  1. Thought I’d sleep on our victory and performance last night before commenting.

     

     

    We are (bad word)ing good eh?!

     

     

    Professional, strong, invincible.

     

     

    We tend to destroy teams back to front forcing them to chase the ball and slowly tire them into submission.

     

     

    My only complaint is that sometimes we could tire teams out quicker by playing one touch football rather than the control and passing game being coached.

     

     

    It’s not much of a complaint really because domestically our game is far superior to any opponent. But for CL we need to prepare using our domestic games as practice for a faster, one touch game as the time a player gets on the ball at that level is far less, where the option to control and pass allied with the vision is not always there as teams are on top of our defence far quicker.

     

     

    Broonie, NTCHAMP, Forrest, Bitton, Lustig, KT and Sinky were our best performers last night with Broonie just stealing the MOM for me.

     

     

    Leigh is a work horse. As a striker he does so much running, pulling defenders all over the place, opening up space for our midfield to attack. His contibution is priceless. Even when not always on score sheet. I don’t think this is always appreciated by us.

     

    I also enjoyed him joining in on Zombie nation.

  2. Our half year results tell us nothing apart from revenue received and that we managed to spend most of it. The detail is missing. Why do the club report to IFRSs requirements but are then able to exclude the detail required by IFRSs?

    Very happy with that result and performance last night,and not a bit surprised by the Dundee huns kicking us all over the place.

     

     

    Nor that the ref allowed/encouraged it.

     

     

    ON will be a marked man now from referees,they know he can dish it out.

     

     

    Good wee warm-up for Saturday,and for Anderlecht. And with a very strong squad available,I’m as near to a happyclapper as I’ve ever been!

    Your a good sport Macjay. If I dont get reasonable discourse between they’ll ban Paddy and his songs;-)

     

    We’re not so far apart you and I. God bless and those belonging.

    Good result last night, onwards and upwards.

  7. AN OMEN ?

     

     

    This Saturday lunchtime Celtic will be going for “57” when we go to Ipox.

     

    In ’57……Celtic hammered the Hun by 7 goals to 1.

     

    As I posted yesterday, one of my correct score bets for Saturdays Hunskelping ( Hopefully) is 7-1 to The Hoops @ 400/1 with bet365.

     

     

    Could it be ?………..Oh Lord let it Be !

     

     

    If so, I may intentially drink “57” pints of Beer in celebration between Saturday and Sunday ?

     

     

    Bring it on Celts.

    Mate.

     

     

    We`re not at all apart .

     

    I wish for Paddy all he or she wishes for him or herself.

     

    The end in common.

     

    The means we might discuss further. :-)

     

     

    Thanks for your good wishes.

  10. Good morning, friends.

     

     

    For me that’s Broonie been MOTM for the last 2 games. The hat trick is on.

     

     

    A wee reminder that Last Man Standing is back. I’ll post the usual drivel at lunchtime but if you know the drill from before and want to join just drop a ‘can I play’ email to cqnpredictor@gmail.com and we’ll get back to you over the coming weekend. Competition will start on Friday 29th September.

     

     

    Off to work…

    Yep. Good point.

     

     

    Not sure that he has really been tested though.

     

     

    I thought Dorus may have been a message for Craig Gordon to shape up , which he has.

     

    ———————————————————————

     

    I think you’re right – Dorus was brought in as competition for Craig. I think Craig is a great shot stopper – as we saw at the weekend. Not sure we’ve seen enough of Dorus to make a judgement other than when he first came in and didn;t look to be an improvement

    Dens Park the land that time forgot..

     

    ………………………

     

    Good Wan mate…LOL

     

     

    I missed the “tackle/challenge” or “foul” by Calmac on McGowan late on….however considering the number of times those Dens Dinosaurs had put the boot into Celtic players, it would have been a sore one for Calmac and us to take IF he had been sent off.

     

     

    Dirty Dens……EBT McCann GIRFUY !

  14. VFR800 is now a Monster 821 on

    That was a superb professional performance last night. Ntcham and Brown (MoM) were fantastic.Completely controlled the game.

     

     

    In the second half we just kept possession and had them chasing shadows.

     

     

    Dreadful tackle on Ntcham,matched by Callum’s dreadful tackle on McGowan.

     

     

    We are light years ahead of anything in Scotland and I suspect we will destroy Der Hun on Saturday.

     

     

    HT – Brendan said before the game that Dembele was saved for Saturday. Rather than have him rest and play last night he wanted him to train hard all week and get his strength up. A huns-skelping awaits.

    Broony’s been brilliant. Anderlecht’s calling. If he takes his foot off the throat of Der Hun scum for one second on Saturday I want answers.

    Absolutely. He’s improved every player he inherited and the guys he’s brought in have been very high quality. I look forward to every game – it’s a dynamic team to watch and great entertainment.

  18. Don’t intend to be unduly negative in what is a great Celtic time…..

     

     

    Am I wrong in thinking we haven’t been as dynamic and as overpoweringly forceful as we were on many occasions last season?

     

     

    I know it’s early in the season and there is much to admire about performing well while not out of 3rd but I have concerns it’s become too easy for us. Can’t shake off the feeling that an attitude of ‘it will turn out alright’ is creeping in.

     

     

    I hope our management team are working the guys hard behind the scenes.

     

     

    I’m probably being too Victor Meldrew.

  19. Boyatta is back and looking good but what about the faultless display of Nir , I don’t think he misplaced a single pass. Obviously not up against the strongest opponent but he did very ok.

  22. This situation with joso worries me , it seems he is constantly injured or unable to play on certain surfaces . He has the makings of an outstanding CH , and is badly needed and missed when he is not playing , which seems to be too often for my liking .

    I get the impression that , for Brendan , every domestic game is an experimental chop and change . Exactly what we should wish for.

     

    Perhaps that would explain your perceived lack of dynamism .

     

     

    Domestic ham and eggers . Blood the young `uns.

    For God sake Macjay, thats the last thing we need right now, ahead of Saturday….. bleedin heart liberalism.

     

    Let’s go for it ffs, God can sort out Der Huns feelings as he’s casting them out to hell.

    There is also the possibility that we are just getting used to our dynamic and forceful displays. Apparently, it takes 18 months for Lottery Winners to feel pretty much as they did before winning.
