    SENTINEL CELTS PLAYER OF THE YEAR 2024-25

     

    RESULTS FROM GAME #16 CELTIC 6 ABERDEEN 0 (CARTER-VICKERS, KYOGO, MAEDA(3), KUHN)

     

     

    Good evening, friends.

     

    What’s that old cliché about semi finals rarely being a good footballing spectacle? We are certainly writing our own story.

     

    Once the dust had settled from the pre-match pyro show, the first 20 minutes of the game were engrossing without being spectacular. Celtic having most of the possession but Aberdeen certainly being up for the fight, aided and abetted by referee Clancy.

     

    The tone changed in the 28th minute and in the half hour which followed. A firm, inswinging corner from the impressive Engels saw Carter-Vickers towering above the Dons defence to bullet home our opener. 4 minutes later and we doubled our lead when Maeda nicked the ball in our own half before galloping forward with the ball, outpacing everyone in his path. Brilliant, determined and ultimately calm, Daizen passed across for Kyogo to take a touch and then blast the ball into the Aberdeen net. We continued our onslaught and just 5 minutes later, our best passing move of the first half resulted in Kuhn playing a great number 10 pass, blindsiding the defender and finding Maeda who dispatched the ball into the net.

     

    Despite our 3 goal lead, Brendan was demanding more and unexpectedly found himself the centre of attention after kicking the ball away, falling head over heels in the process. Booked!

     

    The second half saw no let up and just 3 minutes after the restart a fine solo run by Kuhn saw his shot only parried by the Aberdeen goalkeeper into the path of Maeda who scored his second of the afternoon. 10 minutes later and we scored our 5th goal in a blistering half hour spell. Kuhn was rewarded for his overall performance, curling a fine strike into the top corner of the net.

     

    Whilst remaining totally in control, we waited until the 85th minute before completing the rout. In a great display of symmetry we mirrored our first half finish with the best passing move of the game, great link up play – 28 passes without Aberdeen touching the ball – and a tap in from Maeda to complete his hat trick.

     

    In cup games in recent years I’ve noticed that referees tend to have some sympathy when a team has been well beaten. So I wasn’t surprised when Clancy added on a whopping 7 seconds to the 90 before blowing his full time whistle. Correct score bet folk might have been a little miffed although I doubt that there were many who had invested money on a 7 goal victory!

     

    We have now played 16 games this season, winning 13, drawing 2 and losing 1. We have scored 49 and conceded 14 (domestically it’s 43-6 and in Europe it’s 6-8).

     

    A fine turnout from my supporting voters and a big thank you to the 90 who joined in this time around (a new record, just pipping the 88 for the Atalanta game). And a pretty unanimous top 3 this time around. The total votes cast for each player are as follows, with my own nominations asterisked.

     

     

    Schmeichel: 0

     

    Johnston: 1

     

    Carter-Vickers: 7

     

    Trusty: 1

     

    Valle: 9

     

    McGregor: 3

     

    Engels*: 12

     

    Hatate: 64

     

    Kuhn*: 81

     

    Kyogo: 7

     

    Maeda*: 85

     

    Taylor: 0

     

    Scales: 0

     

    Bernardo: 0

     

    Idah: 0

     

    Forrest: 0

     

     

    And so, the players receiving POINTS for the game against Aberdeen are –

     

    Maeda – 5 points

     

    Kuhn – 4 points

     

    Hatate – 3 points

     

    Engels – 2 points

     

    Valle – 1 point

     

     

    And the overall positions after 16 games played are –

     

    27 points – Kuhn

     

    26 points – Scales

     

    24 points – Hatate and Maeda

     

    20 points – Bernardo and McGregor

     

    18 points – Engels

     

    17 points – Johnston A

     

    13 points – Valle

     

    9 points – McCowan

     

    8 points – Kyogo and Schmeichel

     

    7 points – O’Riley and Trusty

     

    5 points – Taylor

     

    4 points – Carter-Vickers

     

    3 points – Forrest and Idah

     

    1 point – Yang

     

    0 points – Holm, Johnston M., Nawrocki, Palma, Ralston, Turley, Welsh

     

     

    Our third game in 6 days sees us play our 4th game in this season’s Champions league. A home tie against RB Leipzig on Tuesday evening, kick off 8.00pm.

     

    Hail Hail!

    Re their imaginary gf I do think it would matter to them. As would losing to us after losing to spurs within 3 days of each other. Their fixtures are easy until then and so PC will get an easy ride now.

     

     

    For me we have a tough schedule ahead of the cup final. Leipzig Killie a Hertz a Brugge Aberdeen an and Zagreb a and others. They don’t.

     

     

    Our squad will be stretched. After Saturday and Atalanta I really do think we can cope and come out on top in all 3 competitions.

     

     

    ====================

     

    No.No a thrice No B78:-)))

     

    lets NOT acknowledge any narrative of theirs,in whatever form it takes,not even the ex gf hubris.

     

    It’s main thrust is continuity and amnesia as to how the symbol of the union in Scotland done(ripped off) business in Scotland.

     

     

    We have important games before the League Cup final,starting vs.Leipzig on Tues and Killie next weekend.lets look after and work for results in our own right,here and in Europe,I give no signifigance to them,they get fed plenty from their own friends in media who like Rifc barely acknowledge the toileting that went on in 2012.

     

     

    Let’s just work to Jocks adage of a game at a time and things will look after themselves,we put in the work we should get the reward,it’s a positive time to follow Celtic,we have worked hard at all levels in our club to be where we are and that will continue God willing for a while yet.

    Deniabhoy- thanks for your detailed knowledge of what’s happening around Valencia, it’s a hard watch to see what has happened there,HH Good luck to all, Murcia region getting hit as well now

  14. glendalystonsils on

    Interesting to see Brendan raging at the misplaced passes / too many touches on Saturday despite the scintillating football and scoreline . He was seeing Leipzig players in those Aberdeen shirts and making sure the players knew the standards expected of them . No bad thing before Tuesday’s sterner test .

     

    He knows we can do it but also knows what is needed .

    The huns died in 2012,as did their trophy count, end of….

     

    …………………….

     

     

    That only becomes true when those words come “officially” from Celtic FC.

     

     

    Until then it is merely pub talk. He says – She says, territory.

     

     

    What type of club would deny its cheated supporters such closure?

     

     

    What type of fans would accept being mugged off so easily without that necessary “club authorised” piece of the 2012 jigsaw?

     

     

    The crooked Huns got away with the biggest football crime because their main rivals fans are easy meats.

  18. McPhail Bhoy on

    I have just read a match report on Saturday’s semi final on RTÉ, again they report that Celtic had a total overall possession of 53%, can that be accurate? I know we all watch Celtic games with green and white tinted glasses on but that was one of those games which if told we had 70-75% of possession I wouldn’t have been surprised. Looking at the Premier Sports highlights they show Aberdeen’s one shot on target, McGrath’s pass back to Schmeichel in the second half. I know shots on goal don’t tell the whole picture but surely Celtic had significantly more possession than 53%?

  20. Big Jimmy on

    STRIPS….

     

     

    I am positive that during the 1960’s Celtic had TWO ” ALL GREEN” Strips at different times.

     

    One was certainly ” ALL GREEN” which was sometimes referred to as ” The FLOODLIGHT STRIP”. There was NO WHITE on the Strips whatsoever. My DA bought me this Strip….it was MAGIC.

     

     

    The other ” ALL GREEN” Strip was NOT ” ALL GREEN” because it had a White Collar and Cuffs and the Green Socks had Three WHITE Stripes on the Top of each Sock.

     

     

    I can also remember Celtic wearing ( MAYBE in Europe ?) an ” ALL WHITE” Strip…..and the Collar and Cuffs had Three GREEN HOOPS on them, along with the WHITE Socks which had THREE GREEN Hoops on the Top of each sock.

     

     

    I am sure that Celtic wore the ” ALL WHITE” Strip in a European game at Celtic Park….but I cant remember the opposition ?

     

     

    The ” SHAMROCK STRIP” was also CLASS….I had the Jersey back in the 1990’s.

     

    I am sure that Celtic wore the SHAMROCK Strip at Celtic Park at their FIRST Game after John F Kennedy was murdered….again I can remember the opposition but there was defo a ” MINUTES SILENCE ” before Kick Off, with every Celtic player standing to attention. There used to be some Photos on the walls of BAIRDS BAR of the Minutes Silence for JFK ….With BIG YOGI at the Fore Front wearing the Shamrock Strip…standing proud and strong.

    My earlier Post SHOULD have read….In Celtics first game ( At Celtic Park) after the death of JFK, while wearing the Shamrock Strip….I can NOT remember the opposition that grim day.

    I also recall the all green with white trim and all white with green versions which you mention.

     

     

    I only remember actually seeing them worn on one or two occasions mind you.

     

     

    Back then we changed our kit for home games if there was a clash and not away games I seem to remember.

  23. Burnley78 on

    Big Jimmy

     

     

    We definitely wore the all white with green hooped collar and cuffs at the Scottish cup semi v Morton. Late 60s.

  24. The Battered Bunnet on

    The first ‘away’ strip I remember is the all yellow one, which I only ever saw the team wearing at home. 🤷‍♂️

  25. Burnley78 on

    Clubs who have gone bust such as Fiorentina and the like across Europe celebrate the triumphs of previous versions of their club and include them in any historic references. Sometimes with asterisks.

     

     

    Governing bodies do similar. Weirdly Airdrie Scottish cup win in 1924 does seem to have a specific mention of a previous version of Airdrie in the wiki records.

     

     

    My point is the clubs will always see those wins as theirs. In the case of rangers they will always claim them even though they were achieved through questionable means or even cheating. Juventus and others claim theirs.

     

     

    Their ridiculous claim of worlds most successful club is based purely on domestic trophies, it is an imaginary girlfriend for them. We don’t care about it because it is ridiculous but for them it is a remnant of their supremacist past which they cling to. Celtic will overtake their domestic haul by beating them in December. Regardless of what we think it will be another nail in their coffin. It will be even worse when we hopefully level with their 55 come May. They can no longer make their claims and they will be joining in a chase which I am sure we will welcome just as their Bill Struth did back in the 1920s.

     

     

    Personally I think this is yet another positive step toward Espanyolification. I respect others may see it differently.

    Unlike in England the home team changed strip in Scotland if there was a clash up until the 70s I believe.

    Incorrect hun,your wish for ol frim acceptance and authentication will never be ceded to.

     

    -you dont(you would) stand on a jobby on pavement,you walk around it.

     

    – You’ll be of the view they were ‘pitdoon”relegateed’demoteed’ 3 divisions and ‘accepted into’ Scotlands football structure.

     

    Pray tell if they were ‘accepted into’ Scotlands league structure how or why did they happen to be outside?

     

    Celtic will never comment Kevin,they are a different business and confirming or otherwise would get us mixed up in the Rangerses criminality.Your ol frim died kevvy,there are more reasons not to touch that jobby than you have monikers.

     

    You carry on pondering like every hun goin and wonder why the ba was on the hedge? It is a fine example of how business in the union works in Scotland.For how business is done properly look to immigrants who have a continious and ongoing history.now away and sook yir fleg troll

    I remember when Morton and I think Kilmarnock wore blue and white hoops at Parkhead

     

    —————-

     

    Saw Frank Beattie, God rest him, a good friend of my dad’s family, wearing the hoops(blue) on a couple of occasions.

     

     

    Morton I believe had a blue replica of the Celtic jersey in the late sixties when we were at our powerful all-conquering best. HH

    If we win the league cup this year, I’d love to see the club tweet something along the lines of:

     

     

    Two heads might be better than one but one club is better than two… 118 > 114 + 3

     

     

    Petty as fook but given what many of us put up with from them over the years I think I could excuse our lack of restraint on this occasion. I know we really should not mention it at all though but the petty is strong in me today.

     

     

    QB

     

     

    P.S. Not 100% sure these are the right counts; it doesn’t really come to mind as much for us as it means more to them.

     

     

    P.P.S. I’d love to see the bumblebee kit return. Got one in Blackpool many years ago and I loved it. I need a new one as even if an ex hadn’t kept it I’m pretty sure that it wouldn’t fit me these days anyway.

  38. Darwin on

    Just a snippet on Frank Beattie and Celtic. My uncle James used to tell the story of being at Celtic Park for a game v Killie. He was at the front of the Rangers-end when big Frank tackled Jinky just outside the box and a loud crack was heard. Everyone thought the wee man’s leg had gone – but no it was big Frank’s. Jimmy Johnstone was a tough cookie- proved time and again against Rangers and most notably that memorable night v the Argie thugs of Athletico Madrid at Celtic Park. HH

    I was at that game when Frank broke his leg. Later I worked with Jim Cook who was a Celtic fan from Fauldhouse who played for Killie back then. That game was a battle. Killie petitioned the SFA re the ref who lost control. They were a decent side back then and got to European quarters or semi that season. They wore stripes that day and we wore green shirts and white shorts. The silence when franks injury became apparent was eerie. He was never the same player after that.
