So proud of our team, our support and our club. HH
Yessssssss,
Celtic FC – Football for heroes
Fanatic
You are way off with the third goal. A coach looking at that would look to prevent that goal by doing better on the left hand side of our penalty box.
They play a lovely one – two on the edge of the box and get in behind, once Gordon saves you are then in the lap of the gods, the ball breaks perfectly for Nolito, how you can lay blame on Bitton there is madness.
I respect you’re opinion however I think you are twisting the facts to fit your beliefs.
In you’re mind these goals would also be the fault of Scott Brown, which I notice you don’t apportion any blame.
Anyway we got a good result so this Tim is happy. HH

You keep using the word blame.
Your words not mine.
I said Nolito was not tracked.
I repeatedly say the central midfield area.
Since Brown plays there?
I use Browns name in account of Sterlings goal.
You are now being ironic with your twisting facts statement.
Read my original response to VF800A8.
You are also being selective in your responses.
In my original post i said Nir had improved under Brendan and praised his nimble footwork for third and good pass for second.
I did not specifically blame him for goals but merely pointed out the negative aspects to counterbalance another posters praise.
I thought he had a good game tonight and on saturday but still feel he is unsuited to the role he is assigned in the team.
A central midfielder is tasked with creating and protecting the defense.
He did a great job with the first part of his remit but not so good on the second.
Just magnificent for 90 minutes.
Scott Brown – from the very first whistle he was on it at 100% – watch him in the opening seconds as he twists, turns – absolutely at the required pace it’s going to take.
Scott Sinclair – lightning feet, that bhoy. Shame we couldn’t serve him up the space and ball to his feet more than we did – he could have destroyed them.
Moussa Dembele- Hahahahahahaaa. 500k. hahahahahahhaaaa. Spotty Wee Dick Gardner – 1.8 million. ha-ha,ha-ha…etc,etc. Zinedine Zidane will be in for Moussa by the season’s end. Let’s hang on to him. Slap a £50 million price tag on the bhoy. We’ll get it after a few good seasons in the Hoops.
Craig Gordon – OUTSTANDING save in the last minutes. World class. Manuel Neuer pulls that one off, given the deflection, and everyone’s fawning over it; Shot-stopping of the highest order tonight.
KT – the Milky Bar Kid lives.
Kolo Toure – Chess Grandmaster.
The James Forrest replicant we’ve been left with this season – avoid Deckard at all cost, bhoy, you’re on a wonderful renaissance; miles better than the original…
BR – Vindication of your footballing philosophy versus the richest, and best, side in the EPL, utilising a squad 10% of the value of what you worked with down south. The satisfaction must be enormous.
Everybody else – f===ing magic. Take a bow.
THAT’S why they won’t let us into the English & Welsh Premiership – add another tier to the ground, 75,000 every home game and a £100 mill a season share of their trough and we’d have the world’s best players clamouring to play here. We’d have the thing won in 2-3 seasons and never be looking back. And the English know it.
Citeh are riding everything the affluent Southern clubs can throw at them. And then we show up with a gameplan and a growl and their much-trumped record goes to keech.
Fantastic, Celtic.
SANDMAN…….Moussa Dembele for 500k,we should be blushing.
Just love the posts praising brown, saying they didn’t think, best game since, etc etc
In reality has had plenty of games where he is on a par with the big teams…
Only the odd loss of discipline and loss of fitness has hamperedhim in the past…
(Did the MC player actually have a fly kick/trip at him , like his own on Neymar ?)
Our captain, the player’s captain, the manager’s captain, Celtic’s Captain and deservedly so
It must be liberating for Brendan.
Performing his task without the weight of expectation related to ” big name ” players , ” big teams ” and exorbitant levels of remuneration .
All I expected from Brendan was improvement.
That wee wish has been fulfilled.
Xmas wish………….European fitba` post Xmas.
O.K. , Santa ?
MACJAY1 FOR NEIL LENNON
Just watched the highlights of the BMC v Barca game,if we can beat
the Germans at CP and I think we can, we will be in a very strong
position to see post Christmas Euro fitba…….btw my Aussie pal it
was a amazing night at Paradise.
Fanatic
Look at the third goal again, Nolito makes a run of Celtics right side, Bitton is on the left side, when Gordon saves, Nolito is on the move and falls perfect for him, absolutely no fault on Bitton.
Do you agree he is the best we have in the squad for that position?
If so, get off his back, if not, well I will have to console myself that Brendan Rodgers agrees with me that he is the best we have for that role.
Support the players at least until we can get better, 50% off you’re posts are Bitton bashing.

It all seems a bit unreal right now. Almost having to pinch myself.
I suppose the 4.45 am K.O. might be partly to blame.
So good to see so many good people so happy.
Loved to see Rod conducting with his wee man by his side.
Bitton.
Like so many , improving under Brendan.
A transformation from last season.
Improving will do me.
MACJAY1 FOR NEIL LENNON
Had the young Miss with me tonight, her first CL night,she
spent the last 10 mins with her head buried in my chest,I
told her on the way up that if Celtic lost by a couple of goal’s
they would be doing well….ye of little faith eh!!!
C’mon the squirrel ;-)
Nah, seriously,…..I’ve been having vibes for days now that something Magical was in the air.
Well,…..that has to be one of our more Magical nights.
Ah mean, flung into a group with 2 teams who will probably contest the final itself.
Is that possible ?
Who knows ?
Still, we can never be paranoid enough….keep wur guard up!
Was watching the highlights on ITV with Roy Keane etc….
But, a Man City player, canny remember his name but, he’s the baldy dmf who clattered Broony on the halfway line and, when he was being interviewed he said something along the lines of….”Celtic are a far more different side at home,….very different side away from home.”…..But, it was the sleekit-looking-at-the-grun way that he said it as much as….wait till we get them in Manchester!
So,…….Brendan, tonight was just grand and,…..I was about to say that I love you but,……ah canny,…..ah joost canny. Ye see,…..you’ve got me terrified that I might become wan of them,……..ye know who ah mean,……don’t ye,……Brendan ?……Ah canny become wan of them,…….ah joost,…..canny. Ye see,……Brendan,….I’ve lived my life, counselling myself that,…..something bad is lurking under the surface and, when I don’t think like that,…..the bad thing under the surface, waits till I’m no looking and,….bites me on the erse. Paranoia,…….that’s joost the beginning but,….ah canny take up too much of yer time,…..Brendan so, I’ll finish by saying that, I’m terrified of ye Brendan. Totally terrified that you’ll turn me into wan of thaim……a Happy-Clapper!
It’s joost Brilliant tae be terrified ;-)
Oh, and,…..Brendan,…..afore I go away,……ye look far, far, far, far…..cyoooter when you don’t wear yer Scooby-Doo! pyjamas ;-)
Magical, Magical, Magical,…..just, Magical.
Thank you,…..Brendan.

NYE BEVANS’ REBEL SOLDIER on 29TH SEPTEMBER 2016 3:28 AM
Sorry , mate.
Just skyped with no. one son who`s close to volcano land in Canggu beside Bali.
Yer wee lass. Managing expectations is what I do too.
We can handle our own disappointment
Their`s ? A different matter.
Still , all`s well.
It did end well.
:-)
KEVJUNGLE on 29TH SEPTEMBER 2016 3:30 AM
C’mon the squirrel ;-)
Nah, seriously,…..I’ve been having vibes for days now that something Magical was in the air.
=================================================
Well , mate.
You`ve certainly managed to give the opposite impression.
Learn poker.
:-)
morning lads – well the few of you that are on.
like my heart it is sunny and hot in then golden lad today (even though its monsoon time). been off line for a while but must admit last night was great. Mrs Mingalarbar is as some of you know a City fan so it was an interesting early morning shouting match which was all done in the best possible taste!!
its on nights like that that the heart strings tug for a trip back for a European game…..
I think that point could be just the point that could get us a wee game in Europe after Christmas.
anyway i am rambling now.
enjoy
Thurst thirst….a raking thirst that woke me from my dreams….
God I love the Celtic way of mind…..
Jist a wee wan…then back to my dream….
Braw.
MINGALARBAR on 29TH SEPTEMBER 2016 4:40 AM
Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
Well. That`s my excuse.
Magical night for all Tims the world over.
Morning all.
Back to Glasgow today. Still amazed by last night. Thank you Celtic.
Beyond proud of our team and our support.
Off to London on 3 hours sleep. Throat rasping after shouting so much.
Graffiti on the wall says we’re magic….

i agree mate. even my wife was happy with the point for city!! interesting that she tells me the city press are having a go at pep for taking the game lightly by not playing stones!! As i said to her, there is a special kind of dust in the air on European nights at our place for as long as i remember. (obviously there have been dark days/nights!!). i think my first real experience of that was beating Real Madrid 2-0 all those years ago. Better teams than city have gone away empty handed… we can’t explain why and even if we could we would be telling anyone ;o)
In the words if my all time movie hero…James Cagney,,
” MADE IT MA, TOP OF THE WORLD MA” !
Why settle for 3rd?
Wins in our 2 home games and an away win in Germany, 10 points, Barca do City twice and the Germans take a point v City in Germany, leaves City on 5 points, and we’re through with a game to spare.
Simples:-))

Money eh!
2 millionaires arguing over money. Be interesting in a year from now to review the prize money O’Leary gathers this season v last season and see if he’s made the right decision.
I suspect it’ll be a bad move but let’s see.
MINGALARBAR on 29TH SEPTEMBER 2016 5:58 AM
Just watching reruns , mate.
The best parts are the crowd scenes of Tims celebrating.
Just magical .
English football is now indulging in an introspection which is long overdue .
Particularly in relation to the bung culture.
Huns wouldn`t be interested. Unless it was a ” how to ” exercise.
Good days for Tims,mate.
Man. City are a class side. We competed well against them.
One word.
Brendan.
How did CG make that save?
Ivehadtochangemymind
That’s what brilliant goalies do
CraigGordonCSC
Nye Bevans enjoy your day aff, just heading into the office in the wind & rain …. Still smiling :-)
massive victory last night, exhausting just watching it.
I just watched our 2nd goal again, started with a sublime chip from Craig Gordon to Moussa with a fantastic 1st touch. 7 passes in all and then GOAL.
I noticed near the end of the game when a Man City player was taking a corner he was getting lots of stick from the Celtic fans in that corner. Anyone got any idea what that was all about?

Bertie feints before the pass to Willie.
Goal.
Jock or what.
Good morning friends from a completely washed out East Kilbride inhabited by a completely exhausted Jobo of The Standing Section. What an exhilerating 2 hours of entertainment that was!. As BRTH often says, Celtic Park can be a really magical place.
Can’t wait for work…. ;-)
One of those beautiful nights in Paradise.
On nights like that we need Giants , and Giants we got.
SFTB mentioned it yesterday and I think he is right.
There are times when there seems to be an extra presence in Paradise, willing and reenergising those green & white hooped jerseys.
The spirit of Big Jock, of Jimmy McGrory, of John Thomson, of Wee Jimmy , of Tommy Burns, of my Dad and millions of others who have passed.
God bless Celtic
God bless Celtic supporters
Off to work buzzing

I actually dreamed the match again in my sleep.
I just can’t get enough.
