in the SPL would be awarded a place in Europe, rather than the Scottish Cup runner-up.
However, a spokesman said: “There are no plans for any such discussions to take place.”

I suspect Strachan is not the only one who is pleased. The more I see of Zurawski in the Hoops, the more I think back to that video that emerged before he signed where he was pinging goals in at the near post for fun.
He certainly looked the part there and is now starting to look like a proper, proper striker. He is also the main reason right now why I'm not having CL nightmares about next season...
Hats off to the Poles for not playing him. And 2 goals from him on Saturday (in a 3-1 victory) is the official Hazy prediction.
But I wouldn't "TAKE THAT TO THE SAVINGS AND LOAN" if I were you.

Nail on the head Paul- Aberdeen are indeed the inform team at the minute, but we're not doing too badly ourselves dont forget...
I was worried about the internationals esp. Zurawski as he's the most in-form striker in the country (if not Britain!) at the minute but as he's back in the same condition he left I dont see any reason he shouldn't pick up where he left off.
Here's hoping we can pick up a clean sheet and let Magic do the rest.

A BIG THANKYOU POLAND!
zbysek told us earlier in the week that Magic's hamstring was niggling and he would not be risked, so thanks for not taking the chance as so many other countries would have thrown him on for 15mins to see how it goes

[tried to post this earlier but I think the blog spat me out]
Edward,
…having lived for awhiles in the land where men are men and sheep are (rightly) very nervous I’d have to say that the Simpson/Durrant, Fergie years, Casuals, Paramount urinals incidents all gave fuel to the fire. However, I’d think you’d find your average Dons fan has a very general geographical (we hate the wedgies) sense about it all. This, it seems, is now being passed on from generation to generation in a “don’t ask why we just DON´T like them OK” sorta manner, with R*****s as the focal point for this distaste, rather like Pavlov’s dogs (or should that be Pavlov’s sheep?).
On a similar note has anybody else noticed that over the years there’s been a reasonable to’ing and fro’ing in the transfer market between Celtic and Aberdeen but only one way traffic between the Dons and TOFD. Any thoughts?

Did you get asking Socrates any good questions last week?

I'm sheepishlishy (topical, I know) after some guidance about tomorrow's game, fholks.
Mea culpa, but due to moving away from Glasgow it is almost 30 years since I last went to a game at Celtic Park. I've borrowed a couple of season tickets for me and number 6 junior and in between spasms of utter euphoria about the prospect of finding myself in the North Stand I don't actually know what the form is these days.
Do I wear a scarf (junior has a hoops top)? Do we sing? Can we ask our neighbours to desist from negative criticism of our heroes? Do we walk back to the city centre via Brigton, just for the buzz? Do we arrive at one o'clock to soak up the atmosphere? Do we stand up if a goal is scored? Is group hugging when Magic belts in another one the norm or anathema? Can chewing gum and macaroon bars still be got? Can we have a wee in situ into an empty Tennents can? Is Rougvie still playing for the Dons?
Please help me with some advice on Celtic Park 2006 style ghuys/ghals. So many questions, so much excitement, I am gibbering.
One more sleep to go and we'll be there.
-
Number 6
Enjoy the game, just dont go think about taking a can a coke into the game;-)
Pizza's terrible, but the pies are eddible. Dont know the last time a seen a macaroon, do they still make them?
-
Number 6, Where a scarf, sing your heart, jump about like a man posessed when Magic gets another hattrick, generally enjoy the atmosphere to the full. You'll get the moaners and groaners around you, but its you job to make kore noise than them (thats how I see it).
Enjoy every minute mo chara,

Nobody want to see him injured, neither us. Sent out from Celtic to cure, then on the bench waiting for his chance. We ( I mean Celtic and Poland) need him in a top form for Germany.

alright guys,
been busy and just catching up from a couple of articles ago. I would just like to say thanks very much pablo. No really thanks!!! Here am I sitting in work catching a few CQN moments to keep my sanity.
I come across would it have been TIAR without this man. I watch the video. I'm sitting at my desk wiping tears from my eyes. Cheers mate. I feel a proper twat now! Still it was good! Great memories. I still love "that is sensational!. I could listen to that all day. A special goal from a special player indeed. It almost made NIAR worth it.

number 6,
Into the boozers around CP around 1 for a few scoops, then wullie hills and stick a line on. Few more scoops - head to the stadium about half 2 avoiding those boys selling knock-off Keano scarves. Buy a Paradise windfall ticket so you can use it as confetti at half time when you find out ye huvnae won any dosh. Shout as much as ye want, the atmosphere at Dons games are usually quite good.
After we win head for McCuhills in the Merchant City for more scoops.

With all due respect is that your total contribution to this blog? Have you nothing of interest to say other than that?
Separate issue: Aberdeen Fans:
They are the most arrogant obnoxious bunch I've ever had the misfortune to come across - yes far far worse than the FOD who at least on occasion have someting to be arrogant about.
-
Re the Aberdeen vs Rangers discussion.
I really don't know why other than the reasons given to date (casuals, Durrant/Simpson, Fergie)there is the distaste that exists.
I suppose I could say that in general most Dons fans I know are decent minded sort of social democrats with a sense of humour and an understanding of fighting their corner against the odds.
I suppose I could also say that because their own great teams played football with a sort of cavalier but understated braggadocio, then they would also identify more easily with similar cultures.
These factors alone would suggest that coupled with being fairly civilised and educated city, with a tradition of multicultural integration, they would tend to shun the more reactionary, narrow-minded, exclusive, morose, utilitarian, sociopathic, supremacists who they believe comprise the legion of loonies down Ibrox way.
As I said, I could say that, but it would only be a random guess and that wouldn't be acceptable.
So I'll keep my mouth shut on this one.
BTW, could I just say to the Aberdeen fans who I perhaps suggested on a previous thread that they they were a bunch of wimps for not wanting to travel down tonight or tomorrow, I've just seen the pictures from Aberdeen and to be honest driving would be a sign of total madness.
Stay at home!
(but could you inform the ticket office that you won't be coming as it so happens that I have some Irish friends still on the scrounge for tomorrow)

The fates have allowed that I get to take my daughter, whose 4, to paradise for her very first visit tommorrow. She grasps football from a TV perspective and for some reason BBJ is her fave - can't wait to see her face as we move through the rivers of fans and into the stadium. Don't expect she'll last the full ninety (In fact I'm not sure she'll even make the bench with magic now fully fit)and I don't want to sicken her either.
So all those enetering through T55-58 - mind your language. Although she's heard more and worse with me braying at Setanta's 2 'live' commentators than she could ever hear at Celtic Park.
Was it the dons support who had the guy dressed up as chicken a wee while ago?

I expect the mysterious guy in the chicken suit is Paul le Hen

Welcome home to Paradise.
Make as much noise as possible at the Huddle, cheer every one of Magic's hat-trick goals, gasp in astonishment at the goal from a Nakamura free-kick, laugh at half-time when it looks like Falkirk are on their way to their first home win of the season, let loose your best swear words when the ref turns down yet another stonewall penalty for us, stay until the final whistle, applaud our heroes off the pitch as they go 16 points clear, raise another cheer when it is confirmed that Falkirk have indeed recorded their first home victory of the season.
Go out on Saturday night and celebrate the fact that for two hours that afternoon you were one of the luckiest 59,000 people on Earth.
That's how I've planned my day going tomorrow.

To Ulysses-McGhee and Number6.
Do what comes naturally but remember in what you do and how you act so will the seeds of the future of Celtic and its support be sown in the minds of your children.
With moistened eyes, I sit here and remember vividly my first visit.
You know how it is when you look at the sun for too long, and then close your eyes you can still see the picture etched on your retina.
Well I close mine I can not only see the vista of Celtic Park, I can also hear the sounds, smell the smells, move with every sway of the crowd, and feel my heart pumping with the dreams of a red hot river in spate as I, sitting on the crush barrier, turned my head to see my Uncles Michael and Peter, hands raised above their head.
They looked at me and smiled because they knew.
I looked at them and smiled because I knew too!
I was 5 years old and it lives with you for ever!

Guys I'm actually meeting up with an old friend before and after the game for a few light libations. He's die hard Dons fan.
I'll ask him about his take on the dislike for the Glasgow clubs and the difference if there is between them.
I'm sure I've discussed this with him before and he said TFOD were definitely looked upon with less favour.
This was mainly down to the Durrant/Simpson thing but also the perception that they stole a lot of their best palyers over the years. Not excxtly sure my self who fits in to this category.
Anyway I'll get an up to date picture from him and maybe post next week, if someone hasn't already posted same.
-
For info;- in case anyone's put off coming down for tomorrow's game, my son in law's just driven down from Aberdeen this afternoon. Despite all the "Stranded In Blizzard Fury" type reports in the news, THE ROADS ARE ABSOLUTELY CLEAR.
If you're coming then head on down now, but if you leave it till tomorrow and end up marooned then I never said a word.
Maybe I shouldn't have told anyone, but the more who come the better the atmosphere and all the more satisfying when Magic gets his third.
-
With regards to the game tomorrow, a single goal victory will suffice for moi!
And i don't care who scores either, so there!!
-
Right it's snowing in Aberdeen and their fans should think twice before travelling,BUT I can't remember the last Saturday home game (must have been a good day :)
So very much looking forward to it.
I remember leaving Coatbridge for Aberdeen one sunny morning and ending up in a snowstorm (wee Harry wearing only the hoops)we got beat 4-1 (Frank McDougall 4 goals) after taking the lead.
And then just to round off the day the electrics on the Phil Coles bus went out so no lights or heating on the way home,so excuse me if I say to our friends in the north dry your ewes (i mean eyes)
-
plato..either that or you're stalking me,like some deranged Vietnam vet with more guns than sense.
Do you think it's more difficult for NTV when the team is doing relatively well?
With the departure of the Great Helmsman and the arrival of the BhoyfromCroy there seemed less urgency for an anti-Board fanzine,and with the M o'N years we could divert our ire away from our own boardroom and aim it at a better target-the boardroom of MIM.

My first game was a wednesday night european game nwith my father, the details of which have gone into the mist. What stays though is going up the steps after the turnstile seeing the lights but not yet the ground, then... an illumination the japanese call it satori - call it what you like. It stays with me forever that and me on the shoulders of (Not a stranger as he was a celtic supporter) the guy next to my dad. The guy had offered so my dad could have a shot at singing and waving without having to worry about me. That's when we shared the look you spoke of - I'm glad to say we shared many more at Celtic park before he passed away - sadly before the MON reign - he would have been so proud.
Anyway to success tomorrow. God Bless us all.

If that comment had come from anyone other than you they would have got both barrels. I do try very hard not to be unpleasant when I come on here and did not consider my post to be offensive in anyway, assuming you’re not an Aberdeen fan of course! If it’s the first poster your referring to then fair enough, perhaps I was a bit harsh. However I feel it’s a responsibility of the first poster on any new blog to at least come on with a few word of interest after they've gotten over the excitement of being 1st. However if you are offended in anyway I apologise.
Martin 42 - thank you for your kind comments.

CELTIC SCORE 24/7,
Celtic's consistency in the SPL in 2006 has seen us score 24 goals in 7 games an average close to three and a half goals per game.
The last two games could be a watershed in the transition of WGS’s squad, with an elusive clean sheet and a stonking eight goals, against opposition where victories are extremely gratifying.
This season however has been marked with unpredictable performances, lets hope the two week break won’t affect the progress and we can continue where we left off!
Celtic 9 – 0 The Northern Enlightened.

Call me cynical but seems coincidental that Bazza announces he needs an op the week of a Scotland game so their KAPITAN (undoubtedly the best midfield player in Scotland) can play half a match.

Kojo,
Agreed after – dare I say it - big John’s cynical elimination in a FRIENDLY you have to say, is it worth it!
Yet as you say we are looking for two quality 11 men teams, the fact is if Celtic are competing with the best the majority of the squad will be ambitious international players.
I know it isn’t always the case in a Celtic supporter (and why should it be?) but I’m a Scotland fan and the fact that the NATIONAL manager doesn’t play his best player and announces that BF is the greatest midfielder in Scotland is a sleight on my nation and our great club.

As a big fan of Not The View, I certainly don’t think it could be termed an ‘anti-Board fanzine’. The name, and origins of the magazine are rooted in its birth, but they have found new direction to keep the magazine relevant.

I see Sheffield United had posted the result of their recent share issue this afternoon:
They raised £1.65m of the anticipated £10.7m issue from the offer. They have underwritten pretty much all of the shortfall, so the money will come in, but this is an incredibly poor take up on the market.
It could be worse, I suppose, Rangers only raise around half than from their fans 18 months ago.

Stop Press, Boruc blunders again!!. Seriously I do not buy the hype about this guy, he is a dodgy keeper. How many is that this season??
Zurawski's Parkhead team-mate, Artur Boruc, fears losing his first-choice position for Poland to Liverpool's Jerzy Dudek.
Boruc blundered to give the US their 1-0 win in Kaiserslautern after Dudek had kept a clean sheet in the first half.
"I made a mistake," admitted Boruc. "I thought I could reach the ball cleanly, but that is no excuse for me.
"It was very disappointing and I'm sorry it ended up meaning a defeat for the team."
