Just back…what about the penalty. We in the JS were losing the plot, it looked like a stick on. Why no VAR???
In other news…Yoorop pumping the yoo ess aih in the Ryder Cup…magic…..
Well, clearly, we couldn`t finish a fish supper.
You could count on one hand how many saves did the Hibs GK have to make?
Well done Hibs coming to the Big Giant club in Glasgow, with the Big Giant Supporter base, the Big Giant Balance sheet, the Big Giant Trophy Room.
Giants everywhere they looked apart from the dugoot, the directors box, and the inside of the captain of Celtic’s jersey.
And the Big Giant fake, pretentious, lap around the pitch of the big empty stadium, gritting their teeth, waving at the empty seats above the GB, and that is on Rodgers’s cliquey, sneaky, pretentious, glibness personified, lie your erse aff style of management.
Has he sneakily banned Conny McGlauchlin yet? Eye he wull!
Like he sneakily got Neil Lennon banned from the co-commentator’s role on TNT Sports, Eye he did, NL speaking truths during our 1-7 lesson in Dortmund that Rodgers refused to learn from, and waking sleepy Tims up to what Rodgers really looks like when you take your head out of the sand for 5 minutes?!?!
The Neil Lennon parachute to hasten the Rodgers escape route isny looking very appealing.
Oh well.
Free the George Galloway1 lol

oot!
Now that my annoyance has worn off a bit , I’m actually quite glad Hearts have leapfrogged us and thrown down the goblet (copyright C. Nicholas).
Whether we have a long term title challenge or not, It should focus the minds of players and coaches . Let’s see how we handle a situation we’re not used to.

keevins declares celtic wont win the league
checks calander – 25th september
feckin tube
Keevins…..permanent chip on his shoulder.
Why?
He will always be a poor man’s Jimmy Sanderson …..and he knows it.
We played well and deserved to win but we miss too many chances. When you’re relying on Johnny Kenny to win you the game you are up in trouble. Robertson is a cheating bxxxxxxd but we know that. We dominated from the start but everyone has been scoring against Hibs so no excuses.
I understand BR being careful with Colby but Tony Ralston is just not good enough. Sorry. Plenty of effort but little else. Colby has to start until AJ is back. Kelachi has to score from 6 yards as well but he does get into good positions. Daizen played well today on the right. Luke should also keep his place on the team. Engels started well but his head goes down too easily.
The best defensive duo I’ve ever seen was Miller n McLeish.
Closely followed by Hegarty n Narey.
CCV and Scsles, imo, are now better than both duos and that’s heavy praise.
We’ve lost 3 meaningless goals all season
2 from a corner and only one goal from open play (when CCV wasn’t playing).
Ralston….good game
Sarrachi….very good game.
McCowan n Engels were OK.
Cal….top notch as per.
Iheanacho…was unlucky…defo a good player.
Maeda….his best game this season and should stay on the right.
2 new wingers…..sorry but they will never be regular players for us.
One is half as good as JF and the other is a quarter as good as Jota.
That’s where we are….going yo a long and turgid season.
just back in from the game , thoughts.
what a miserable day , plenty of chances to win and our centre forward should have scored a couple.
No wonder hibs have drawn 5 games already this season , no intention to win the game and played for a draw , anti football will drive fans away , constantly standing in front of our players and falling over holding their heads to stop the game , the time wasting from the goalkeeper was incredible he even goes to the side of his net for a drink of water prior to hold up play , ref even stops play to warn their captain to stop their team time wasting and nothing changed with Hibs slow play , even the ref gets involved in the time wasting by stopping play , players going to take throw-ins then changing their minds and walking away and leaving it someone else , the slowest walk to take any corner kicks they had, I could go on but nothing will change until a stop watch is used to count the mins actually played and adding the proper added time other than making it up depending on what team is playing , to add on 3 mins first half and 4 mins second half was blatent cheating, 6 subs , a var check goal check , constant Hibs time wasting would have all added up to at least double figures .
ref is a cheat but it will never change
If you didn’t see that coming you weren’t paying attention.
Predictions of Hibs and Hearts among others, taking points from Celtic were widespread, in this long hard fought season. The backdrop to the game almost made lost points inevitable, in a shot shy, unrecognisable Celtic match day experience. You could have predicted a draw even inside the first 12 minutes, Hibs knew they had arrived on a good day, and preceded fall down on the job even inside the first half. The referee gave fouls when there weren’t any, he acknowledged the time wasting, but didn’t add any time on.
The lack of goal scoring today ( any old goal ) will haunt this Celtic team, Keletchi Iheanacho fell at the first in his home debut, with a open goal it was harder to hit the bar. Daizen Maeda has now been ineffectual in all of Brendan’s front three positions. this season. Some of Callum McGregor’s three quarter paced shots went in last season not so this, there’s nothing from the outside, or edge of the area.
Seb Tounekti the great white hope, had another good game without a killer ball or shot, but the are are too many other ‘escaped goats’ for regular Celtic supporters to moan about without scraping him. Luke McCowan started brightly, but didn’t take his chance again, an impact sub he remains, Arne Engels form now officially over a cliff.
The staleness in Celtic is palpable, but when you fail to communicate for years and freeze an un sackable manager for his final season, you’ll reap what you sow. I’ve never seen so many empty seats in the Celtic end alone, more apathy, than anarchy on display.
Boolavogue in Chapmans from 5.30pm they’ll likely have boycotters.

Given we had a tough away game on Wednesday, made five changes to the starting line up, and probably had a huge game on Thursday on our minds it was a pretty decent performance.
Decent squad depth and freshness from the 3 Summer signings who started.
Perhaps being in Celtic park would have given me a different perspective.
I thought it was a pretty decent performance, I mean
Even with the most green tinted glasses….
Our centre backs can’t compare to those Aberdeen and Dundee United pairings.
Scales is Derek Whyte level at best.
We do have a pretty average record in the spfl when Reo doesnt play. It’s a slight concern that we miss him as much as we do, especially if he decides hw doesn’t want to hang around after Maeda leaves
our back 4 today , AR imo 3rd in the pecking order absolutely knackered at the end gives 100% effort every game ,but technically he is not good enough, constantly fails to put in a decent cross when required.
LS good defender and able to pass sideways and backwards and repeat but cant start a attack with his forward passing and constantly passes to position.
CCV , why go forward for corners ,maybe he goes up as not to leave him 1 on 1 with an attacker with pace , still doesn’t realise if you grab your direct opponent strip its a foul every time , imo not the player he was ,has body strength and that’s all.
Our left back imo our motm today.
According to Sportscene, Hibs defended very well. I turned the sound down after that. Was there any mention of their time wasting or just falling down to be given fouls by a compliant ref? Was there any examination of the “penalty” incident. Doubt it with Thompson and Naismith being the 2 analysts.

I think Whyte was better at Scales in passing but Scales better in the air. Tbh, when I thought of the most recent good defensive partnership, I ended up at Bobo, Johan and Joos (1+1=3🤔). What a formidable sight they were, especially at away games when you saw them up close. Loved big Bobo.
Don’t mind a wee bit of competition in the league. Keep supporting the team and keep the pressure on changes at the club ✊
Heid and Big Mick were as good
3 days after playing in Belgrade and a much changed side, we had 77% possession, 26 shots, 6 on target, 11 off, 11 attempts from outside the box, we hit the woodwork twice and had 2 offsides, on any other day it could have been 6 or 7, as the Big Mhan used to say, as long as we are making the chances some will eventually go in.
Anyway the same leith outs may do us a favour next weekend at swinecastle.
VVD & Denyar…
Bobo & Mjallby…
Woody….fair enough….all about opinions.
I particularly admired, and more with hindsight, Hegarty n Narey….along with Malpas ,Holt n McAlpine (people forget that Hamish McAlpine played for Celtic)
Add in, Bannon, Sturrock n Milne they were indeed one of the best ever Scottish club sides.
True story….Dundee Utd had a winger who played at CP one night because Bannon or Milne was injured.
Thr guy was amazing in an 80s wingers way and a couple of days after big Billy offered a 6 figure sum to sign him.
Jim MacLean said no and the guy hardly played again for anyone.
I was at the game that I mentioned and I can honestly say the guy was amazing.
The guys name?,,,,,..Graham Payne.
Incidentally I think that the the Payne brothers were/are the only family to have 4 brothers to play in senior football in the Uk
McStay=3
McGinn=3
Wallace=3
Paynr= 4
Crerand, McNeil and Peacock.
Never saw the game today. Seeing some stats that we had one foul. Fine that hard to believe. Can anyone confirm?
×Payne
Aren’t all the referees brothers?….
Loved Narey and Hegarty. Both would have been brilliant with us. We were always linked with Narey, but guess what, we still lacked ambition and foresight then. My best Celtic 11, has a young big Billy (who was a formidable unit then) with the world class George Connelly. Can’t think of a better footballer than George, past present or future who played in defence.
VVD and Denayer were good but to be honest, I would have looked good next to VVD.
I always thought Denayer was a bit overrated.
Balde was only good in a MON team.
Anyway,that’s ma main course arriving and she’s beelin

Fouls committed stats 16-1.

*whit about Fernie, Evans and Peacock
Tontine Tim,
I only remember seeing Willie Fernie when he came back (from Middlesburgh?). Bobby Evans was the 1st Centre Half I remember.
Have to agree about George Connelly. Wish he had been able to fulfil his talent. Great player in defence and attack.
It’s unlikely I’ll ever give Dom Robertson the benefit of the doubt.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39615167
IMHO he should have been chased out of the profession for this one.
But of course – he wasn’t.
The culture was clear.
When in doubt, give it against Celtic.
This Uncle Tim embraced that culture then … and continues to perpetuate it now.
Narey and Hegarty were immense…
I attended KDs testimonial golf day at Cathrin Braes…
Narey and Hegarty played as a team….
I’m a shade under 6’….i was a good bit taller the PH and almost eye level with DN….yet on tv…because they were so commanding….looked MUCH taller…
