A comfortable win in the end masked a difficult hour for Celtic at Inverness on Saturday. It was not until Ki Sung-Yeung replaced Georgios Samaras that Celtic were able to prize open the home team. Ki has the range of passing and shot that makes him a formidable attacking threat but he has still to require the consistency of concentration that would make him a certain starter.
After Paddy McCourt appeared on 69 minutes Celtic were well on top. The Irishman brings the double gifts of time and space to the team. He has the ability to take and retain possession despite the close attention of several defenders, allowing others to take up advance positions or relieve pressure on defence.
We’ve tried more midfield formations this season that I can keep track of and despite Ki and McCourt improving Celtic considerably on Saturday I’m not going to insist either is given a starting berth. Both still have more to give, as do the rest of the midfield.

The press also said the same about Neil: – a talented player but with an attitude problem!
Andre should be ok though; he’s not Irish or Catholic… but he is a Tim!
2 out 3 should not be too bad for the press to handle?
Having looked at the Sammi incident a few times, I think the ref got it completely right. MacLean and Dodds talked utter nonsense on BBC Scotland last night. The ICT player DELIBERATELY jumped into Sammi, leading with his elbow. Anyway, why was there no mention whatsoever about the kickings meted out to Forrest, McCourt and Big Dan? Each of them could have been seriously injured. The attacks on them were editted out of the “highlights”. BBC Scotland’s sports department gets worse by the week. Who heads it up? He should be made accountable, after all his department is funded by the licence payers, us.
Celtforlife…,
the strange one for me is, I never asked SoT for his opinion, I was asking posters who continually try and cause division on every subject. I found they could not under any circumstances condemn thei club and the implication for the soldiers.
Most disappeared off the blog and refused to answerthe question, SoT was the first to come up with any counter argument which IMO is full of drivel about distribution and politic, and the idea that the argument is just stupid.
Since then some of the huns who ran away from the question have now returned with the same attitude thinking its enough to say the argument is stupid.
Strange that no other Celtic supporter has involved themselves in this, unless asked, I have asked one Celtic supporter and as far as i’m concerned, who I found out is a real Celtic supporter. Simply because he had absolutely no hesitation in condemning them. There was no quibbling about the distribution of resources, no obfuscation or deflection from the basic premise.

can I redact that?
I should have written… The SCOTTISH press also said this about Neil!
Cant seem to find it in the English press, wonder why?

Should have mentioned Spiers in last post.
His Times article and tweets on the League Cup Final bigotfest were an honest portrayal of what actually happened.
Traynor, MacAskill, Corrigan etc, please take note.
Keevins just said we would find out on Dec 8th what songs are offensive.
And the 8th is the day I thought the hun lost their money, Celtforlife is saying the 9th, not to worry, what’s a day between the hun going bust.
Speirs is only recounting facts,he should not be lauded for it,what was Speirs position during Dougieg

I agree.
Its simple really.
Dont pay your tax then you contribute to the underspend in all government departments ergo less funds for defence means less armour, ammo and kit.
Government committees have consistently said less of the above means more deaths and/or injuries!
That cant be argued against.
Keep fighting the good fight with whomever.
Thats the Celtic way!
Annoying when that happens.
TET
I’ve worked the dates out as the 9th of December from the date of arrestment maybe someone on RTC could verify.
Awe_Naw…

South of Tunis (big surprise)
theres another one need to look back,
so as you can see I’ve only saked the question about 6 or 7 times.
Now I know your a pal of SoT which is probably why its pissed you off :o) and I was yhinking more like sh*t aff a shovel :oD
Trick is I can see no reason for any Celtic supporter to disagree with the baic tennet of the argument.
And your just pissed off because you never thought of it :o)
hail hail
Oh and Mullet & Co.
I suppose there could be some who would argue simply because its me thats asking, I’m not best liked bya few, or hav’nt you noticed :oD
Celtforlife
I’m sure Paulie Walnust posted a few weeks ago it the 8th was the cut off, I could be wrong, so we are both right :>)

I read some where that he has an attitude problem. AKA “Badittu.de”
He can be a little naughty on the field apparently.
We could certainly use a little of that at the minute.

The 8th Dec? Feast of The Immaculate Conception. Holy day of obbly gobbly. We’re on easy street!
A law firm having to take rangers to court to get a sum of under £3000 paid!
The end is nigh…

Thought I heard a guy on snyde saying that the ragers message boards are rife with rumours that CW is going to announce the ragers are insolvent in the next few days .
Could not catch if he was a ragers supporter or tim ,anyone seen anything to confirm this .

No pros. Will let you know.
Canamalar ,
I don’t know SOT any more than I know you. I genuinely miss your other stuff. I love the pair of you and that is why I put my oar in and more importantly I miss your other contributions. We also need to stick together rather than argue over a few degrees of disagreement.
Btw go check out the blog. I was the first to post the poor equipment in Afghanistan connection with hun taxation. Sorry ;-)
You are one guy that I never ignore or skim read …so do me a favour
I imagine that you and SOT will still be in discussion over this at my huns have gone bust garden party such is our nature. ;-)

Yes Speirs is only recounting facts but credit where its due, no one else seems interested in relating these facts.
He is the one journalist who has repeatedly called out the orcs because of their song repertoire.
Fair play to him.

I hadn’t forgotten :>) just never heard anything about finding out about illicit songs on the 8th before.
Don’t like the new TV deal being announced though, seem ominious for a newco me thinks, the OF are alive and kicking.
GDalziel on snyde
says he did not think Wanyama and Dan blended well and Wanyama looks a better midfield player than a CB .That my friends IMO is a prime example of the ragers supporting poodles with air time to talk down our defence whilst at the same time talk up theirs and their players .
Everyone I have spoke to have said Wanyama was MOTM at 19 and not fully fit ,I wonder what this guys opinion would have been had it been Wilson when he was at Ibrokes .

No probs .. I mean.
imagine if ANDRE BLACKMAN had signed for rangers?
well youve got naisy, coisty, greegsy,weiry.
i leave it to your imagination.

The more cynical among us would believe the TV announcement wouldn’t have gone ahead with assurances about the wellbeing of The Southsiders.

Spot on there mhate.
And they get paid for it????????????????
Not sure completely of the ins and outs of the legal system but I thought that to take every debt that they have to court they are running the risk of incurring the debt they owe as well as the legal costs of the aggrieved party (assuming they lose).
If this is the case then this must be the most idiotic way to try and manage the debt but one the CW seems eager to do at every turn.
I would be extremely happy for this to continue if this is the case as they are just hastening their own demise (which can’t come fast enough for me).

Honestly guys ,you have to hear G Dalziel on snyde tonight .I know how the old game works they say something controversial to get guys worked up but tonight this guy really has went over the top .
The most one sided and biased stance from any stand in on the radio for many a year ,he puts Hateley and BFDJ to shame

If it’s the case, I fear that empty stands will be the blog talk in a few months down the line.

Booing of subs?
I thought that was the ICT fans booing Samaras for his “role” in the sending off.
