The March international break is one of the most important of the club season. It is when managers and coaches get to take a proper look at the players targeted for the summer transfer window. The Celtic management team will have looked at dozens of players on video since the January window closed, but, this break from domestic football, gives them the chance to do the Grand Tour, their last opportunity before the end of the season.
Having despatched his nearest two rivals away from home, with 10 men, in recent weeks, Brendan Rodgers took enormous pressure off the remainder of the season, which now largely consists of preparing for next month’s Scottish Cup semi-final. Energies will have made a significant switch towards preparing for July’s Champions League qualifiers.
Getting these decisions right can be the difference between success and failure; Brendan will have used his ‘time off’ wisely.

Your comment on frozen Mars Bars, reminded me that I used to love frozen Toffee Crisps. Not had one for years (decades??). Gonna buy a couple tomorrow. I would recommend that everyone tries it.

Remember 2-1 in Amsterdam, the game we were at. Graeme Sinclair played the game of his life that night, man marking Cruyff out the game.

Yes. My mate Gerry Crawley, another Knightswood and Saint Tams FP was at Dumbarton when we signed Sinky. He was in shock. Gerry thought Sinky was the worst player in that Dumbarton team.
Mahe- a lot of frogs at LB until we got a Prince now and again HH

My Mum did the ole frozen mars bar trick years ago and I must admit they were nice. Never done the frozen toffee crisp, so tomorrow’s shopping list sorted.
Frozen vodka good as well :-)

DD. Lol ..
Never mind left backs, whit about right?
Paul Telfer – am I right in saying he didn’t really follow/like football?
We did have some class there over the years. Daniel Fergus, Jim Craig and for pure speed Didier Agathe.
Didier didn’t arrive a Celtic fan, but like others before him, left as one.
“I can’t explain the feeling I had, playing for Celtic. I was like a child, I felt like I was dreaming….I always knew how lucky I was to be there.”
Oh , and he only cost £50,000 fae Hibs.
D66
Big Red Hyndsy was a pal of yours. I sit near him in North Stand. See other Big Red Derek Prentice all the time too. Two good guys.
AoW
Daniel Fergus is my favourie player of all time.
Loved Didier. I also liked Adam Matthews. I would resign Adam for us as cover.
DD
That’s right, not seen any of them for over 30 years mind you.
D :)
Watching Soccer AM, a singer Kerri Watt is on wirh Embrace, she said her dad played at Celtic with Davie Moyes, anyone?
AOW
Didier was a great wing back/ right back for £50K.. Wow
Danny was the best of all of course.
D :)
Telfer preferred golf to football, Naka said he was brilliant for him….
BB
Think he was Andy Watt, a reserve player. Never made it. Read that in NME.
Garry, I didn’t know you liked Danny! Lol
Glad you’re back mate.
Remember going to a certain European game where you got me a ticket as I was stuck?
You had your 2 Polish pals ( how they doin by the way) with you and after the game as we headed for train we met the priest you knew.
He had some students from Barcelona with him and he had taken them to see the Celtic.
That struck a chord with me and still does. It resonates. Keep the faith and spread the faith.
Twas a Celtic night.
Bada, thanks. Thought it was golf, wasn’t sure.
David66 – no argument over Danny-bhoy
Looking at wiki, Alex McNair played right back for 21 years! Must be a record surely :-)
AoW
They are back in Polska.
Father Martin was in my year at Saint Tams and is still a good mate. Hope to see you soon J.
HH
DD- she’s a babe….
BB
I know. It is how I remembered ;))
Goodnight fellow Tims
Hope I can sleep tonight.
Thanks for accepting me onto this wonderful blog/ site, community
God willing I shall annoy you all tomorrow
D :)
I’ve had this crappy bug since I got back from Brunei. I know it’s not man flu as I am too tough to be floored by that ? It is either Malearia or Hebola, but it won’t stop me from going to the game on Saturday or Coias beforehand. It also might be Novichok so I might have to attend in my Gimp suit in case ole Vlad Putin gets the blame.
D66
Great to catch up wi you after 30 years.
Watch that hip.

If expulsion of Russian diplomats is ok because of the SUSPECTED involvement of Russia in two attempted murders, what then the appropriate response to the ACTUAL Britain’s involvement in the ACTUAL murders of 33 People in Dublin and Monaghan bombings in May 1974?
Pog
Sipsini and I were floored for months after seeing you last in Munchen. Dinnae be bringing your your nerve agents into Coias ;))
