    Great chat from posters on Sammi-gate. I think the club have got this one just about right in freeing up what is probably a considerable wage to spend elsewhere. Also really pleased with the reception he got today with the crowd responding to his introduction.

     

     

    NL, John Park, Peter Lawwell & co have to ask if 30-33 year old Sammi would make the same contribution over the next few seasons that 23-29 year old Sammi made? I doubt it. And we’ve all been frustrated at times with younger more athletic Sammi at times so I can’t see older, slower Sammi becoming better overnight?

     

     

    And they also then have to come up with a better alternative with the budget… Jury out on that given overall hit/miss rate on forwards recently, but getting it right more often than not is why they are paid the big bucks and I’m pretty sure they’ll get there eventually. We pay our money, we take our chances in the market we’re operating in.

     

     

    Great contribution over recent seasons from Sammi, particularly in Europe, but time to shake hands, wish him the best for the World Cup and beyond and move on.

  2. Evening all

     

     

    Just home. Congrats to Citeh – the best team in the EPL even if I wanted the Reds to win it. Don’t really like the EPL but I thought this was a fine season

     

     

    Lovely afternoon at CP . Excellent atmosphere and after a dull first half good stuff in the second half. Sammi? Enough is probably enough – 74 goals in 252 games suggests an underperformer. But when he was good…He was rather good. Good luck to the big Greek Ghod- ya big daftie.

    How about a ‘would Sammi have voted “Yes” or voted “No” debate’?

  4. Great day down Celtic Way today.

     

     

    Great advert for anyone thinking about not renewing their season ticket.

  5. Sammi got the send off he deserved just a pity there wasn’t more of a fuss over Big Johan though.

    SAMARAS ,

     

     

    When the Italian media asked the Manager of Udinese , Rubentus and AC Milan about Celtic players ———– the answer was Samaras .

  8. Just back fromthe game. Achieved one of lifes musts today before i cop it.A 60year old man in the Green Brigade. Brilliant. Great bunch of young bhoys and lassies.

  9. Told my 8 year old son today how lucky he was to see 3 in a row already . When I first started going I seen 2 championships in 12 years . Great times to be a tim.

  10. Just back in from the game.

     

    Had a few.

     

    Must say I get more emotional as the years go by.

     

    Well done Celtic.

    Manager of the year got his award for services to the Scottish master race in preventing a Celtic league and cup double, rather than for his own team’s modest achievements.

    Best player in your opponents side

     

     

    The media only ask that question in the first place because an informed manager will know from the opposition who has the biggest ego.

     

     

    If the actual best player in the team has no ego, or is a team man, an informed manager will respond that it’s what we do on the pitch that counts, not our opponents.

     

     

    Informed manager use such comments to disrupt the opposition, not to help them win.

    I took a moment on the final whistle just as the jubilation reached its height and saw a sea of colour (those flags made the difference) green & white clad men women and children of the celtic family with utter happiness on the faces of many in our packed home celebrating another title win and this wee text I got not long ago popped into my head.

     

    ” Happiness is not a matter of good fortune or worldly possessions,Its a mental attitude .

     

    It comes from appreciating what we have,instead of miserable about what we dont have.

     

    Its so simple ,yet so difficult for some to comprehend”.

     

     

    Today I was a happy Tim ,soak up every second of it as we are living in good times:)))

  19. My first concern today was First Communions, so I missed getting to the game. When I eventually tuned into the game, the atmosphere and the respect shown to our little hero expressed for me all that is good about the Celtic family.

     

     

    I will refrain from joining in the Sammy debate, but I took note of what Aiden Bhoy said to his lad about how some of us had to wait along time for such joyful moments. As I am old enough to have lived through the Tully, Collins, Evans, etc. era, I am grateful for the good times, but I have stood my ground during the tough times (even those when I did not know I was being cheated out of trophies). So enjoy today and I am sure there is more to come.

    Evening all.

     

     

    The Minx and I have got a few extra Mass cards to take to Belfast tomorrow and dinnae worry the priest has already been paid :-)

     

     

    If you’d like your CQN moniker put on the cards please just post YES and we’ll add your names to the list.

     

     

    All we ask in return is a wee donation to the NI Hospice who had the pleasure of sharing his last few weeks with him.

     

     

    Hail Hail

  21. Just back from game and 5.15 St Leonard’s !!

     

    Marvellous day today magnificent Celtic support and a fitting celebration as Champions at the end ! Three and easy !!

     

    I bet the wee fella enjoyed that today in the arms of the Almighty RIP Oscar xx

  22. It might very difficult to move certain players on due to their contracts,they probably hold the upper hand therefore I think the priority is not to be signing anymore strikers .We can’t just throw money away like we did last season on guys who just haven’t produced.I read a post were someone said sell Balde as we don’t play to his strengths ,what srengths would that be!!!

  23. FAVOURITE UNCLE on

    It’d be like asking David Murray what he thought of himself as a businessman. He could probably fill War & Peace with his thoughts about how magnificent he is.

     

     

    Even though he busted his team.

  25. theglasgowcelticway on

    soukous,

     

     

    Agree.I’ve never understood the esteem in which Balde is held.

    Barcelona really are a tired looking team. Their success and that of the Spanish national team has caught up with the Barca players.

     

     

    But Atletico Madrid may have bottled it – they are 1-0 down to Malaga.

  27. Malaga take the lead in Madrid. If It stays like this, it should be some game in the Camp Nou next week.
