  1. Absolutely brilliant from Celtic tonight. Brendan has them motivated again.

     

     

    As for Gerrard. Oh dear.

  2. That was a truly brilliant performance.

     

     

    Sure we had 12 on the field cos there were two Ryan Christies on the pitch……the Gallus Fenian Bhoy was everywhere.

     

     

    A truly heroic performance by our Bhoys

  3. Pogmathon- definitely. Why bother with just trying to have better players, better tactics and all that stuff when you can just distract the world with statements?

     

     

    I guess it’ll make some thinly veiled reference to how all them ones in Sion are a bit close to a certain institution in Rome

  4. I must have realised it was gonna b a nite to remember…hooped top outa the washing machine to wear to work ramorra…jist to rub it in ;-))

  5. Alasdair MacLean on

    One of my thoughts after digesting this result….

     

     

    Magic tonic for MurdochAuld&Hay.

     

     

    If you’re looking in here son, hope that puts a spring in your step after your hard week.

  6. Its been a while since I’ve watched a rip snorting game like that. Absolutely jam packed with super skilful players on both sides with great honest commitment on both sides.

     

     

    Non of your namby pamby diving, nor reckless hammer throwing style tackling (ok one bad tackle on KT which took yellow to the limit).

     

     

    We had chances to be well ahead, then they had chances to dampen our joy.

     

     

    Loved it. And even more so when Forrest, McGregor, Christie and Tierney are all motm contenders.

  7. Whatever happens in remaining games Que Sera Sera.

     

    Tonight we got our pride back in Europe, not bad for a divided dressing room & a Club riven with problems.

     

    So many outstanding displays, just hard to try and analyse it at the moment.

     

    Suffice to say I’m thrilled to bits.

     

    Delighted for DD & his bet.

     

    Like old times, a real Celtic European night.

  8. Make that 4 wins in Europe against German opposition.

     

     

    What a rollercoaster that was.

     

     

    Dominating the first half and cursing our failure to make it two or more.

     

     

    To berating the team for gifting a sloppy equaliser and feeling that was that.

     

     

    To a high of an easy breakaway two minutes later.

     

     

    Cursing missed easy chances by Sinky and Lustig to being grateful for the bar as Leipzig had 2 great chances to equalise.

     

     

    Lots of good performances tonight but Callum and Kieran were in the very, very, very good category.

     

     

     

    One final question- when did Spanish refs become so liberal in their attitude to letting fouls go?

  9. It is good to see a return to competitive European football at Celtic Park even if it strains the nerves.

     

     

    Some top notch performances, but Christie, McGregor and Forrest were top, top notchers.

     

     

    Re two Red Bull clubs playing each other: you could almost have written the script and I hope we see fair play when they play each other and Salzburg us at CP.

    That Sipsini inspired bet has paid for my Euro tickets. Magic.

     

    Hope you and family are well.

     

    Mon the Dunkys ?

  11. Delight can’t describe it. Probably one of our most outstanding results in recent time.

     

     

    @ Leipzig- Money can’t buy you happiness, but you can play and get beat at Celtic Park, which is a close second.

  12. Hunny G said not going to criticise the guys,30 seconds later 12-13 year olds could have defended better…?

  13. Read about the Huns complaining about collum and it’s sinister on so many levels.

     

     

    Firstly it’s blatant that they want to single out the only catholic 1st class referee in Scotland (did you all know that ). It’s also blatant that they get to do this without any criticism. If Celtic do this they get attacked. But worse than that the Hun do this and win. We do not even try. That’s how pathetic our board are.

  14. How can it be be in any way acceptable for two teams to be playing in the same group of a major tournament that have primary funding from the same organisation?

     

     

    We find ourselves in the position where our progress may hinge upon the result between two of our opponents, where a draw is beneficial to the sponsor’s brand.

  15. RB Leipzig will win in Austria, it’s guaranteed, it will be free money, Salzburg have qualified so you can bet with total impunity that they will let Leipzig win, and uefa tell us it’s all above board and no fixed,.

  16. Radio Scotland Good Morning Scotland sports script currently being drafted, ‘Celtic sneak two goals while free flowing rangers bag a hat trick inside a half’

  17. Ryan Christie proving my hypothesis correct- that the son of a great player ain’t gonna be much more than average, but the son of a good, honest pro can exceed his father’s career by some distance. Take a bow, Charlie Christie – you taught your Bhoy well. You must be bursting with pride tonight.

  18. Great result. Players ran themselves into the ground. It’s late here but my boys will be all smiles tomorrow when I wake them up and tell them the result.

  19. A Ceiler Gonof Rust on

    Will Red Bull play “tactical” with their teams in the next round?

     

     

    This situation should never have been allowed to occur.

     

     

     

    Terrible terrible shame the Columbian being ruled offside for his perfectly legal goal that would have put the huns 4-2 up.

     

     

    I’m bleeding tears here for the huns…………………………..:_)

    Celtic win in Europa league give it a hour and you go for the board some fans (not all) just want to maybe give the bhoys on the park credit for tonight … but again some fans/supporters will never be happy with the team just winning

  21. Apologies to the other patrons for my shrieking and shouting in Ska Brewing in Durango, Colorado. The nerves were frayed to breaking point. Noo tae get foo, it’s happy hour.

  22. Canamalar it looks like OCD obsession on

    TET,

     

    we just need to beat Salzburg and get more goals against Rosenburg, as I said a few weeks ago, belief is all we need to do it

  23. The game is finally up for the Beeb as the anti Celtic bias goes hysterically ridiculous.

     

     

    Targeting The Lions for mass cruelty to animals is surely the final nail in the Broadcaster’s coffin.

  24. Listening to Rodgers press conference. Sutherland guy from the bbc starts off by saying Leipzig have a better head to head and we have to win our two games. BR gets fkd into him saying typical Scottish press start with a negative. Good to hear him getting into they ratbags

  25. Well, that was absolute garbage!

     

     

    Fortunately, I’m only referring to my Algarvian Kodi stream which chucked it on the 47th minute. I gave up after multiple attempts to reconnect.

     

     

    Thanks to all on here for the updates.

     

     

    It wasn’t all bad news. I saw all 4 Spartak goals!

  26. The Exiled Tim, this is why I lost all interest in F1, absolutely blatant gaming of results between teams drivers.

     

     

    Whist we all know how bent Fifa and Uefa can/have been, the lack of outcry from member nations on this issue is sorely disappointing.

    I remember a young Charlie Christie not “making” it as he was homesick ? Am sure he is a very proud dad tonight, watching Ryan at Aberdeen I thought he might be like GMS a better player without the Celtic responsibilities (all the fans) Ryan has grabbed this chance in last few games and thought he was great tonight long may it continue for Ryan

  28. That confirmed that Brendan’s Celtic are back.

     

     

    He’s worked his magic on players again.

     

     

    What he’s done with macgregor is nothing short of genius.

    We could build a Europa winning team round the 2 Big B’s. Filip is awesome player. We are a different team with him.
