  1. The SIX TROPHIES WIN is in a line by The Late Great MATT MCGINN.

     

    His RECORD is called ” THE BHOYS FROM LISBON”…..Try Youtube.

     

    In the song Matt sings…” Sure of Trophy Number SIX”.

     

    Sorry I cant do the Link.

     

    HH

  2. ANY Hun arrested in Seville SHOULD be made to face a RAGING BULL in a Bull Ring as punishment….which begs the question…

     

    ” WHO would win in a fight between a RAGING BULL…..and a RAGING HUN” ?.

     

    LOL.

  3. Good morning from a cloudy North Staffs – lying here looking out of the bedroom window it’s not Lake Como but Now Cop will have to do.

     

     

    An Tearman from last night.

     

    Relieved in a way that we made the playoffs but disappointed that we couldn’t make automatic promotion. It’s going to be difficult – Swindon are always tough but we’ll see.

     

    Looking at the stats from yesterday Exeter had the vast majority of the possession and 17 shots on goal although only 3 on target – but it’s goals that count.

  4. As the old song from The Move starts

     

    “Cast your mind back 10 years……..” But in our case to end of September last year – according to the Huns they were planning title parties already and the SMSM were in full support. Yesterday put that nonsense to bed.

     

     

    Well done Ange and the bhoys for a remarkable turnaround.

     

     

    Championees

     

     

    Better get up

    Excellent day out yesterday, superb result ! met some of the best CQN folk before and after the game, a significant title to secure for Ange, With the news, confirmed C/L direct group stage qualification through the efforts of Ange, the club has money to back transfer business, Ange should receive full backing, the football squad requires some upgrading for C/L games, PL deadwood likes of 12 mil Barkas & Ajeti require moving on with others, it should be a busy transfer window

     

     

    Congrats to Irish Nationalist Sinn Fein on becoming the largest party at Stormont a truly historic win against the odds as explained below by BBC lewis Goodall, some majorities aren’t supposed to happen, the Empire rigs the system

    Consolation in Wales for Labour Mark Drakeford is a genuine Labour socialist no tory councils…..

     

    In my local council it was a better together red/blue/orange mob…………….an Orange cult

     

     

    aff oot

  6. Rangers are the only club in European football history to win a European trophy and be banned from competing the next season due to the mayhem they caused in Barcelona.

     

    Will sevco be the second team from govan to achieve this dubious honour.

     

    Win or lose in Seville, I think there will be serious disorder.

    Rumour has it we might not get the trophy till next season. The SPFL are still trying to find out what pawn shop it’s in

  8. Tim Malone Will Tell on

    Some good posts regarding Celtic and Sevco’s contrasting fortunes in Europe regardibg board strategy and priorities.

     

     

    One thing that we can definitely take on board is how to better use the Bosman system for inbound transfers – something that Sevco have done pretty well in recent years.

     

     

    Too many seem to equate “backing Ange” with spending money on transfer fees. A few more Matt O’Riley type signings is a far better use of limited funds but maybe doesn’t grab the headlines. It’s a big fitba world and there are a hell of a lot of decent players out there who could improve in a better team. Scouting, coaching and fitness conditioning need to be our focus for improvement – not splurging money for the sake of headlines.

  9. Weebobbycollins on

    “Well Ange, how does it feel to win your 55th title in your first season?”

  10. Great to more or less get it over the line yesterday.

     

     

    I backed Ange from the start (nice to make money off the bookies who gave 2-1 at one stage on us winning the league).

     

     

    We shouldn’t forget the refereeing was ramped up this season (with the predicted compliance of the smsm) to ridiculous levels, but the manager, coaches and players raised their levels to combat it. Huge ammount of credit deserved, and, for me, the entertaining way we play makes the league win all the more joyful. Only Celtic, in Scotland, have the dna to win whilst entertaining. It’s the Celtic way and we are in for more joy imo with a second season of pre-season training, settled players and development of the system knowledge and dynamics🍀

  11. Is should be reminded that Ange signed mostly players who are young and have room to develope, he mentioned their age when questioned over his signings, CL a different level, however, I don’t buy this rhetoric (msm and trying to divide the support and that he needs spend specific amounts- designed to take the joy out of a great campaign) just sign the right technical players with the correct attitude and mindset.

  12. Key moments in the season

     

     

    28 July 2021

     

    Calum Mcgregor’s strike against Midtjylland. His quality goal set down a marker for the incoming Celtic players.

     

     

    4 October 2021

     

    Back on the winning road again with that late goal from Jota at Pittodrie

     

     

    15 December 2021

     

    Anthony Ralston with a 97th minute salmon leap to head the winner at Ross County when we were playing with 10 men

     

     

    19 December 2021

     

    Kyogo turns the tables on Hibs in the League Cup Final at Hampden

     

     

    29 January 2022

     

    Liel Abada’s last minute goal, with Celtic down to 10 men again, finally overcoming a resistant Dundee Utd at Parkhead

     

     

    2/2/22

     

    On this magical day Reo Hatate burst onto the scene and brought back memories of Nakamura

     

     

    19th of March 2022

     

    Giakou nets his second hat trick to confirm himself as a Celtic striker of promise

     

     

    3/4/22

     

    The old one-two at Ibrox. A game that had to be won and it was.

     

     

    8th of May 2022

     

    Player of the year Jota sets up the Duracell Bunny Maeda to send us on our way to the title

     

     

    10/10 for Joe Hart, Juranovic, Carl Starfelt, CCV and Taylor for being the best defence in the league.

     

     

    Stand Up For The Champions!!!!!!

  13. I’ve been saying the same for long enough.

     

    It’s not all about spending money.

     

    It’s about good scouting and recruitment.

     

    Now we have a son of Lawwell in to replace someone who left 18 months ago, maybe we will improve in this area.

     

    There are plenty of free transfers out there.

  14. Yesterday was Nerves vs Confidence.

     

     

    Very slow start — them scoring was not a surprise.

     

    The problem was the possibility of a second and it was a close call.

     

    Penalty / sending off against us was also on the agenda.

     

    Very poor start.

     

     

    We upped our game but the wasteful gene was on show so the tension mounted.

     

    After 29 minutes it looked as if a draw was going to be a struggle.

     

    We lacked focus and then there was the issue of luck.

     

    CG was saving the difficult shots — ball going loose as always.

     

    But by way of some luck not landing at our feet.

     

     

    All the ingredients for a massive let-down.

     

    However we plugged away and class won out in the end.

     

     

    Issue is that we are not a confident support.

     

    It is not enough to get ahead — we need to be 2 or 3 goals in front before we relax.

     

    Not good — as the recent CL / EuL atmospheres prove.

     

     

    It is not the rustling of sweety papers that is to be heard.

     

    It is the rustle of worry beads.

  15. I thought Calum was outstanding again yesterday.

     

    Just think how good he will be when pushed further forward into his more natural position.

  16. As a man of a certain vintage it is a big issue to me — something has to be done about the standing section.

     

     

    Watching the game yesterday — surprised at the number of empty seats on show.

     

    Wondered if the early kick-off had put off some out of towners with transport difficulties.

     

    Or even people off on holiday using a BH week to save on days off.

     

     

    Then there were pictures of the standing section which told the full story.

     

    The area is massively overcrowded with densities similar to the Jungle in its prime.

     

    People are leaving their normal seats to wangle access into the standing section.

     

     

    The stupidity of youth can never be underestimated — the divorce courts are full of it — and the situation in the standing section as seen yesterday is an accident waiting to happen.

     

     

    Needs to stopped — we have responsibilities as pathfinders with this new innovation and if we muck it up and it will happen then we are wasting it for ourselves and also for others. Wee nasally no marks and their acolytes will have their excuses at the ready but people need to be saved from their own endeavours.

     

     

    When it finally goes wrong they won’t be there to clean up the mess / staff the hospitals / organise the funerals and it we just leave the mess where it landed it will start to smell come the next home game.

     

     

    Consequently not big and not clever.

     

    Shambles in plain sight — needs fixed or eliminated.

  17. Had to leave right on the final whistle so didn’t get a chance to give a last comment on the game after my amateurish attempts at giving live updates. Think I’ll leave it to the experts next time.

     

    It’s funny how a slow start impacts your feelings for the whole game, I thought it was about 5 or ten minutes but some felt it was up to a half hour.

     

    Reo has been getting a bit of stick lately for running on empty, think Ange sees him as being crucial to his system. We look more fluent with him in the side.

     

    It’s been an incredible run of form, our win at ibrox in light of the start they had in that game , very similar to their euro games, was remarkable.

     

    Yes we need a few additions to the team but Ange seems to have that covered. Looks like it will be against a strong opposition next season , don’t think they’re going to live within their means anytime soon. Ange and this Celtic team have shown us they have the stomach for the fight, up to us to back them all the way.

    You made your mind up bout Ange yet?

     

     

    Or you awaiting to see how this summer window goes

     

     

    Just wondering

    Excellent

  20. Politics alert — Politics in the 6 counties.

     

     

    I think that Thursday’s election in the 6 counties was transformational / huge step forward.

     

    The rise of the AP and the decline of sectarian voting — baby steps but still progress.

     

     

    Not quite getting the SF luv — they did well but the Creationists fell off a cliff.

     

     

    Nat / Rep vote = 43% in 97?

     

    Nat / Rep / Micro Marxist vote = 39% in 2022.

     

    It is almost as demographics don’t matter anymore.

     

     

    Not really a triumph for UI / 32 county point of view.

     

    Just a case that the “Unionists who go to confession” vote is getting bigger.

     

    I fear that the Middle Income Chapel cohort is turning all LibDem with their AP dalliances.

     

    Happy to see then voting on issues but horrible that it is an austerity lite viewpoint.

     

     

    I think the SDLP need to brush up on the words of the Red Flag — working class unionist non creationists / anti Brexit types are homeless at the moment.

  21. Mitchy

     

     

    I think ice cream vans in the standing section would be a bad idea.

     

    You should really attend a game

     

    You would find the standing section is full of young educated Celts well versed in Celtics history.

     

    They don’t need anonymous non attending telly watchers grandstanding on a minor celtic forum

     

    You can guess their reply.

  22. B67 @ 10.59

     

     

    I thought that DT had quite a lot of good play yesterday.

     

    One of the slow starters who took a bit of time to get the rest of the team notice that he was on the park.

     

     

    However once it started to flow he then played some good stuff.

     

    I think he played better than MO’R who struggles at times.

     

     

    The pigeon toed running stance is a big bugbear for me.

     

    Plus he looks shattered with all the high intensity training we are doing.

     

     

    MF is still a work in progress.

     

    We have 3 lead singers but no backing vocalists on the park.

     

    Works sometimes but does leave us a bit exposed.

  23. Toaty Trumper @ 11.19

     

     

    The trendy vicar vibe in all its glory.

     

    Not good.

     

     

    City bean counters don’t usually do emotion.

     

    And they know the difference between two and seven.

     

    I fear you are all over the place at the moment.

     

    I wonder why?
