    My god, speechless !!!!!!!!

     

     

    Big Billy says ‘ there’s a fairy tale about this club’

     

     

    How right is the big Billy?

  2. ....PFayr on

    Gents

     

     

    Consider this

     

     

    No Brown,Izzy,Hooper …and a half fit Samaras

     

     

    Also Forrest & Lassad injured

     

     

    Kids on the bench

     

     

    And…we beat the mighty Barca.

    Evening folks.

     

     

    Where do you start to try to sum up a special night like this. 125 years anniversary yesterday. Special display by the fans before and during the game. Special display by the team.

     

     

    Great organisation, hard work, a bit of luck, great goalkeeping, dodgy refereeing decisions (well that’s always a given :o) and the usual squeky bum time at the end as we hung on for one of the most famous victories in our history.

     

     

    Hail, Hail, the Celtic Football Family, still making history after 125 years, and still going strong.

    Would I be correct in saying that Barca now need to win games to ensure they win the group? Can’t be bad for us ;)

  8. DeniaBhoy on

    Remember all the guys one here in the summer saying Lenny should forget about Foster as the big man didn’t want to play for us . . .

    James Forrest is Neil Lennon! We are ALL Neil Lennon!

    Greatest night I can ever remember as a Celtic fan, and I am stuck at home, stone cold sober, and tired enough to fall into bed and sleep for a week.

     

     

    Yet I am buzzing. This is what drug addicts must feel like shooting up …

     

     

    Tomorrow I will write about this, probably a lot, but tonight I am just … blown away.

     

     

    Magnificent.

    We have a tactical Maestro in charge of first team affairs and an incredible structure that has been steadily built up since Fergus brought the Club back from the brink. It is not rocket science that when one club has 60000 and another has 50000 supporters then the longer things go then the wider the gap grows.

     

     

    I hope all those that have drifted away realise that Celtic have been seriously cheated and noone was more aware of this than the Celtic hierarchy. I hope they all drift back and we can grow the Stadium. ;)

  10. rangers are not my favourite team csc on

    well done celtic

     

    brilliant result

     

    beating probably the best club side ever

  12. Geordie Munro on

    Snake, and if they dont and spartak get a sneaky draw on the plastic you can be sure they’ll have all guns blazing for the Portuguesers ;)

  15. rothbhoy on

    ONE HELL OF A NIGHT! BRILLIANT performances alround – Mikael Lustig SUPERB before he went off, Big Vic – what more can ya say?, Tony Watt – night he’ll never forget, Fraser in goal – FANTISTICO!!!!!

     

     

    Without a shadow of doubt, one of our BEST EVER performances in Europe!!!!!

     

     

    CONGRATULATIONS BHOYS – SUPERB FROM START TO FINISH!

  16. jackie mac on

    Wtf happened tonight – that was a depleted squad ! What has lennie done. Work like hell against benfica and we can get a point

  18. Zbyszek on

    snake plissken

     

     

    That will be tough game for Barcelona in Moscow. Temperature between +5 and -10 C and artificial pitch.

    Mathews…..the best game he has played for the hoops especially out of position but I am not going to pick out any individual this was TOTALLY a team perfomance.

     

     

    Neil Lennon got his tactics bang on tonight.

     

     

    Hail Hail to our Celtic family all over the world tonight

    Is Tony Watt from Coatbridge?

     

     

    He has that look of winningness about him. (thumbsup)

     

    ————–

     

    Coatdyke I think so Airdrie has a claim on him also. :-)

    Joseph Barton ‏@Joey7Barton

     

    Made up for Celtic tonight. Deserved that after how they played in the Camp Nou last week. What an atmosphere…

  23. badbhoybubby on

    To Peter Lawell,

     

     

    Get this whole team tied down on 5 year contracts. It could be destined for even more greatness!!

  24. Glendalystonsils likes a mr whippy with his lime green jelly on

    Dammit! Fell asleep and missed the game. Had a dream that we beat Barca 2-1.

     

    How did the game go?

  25. thecarfintim on

    I an sorry Celtic F.C for not having confidence in you’s although it appears to be a good luck charm,+1 12/5 goal, wham bham thank you :)

  27. curly on

    4 wins in qualifying, 2 wins and one draw in the group stages so far (and unlucky to lose the other).

     

     

    A good year so far.

    Happy birthday Neil and the Bhoys! From Rocky O Reilly’s Bar, Prague. Am hugging strangers …

  32. rothbhoy on

    Tony Watt? The toast of Coatbridge and Celtic fans all over the World tonight!

     

     

    Well done TONY!!!!! Oh yeah, the BEST is yet to come….

  33. PeteTheBeat on

    Remember I said Celtic were 10 to 1?

     

     

    Guess who had £50 on it!!

     

     

    10 to 1 for Celtic at home is an insult.

  34. starry plough on

    I’m speechless at Lenny’s Young Lions as a former full back who played on the left as a right footer I thought Adam Matthews was magnificent tonight as was Big Mick, a true team performance, everyone playing for everyone else but the Celtic Support must be given a huge credit for tonight even on the computer I could see the greatest atmosphere ever at Celtic Park…

  35. pggtips2 on

    No words for how magnificent that performance was.

     

     

    A year or so ago I said it was possible for Celtic to be competitive against Barcelona by running off the ball, blocking crosses, double tracking, covering back and they did all of that and much more.

     

     

    Special mention for the goalscorers and for Fraser Forster but everyone in the team was magnificent in their application.

     

     

    Giving 110% is overused but today it is justified.

     

     

    We’re a score draw v Benfica (barring a Spartak miracle v Barca) away from the last 16 and unless Spartak get a result v Barca we’re at least in the Europa just now.

     

     

    What a performance!

     

     

    Matched only by the fans!

     

     

    The atmosphere v Helsingsborgs was something really special, it was surpassed tonight.

     

     

    60,000 and 13 heroes tonight, not counting all of the backroom team who also deserve the greatest of praise.

  36. SonsOfErin on

    Group is shaping up very nicely. Barca now have to win the next game against Spartak to cement qualification, we may lose away to Benfica leaving it all down the the last games.

     

     

    Spartak, having nothing to play for and never good travellers, will send a weak team to Celtic. Barca, regardless of their qualification, will not lose at home to Benfica.

     

     

    Final positions –

     

     

    Barca – 15 pts

     

    Celtic – 10 pts

     

    Benfica 7 pts

     

    Spartak – 3 pts

    There are still a few Daily Record readers on here……………sadly.

     

    Tomorrow it will be all about which EPL nonentities are swooping for our superstars.

     

    Forget the naysayers and savour the moment.
