    That Hun defence are gonna miss Goldson big time….the Two Chumps as Centre Backs Today ( King and Davies), wont cut it.

     

    I think they two DUDS are there for the taking and will concede Goals.

     

     

    Hopefully ?

    Yesterday’s much improved SPL performance — reasons why?

     

     

    The pressure of the CL being removed from the team?

     

    Hibs playing an expansive game but not being quite good enough?

     

    SH / AB turning on the style plus no 2nd half dip?

     

     

    Anyway — great result / good performance.

     

     

    Jan squad updates — hire the Hibbee TV commentating team.

     

    Very fair / very knowledgeable / very good.

     

    Unlike the hospital radio act on CTV.

    Now that the P/head vs CP debate has went to CAS for arbitration …

     

     

    Another oldie — no skin in the game — when did the Hayshed become the Jungle?

     

     

    Never mentioned by my dad’s generation but there is comment out there in the interweb that the covered terracing opposite the Main Stand was called the “Hayshed” back in the day due to its agricultural roof design.

     

     

    Does anyone have any knowledge of this description?

    I see the Celtic bhoys site ( who’s blue nose site is this ) has Newcastle now after Matt o Riley. Easy solved tell whoever enquires no deal unless £30 million on table . BTW that blog s pure anti Celtic .

    One theory is that the sound of the rain bouncing off the roof was supposed to remind demobbed soldiers of the monsoon rains they experienced in the jungles of the Far East.

     

     

    I favour that argument, but only because it’s bound to annoy the huns’ shipyard commandos.

    P/head development question — related to the Jungle.

     

     

    Did the club ever have plans to replace the Jungle with a new stand?

     

    Not sure the exact timing — late 50’s vs early 60’s vs mid 60’s.

     

     

    Seemingly the plan was to replace the terracing with seats and extend the stand over Janefield Street — not sure if it was going to be on two levels but the new structure was going to extend over Janefield Street to get in the required number of seats.

     

     

    The plan was kiboshed by the council as they didn’t want Janefield Street blocked off or covered over.

     

     

    Anybody got any info on this — missed opportunity vs urban myth?

    OK — sounds a goer to me.

     

    Points to the change happening 45 to 50.

     

     

    Even if you have just made it up — I think it has legs.

    I haven’t made it up. I read it somewhere over the years. It has a ring of authenticity about it.

    Historical questions on previous names for the jungle maybe someone could contact Andrew Smith of the Scotsman ?

  19. Art of War on

    Scotland about to play Italy in Rugby League World Cup.

     

     

    Amateur hour from Beeb with coverage/reporting. National anthems a joke.

     

    Hardly any crowd.

     

     

    Hope game is better, need to learn rules though.

  20. The quiet man on

    Refs don’t need to make big decisions to affect the game. We see it all the time, bookings or not, stopping the game etc

    Janefield Street stand story — comes from comment being made about Portsmouth’s ground vs the state of P/head in the early 60’s.

     

     

    Portsmouth — not a front rank team at the time / not sure — had two substantial stands facing each other along the touchlines and was seemingly a well-managed ground.

     

     

    Working away / industrial gypsy — time spent in Portsmouth / watched a few games.

     

     

    It was acknowledged that P/head was not in great shape at the time but the blame was put on the council for not allowing the club to re-develop the Jungle with a new larger / modern stand.

     

     

    Timings — 1960/62 is my best guess for the conversation.

    EL @ 2.27

     

     

    No problem — it does have an air of credibility about it.

     

     

    Might that be the reason that the GB nick aboot in jungle green jackets?

     

     

    Their military fetishism would not be South Armagh it would be South East Asia.

     

     

    All of to Rangoon / Singapore in the green — might be a song in that.

     

     

    If you know your history.

    You are correct to be totally sceptical,

     

    Our daily loo roll/tabloids/pretenders of it didnae happen have transferred their snidery and sleekitry to trendy Celtic sites who pay the hun at ibrokes to go into hun press and chaos conferences have you ever heard that nonsense.

     

    Ask your guy mick to get into who is at the back of a lot of so called “celtic” sites.

     

    False liars the lot of them jimtim

     

    Then again it meeja,as soon as their shilling is taken they are compromised and guess who the sniders always get directed at.

    After 10 games and after beating sevco 4-0 we are only 2 points ahead.

     

    The referees are keeping things tight at the top. They are doing their job as per their job description.

    Hibs TC Commentary team….NOT so good.

     

    Yesterday it was the Hibs and Celtic great PAT STANTON who was alongside the main Commentator.

     

     

    BOTH did NOT have clue about the Rules when the Hibs player intercepted Joe Harts pass INSIDE the Celtic penalty area. They admitted that they were BOTH confused as to why the Ref blew for a free kick to Celtic.

     

    Ive always had the greatest respect for Pat Stanton, but it would be good to have Commentators actually KNOWING the Rules before getting Cash for comments.

    Very little knowledge on my part … I happened to see the goal last night … only posted once other more knowledgeable posters had answered :-)

  40. Jinkyredstar on

    Re the Jungle/Hayshed – I think Hayshed must have been early on – I started in the early 60’s and it was known as the Jungle. It wasn’t the focus of singing in those days – that came late 70’s.

     

     

    I do recall the ‘men’ on our bus talking about an abandoned plan to extend the ground back into the Cemetery- this could have been linked to an upgrade to the Jungle post war.

  41. Big Jimmy on

    Ive NEVER heard ANY Celtic supporter call the ” Jungle”…the Hayshed ?

     

    In all my years whether at work or play…or mixing with Tens of THOUSANDS of Celtic supporters have I ever heard it to be the so called Hayshed ?

     

    You dont half read some utter Pish on here .

    Afternoon all

     

     

    I was at the game and thoroughly enjoyed most of it. Circumstances- work, family matters- have meant that I have not been to Celtic Park/Parkhead/Paradise since the somewhat stodgy match with Hearts in August, so it was good to see us play so well. Very impressed with the new left wing combination – Greg Taylor has been terrific this season but Bernabei may be a step up in ability. Nice problem for the manager to have to have two cuch good left backs. Haksa has not impressed me much on TV but he was very good yesterday- more direct than Jota (I prefer the Portuguese on the right tbh) and looks as though there is plenty more to come from him. We were markedly less impressive early in the second half- partly because Hibs brought on players who should have been in their starting XI but also because Maeda is not (currently at least) as good as the player he replaced. I had high hopes for Daizen last season and was relieved for him as much as anything else when he scored but his form is scratchy. Mooy really came on to a game in the second half- I’d begun to think he was nothing more than a less hirsute James McCarthy (who has actually also looked quite useful of late) but his passing was very crisp and he is two footed which is rare these days.

     

     

    Absolutely delighted for James Forrest- I had my doubts about the wisdom of keeping him on in the spring- but used sparingly a la Bertie c 69-71 he could be a real benefit to us. I looked at a list of all our players who got 100 goals and there are not many mugs in that company. (All of the 16 others I have seen in the flesh -Divers and Collins playing against us- were terrific players). He’s never been everybody’s cup of tea, but I suspect that as with Charlie Gallagher and Tom Callaghan who had their detractors in my early days of being taken to games, he’ll be recognised as seriously good player when he leaves us.

     

     

    Downsides? Seeing Frank McGarvey, the immortal Sqiggly, brought a lump to this man’s throat. I can only hope and pray he recovers. The refereeing was almost a parody of why I hate Scottish referees -incompetent obviously but 17 fouls by Celtic- the physically smaller team and the won which had the lion’s share of possession- to 7 by Hibs? Dear, oh dear. I only saw the last 10 minutes of the match at Fir Park today and at least twice the visitors were awarded free kicks after the kind of contact that would have seen a free awarded to Motherwell had we been the visiting team. King would have walked had he been in claret and amber too- it does not matter if it was not a goalscoring opportunity, it was a really bad foul. Finally, Joe Hart at goal kicks really has to wise up. I know the manager wants us to keep the tempo going but, especially as Hibs have just nearly pulled the score back to 4-2 a wee bit of a pause would help. Instead for the second time in 6 weeks the stupidity of an opposing player in not waiting for the ball to leave the area (as Turnbull did versus Rangers) has allowed Joe to get away with it.

     

     

    Anyway, I am away to do an ironing.

     

     

    Hail! Hail!
