Balance returning, Magnificent effort

1052

After a tenacious win in Paisley on Friday Celtic were back in the groove last night.  Passing was swift and accurate, movement – perpetual.  It was a quiet game for Kris Commons, which at an earlier time would have meant a game with few chances for Celtic, but the prodding of Johansen, Armstrong and Mackay-Steven ensured Thistle played much of the game trying to chase shadows.

The return from injury of two of our three right backs, Adam Matthews and Darnell Fisher, has given the team better balance, although Adam still looks to be finding his sharpness.

John Guidetti established his early season reputation against Thistle with a League Cup hat trick but that seemed like a lifetime ago last night.  The striker had the odd chance but the terror he inspired in defenders a few months ago has gone.

Enormous thanks to winning bidder for our Open Golf Championship Hospitality competition, which finished a moment ago raising £2050 for our School Kitchen project for Mary’s Meals in Malawi.  Thanks to Eden Mill Distillery and Brewery in St Andrews and all who participated.

It was a stunning effort and the money is now in place to complete the fourth CQN school kitchen!  Well done to all who played their part.

Celtic sponsor, Magners, who have helped from the beginning of this recent school kitchen project, have a competition to play at Lennoxtown and Celtic Park.  You can enter your 7-a-side team into the Magnificent 7s competition before 5pm Wednesday 15th.  It would be good to see CQN represented.  Qualifying round takes place at Lennoxtown on Sunday 26 April with the finals at Celtic Park.

    I don’t love you any more for it.

     

    But I’m very proud of you and impressed by it.

     

    Not sure I could achieve that.

    So do we want John G to stay?

     

     

    If he replaced Stokes, yes. No way should he get large wages though. He has a lot to prove. it is too early to write off Scepovic but we will need a new striker. Ronny has the ability but he needs support from am ambitious board.

    Saltires on the Johnstone theme, my granny’s brother, Dan Armour, had a trial at Celtic and was asked back for a second trial with a view to getting signed up.

     

     

    He was so chuffed about it, went to the pub,had about six too many, felt so rough the following day, he couldn’t travel to Celtic Park and then lost his chance to pull the hoops on.

    Stayed in Reekie for 2 years. Well said.

     

    People are strange by The Doors, is the song that reminds me of my two years living in a beautiful city.

  11. Watching huns v QOS…

     

     

    commentators voices markedly more high pitched and excited whenever Huns are in possession. In fairness to them they do look better under McCall. QOS are 1-0 up. Wallace tries to foul the QOS player before he made the pass that led to goal.. QOS player too wide and holds his hands up to demonstrate no contact on his part Wallace hits the deck appealing as the QOS striker tucks the ball neatly in to the corner of the Hun net. Commentators desperately question was it a foul on Wallace…. That’s what we are up against next season if they make it up….

    QoS 1 Newco 0

     

     

    I still think Newco will not be in the Premiership next season.

     

     

    Don’t see them beating Hibs, Motherwell or Ross County over two legs.

    It was pointed out on here or etims a few months back, the crest on the Ibrox score board is the five star rfc one not the aye ready one for the defunct club.

     

     

    Could this have anything to do with Ashley having rights certain things associated with ‘Rangers’?
