Technically we’re not preseason anymore, but today’s friendly away to Dynamo Dresden is an important step. There are six weeks before the end of August, with five Champions League qualifier match days in that time.
Tuesday’s gentle introduction to competitive challenges was probably a good place to start for Celtic, this week’s run-out at Murrayfield will allow more of the squad to get some miles under their belt, but you can be sure we will meet our match at some point in the next six weeks. It would be better for all that Dresden expose as many weaknesses as possible (at the time of writing that doesn’t look likely).
As usual, the mantra for these occasions is: no injuries.
Legia Warsaw are on league duty this evening. I hope we have someone watching.

Think it’s a bit harsh on Maloney.
Plenty players have chased the cash.
TSD – that is indeed terrible. Doesn’t mean that Israeli slaughter of hundreds of Palestinians is any less wrong though.
Not sure what point you are making. Actually I am – but it’s a pretty weak argument.
You won’t find any Hamas or Isis supporters on here – you are literally trying to justify Israeli slaughter by citing terrible events elsewhere. Poor effort pal. Missing your intended target by miles…..
I knew I should have said to Peter Lawwell today to keep Sammy.
Glad to see he thinks St. Andrews is a good holiday spot for him and his wife.
My friends in Celtic,
Players who have not played in competitive football during the close season should not be injured at this time.
Players who are currently injured ( Scott Brown ) or reputedly injured ( Tony Watt ) must be doing something wrong. Either the training is wrong,the player is doing something wrong or the player is just totally injury prone.
All of the three are just unacceptable and unreliability only tests the patience of all concerned ( Management and fans ).
HH and sorry for being blunt, but this is how I feel season after season.
Greenpinata
You can add our playboy dutchman and wee Forrest to that list, totally agree with you
FFS,
Are you lot fawin oot wi each other again?
Sometimes I despair.
I know that some if the posters on here drive us nuts. But there is a rule.
Good guy,wank.
ive been switherin a lotter on whether to keep reading and posting.
bluntly, the racist overtones of some , makes my blood boil.
direct statements on the irish or fenians, at least i know who they attack.
but the ultra con right wing postings just make me sick to the stomach.
so, stay or go ? react and post , or just ignore.
gets more difficult by the day.
Winning captains had a great, in perspective post today, telling us how p67 has great compassion for all, and knows most persons circumstances, so therefore doesnt just sit in judgement and deny posters their “voice”
thats commendable.
then i listen to gordon j, whos opinion i respect, and advice is good , dont stop posting, cos then they win.
so, what to do next ?
stick or twist.

Really..? When Have I Commented On The Israeli Operation In Gaza..
Or Even Endorsed It…?
Like The Other Marxists Who Pollute This Site….
You Are A Shameless Liar
And A Hypocrite…..
Surprised That Biton Felt Able To Play Today…….
Given The Racist Outpourings He Has Received On This Blog…
And Other ‘Celtic’ Sites..
Didn’t Proudboy Tell Us Last Week….
That He ‘Was Away Off To Fight Against The Israelis..?’

PS…The Deadine For The Jihadist’s Ultimatum…
For Christians To Leave Mosul,Convert To Islam ……..Or Die..
Has Just Passed…
St stivs – I have reacted/responded lately. Have a say and then leave it. No one is going to change their minds so I reckon at least on lookers / lurkers will at least see that for every right wing nut on here there are plenty more decent tolerant Celts -as in real life!
Ignore, respond -whatever, but hang around. I take good long breaks from it now and then. Life is more important than worrying about the likes of our resident UKIPPERS
Fair point Singing Detective.
Middle class Socialists are fixated with Israel but ignore other atrocities worldwide. Although it isn’t so odd: the far Left, as exemplified by the loony UAF/SWP, has a long history of hatred of Jews – just like their friends on the far Right.
I respect the CQN posters, such as Turkeybhoy, who challenge the clique’s bias on this sad issue.
Bizarrely some posters make this an Old Firm issue, if one attempts to understand the troubles facing both sides of the Palestine issue, one is a hun. Weird. One is not a Celtic man unless one slavishly ‘supports’ the people of Palestine.
I feel for the innocents in Gaza as well as in Israel.
UKIPPERS

Winning Captains post today hinted that Mental Health issues may be at the root of one or two of our problem posters. I appreciate the heads up and will try to adopt the same approach I take with other fragile members of our community.
The defence of the Partick Thistle fan everywhere is that one side is as bad as the other.

Stick with what you have the grass is not greener on the other side.

Oh Dear..!
You’ve Shortened Your Moniker……!!!!
Get It Sorted….Now!

TSD – Marxist? In part yes. Proud of it.
Hypocrite? Absolutely not.
Liar? Never. And to be frank I don’t deal with people who want to trade on line insults. I am a pacifist and not a keyboard or real life hard man, but I don’t take being called a liar lightly.
By the way I note you are unable to address the actual points made.
As philvis used to say ‘I win at the internet’
Adios.
Saint Stivs, stay and post, and when you see offensive/racist posts, report them.
Paul67 is happy to be contacted for such, he doesn’t lurk all the time, so relies on posters to self police and ultimately, report to him.
I enjoy posting here too much to allow knuckledraggers force me off.
Saint Stivs
Difficult not to react sometimes, theres a certain blogger who has been posting anti-Irish views constantly, whilst I realise everyone has their own opinion I find his hard to take on this particular site. “get on wi your hurling” bang out of order
HH
Saint Stivs
Stick or twist………….easy mate to answer, fight or flight ? Some of them are trying to bring the blog down, why let Huns win ?
Shouldn’t we get back to football? If you can’t tolerate alternative views, don’t post about contentious subjects.
St stivs – ikippers – a new app for fans of the smoked fish…..
ThAts me for tonight.
Capt. Beef heart – I hope your pal takes note. Issues are discussed by some – insults hurled by others.

Sorry mate but I’ve just returned from mass where the congregation like every other one in Ireland I’ve attended prayed for all Christians currently being attacked and murdered for their faith – we also have a collection to assist these Christians on a regular basis it’s called trocaire but then you wouldn’t know that as your not Irish and do not live in Ireland or attend Mass in Ireland
Now please do everyone a favour and take yourself off !!!
Beefheart
Only way someone cant tolerate alternative views is reacting to someone posting about contentious issues. Lets get back to the football
Robert,
Insults are hurled about all the time .
I don’t have any pals here but am happy to interact with those whom I disagree with.

” you are literally

Well….There’s A BLATANT LIE…
For A Start…
Viva Glasgow Celtic….
Our Scottish Club….
Based In Scotland..!!!!
TSD Has just called a good Celtic Supporter a Shameless Liar & a Hypocrite. Is that acceptable standard of debate. I’m the guy he told to more or less leave Celtic to the UK Supporters and stick with the hurling. Didn’t bother me in the least because I’ve met at least 20 CQN’ers in person and got a great welcome from them all. I am quite confident that I will never meet. TSD, Kojo, macjay, ryecatcher, Captain Beefheart, Smoke & Mirrors, Darwins beautiful idea to name a few. I wonder why is that.
Singing D,
To be precise, Paul 67 shortened it as I had problems logging on. It was a little cumbersome anyway.
i dont believe i will ever meet that guy corkcelt.
lol.
doesnt mean he doesnt exist.
only pullin yir chain bud.
Paul,
Very useful game today I thought, in a game that may even approach the agricultural levels of our own league. Ronny will have learned a lot from this one. Not in the least: let’s get Kris sorted out for the remainder of his playing days and get him swotting for his coaching badges like big John. He’s one for the future.
Funniest thing I’ve read on here in a while: UKipper. Thanks for that. :-))
Saint Stivs. @ 20.26 hrs.
You stay and you post.
Celtic supporters generally have a great reputation for fairness and respond to our own and others adversity when the cause is just.
We are a diverse church ( Like multicultural Britain / Ireland ) with the one common denominator of supporting Celtic.
My own view is that racism is often an incorrect phrase or accusation and that equality is what matters. Equality, non- discrimination and respect for all regardless of Gender or ethnic origin.
IMO, No medieval or present doctrine should compromise this.
We have many professional and wealth creating people on this site. Great, the blog benefits enormously from this.
This is testimony to “Celtic Minded” people achieving equality in society despite many, many old boy networks, secret societies, establishment obstacles etc., etc.
30 years ago this would have been unthinkable and to some of our society it still is.
HH. always in Celtic.
Off Oot….
Behave Yourselves..
listen—a bit of historical knowledge does not go amiss. Read ” Lepanto” by Chesterton. Look on google for “The Gates Of Vienna”. History repeats itself. Why should Nir Biton not offer up a prayer for his family and countrymen? I’m an unreconstructed Provo. It does not make me right. While you’re at it –look up Janissaries.
The bottom line on Nir Biton stirring things up and giving the wind up bloggers ammunition- your nationalistic allegiances are irrelevant to me when you pull on a Celtic strip, just keep them away from social media. Sound fair?
