Natural order of things to be restored today.
C'mon the Hoops.
-
Darcheville on for Boyd, Ferguson on for Faye. 2 subs at half time, unusual for Smith but they needed the changes.
-
Apparently when Caldwell, Hartley, McManus and Brown reported for training after Paris, Strachan had the players line-up and applaud them into the dressing room.
Nice touch.
The money's on.
4-0 Celtic at 8/1 and 4-0 plus Naka first goal 45/1.
-
Must admit I am genuinely suprised by the half time results and stats....
But I will grab it with both hands this dark dreich morning.......
Sounds like this might just end up a very bright weekend....Whatever the weather....
Roll on the Parlour for breakfast....
-
Only 2 mins into the second half and hey hey, penalty already!
Cousin scores
-
Pen Ramgers - dreadful challenge by Neilson on Ferguson. Stonewaller.
Cousin scores. 2 - 1.
-
That's when they post Paul.
Quite confident they read through the season!!
They must do,they pop out after episodes like Clyde,and that other disaster we had that season,let me remember,when we beat Motherwell in the semi final,and they had the gaul to let them make a game of it.
Sack the manager I think was the call,when we qualified for the Cup Final!!!
What was it?If that had been Rangers they would have beaten us to go into the final,and they would have only been ten victories away from winning the treble and showing up Gordon Strachan for what he really is!!!
That wasn't it word for word,but ye get the drift,
Flicking between the Rangers game and the Portsmouth-Liverpool game.
English game is utter dross.
Both teams are mince.
Was Ferguson injured?
Or was Wattie(copyright,Radio Clyde and the Daily Record) just being too confident after we had humped Hearts?
Definite penalty.Clever play from Ferguson.
-
Officials starting to show their colours.
As I said,time to watch closely
-
I predict Stewart or Neilson will be sent off for Hearts...
Hope I am wrong..
-
Should have been 3-1
-
Cuellar brings down Kingston from behind in a last man challenge....
And only gets a yellow!
-
Is that six yellows to Rangers?

Pen Hearts!

Clear penalty to Hearts

Penalty Hearts!
Stewart to take...
McGregor bit of gamesmanship
And scores! 3-1

3 - 1. Michael Stweart scores pen.
Wild tackle from Hutton. 2nd stonewaller of the day.

Shame it's not a nicer team doing it but all the same I'm happy :-)

lol this has turned into a humping
GREAT STUFF!!!!!

We want 7!

It appears,to beat their "big bruisers"you only have to keep the ball on the deck!!!
Genius eh?

:-( beasley makes it 4-2
-
4-2 Decent play from Rangers.
Good strong diagonal shot.
-
4-2
Rangers sub warming up right beside the goalpost came onto the pitch to retreive the ball out of the net.
Is that not against the rules?
Did Mr Strachan not get pulled up for that against St Mirren?

Kestutis Ivaskevicius
Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

McGregor kicks Hearts player right in the goolies and gets a free kick.
Should have been a penalty and a straight red.
-
McGregor kicks Callum Elliott and takes him out of the game...
And gets away with it.
But a Hearts player gets booked for dissent for good measure!
-
a delberate kick by mc gregor on elliot, no action taken!
except a hearts man booked!!

I got there eventually.
To busy laughing my head off to type properly

I hope wee Gordon watches this match.
Rangers are defending far too high up the pitch, and Hearts are getting all sorts of space in behind.
Just the kind of situation tailor-made for Kenny M.... D'oh!!!

Guys - we are in the best position the club has been for the past 40 years.
Domesticly, we have a better team, and better squad than Rangers. This squad is younger than rangers and will get better. Rangers is elderly and will on the whole not improve. They cannot change this by bringing in many new players as they cannot afford it!
On the other hand, we could go out and concievably spend close to £10m on a player without it being to much of a problem. We have some top young players coming through the ranks, and in WGS, John Park, Peter Lawell and Brian Quinn we have some top people and top business and football brains running the club.
We have not seen anything yet!!
Mon the hoops!!
-
4 mins added time...
Hmmmmmmm
How many goals and sendings off can happen in 4 mins???
-
Mike,
depends if Hearts can be bothered going forward!!!
-
Bring on VFB!!!
-
Too true! FT 4-2
Did Hearts play well? Or did the Rangers Not????
-
Wee Nacho Ned running about like a headless one. Wonder will he (yet again) go running to the press to tell how wonderful he and his team mates all are. I think not! They think its all over it is now!!

Nah, not this time. He'll be too busy travelling the world with the Spanish International team!

The Alan Whicker of the team, or should that be Judith Chalmers.

I remind you all, three weeks ago Celtic beat Hearts 5-0.
And when we drew our fist SPL match of the season we were a hair's breadth from having cracked crests all over the sports pages, and our title challenge was as good as written off on day 1. So what will the meeja make of this?...
A nice emphatic win for the Celtis today will rub it in nicely. 5-0, 6-0, or perhaps even 7-0 will round off a fantastic week!
-
We're playing Gordon's favourite squad today.
Boruc
Wilson Mick caldwell Naylor
Naka Donnati Brown McGeady
Jan Macdonald
He probably seen what happened to Rangers when they rested players.
-
Miketw10,14.25
That is a cracker of a question for the doomsayers..
Hearts played quite well,only quite,which means we were really lucky a couple of weeks ago,and Rangers were quite mince,only quite.
Which means they are better than usual.
I suppose I will have to give that one to doomsayers.

It is okay,even I remember that game!!

Hail Hail guys
GReat result already lets hope we make it count..
Kano
Did you hear setanta are launching on foxtel on the 6th of october?
Hail Hail
-
Sean,I think you are one off with his favourite team.
Get the feeling he would prefer Hartley,for a hard game,before McGeady.
Good weapon to introduce on tired legs.
If Hartley played in that team the way we know he is capable of,that would be quite a scary team for anyone.
-
Not been able to post (particulary busy at work) in the past week or so since finally breaking cover after months of lurking. Hoping not to appear just a fairweather poster!
But I have had several posts not appear, including two where the comments page announced that the post had been saved and would appear ... but didn't. Is this something I'm doing wrong?
-
Aview....
I don't have satelite,or cable TV.
Haven't had since Scottish football was ditched by Foxsports(Australia about five years ago.)
And refuse to pick up Setanta for twice the price of Channel67!!
Quality of picture isn't something that matters a great deal.
Most times I have watched Celtic in the flesh in my adult life,due to liquid intake beforehand,the picture has been less clear than what I now get on the web thingy.
And I see every match(Scottish ones) live,not just some,and I have other means of watching Champions League games.
I feel most of the money that we are expected to pay for Fox is for the "pleasure" of having the EPL.
Frankly,it is not something I am happy about paying for the "pleasure" to watch.
I would rather watch the Scottish,Spanish,German and Dutch leagues in that order,England comes 7 or 8th in my list of leagues when it comes to viewing football for pleasure.
If there is ever a channel which shows ALL Celtic games live on satelite or cable,I will be in on it,otherwise,Channel67 for me.

Dave, it happens from time to time!
Nothing to worry about from your side!
Right enough, it's only ever happened to me once.
-
Wll I got that one to work. What I attempted to post earlier was something like ...
Listening to BBC Scotland online, poor wee Chick who sounds like he's suffering from an awful throat infection, poor wee sowl.
Then I was going to say ... can anyone remind me of how we got on against the Jambos recently? :-)
-
Cheers, Mike. Lovely day in London, innit?
-
Dave...
Don't worry,that happens a lot.
You are doing something on a computer,which is fraut with danger at the best of times.
Recommend copying your posts,before hittng the publish button.
Can be a pain,but if you do a longish post,and it goes away somewhere into the ether.
That is more annoying.
-
Right-click, copy ... good idea. use that in other applications so why didn't I think of it for this ... cheerrs, kano.
Computers and internet are indeed fraught but, on the other hand .... at this moment, behind Richard Gordon and James Traynor droning on, I can clearly hear "oh, they gave us James McGrory and Paul McStay ...."
-
kano
I hear what you are saying...
you can get the basic fox and setanta as an option for $14.95 pcm..
just another option thats all
-
Mornin all,
Good result from Edinburgh this morning. The bhoys will return to their customary spot with a solid win today. No signs of WGS resting any players. Fair play - the bhoys are on a good run - long may it continue.
3-0 today
-
I'm looking forward to this game now. Hope, sorry I'm sure, I'm going to beall Katrina and the waves at FT.
ps hullo to daveinlondon, I think that over the last month the number of new posters has really grown substatially and it makes Paul67s site all the better for it
-
Game on.
-
First time I have had the chance to watch Rangers this season.
They are a tad physical are they not?
Interesting that they looked very poor minus Ferguson...and also that Cuellar looked none to comfortable when it all got a bit quick.
Biggest threat up front seems to come from Darcheville wrestling with defenders and laying it off.
They didn't seem to have much more to offer?
-
Dave,good idea to use the spelling thing too!!!!
I tend to make the mistake of relying on a vodka addled brain.
As you can see the results speak for themselves!!!
-
Dave...
Indeed it is.
Richmond Hill is sunny, sunny. How is Mayfair?
Or are you typing from the yacht???? 80D
-
First shot from ICT easily saved by Boruc
-
Yacht lol; maybe a wee oary-boat on the Serpentine! Lovely day in central London.
Thanks, pauldominic and I agree although it's rather addictive!
Hmmm, the spell-check ...
-
Nice play by Aiden on the touchline. Bhoys now starting to play the ball around
-
35yd effort from Naka high and wide
-
Is it just CH67 or is it very quiet at the game?
-
ICT miss a sitter from 6 yds. Poor marking from Naylor
-
Good chance for ICT,should have scored
-
Donati has started well - very composed on the ball
-
Naylor??!!!
Thought it was big Jan myself!!!!
-
Donati playing well.
Naka losing the ball a bit.
-
McDonald being caught off-side too often. Good spell of pressure there from the bhoys
-
Goal Big Jan
1-0
-
1-0 JVOH
-
Good play by McDonald at the corner flag, pulled the ball inside to Naka who squared it to Brown(?). Browns cross/shot was deflected into the net of JVoH's knee. Clearly intended:)
-
Nice move from back to front ends with a shot over the top from McDonald. Excellent play in midfield so far and Brown hasn't even woke up yet :)
-
Good ball Caldwell,McDonald good control and pass to Naka,shot which hits bi Jan on the thigh and goes in.
Second or third ball from Caldwell which has caused a bit of sonsternation in the ICT defence.
McDonald being a "nuisance".Big Jan doing a Boyd
Wilson and Naylor okay so far.
McManus good so far,Aiden okay so far.
Donati doing well,Brown a wee bit more and Naka a wee bit more,and we will rip them apart.
-
CP sounds a a bit quiet on the radio? Apart from a brief burst of the Fratellis, that is ...
-
Great play by Aiden and McDonald. McD shot just inches wide
-
Aiden,coming into it a bit more,some good play there.
-
The game sounds great on the radio , are the bhoys picking up where they left off you watchers? Feels like the best day of the season so far ,there is a lot of wailing and gnashing of teeth over at the darkside and the sweet scent of Autumn in my nostrils Cway the hoops!!!
-
Header just wide from ICT corner. Dealing with high balls into the box continues to be our most obvious weakness
-
Ceelanes - Yes the bhoys are playing very well.
-
Decent save from Artur. 25yd shot
-
Poor pass from Lee Naylor,gives a Cally player free shot from distance.
-
Decent game so far,ICT playing well.
See how long they can keep it up.
-
Great save from Artur this time. Another high cross not dealt with
-
Corner headed out,first time shot and a TV save from Artur.
-
Bhoys have slowed down the last 10 mins and let them come into the game more.
-
good play agin from Aiden.
Didn't come to much,but good stuff.
-
Good play again from Celtic,Big Jan just couldn't get a shot away.
-
Had to laugh when I heard the mini orcs had pumped their big cousins....quality
-
McD given off-side there - looked on to me. Denied a certain goal
-
Thanks MNCelt ,you can never really tell with these radio lads .
-
-
McDonald unlucky,called offside.
Booking for a trip on Aiden
-
good spell of pressure from ICT. FK to them on edge of box ...
-
...over the top
-
Cally playing well.
Free kick.
High and mighty
-
2-0 Donati
-
Happy days 2-0 Donati
-
Goal Donati - what a goal
-
2-0 Donati. Fratelli time again.
-
The italian lad seems to have something......sheer quality!!
-
Donato beat his man effortlessly in the box then somehow managed to squeeze a shot inside the far post from a very tight angle
-
This is shaping up to be a great wee day.
I AM STRACHAN
-
Oh Massimo!!!
Supoerb move between Donati,McGeady and McDonald,but mostly great work from Donati,
Tight angled shot that may have taken a wee deflection.
Probably flattered by the score,in fact definitely flattered.
But hey,everybody likes to be flattered.
-
Sounds on the radio like Mark Wilson is having a good game. Any comment on his performance?
-
H-T 2-0.
Probably not totally deserved.
2-1 or 2-2 would probably be fairer on the play,but Donati was brilliant for the goal.
That is where the difference is.
-
Wilson is fine at the back.
But not making many overlapping runs,playing the early ball quite a lot,but that has a lot to do with Naka too.
I would have left him out again,and maybe brought him on as a sub on Tuesday.
He needs a break,and now was the only time where it was possible to have one.
Think we will regret it.
-
HT Celtic 2-0 ICT
That was an excellent first half. ICT will feel hard done by, they have played well, but this just emphasizes how well we have played to go in at 2-0. This side has the makings of the best Celtic team I have seen for a long time.
The movement in midfield is superb even though Naka and Brown are having quiet games by their standards. Aiden is looking full of confidence and Donati is proving to be a superb signing by WGS.
The defense looks pretty solid although they have looked at sixes and sevens at times. JVoH and McDonald are getting good service and creating lots of space for the midfield to find scoring opportunities. JVoH looks like he's starting to play better after a slow start to the season.
All in all a great day so far
-
The commentator on C67 today is good.
Paul Hartley will hopefully get a run in the second half
-
Kano,
Mark Wilson hasn't played for 2 weeks.
How much of a break do you reckon he needs???
-
Miketw10
I think he meant Nakamura. :)
-
Whoops! Sorry Kano!
Yeah, see what you mean then!
Did he play Internationals last week?
-
Excellent play by Aiden after a long spell of possession
-
Great play on the left from Aiden again.
Good ball in, header by McDonald straight up in the air,
cleared.
-
Good play again down the left,Aiden and Donati
-
Good cross by Aiden but just a touch too high for McD
-
Great play again from Aiden,great cross and good header from McDonald from six yards,just wide.
-
Shot from ICT just wide. Artur left it and it missed by about 6 inches - good judgement :)
-
Very good shot there from Cally.
Artur was beaten.Close.
This mob play some good stuff.
-
Aiden is having his best game of the season so far. Did well to make space there but pulled his shot wide
-
3-0 Nakamura
Wonder goal apparently.
Anyone confirm?
-
Naka special - 3-0
