48 hours ago, Celtic fans were in relative equilibrium. Defeat in the League Cup and an injury crisis in central defence put paid to that. Maik Nawrocki injured his hamstring at Rugby Park. He played until the end of the game, doubtlessly conflicted by the team’s predicament, but as Oh did earlier this month, almost certainly exacerbated the damage.
We are four weeks from our fist Champions League game, with only new signing Gustaf Lagerbielke and Liam Scales fit and able to play in central defence. Neither have been tested at that level, or played together, and they need to navigate another month without injury before being considered for action.
Cameron Carter-Vickers has a chance of returning for then but is by no means certain, and as you and I both know, rushing a player back from a hamstring is never a good idea. Yuki Kobayashi should be ready, in the fitness sense, however, reruns of his Ibrox performance from last season will give Brendan Rodgers plenty to consider. Stephen Welsh will be out until the turn of the year.
Reframe this fortune for what it is. Celtic are lucky; this happened during the transfer window when the club are in funds. It is no more than a normal football problem to be addressed. Brendan will have an idea on when Cameron and Maik can be expected return, he will sign others if necessary.

Anybody else find it a little funny that the British museum are complaining about theft?

With all due respect Pablo, I think this is tosh.
Squad management requires maximising the contributions of all in the squad.
75% (3 of 4) of our group one CB compliment are injured.
That’s an increase from 50% (2 of 4) before Sunday and 25% (1 from 4) before Friday training.
If Maik Nawrocki felt his hammy why was he not pulled off the pitch immediately?
Attributing this cumulative phenomenon to “bad luck” is unprofessional.
If we buy a CB on Thursday and he gets injured Monday …
…. are we going to buy another one next Thursday just because we have some dough in the bank?
Arrogant. (IMHO)

I am always around. Good to see you pal.
it should be called “not the british museum”.
nothing british in it.
does anyone know what Kris Boyd is wittering on about on Sky, he is talking at a hunnur miles an hour.
a tad nervous perhaps.

Got fat Sally, Hutton and the dreadful Miller on TNT 🙃
it is on sky sports, not as a package as a free to view.
No idea what that tifo is about although has the words ‘surrender or you’ll die’ from what I can see
McCoist forget to put his teeth in?
Tom

No. What’s funny is they’re NOT complaining about theft, even after an art collector told them he had purchased British Museum items on eBay. The museum management said no, there’s been no theft.
weird one Tom McL. wonder if the people who decided nothing was going on knew something was going on – loads of ebay accounts being deleted tonight I reckon.
Hello is that the Police, I want to report something has been stolen from our museum,
ok, can I have the details please, and do you have any proof of ownership ? a receipt or maybe a donation made by a patron,
em, let me call you back.
McCoist speaking like a bowling club Sean Connery impersonator. He’s either pissed or been at the dentist and the anasthetic is still to wear off.
i go with he is pissed
come for a table in possession
too greedy, and wasteful
everytime i watch cantwell i think imagine him against broony.

That’ll be the ‘Antiques road show aff air then!
Matter of time for PSV tbh
A neutral referee not being well received
hehehehehehe
PSV have enough physical players to nulify them so far. NOt sure we have that.
Injury baloney.
I can confirm that the British museum is the only one in the world that has artifacts purloined from other countries – fact
TavPen booked
McCoist is Foghorn Leghorn.

Have you lost your(elgin)marbles? :-)

The ulster museum in Belfast has a small section called ‘decolonising the museum’. Apart from the irony of such a thing in said museum in said city, I thought it was interesting.
Why does Cantwell always play with a bandaged left hand?
Huns 1 up
Well thats saved a few goats at half time…….
They have played no football at all but are in front. Jeez oh.
PSV continuing where they left off last season. Centre half gifts the huns a goal.
HT.
