  1. headlines from (feck the ) bbc sports

     

     

    “Rodgers hails ‘charismatic and courageous’ Celtic after statement win”

     

     

    “Outstanding Celtic roar back to beat Leipzig in Champions League”

     

     

    “‘Definitely the best’ – Rodgers ranks Celtic Euro win”

  2. Our quick 1-2s/triangles was Barcaesque at times and once when we were attacking , RB had 9 men in a line across the pitch in front of their goalmouth!!!.I kid you not!

  3. follow follow

     

     

    ” didnt watch them, but 3-1 vs the 2nd place team in Germany is nothing to laugh at.

     

    Their group touted the easiest, but last years CL finalists, Europa winners, a very good Atalanta team and the worst pot 4 away draw possible in Villa.

     

     

    We can say all we want ,they would’ve been hammered by these teams in the past, but Rogers learned from Dortmund and our manager says that a loss to Aberdeen was our best performance of the year, and goes same again vs a Motherwell team crippled by injuries and staggers over the line.

     

     

    I have stuck up for Clement, but their manager and recruitment is miles ahead, and all the “lucky draw” talk in the world doesnt change a feckin thing”

     

     

    ahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

  4. Predicted 3-1 earlier today , although I thought we’d be hanging on more towards the end.

     

     

    Brendan’s a crafty lhad Tactics bob on

     

     

    HH

  5. Kuhn obviously fantastic, Calmac what can you say, Hatate as good as he’s been, but thought big Trusty was imperious.. We have got ourselves an absolutely outstanding defender. This guy, if/when he goes, will go for MULLIONS! What a performance all across the back line. Fannytastic.

     

     

    To me that was the best Euro performance I’ve seen this millennium (teehee). I loved the Barca win, but this was something we earned, we bossed, we won!!

     

     

    Ave Ave

  6. EmeraldBee \o/ A Double Niner!!

     

     

    Trusty had a great game, CCV was immense and scales when he came on belied the nervous scared player that the opposition would target when he had the ball at his feet

     

     

    All 3 were tremendous

  7. Thought the Atalanta performance and result was as good as we would get…WRONG!!!!tonight we were magnificent to a man Reo was imperious CalMac simply brilliant and Kuhn on fire, I cried,Thank you Brendan and all the staff for bringing back the Thunder.

     

    Hail! Hail!

  8. Back to Basics - Glass Half Full on

    Absolutely brilliant night.

     

     

    A privilege to be at Celtic Park.

     

     

    Just finished watching full match rerun.

     

     

    Best European performance since I don’t know when.

     

     

    Similar start to European games of recent years.

     

     

    We started well but the other team figured us out after 15-20 minutes.

     

     

    We then struggled for a spell.

     

     

    Difference tonight. We did not fold.

     

     

    IMHO – major plaudits go to Trusty, Kuhn, Schmeichel and Hatate in that order.

     

     

    But the prize has to go to Callum McGregor.

     

     

    Captain’s role of the highest quality.

     

     

    His best performance in a Celtic jersey.

     

     

    Buzzin’

  9. on my way to celtic park i decided to book that NEW EDMISTONE HOUSE venue, glasgows pre emunite location for a pre match meal.

     

     

    apparantely

     

     

    it is closed on champions league nights.

  10. still astounded of forehead at not the result but the performance

     

     

    We did not look out of place, we very much dominated tonight

     

     

    60% possession

     

     

    17 shots to 10

     

     

    5 shots on target to 3

     

     

    8 shots off target to 4

     

     

    4 blocked shots to 3

     

     

    25 touches in the box to 15

     

     

    All the above stats in our favour

     

     

    Not many times we do that to the 2nd best time in germany

  11. going to bed but,

     

     

    i am missing oriley and jota terribly.

     

     

    who ever hired engles and kuan, dearie me

     

     

    recruitment

  12. 3 weeks ago 2000 empty seats

     

     

    today 3000 empty seats

     

     

    Leipzig fans to blame this week…..

     

     

    As is the ticketing system

     

     

    And the tories that operate it and do the 2-3000 ordinary fans out of a seat

  13. Good Morning Fholks – Grand Day To Be A Tim

     

     

    Excellent performance yesterday, it was complete, technique, pace, physicality, tactics, personality and sublime fitness levels that seen us push on and dominate the last ten minutes, where European Clubs can could in the past back at us.

     

     

    So our last two UCL campaigns are now

     

     

    Pld 7 W 3 D 2 L 2 – The last three home matches won as we try to reestablish fortress Celtic Park

     

     

    If we manage to compete at mid level table in this new UCL that is going to be a huge filip for our Club.

     

     

    Once again a huge struggle to leave players out for JoBo’s POTY, especially when our leaders such as Schmeichel, CCV do an awesome job of heavy lifting.

     

     

    Yet the three were real standouts and for quite different reasons, Calmac, a real top drawer midfield performance on top of a true Captain’s performance

     

     

    Hatate showed the creativity that we all know he has, sometimes you can see, that relatively speaking, he came to football late, yet it doesn’t take away his awesome natural ability, a real baller as RBL found to their cost

     

     

    Of course the MOTM was Kuhn, really bringing all aspects of his game together to look a top teir footballer – and a cap doff to our previous recruitment staff, we mined a gem there.

     

     

    So winging it’s way to SENCELPOTY@GMAIL.COM

     

     

    1. Kuhn

     

     

    2. Calmac

     

     

    3. Hatate

     

     

    When you look at that performance you can see everyone involved in the Club since COVID can really take some personal pride in getting Celtic to the level a Club like ours deserves.

     

     

    Still the job is not done and we know complacency will not be allowed to take hold – the end of January 2025 is where we look for the seasons milestones according to Brendan and so far so good.

     

     

    Hail Hail

  14. Tom McLaughlin on

    Fantastic result and performance last night. Very difficult to pick a man of the match but I’m going for Callum. He was world class and totally bossed the middle of the park.

     

     

    This is the best Celtic team since 2003.

  15. Oops – last two campaigns should read…

     

     

    Pld 10 W 3 D 2 L 5

     

     

    The improvement as we progressed has been tangible in all aspects of the team.

     

     

    Pld 4 W 2 D 1 L 1 – Seven points, at least three in advance of where a good campaign could take us.

     

     

    Hail Hail

  16. I posted last night after the game that NICOLAS KUHN was my Man of the Match.

     

     

    On reflection this morning….I am going for CAPTAIN CALLUM MCGREGOR instead.

     

    So many great performances last night and so difficult to pick Three for JOBO’s POTY.

     

     

    Our Skipper was just SUPERB !

     

     

    Celtic Park was made for nights like last night.

     

     

    HH

  17. What a game and result! Still buzzing and trying not to let the American election result dampen my mood this morning.

     

     

    Mon the hoops!

     

     

    Never been so proud of the team.

     

     

    😃👍🏆🇮🇪⚽️🍀

    Love that first thought when you wake up after a great win the night before………WUNDERBAR.

  19. As others have said it’s the manner of the win that excites the most. To dominate one of the elite teams shows how much we’ve improved, not just the players we signed but also those like AJ and GT who look much fitter and stronger.

  20. I really hope BR sees his future 5 years and beyond with Celtic and grow and develop the football club into what it can be, he will have suitors he will be offered huge salaries but I think the bond between him the club and fans has never been stronger, so I really hope it happens. We are getting better yesterday a couple of Aberdeen fans said we destroyed them at Hampden and they were going to watch last night’s game to see if we could replicate that, we did and a huge congratulations to the coaches fitness and conditioning people the Manager players and fans that made this happen and the plc board who backed the Manager, Celtic pulling in the same direction is an awesome sight.

  21. DESSYBHOY @ 8:33 AM,

     

     

    Great post, totally agree…

     

     

    The fact is, if you go back pre Ange the players we still have are Calmac, James Forrest, Tony Ralston, Welsh, Greg Taylor…

     

     

    If we can have a real development program and bring players through it is going to help with our consistency.

     

     

    You can see the quality of young players like Kuhn, Valle, Engels etc who came through good academies.

     

     

    Hail Hail
