    Aaw Naw

    James Forrest, is for me, a chicken heart.

     

     

     

    ———————–

     

     

     

    You have clearly never encountered an angry chicken.

    I have cut the heids aff a few!!

  3. Onwards to Astana.Broony,O”Connell,,men of the match for us.JF missed a penalty,fantastic save,so what?Great,gritty performance against the EPL champions.Yes,EPL champions !!!!!!!.

     

    If Izzy had ever been able to pick a man out with a cross,he would have been World class.On that subject,our set pieces are getting worse,as are our crosses into the box.Work needed.

     

    Very hopeful for Wednesday.

    ” gatherings of gentlemen with bare chests”

     

     

    I am afraid I am more a ” gathering of ladies with bare chests” type of guy

  5. i'vehadtochangemyname on

    It’s very early of course but the team feels like it has a shape and they know each other’s jobs

    What is the stars.

     

    Vic Davidson second time around didnt have get some stick.

     

    Also I remember Kenny Dalglish getting stick, at one game he was called a womble, better than a bottler I think.

     

    When you were posting on Thursday. I asked if you had watched Obriens 3 winners. I thought they were all impressive . Churchill won only a neck but looks a proper racehorse to be but still green. The other two were visually more impressive but Churchill for me. Do you have an opinion on them?

  7. THE_HUDDLE on 23RD JULY 2016 8:47 PM

     

    No one is giving JF shit for the pen miss.

     

     

     

    He’s getting it in the neck because he been the same type of player for years now, with no sign of improving after playing under 3 managers.

     

     

     

    Celtic have offered him a new contract which he’s rejected, do we really offer him more money?

     

     

    Yes Sir! That is exactly the point. Wants more money and brings us NOTHING. The pen miss is very far from being my point regarding JF’s “performances”. Punt him.

    WHAT IS THE STARS on 23RD JULY 2016 9:20 PM

     

     

    Who was your favourite all time Celtic Scapegoat?

     

     

    —————————————-

     

     

    Tommy Callaghan. Stood in the Jungle every home game during the Tommy Callaghan years and I’ve never heard such scorn. The abuse TC got was unbelievable.

     

    TC was the Efe of the mid-70s. And he was a good player. Like Efe is.

    GERRYBHOY on 23RD JULY 2016 9:28 PM

     

     

    Well, that would make them angry right enough, so fair play!

  10. What is the Stars on

    Jimmynotpaul

     

     

    Yes,sorry I saw your post about O’Briens

     

    I liked Douglas McArthur,thought he won very well

  11. Tricoloured Ribbon on

    Reading absolutely nothing into today’s game or any other friendlies.

     

    Nothing but bounce games.

     

    Players should only be judged on competitive games.

  12. Jimmynotpaul on

    Gerryfaethebrig.

     

    Tell Miss GFTB that we will all look forward to her posts and that Sipsini is correct. :-))))

  13. Cosy Corner Bhoy on

    Not read back much. Firstly , congratulations to TTT . Secondly, thanks to TET for his offer of a bracelet for the Leicester barmaid,I will take that up and BMCUWP can give you my address in Spain,finally,due to aggro at Forge btwn fans and police including mounted I forgot to get her a programme…. So on the cadge lhads.. Thanks in advance.

  14. What is the Stars on

    TCR

     

     

    Exactly,

     

    They are just warm up/fitness/math practise games

     

     

    Enjoyed todays game though,

     

    I thought there was a bit of an edge because of the England/Scotland thing and also because EFE and Jamesie are fighting it out for Club Scapegoat

    Well, that would make them angry right enough, so fair play!

     

     

    Aye but not for long! Used to help out my father in law in that regard. They were his chicks, so he couldn’t bring himself to do it. A fine son in law I am ;))

  16. Davie Provan took helluva stick on a regular basis. He was a Hun mind, probably deserved on that basis alone although I couldnt understand it at the time.

    Would love to meet you for an ale n blether this season.

     

    Hail Hail

  18. Cosy Corner Bhoy on

    Forgot to mention the game! Lots more pluses than minuses and I enjoyed it ,pity Izzy can’t cross .. mebbe if he was a Tim Tim instead of a Pentecostal Tim he would be better:)

  19. Jimmynotpaul on

    What is the stars.

     

    Thanks I always value your opinion.

     

    Douglas McArthur can only improve. Obrien said he would like to get another 2 races into him this season but is worried about rushing him.

     

    They let him roll from the front as the horse still doesn’t know what to do on a racecourse, he said his work is terrific at home.

     

    I hope they stay fit, two totally different types of horses yet both exciting prospects. Who knows maybe a new Dancing Brave. :-))) Just thought I would put that in as its 30 years since it won the King George.

    No one is giving JF shit for the pen miss.

     

    —————————————

     

    IIt was a cowardly penalty which sums him up unfortunately. Such a shame cause he’s blessed with pace and ability….but no baws.

  21. Scapegoats?On this blog at the moment,there is a load of them.Izzy,Efe,Johansen,Commons,Forrest,Ciftci,GMS,Boyatta

     

    Pending.

     

    Dembele,Janko,Rogic,Gordon,Simunovic,and Broony,first bad game he has.

     

    Wait and see.

  22. If that was Efe’s debut today we’d all be excited at seeing a tremendous talent joining the club.

     

    He didn’t put a foot wrong, showed terrific composure, pace & ability. Why not treat the guy as a new signing & get behind the big man? Who knows with a bit of support at his back, he may just rediscover the consistency of his first season with us?

     

     

    Good guy & a fine talent. H.H. Efe!

  23. THE EXILED TIM on 23RD JULY 2016 9:44 PM

     

    On the strength of that second half performance today Efe.s going nowhere. Toure will sort his mistakes out.

  24. Modern day Pentecostals have always been rubbish crossers.

     

    And Latter Day Saints.

  25. What is the Stars on

    Turkeybhoy

     

     

    Yes thats an impressive list of scapegoats ( or potential scapegoats)

     

     

    How about a team full of scapegoats

     

    Rab Douglas

     

    Paul Telfer

     

    Gary Caldwell

     

    Rafael Scheidt

     

    Olivier Tebilly

     

    Regi Blinker

     

    etc etc etc

  26. Watching the movie Whiskey Tango Foxtrot – quite good, quite funny and has Martin Freeman in it wearing a Celtic scarf :O)

  27. Saint Stivs says SACK THE BOARD on

    James.

     

     

    Go look at his career stats.

     

     

    184 matches. 30goals. 27 assists.

     

     

    His best returns 9 goals in 2011/12.

     

     

    Last two seasons are pathetic for a forward player.

     

     

    2 goals, 2 assists. Last year.

     

     

    I will be kind. Maybe the injuries stop progression.

     

     

    Right now his wee brother is getting better reviews.

     

     

    Cash in, let him go.

     

     

    I can think of 5 good games he had as mom.

     

     

    Patrick has scored more and set up more in half a season than James has in 3

  28. What is the Stars on

    Churchill was impressive no doubt about that

     

     

    But Douglas McArthur beat (easily) a horse called World War ( trained by Ger Lyons and wealthy owners paid over a million for)

     

    Interesting to see World War,Douglas McArthur and Churchill race against each other

  29. The Telfantor and Rab didn’t really do anything wrong.

     

     

    Make a howler then you can join the escape goats but some players were just disliked because of their faces didn’t fit, our support is all inclusive (or not)

  30. What is the Stars on

    The Huddle

     

     

    Thats the point

     

     

    You dont really have to do anything wrong ( on a regular basis) to become a scapegoat…..

     

    Lets face it,some guys are just born to be scapegoats

  31. Foxy

     

    Efe has made one mistake under our new coaching staff, it did cost us a goal but at the end of the day it wasn’t that important.

     

    That one mistake is way less than quite a few others have made, but they are getting away with it cos Efe is taking all the flak.

     

    Funny thing is, I could well see BR going with Efe & Kolo as our CB’s :-)

     

    Erik & Skoosh in front of them with the rest fighting for a start.

  32. When I was a kid their was a Steamie in Gibson St just beside the Barrowland at right angles to the Gallowgate. It joined Stevenson St and both were great for roller skating on midweek evenings, but not weekend ones. Hit a whelk shell at a roller rate of knots and it was skint elbows.

     

     

    Anyhoo back at the Steamie I remember the wifies with their scarves tied above the heads all chatting away to each other.

     

     

    On some occasions, if you stood at the door looking in and listened carefully, just discernible amongst the clanking of lids and the hiss of steam, you could make out the words. “See that James Forrest…..”

  33. To sum up my contributions today (sadly) James Forrest should be nowhere near a Celtic jersey. Simples….for me.

    Nah Efe is one because he continues to make howlers no matter how much we wish it didn’t happen, I can’t remember a Telfer mistake. There is a difference
