C'mon the hoops!
-
An auspicious start to the afternoon! Brimming with excitement, now!
-
C E L T I C !!!
-
Tonight is all about the result. The end justifies whatever means we use. As always a pleasing performance like Saturday's would be great, but right now I would quite happily take a game as poor as last night's if the result were the same. Of course that's not what I expect to see.
It's nights like this that football is all about. One last game on which so much depends. From my favourite moment when the CL theme tune rings around Celtic Park and the crowd roars to the final whistle, I will be with 60,000 like minded people enjoying another great Paradise occasion.
This has been a long day. It's been difficult to do any wirk with thoughts of tonight in my head. Now it's finally time to leave for the drive to the game.....
C'mon the hoops!
-
From last thread.
Remember when the vital first goal seems to be elusive
We are LEADING 1-1
Now get to the game and let yourself be heard.
You too Noel
Sorry You ESPECIALLY Noel.
'GG
-
Have always wanted to say, "Round you Noel!" Though I am sure the bolding slowed you down! :)
-
Come on ye Hoops
-
Drat, I can't post on blogger from work but I thought I'd nipped in at the back post for a cheeky wee podium finish as soon as I get in.
C'est la vie.
Tonight, the Moscovites will be unable to withstand the Gale force blast of the Parkhead crowd and shall be defeated 2-0.
Mon the hoops!
-
aw naw, as far as I'm aware, we've only had two European Shoot outs, both ending in defeat. The '72 European Cup semi against Inter after 2 nil nil draws, and Valencia 5 years ago, after both teams won their home legs one nil.
Both these shootouts were at Celtic Park. 8-o
-
if our starting eleven are the same as saturday then we are three players stronger than we were in Moscow.
mcdonald - jvoh 2-0

All my big match options have left me stranded here in Castile.
Is there a CQNer who has Skype and the radio commentary online (UK only) who would let me hook up?
Whitedog did this for me for the title game at Rugby Park. It worked a treat.
Merci
-
Off to the game now but can someone remind me what Martin always says?
Ah yes.
STAND UP FOR THE CHAMPIONS!!!!

Fulltimes from the Early Kickoffs:
Dynamo Kiev 2 FK Sarajevo 0 (Dynamo win 3-0 on agg)
Shakhtar Donetsk 3 FC Salzburg 1 (Shakhtar win 3-2 on agg)
Going to the Ukraine is a potential uncomfotable tie from Pot 4.

At my signal, unleash hell!
Come on CELTIC
-
Celtic, Celtic, That's the team me,
Celtic, Celtic, On to victory,
Their the finest team in Scotland,
And I hope that you'll agree,
They'll never stop 'till they've won the cup,
And the Scottish football league
They come from Bonnie Scotland,
They come from County Cork,
They come from dear old Donegal,
And even from New York,
From every street and Glagsgow,
They proudly make their way,
To a place called dear old Paradise,
And here is what they Say
chorus
There's Fallon, Young and Gemmell,
Who proudly wear the green,
There's Clarke, McNeil and Kennedy,
The best there's ever been,
Jim Johnstone, Murdoch, Chalmers,
John Divers and John Hughes,
AND SIXTY THOUSAND CELTIC FANS,
Who proudly sing the news
-
No hoops tonight? Or is that just the warm-up kit?
-
Strachan: Very excited. Special Nights and fortunate to be the manager.
Form is encouraging going into game. Bhoys happy and comfortable.
Going to go for the win. WOn;t be 0-0. Both teams play 4-4-2.
Will be ignoring the £10m tag on this game.
Interview ends

Hi folks,
Don't know about the rest of you but the waiting is murder. The noise in the stadium seems to be building. For anyone in Ireland who can't get TV, it's on Clyde1.com. Studio guest: Lenny! G'on the wee man!
Hail Hail.
PS 1st post, hi to all.
-
Evening all
-
BBC graphics show Riordan as Riodan. Tsk.
-
Wee bit short of defensive options on bench tonight.
Only O'Dea listed.
Hmmm
'GG
-
Mike, no fear. the Hoops are in evidence!
-
Well it is the hooped strips after all, but with an awful white patch on back for the numbers.
-
Here we go. Spartak in the tunnel waiting on THE CHAMPIONS
-
Teams coming out
-
well, Boruc has Hoops, anyway. Those bloody white shields on teh back of the outfield shirts get bigger every year. :-(
-
Ref just blessed himself.
Where's Duffield?
Minutes applause
-
The referee (Italian) blessed himself at the applause for the Seville player (RIP)
That'll be it then when we win.
Papal conspiracy.
YNWA in voice.
-
Kickoff.
'MON THE HOOPS!!!!!!
-
Lump in the throat time
-
Mozart & Pavluchenko the danger men
Nice round of applause for Antonio Puerta & a softer start to YNWA - more applause - moving
-
bet365 works, legal free good picture english commentary and mac too
-
Spartak seem to be targeting Mark Wilson as their best option to get round our defence
-
Spartak man waltzes through on the right- just underhits the cross - Artur collects
-
Naylor struggling to cope with the pace of the ruskies.
-
They are enjoying the pitch (unfortunately) - again in behind Lee with pace
-
9' JVoH heads a McGeady cross straight at the Keeper.
-
Header on target from JVoH - easily saved
-
This will be an excellent performance if we can beat Spartak
JVOH does well to hold his ground - soft header straight at keeper
-
Slavia 1 up on Ajax. The Dutch need 3 now. Come on the Copenhagen /Zagreb now.
-
Great break by Aiden results in a corner to us...
-
Free header in 6yd box from JVoH but mistimed his header
-
JVOH shoulders one over from 3 yds
-
Ref seems a bit fussy - constant stoppages
-
Good crucnching tackle by Caldwell on Vellinton. Welcome to CP, mate.
-
Good tackle from Donati gets spenalised. FK straight into Arturs' arms
-
Vellinton goes through down the left wing, Superb block by Boruc. Corner Spartak.
-
defence sleeping, player through, but Artur blocks from Welliton
-
Spartak get round behind Wilson and a good block from Artur - forward should have done better
-
Wellinton through in inside left - Artur blocks
If we carry on like this they will score shortly
Scoot B & MaDo second best
-
Terrible miss from McDonald after ball breaks to him in the box. Should have been 1-0 up
-
OOOOOOOOOOOOOO Scott Mcd sclaffs one - should have scored
-
McDonald gets a chance after some interplay with JVoH, but it goes just past the far post.
-
McDonald misses a sitter after being set up by JVoH
-
(against run of play it has to be said)
-
incredible save by Artur again. Should have been a goal.
-
BORUC SAVES ON THE LINE
-
Lenny reckons we're lucky not to be one down.
-
Brlliant stop - Artur & AN Other
-
Benfica are one up in Copenhagen. :-(
-
Lenny's right
-
Wow. They should have scored. Great save by Artur and a clearance from Caldwell(I think). Naylor was skinned for pace there.
Lot's of chances at both ends now
-
20' Corner Celtic

This is not good for the heart.
-

I am afraid Lee continues to struggle, looks unhappy
-
Penalty to Spartak. handball Caldwell on ground
-
Penalty Spartak. poor decsion. Ball bounced onto Caldwell's arm after a sliding block.

Penalty to Spartak after a ball rebounded from Artur

1-0 Scott McD -

Mix up in Spartak box. McDonald scoops to conqueror (geddit?)
Great goal at a good time.
-
Mis-kicked clearance by defender falls perfectly for McD to score easily.
-
SKIPPY!!!!!!!!!!
YA BEAUTY
-
Where's my medication.
This game is raising my blood pressure.
Caldwell booked.
-
GOAAAALLLLL
-
Ajax have pulled one back....one more and they are in the driving seat.....bugga
-
Excellent post-sclaff composure from Scott McD
Mark W hits a poor cross - Gary gets a yellow having been tirned by Wellinton from the clearing headder
60 mins left - GG pass the medication when you're done
-
Corner celts. god work from Nakamura
-
Corner won by Naka ....
-
Comes to nothing. Spartak in posession
-
Ya wee (Antipodean) dancer! Think Lenny lost any future media work with his shout when the goal went in!!
-
Corner after Naka skinned back.
He seems to be getting loads of space.
-
Celtic getting nothing from this referee.
-
Slack ball from Naka invites spartak pressure. McManus gets fouled.
-
Dear God, thank You and to all the saints and angels and to ma Dad too
Hail Hail
-
Spartak going for it now. Comitting players forward (as they have to do)
-
Mike
We don't need the ref
I think GOD is with us.
-
We're 1 up despite not getting into our stride yet. Need one more to settle the nerves
-
Scott B not really featured too much
MaDo doing OK
Naka sometimes looks like he's in slowmo but the rest are even slowermo - puts in good tackle to block cross
10 mins to HT
Naka even slowermo - gets FK
-
Naka does well tracking back.
Concedes throw in.
Wins foul to relieve pressure.
Cyber blood pressure tablets available.
-
Naylor very poor control. Can't get back but blocked by Artur again.
-
Lee indecisive - 40 yds later Artur smothers cross
-
Naylor puts us under pressure after error in midfield.
-
Another mistake by Naylor but covered by a combination of Artur and Mick
-
'gg, pass the tablets.
-
We have not cleared the first defender when in excellent positions to cross
-
Matt - pass the tablets
-
Matt
Toprol on its way.
Although another goal would be more effective.
-
Big tackle from Mick
-
Spartak forward getting treatment after a strong challenge from Mick. Big Mick always steps up his game in these CL tie's
-
Naylor's starting to look like like a Championship player. I was fearing that last season was a flash-in-the-pan. I hope I'm wrong but he's certainly off form and we need cover that side.
Dinamo Zagreb 2-2 Werder Bremen....
Other results not really going for us. Still, let's just focus on our own job.
-
Let's get through to half time and have Gordon put some spirit into our midfield.
-
We are throwing our way down the left side
-
We're one goal away from cetain qualification. So far so good.
BTW I can't see or hear the game :_) I think it's quite good like that.
C'mon the Celts

Fans sound in fine form

Goal for Spartak. I need a drink.

Bad goal.

Naylor has been poor to be fair.
