The story of the season was all there for us to see at a park in Paisley yesterday. St Mirren dropped deep, they neither wanted not retained the football, yet they somehow managed to get a kick inside the Celtic Penalty area.
That was enough to knock the ball against Greg Taylor’s arm. The referee missed the incident but from the moment the replays were shown until play eventually broke for a VAR intervention several minutes later, we knew the penalty was in the post.
St Mirren have the secret sauce to stifle Celtic. It worked when we last visited in September, 80% possession and a 2-0 defeat. It worked again in the first half, but Charles Dunne’s red card made holding onto the task impossible. Kyogo pounced on his short pass back, Dunne brought the stirker to the ground, it was a red card and another correct decision to rescind the penalty award, as Dunne released the player inches from the 18-yard line.
It took 11 second half minutes for Celtic to equalise, 11 minutes with Liel Abada on the field. He looked like a player released from shackles, constantly darting back and forth looking for the ball, always looking for the goal. For me, he starts on Wednesday.
Great to see Matt O’Riley get a goal too. There is so much to his game already, regular goals is needed to turn him into the finished article.
So far, so good for VAR. If a player fouls an opponent while attempting to play the ball and concedes a penalty, a yellow, not a red card should be shown. If, however, the player fouls while making no attempt to play the ball, the card should be red. Think back to Jeremie Frimpong in the 2019 League Cup Final.
Alex Gogic grabbed Oh’s shirt, the player fell and VAR again called on the referee to review. It was another stonewaller. Don’t get me wrong, in no way wanting to punish a team that can actually give us a difficult game when they are already beaten, but Gogic’s offence was a textbook red card that had been reviewed by VAR. How on earth………

Glad me and the family didn’t have to do the jab thing. Even though it meant missing us beating Ferencvaros at home !
I do hope Ralston gets a bit of game time tomorrow night. Maybe even a start. We do want to lay a marker down for Saturday though so only if he is 100% ready to play.
Burnley78,
I expect he is ready, Not too bothered about him starting 30mins would do just to get some time under his belt.
I have the game on tomorrow night via PPV. It’s on the PPV website pages.
Can’t wait.
As for the Bobby Sands posts. They are great reading. He was a great man.
Just an early reminder that some people can still make Superbru predictions for tomorrow’s 3 midweek games that conclude this week’s total.

Every comment in the media about what they are going to do between now and the start of next season is ALL about selling season tickets. There will now be no end of “feel good” & “shiny objects” types of stories & tales of how long the waiting list is. (Just like Celtic PLC lol ). Season Ticket sales are of the utmost importance to the board now, no show then it’s no go for lots of different facets of the football side of things, por cierto

Lots of WW2 soldiers in that image. I can only imagine what it must have been like to be at a game of football for those lads at that time, hopefully not thinking about heading to war zones after it, por cierto
Internet is back!
I promise you my dear internet, I will never take you for granted again friend.
Fast read back of Covid Quack News this morning,
Canamalar.
I meant to put a smiley after my poor statistical line reading back :-)
You dont understand Canamalar.just accept it on my part.You feel free to theorize,speculate,claim obfuscate and deliberate all you want.i have openly told you i dont partake in covid is/isnae here chat on cqn.it was a thumb-by thro my choice here on cqn( bet yi the mods thinkin can i no dae that wi politics-am tryin) so i will opt out that that ‘reluctant sweep’your balling nicely into something you can ‘other’
Re the snp being the cause of woruld covid yi better wait for one of their crowd to come on.iirc correctly they countered same stat brought by a notsonice unionist to cqn.He was seething and loathing in his racism othering of Scotland on behalf of his union.Scotland and its deaths were weaponized,forgetting his humanity like a good unionist, forgetting English,Welsh and ‘6’ human beings who also died on these isles
Anyway whit happened to ye,back in res12 day you were a class read on Celtic(r12evolving) and top goader
No noo.:-))
Ps wee Angry ffm misses yi, so i have read elsewhere.lol whitaguy!

My point re Novak issue is how utterly ridiculous the situation is. I do understand your point that the rules should not change for him vs number 25 int the world etc.
Zero health risk to the country and yet they persist with the policy is my point. Given what the country it is I guess it is not a surprise.
The hypocrisy stinks though. As you and other pointed out anyone can get into the country without the jabs easily, even me if I cared to go there. It is only because of his profile and status that he actually can’t.
Por Cierto 11.31
It will be phasers to malky in as the meeja market every aspect of their fraud.
operation ‘how comes your no been loyal’? :-) will build assuring(well trying too)thedual identity is
It will get magnified and taken by the dafties as confirmation of their greatness.gullibility imo :-)
I am only looking to next 2 trophies, but make no doubt PC they are a little worried bout our numbers and with Uefa deeming them one of the clubs being watched?you see full on the psychological damage minty brought them with his self harming ways

Aye to everything!!! :)) por cierto
B78
My only point on it is one rule for all.fairness
Novak knows the score.let him take responsibility.And his sports governing body.
The US has its rules.Novak has his.As GG said follow the money.Yon Tennis has a few bucks around it :‐)
He may well be zero risk B78 at this instance in time.but i am sure its a pattern of tests(like the one mates mrs dint take goin to NY for paddies day, she missed one ergo not allowed in.shes far from fit.:-) i was advocating the US rules be enforced and i dont think i advocated avoiding that countries rules would mean no entry.
There may well be hypocrisy B78,but as a state they may well target Novak(not you:-), esp after his Auscapade :-)rank etc last year.Again novak takes no responsibilty for his own individualism
Tennis as a gov body doesnt much either.both knew the score.Maybe the US viewed the oj simpson like coverage from Aus and thought na not havin that.i guess we will find out in time :-)
HH
“Again novak takes no responsibilty for his own individualism”
Novak appealed, the appeal went against him, he said, oh well hopefully next year, no fuss, no drama.
“esp after his Auscapade :-)”
He was given an Australian entry visa based on an exemption request that was ruled on by two separate visa panels, then the govt decided to revoked it after he landed, a day before the tournament started, hardly his fault if the government cant administer their own entry rules consistently or abide by their own visa authority rulings.

Whits B78 fussing bout then swallying a grenade fur then? :-) sumfin to dae wi Tennis! Merits a ban imo :-))
Re auscapade.it did pop on the day as you say but from memory there was a continual escalation of the public pressure which grew as the tounament came nearer. the noise from. them grew surroundin Novaks entry.i guess the state panicked(several did).Thats what states do?
Vinictive nasty spiteful things they are
