    Chucked the blog for last few weeks of the season as I wanted to enjoy the double :-)

     

     

    Delighted you and the other fans got to see the hoops over in the US of A ….

     

     

    Delighted we are back top of the league 🍀

     

     

    Even if it is week 1 :-)

    Hope you enjoyed the day- I tried to see you among the hospitality guests but was unsuccessful.

     

     

    With all the other financial hits you took in your trip to Glasgow, I hope the Bhoys performance went some way towards putting a bit of sunshine on your trip.

     

     

    All the best

    GFTB re: being delighted for your fellow bhoys.

     

     

    Sipsini and MarsPapa taking care of me last April.

     

    Met MNCELT on Isle of Skye0 and took Looval lover to Celtic Park for first game. 2 nil vs the salt and sauce huns.

     

    Dad and I in Lisbon in June.

     

    Looval lover and I in DC and Notre Dame with her dancing and signing her ass off.

     

    Met MNCELT again and TexasTim.

     

    4-0 on opening day.

     

     

    Had worse days/months/years.

     

     

    Doesn’t get much better over 14 months.

     

     

    Let the haters hate.

    Cracking performance, loads to like,quick sharp passing, movement excellent, Kyogo unlucky not to get a couple, good to see Holm getting on, think there’s a very good player there

    The contact on Kyogo was a foul, therefore a penalty.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    However – it was clear his arm played him offside, when Matt played the ball.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Nothing to see there, for me.

     

     

    You can only be offside, with a part of your body, which can score a goal legally, the lines drawn from the Etch A Sketch mob said it was his arm,?.Unless I am mistaken HH

    Evening all

     

     

    A new Ship Bank. Shipbank Shipwreck will soon be unveiled.

     

    Unless he fails his medical.

     

     

    Nite y’all.

     

    Stay classy

     

    Tell your friends, they’ll like it.

     

    It’s good to be a Tim.

  15. TexasTim on

    Before my bed – there has been some (welcome) debate on my take wrt Kyogo’s penalty claim.

     

     

    My understanding is that you are offside with any part of the body that can legally play the ball; including your upper arm/ shoulder.

     

     

    There are many better scholars of the game here than me, so happy to be set right but my assumption was that was why the penalty wasn’t given.

  18. David66 on

    Good morning all from a rain soaked 17 degree Garngad.

     

     

    We played some nice stuff yesterday with a weaker squad than last year. Never in doubt when we have a manager of Brendan’s class, imagine what he could do if he gets the calibre of player he wants.

     

     

    I said it before a ball is kicked we will win the TREBLE but for Europe we need upgrades.

     

     

    D. :)

  19. Tom McLaughlin on

    Regarding the Kyogo penalty incident, the referee restarted the game with a drop ball to the goalkeeper on the 6-yard line, so there was no offside given against the Celtic striker.

  20. Tom McLaughlin on

    Had a great day yesterday with my son and grandson and the Edinburgh No1 CSC.

     

     

    Noticed quite a few empty seats but being the first week of August, a lot of supporters away on holiday.

     

     

    What did concern me was how the hospitality sections at the rear of the Jock Stein lower and North Stand lower quickky empty in the10 minutes leading up to half-time as they make a mad dash for the free pies. Not a good look, and they missed the second goal.

     

     

    Watched the rerun on Sky at 10pm. Delighted with the win and tbe performance. Top of the league on day 1. Couldn’t have asked for a better start.

  21. Gene on

    Good morning from an overcast North Staffs.

     

     

    Great performance and result yesterday.

     

     

    Fun day ahead with the grandson- he wants to go to the local museum in Hanley. I’ll check it hasn’t been vandalised by the Nazi thugs yesterday.

  22. Big Jimmy on

    Well done Celtic yesterday.

     

    We STILL need some new players of QUALITY.

     

    I can NOT even think about the current Celtic squad in the CL this season… sorry to say UNTIL New players are signed.

     

     

    As a wee Bonus on my Fitba Bets yesterday, I had Celtic to win by the Correct Score of 4 – 0 at 8/1 in a DOUBLE with The Dundee Derby finishing by the score of 2-2 at odds of 10/1 and 11/1 ….along with Two Singles.

     

    Not too shabby.

     

    LOL

    Great shout on the Celtic – Dundee Derby double, great odds too

     

    Good to see the latter fixture return to the SPL, Dundee Utd seem to have made some good signings, and both clubs have proper football managers in Jim Goodwin and Tony Docherty. Got a hunch too that Aberdeen with Jimmy Thelin in charge might move back towards the top six, though could be wrong, will get a better idea after their game at Perth tonight. Hope you’re on the mend

    `We played some nice stuff yesterday with a weaker squad than last year.`

     

     

    5 August 2023 Celtic 4–2 Ross County

     

     

    6 August 2024 Celtic 4 Kilmarnock 0.

     

     

    If players have improved, are we still weaker?

    Spot on man.

     

     

    I made the point recently that the Lisbon Lions were considered to be crap only 3 years earlier. With a great manager and more experience they became world beaters.

     

     

    Too many supporters define ‘weaker’ as having fewer players, even if the remaining players have massively improved from the previous season.

    FAO HOT SMOKED and CELTIC MAC…

     

     

    I have NOT been able to go anywhere for almost 13 weeks due to Bowel and more recently BACK Trouble.

     

    Last week, I suspected that the severe BACK Pain MAY be related to the long term Bowel problem ?

     

    Since last week I have been taking Two Laxative Pills each night, and the Back Pain is NOT as bad as it was.

     

    In the last Two weeks the Back Pain had me ” DOUBLED UP” with me unable to sit down, stand up or walk about in my house, but the Laxatives appear to have eased the Back Pain the last few nights.

     

     

    i have two appointments with the Nurses later this week about ” My Bloods”, I hope that I can manage to get into Taxis to and from the Health Centre ?

     

     

    I am dreading the thought of being put in Hospital for any reason…. as I HATE Hospitals.

     

     

    Thank you to you BOTH for your concerns.

     

    I WON’T be doing any Pole Vaulting for a while…thats for sure.

    As good a weekend as we dared hope for.

     

     

    The 2 biggest title challengers drop points and despite not yet signing Idah and having Maeda missing we comfortably despatch an opponent which was tricky at times last year.

     

     

    Most encouraging was the clear step up in playing style. A marked difference from last season and indeed BR mark 1. Really entertaining football against a team whose only weapon was physical intimidation.

     

     

    Bravery on the ball and bravery taking tackles and challenges but keeping the ball moving.

     

     

    My only concern was if we keep playing like this and don’t get protection from referees we will get quite a few injuries. How Fraser Murray was not booked yesterday for his endeavour is astonishing.

     

     

    Overall. Get Idah in this week, Taylor signed up longer term, use the next 2 or 3 to get Maeda properly fit and Barnardo / Iwata / Holm integrated. Have an option list should MOR depart and ideally as good a physical left sided central defender as we can get.

     

     

    It will be harder to get upgrades on Scales and Taylor than many think IMO. Especially to slot in to the world of Celtic.

     

     

    Assuming we get Idah I am less stressed Re another striker than some. 3 into one starting berth is not so easy to juggle. Maeda can also play his Japanese role in the CL for instance. So we do have options.

    Do you really think our starting 11 was weaker yesterday than last season v Ross Co ?

  34. Tom McLaughlin on

    I was watching a CelticTV video on YouTube entitled “After the Match” which included close-up footage of the players walking in front of the South Stand and applauding the cheering supporters.

     

     

    A beaming Kasper goes up to Matt, puts an arm around his shoulder and clearly says, “How can you walk away from all this?”

     

     

    Matt smiles, shakes his head and turns towards the goalkeeper as he responds, so no chance of deciphering what he said.

     

     

    Another season and a crack at Europe big man. You know it makes sense.

  35. QuadBhoy on

    Morning all,

     

     

    Was good to be back at CP yesterday and the performance by the whole team was fantastic. Hard to believe that was a “weaker” team than we ended last season with. I may yet have to begrudgingly praise BR, even if it sticks in my throat to do so. Here’s hoping we keep the squad we have for one more season and add to it for the campaign ahead.

     

     

    The movement, pressing and work-rate off the ball was miles above most of what I watched last season which was often weak and passive. It was good to see an urgency even for throw ins to get it back in play asap and not dither and slow the game down as much as we seemed to last season.

     

     

    Bar one failure to intervene for the clear penalty (assuming it was deemed onside as I’ve read here that Sky – who can hear the ref-VAR comms – have confirmed) VAR seemed to be less apparent also compared to last season when you felt like they were re-watching every ball in the box looking for anything to the detriment of the game.

     

     

    The tifo looked naff from the North Stand but looked much better watching the highlights back though I’ve still no clue what the stands behind the goal were meant to be?! Also, was the tifo used to cover all the advertising boards around that stadium? Or were these covered before? I only noticed at half time but not sure what that was about?

    Good Morning Fholk…

     

     

    Flag Day Looked an awesome experience- And wit a game

     

     

    Really good football carrying on from the preseason, with one of our tough Scottish Football opponents…

     

     

    Which gives us a wee problem, any three from that lot… Scales and Taylor did great Kuhn really coming onto a game and our Capitaino doing his stuff in the centre of the park, subs came on and did great.

     

     

    But winging it’s way to SENCELPOTY@GMAIL.COM is

    Hail Hail

  38. Parkheadcumsalford on

    Morning, all.

     

     

    While I was delighted with our performance yesterday, I am a fair bit concerned if Scales is to be our left sided CH in Europe. Way too often his passing lets him down, imo. Not only does the pass get intercepted often, he too often chooses the wrong option. In the first half yesterday in particular James Forrest was available for the pass, when Scales had it at his feet. I am sure I could count on the fingers of 1 hand how often Forrest received it.

  40. onenightinlisbon on

    Good performance yesterday. The midfield were excellent and the link up play was sublime at times.

     

     

    Scales had some amount of time on the ball, just imagine what a decent centre back could do with that….

  41. Scaniel on

    Many Thanks for all the updates yesterday. Usually able to hide away in an outbuilding and follow the whole game on CQN, but long lost relations turned up yesterday so confined to sneaky wee peeks every ten minutes or so.

     

    What joy The Famous Glasgow Celtic do bring to our lives.

     

     

    TONTINE TIM from earlier…..I usually hang on to your every word, amazed at your powers of recollection and really enjoy your prose, but

     

    I was led to believe that Steve Clark was a Celtic fan growing up and we were pursuing him whilst at St Mirren, only to be gazumped by Chelsea. I may be wrong….. often am.

     

    H H to all.

    I notice Paddy Power are already paying out on us winning the league already. They know it makes sense.
