  1. !!BADA BING!! on 7TH NOVEMBER 2023 11:06 PM

     

     

    Totally agree

     

     

    I hope Brendan tries a 5-4-1 at Lazio

     

     

    We’ll be out by then. Start the experiment this year. Don’t wait till next

  2. Tbh, the difference in our play after Maeda went off was cataclysmic. Maeda is an elite athlete and kept their whole right side occupied. I was going ape shit when I saw them clammering for a yellow card. Red. Oh shit. Really disappointed in our second half performance but we really needed 11 v 11 in a competition against a good team. Pissed off we made them look like world beaters. Anyone on here going to AGM?

    Lambert 14 Calling posters on here scum is way out of order.

     

     

    I suggest you apologise fro that now.

     

     

    *nae chance as lambeg 14 will be away back tae fascist fascist tae tell all his family how he would th tims up again.

     

     

    Never said this before but Paul 67 time tae ban creeps like tis sine die

  4. Bada Bing,

     

    Totally agree.I said earlier,4-4-2 ,nearly the same.Away in Europe we cant line up as if we are playing Linfield.

  5. Hugh Dullas is a RACIST working for a Racist organisation and his seed/apple has not fell far from the tree, so yes he has his filthy hands on any referees that do our games in europe.

     

    If anyone believes different they need all our pity.

     

    May god bless them with a brain cell.

     

     

    D :)

  6. glendalystonsils on

    I don’t know if Dallas snr is complicit . But I do know he would do us a bad turn if he possibly could .

     

     

    And he’ll be delighted with tonight’s result .

  7. I hate to say it but the huns default shape when defending in last few years is a million times better than ours

  8. Maeda might well be”An elite athlete”but just not at football.He is a headless chicken,who,I have witnessed in his time with us do 3 very good things.Goal at Easter Rd,goal at Livi.Cross for Jota.

     

    Tonight he had 3 chances,one on one,and chose to knock the ball back 20 yards.Put in the clear to cross the ball,twice in great position,and failed to beat the 1st man,a very regular part of his game.His other favourite is being in great position to cross,and. blootering the ball out for a shy on the far side.We have all groaned at it.

     

    MON praising him before the game forgetting he had a very similar,dunderhead of a winger,Agathe,who he converted to a terrific FB.The guy runs about they tell me,so does Martin Boyle at Hibs,Matondo at thems,does not make them good enough for us.CF or nothing for him.Japan coach has him sussed.

    Could we not have done that in the summer.

     

     

    By the way don’t turn up at Celtic Park on Saturday, as our games on Sunday

  10. Making a wee bit progress at home, and better Celtic teams have lost badly in Spain, and fact is we’ve never won over there, and won’t do with ten men either. No excuse for losing six though. Said before we lack leadership in the face of adversity, and no easy solution to that. That said we still have to try and get something out of our last two CL games, for our presence of mind. See Stephen Welsh was back in the squad, I think he can make a half decent defensive midfielder, physically strong, not bad in the air and can make a forward pass. Get him in against Lazio, and hope he doesn’t get sent himself by some referee looking to curry favour with the UEFA cabal. Rome? They canny say we’ve never won there, we’re up there wi Hannibal in that town!

  11. Hi,

     

    Am in Madrid.

     

    This a small comment within the bigger picture but worrying all the same.

     

    We were seated in the corner where the Celtic subs were going through some stretching ,running and warming up at half time

     

    David Turnbull and to a lesser extent Mickey Johnston , danced to the music and messed about during the warm up. Turnbull especially took the Mick: missing out exercises, half hearted effort when he did and all the while laughing it off.

     

    Of course this lack of intensity ( in comparison with others who were following the coaches urgings) wasn’t the decisive factor in the big scheme of things, but when he came on my heart sank.

     

    Keep up with the goals David because your attitude for a losing side was unimpressive and I wondered how long it has been like this.

     

     

    The manager was on at the end, shaking the oppositions hands and commiserating with our players. Good behaviour in defeat and a worthy representative of the club.

     

     

    A sore one.

  12. the final game v Feyenoord should be interesting …

     

    likely to be out of europe with 1 point, bottom of the group, zero atmosphere, versus a team who have plenty to play for…

  13. Back to Basics - Glass Half Full on

    Tough to take.

     

     

    Red card very harsh.

     

     

    Made a difficult task impossible.

     

     

    Mañana.

  14. Turkeybhoy,

     

    Totally agree re Daizen. I was frustrated with his decision making before he was sent off tonight.

     

    During the first half on Saturday in Dingwall Alistair Johnston overlappped several times only

     

    For Maeda to cut in left into a wall of defenders each time.I thought the coaches would fix this at half time but nothing changed. Either he’s not being properly coached or he’s not listening. His play could improve materially if his decision making improved.

  15. Aberdeen cannae handle Euro games then a weekend game. The Jam Farts couldnae last Season.

     

     

    We need to respond well.

     

     

    I hope we never play them again, AM, there was one challenge where the forward went right through Greg from behind, nothing given.

     

     

    They have some superb players but to me they are a nasty team and I hope they get deserved comeuppance, the sooner the better.

  16. 14:30 might I may or may not do Sunday

     

     

    Regards the Chemical Brothers Light show. Spiffing.

     

     

    Hardcore Uproar.

     

     

     

    Best Light show Ever.

  17. The Chemical Brothers Sonics I didnae kniw so much The Light show wizardy.

     

     

     

    If I wasd – Keyboad – I’d be going insane.

     

     

     

    Trust me – we urnae far away frae Cardinal Winning a Massive Trophy. Daizen is A Magical player for Celtic.

  18. FORMER Celtic boss Gordon Strachan reckons the worst thing the Hoops could do in the white hot atmosphere of the Civitas Metropolitano tonight is change from their usual game.

     

     

    Atletico – who twice came back to draw in Glasgow in the previous Champions League matchday- were shock 2-1 losers to Las Palmas in Gran Canaria on Friday evening.

     

     

    That was a shock to the system for Diego Simeone’s usually smoothly functioning side – and Strachan feels that Celtic must stick to their usual game plan

     

     

    He told ICE36: “The horrible thing about this game is that Atletico were beaten at the weekend in La Liga.

     

     

    “They don’t often lose two games in a row – they will want to respond.

     

     

    “They are a team that are masters of the dark arts. Beelzebub!

     

     

    “Even at the end of the Celtic match where all their players just walked off – they’re the embodiment of their manager.”

     

     

    Asked precisely what the Hoops should do this evening, Strachan replied: “Don’t rush.

     

     

    “I don’t think that they need to make any drastic changes to how they would approach this game and, sometimes, if you make too many changes as a manager in terms of tactics or personnel, players get spooked.

     

     

    “You don’t want to create doubts in the players’ minds where they start to think that the manager doesn’t trust them to play their normal game – I’ve done that before as a manager in Europe.

     

     

    “You then realise, actually, if we play our game, on occasions the opponent isn’t that good and that gives everyone even more confidence because you played the game on your terms.

     

     

    “It’s like standing up to a bully at school. You have to put your own mark on it – sometimes you’ll have to take a couple of hits.”

     

     

     

    When VAR is doing that……. The Smallest Nations have nae chance. LMFAO.

  19. Melbourne Mick on

    Hello again all you young rebels

     

     

    Well! that was hard to take bhoys, hoped for a backs to

     

    the wall narrow victory, or a fighting draw, not a total

     

    wipeout like last night.

     

    Suppose we could make excuses, that referee for a start,

     

    but let’s be honest, the champions league is beyond us

     

    as competitors never mind winners.

     

    Everyone’s had their say regards the reasons, should buy

     

    better players, go to another league, blah, blah, isn’t going

     

    to happen.

     

    Until the football landscape changes we are stuck in the

     

    SPHell and like some poster said previously “ Make sure

     

    we keep winning our own wee shitty league and keep

     

    taking their millions “

     

    Sorry for a depressing post, but at least I’ll be back positive

     

    when we face the dandy’s at the weekend 🇮🇪💚

    “Easterhouse was not built in a day,you know.”

     

     

    Easterhouse was BUILT!!! Well I never! :)) por cierto

  21. Couldn’t do this last night too scunnered ….I noticed a few were enjoying the pain though…sticks out a mile …anyway as people have mentioned…lack of physicality..even CCV looks ordinary in a physical sense in these games …it is no surprise our most recent successes in last 20 years was a physical team …we conceded FIVE fouls last night ….sorry but that is criminal…..giving fouls away breaks up play …we really are rubbish at the dark arts ..surrounding refs …etc ….not worth criticising individuals apart from ref who was shocking….from Slovakia I believe….no top 5 country’s ref’s available?…or Dutch, Belgium or Scandinavian…

  22. GLENDALYSTONSILS on 7TH NOVEMBER 2023 9:51 PM

     

    Ref reckons it’s safe enough now to yellow card one of them . Oh has not stopped running or trying .

     

    …………..

     

    SPOT ON Mate.

     

    I havent been ” OHs” biggest fan, but last night he really tried to put himself about when he came on for the 2nd half.

     

    It was a dismal night for the Celts, and the Ref and VAR Crew were shocking, but as I watched the whole game, there was ONE issue that left me totally BAFFLED ?

     

    NOT ONE Celt appeared ABLE to take the ball in and keep possession ( Apart from the first 10 minutes), and with the exception of the young Bhoy ” OH”, who showed real desire and some skill in his 2nd half appearance.

     

     

    I Posted yesterday that ” I feared the worst” BEFORE the game, and for once I was sadly….. correct.

     

     

    SIMONE and his Mob are VILE CHEATS…..NOT any better than Mourinho and his Porto team from 20 years ago.

     

     

    DESPITE last night….When my Heid came off my pillow this morning, I was STILL a Celtic supporter.

     

     

    When are the Celtic Board gonna call out the CHEATING by Match Officials ( At home and abroad) ?

     

    HH

  23. I am glad we have 5 days to get back on track. Really hating dead rubbers at the end of a champions league. A win for us in Italy when nothing is expected would change that of course.

  24. Big jimmy

     

     

    I do agree with much of what you said.

     

     

    However

     

     

    Sadly Celtic did call out this referee 8 years ago both publicly and officially.

     

     

    What happened as a result ?

     

     

    Well we saw it last night. UEFA appointed a guy who is not really rated in his own country, where VAR is not used fully, in a poorly attended league, who may well harbour a grudge against us. Sadly.

  25. What a painful evening that was for most of us on here .

     

    Interesting, reading big Virgil rated this ref as the worst he’d ever seen after receiving 2 yellows cards for very little against Inter

     

    Doubt Dallas senior had any input selecting him last night , he doesn’t hate us that much … surely .

     

    Personally, VAR is killing my love for the game .

     

    Becoming a farce at home and in Europe

  26. Big Jimmy. Agree entirely with you about big Oh. Ran his heart out throughout the second half. Compare that to Turnbull who didn’t break sweat. Oh deserves a run in the team.
