  1. Quad:

     

     

    In answer to your question… “No” it didn’t hold these guys back.

     

     

    But they are outliers (The defenders). They are exceptional talents (a wee bit like Frimpong in fact) who are so good, their lack of height was compensated by superb technical ability/speed/athleticism/whatever else.

     

     

    Taylor for me, is miles off that. I would start ElHamed too, but I think we really need a better left back. I think Greg is the weakest player in our starting team for the reasons I outlined above.

     

     

    Striker is a different story entirely. I think small guys can thrive there. Gary Hooper in his spell with us, is another example – not a big guy.They have to be strong though, especially if they are playing up top on their own as most Scottish teams tend to. (And a lot of other countries too).

     

    I don’t follow English football, but I am guessing Man City employ more than 1 striker… If only to get as much of their talent on the pitch as possible!

     

     

    Levein gave a good insight into why a lone striker has to be physically strong on Sunday after the Livi game on radio Scotland. He is annoying, but he clearly knows a lot about football.

     

     

    Cheers

  2. Luxcelt Elhamed is defo our right back now

     

     

    what do we do with Frimpong? give him the chance at that right midfield i saw him against aberdeen at xmas at home play in role , he was hitting byline one minute and then tackling back next

     

    JF is 29 now and seems to wearing Charlie nicholas size shorts now. never seem a game that frimpong is invisible unlike mr undroppable

     

     

    Up front get Griffs fit end off we know he plays well with eddie

     

     

    left back agree we got 25M pound for KT bought a Dud via PL and JK then bought taylor. need better there

  3. Good morning bhoys and ghirls from a dry but slightly hungover Garngad

     

     

    A great performance last night, but let’s remember the opposition.

     

    That said it was still a great performance.

     

     

    Big Jimmy – Well done with the bet, I know you will enjoy the winnings.

     

     

    Bada – great news about Lottery- enjoy.

     

     

    Right coffee over shower time. Why do I drink midweek….. ☹😥😥

     

     

    HH

     

     

    D :)

  4. Woohoo, well done Bada Bing and Big Jimmy.

     

     

    Great night, a full house of socially distancing Tim’s watching us win 6 -0.

     

     

    How can anyone complain. ? However it’s a blog and we all have opinions.

     

    I would have rested Scott Brown.

     

    I would have gone with 2 upfront from the start.

     

    We got a wee bit careless towards the end.

     

     

    But overall, delighted with a professional approach and execution.

     

     

    HH to all, the journey continues.

     

     

    PS : Linfield out of the CL is a wee bonus.

  5. Just found out, that Gavin Williamson is married to a teacher…..you couldn’t make it up…

  6. Good Morning all

     

    Good result for the Bhoys against less than stellar opposition, but you can only play the team against you. What about JF on the left and Frimpong on the right, with Elhamed at RB. Or, alternatively, Elhamed at LB, or left side of a 3. Presuming he can stay fit of course.

     

    HH

  7. Congratulations to Bada and Big Jimmy on their good results also.

     

     

    And great to see TET/Father Jack back posting.

     

     

    HH

  8. FD- thanks

     

     

    JG- another gormless clown,this mob make even David Cameron’s Cabinet, look like a who’s who of MENSA.

    Ft 6-0

     

     

     

     

    Big Jimmy 6. Bookie Nil.

     

     

    ……………………

     

     

    Cheers GG, SCANIEL and all the other Bhoys who cheered on my 6-0 bet etc.

     

    I watched the game at home, and although the Icelanders werent up to much, it was a professional performance from Celtic.

     

    However, may I take this opportchancery to Gloat and Boast and Brag about my Fitba bets last night ?

     

    Yes, I took the Celts to win 6-0 and 7-0 in Single bets…..however….

     

    I also put on a “Lucky 15” Correct score bet with my Bookie ( Bet365).

     

    Celtic to win…6-0.

     

    Red Star to win..5-0.

     

    Quarabag to win …4-0.

     

    All three correct score came up on my Bookie line, but sadly Legia Warsaw let me down for a MASSIVE Payout, by only winning…1-0 at home to the UDA Mob “linfield”.

     

    I had Legia to gub them 4-0…but nevertheless….I won over £200…which I am quite pleased about.

     

     

    Not bad going for a “MUG”….Playing a Mugs game !

     

    I also had Sevilla to beat M.Utd…2-1 on Monday at 10/1.

     

    I also had The Rocket O Sullivan to win the World Snooker Final…18-8 ( Correct Score) at the weekend at 16/1.

     

    So Ive had a few good recent days against the Bookie….Who’s the Mug now Mr Bookie….LOL ?

     

    I am now moving on to York Races Today…and my bets are already on…Im playing with a little of the Bookies money now.

     

    I wish I could be a MUG Every feckin Day !

    Anyone wishing to congratulate Bada or big Jimmy can do so by contacting their newly acquired butlers.

     

    …………….

     

    I have stupidly given the Butler and the maid the same Day Aff ..again…I think there is a bit of Romance in the air with those two, as they always ask for the same Day Aff !

     

    HH

  11. I have missed the post/info about BADA BINGs win on the Lottery…can someone please advise ?

     

     

    Well done BADA BHOY !

     

    HH.

     

     

    DAVID66…

     

    Why dont you come down to my local on Friday and help me spend some of my winnings on Beers ?

     

    HH

  12. Big Jimmy: Well done on your bets. I’m sure it makes watching matches more thrilling.

     

     

    An Tearmann: Breithlá sona duit.

  13. Pleased for you, Bada. I didn`t say anything last night as someone said there was a Windfall scam in operation.

     

     

    Big Jimmy

     

     

    After we got five, I was more interested in your bet coming up !

  14. HOT SMOKED…

     

    Cheers mate…I hope that is correct cos Ive been reading about a possible “Scam” ?

     

    Well done BADA BHOY…If you won the £3,000.

     

    Magis !

     

    HH

  15. Good morning everyone, thanks again for the birthday wishes. A great day rounded off with a great result.

     

    Today we celebrate An Tearmann’s birthday. A big hoopy birthday my friend, have a hooptastic day.

     

    Keep the Faith!

     

    Hail Hail!

  16. In ither news……………..

     

     

    ( I know, I know…..)

     

     

    Shorties editorial team chose to style our dominant display in the Champions League as giving Neil –

     

    “breathing space”……………………as if us / him were struggling to breath in some way shape or form – in trouble or under some sort of duress perhaps.

     

     

    Neil may have uttered the words ” breathing space” but even a cursory glance at the reported phrasing shows a different meaning , intention and context……

     

     

    If I didn’t know about the game and how it unfolded I might be tempted to think that the Club barely managed to survive………………

     

     

    This obviously being the preferred narrative to cloak our achievements in – doubtless one which makes our victory more palatable to the laptop huns in the office and the mouth-breathers in the general publik who have someone read it aloud to thum.

     

     

    Shameful.

  17. ….oh, and there’s still

     

     

    …………………no conclusion to the Bolingoli matter

     

     

    and a headache with what to do with 4 strikers in the team.

     

     

    Aye!

     

     

    it’s aw abooooot choices I suppose.

     

     

    HHH.

    No doubt the crayon scribblers will tell us that the strikers who are not getting 90 minutes every game will be begging to get out of their ‘Celtic hell!’

  19. Enjoyed last night.

     

     

    Big beautiful Ollie – I told ye. Pure class.

     

     

    Early season but Christie off the boil to me. Middle to front take shape as follows:

     

     

    Ajeti (Looks rusty. Needs games) Eddie

     

     

    Moi

     

     

    Callum Ntcham

  20. GlenD……….

     

     

     

    Yep – tabloid quality muck- merchants.

     

     

    Particularly bad was that bam, English who could not wait to drag Sparky into a doom-laden controversy.

     

     

    Operation- weaken Celtic stuff.

     

     

    This year more than any we’ll need a full complement of Tims as our bhoys will be fouled into injury and booked into suspensions – so a nice cushion of capable staff is required especially in the latter half of this momentous season.

     

     

    HH

  21. Reading back, well done to Bada on winning the windfall….remember your EK pals big fella. Dont go drinking with VP or G64 with that money, you’ll be skint by the end of it.

  22. Thought Christie worked hard but his touch was off, I wouldn’t slag off any of our players from last night but we all know the Ice Men were Accies in disguise.

     

    Sometimes you can struggle to break down these teams but the early goal settled us and it could have been 8 or 9.

     

    Thought we had 2 decent shouts for penalties.

  23. Go tell the Spartim on

    Bankiebhoy

     

     

    I wonder if the Bastion Of Bigotry Corporation will do a similar piece on SEVCO having 4 strikers 🤔

  24. SonsofErin,

     

     

    It’ll be hanging off a rail next to Dunlop, Billabong and Diadora within the year…..

     

     

    Stupide, stupid Huns…..
