  1. A decent performance and a fine result. Well done, my team.

    I think it is a wee touch of sarcasm directed towards those who seem to find it difficult to see anything good in Celtic performances.

  2. Good result and performance. I think it confirms what we all knew- our manager f****d up midweek and for 45 mins today but at least go there in the end.

     

     

    Why we dropped 3-5-2 to start this season when it worked so well last year is beyond me. Hopefully it is here to stay.

    Our two dud CBs create one and score one. They are both very good. It’s organisation that has been our achilles heel, not underlying quality.

     

     

     

     

    Spot on sir. We have a bunch of talented boys. Play the systems that get the best out of them.

  4. Win was needed – we got it. No comment whatsoever on initial team selection, or, overall performance. Motherwell dire!

  5. 2nd half was a clear illustration of the madness that was the ‘no-striker’ team selection.

     

     

    Impressed by Ajeti’s touch – looks as if he’s a bit to do in terms of fitness, but looks to have a sharp mind. Upset for Polish Paddy, but he made the big difference in terms of team shape – not just having a striker on the park, but also allowing the midfielders to play their natural game.

  6. What a difference a proper striker makes, second half the game was stretched and they had no answer, I honestly don’t know why we didn’t start that way, not a complaint, just an observation that some who should be seeing don’t seem to be.

     

    Three points towards the ten, happy Tim

  7. Only saw the 2nd half…so will only comment on that…Yaaaassasss ;-))

     

     

    Back to 3-5-2 in the SPHell has to b the norm….dominated, created and scored 2 great goals. Frimpers, Christie and Forrest ( coming in from the left) are my top 3

    Don’t let the bully boys silence you fella. Speak your mind. Result was everything but some questions remain.

     

     

    And yep, Motherwell were awful.

  9. I try my best to reply to any poster that has the decency to reply to me .. but not today am going to just enjoy Celtic winning … not getting dragged into “we should have played strikers on Wednesday” like today Wednesday is history .., probably had far more chances on Wednesday but guess what it’s … football … a sport … away and take your entitlement shoite to France

     

     

    God bless Neil Francis Lennon

     

     

    Criticise his tactics but the hunlike attitude to our manager pisses me off

     

     

    Both Jamesy F & big Chris scored today, I won heehaw but bet both for 2+ goals & hattricks … this Celtic supporting glass will always … look on the bright side of life

     

     

    Don’t let the Big Wavys of the internet bring you down … Celtic is beautiful

     

     

    Hail Hail

  10. Grateful for the 3 points but hardly a 10 in a row performance, improved after the subs came on. Still a lot of work to be done. H H Hebcelt

  11. Klimala’s movement was a major problem for Motherwell

     

    He also seems to have pace and those are the two

     

    things defenders hate.

     

    Easy to defend against statues keep giving the bhoy

     

    a chance.

  12. Good result.

     

    Even some good performances.

     

    But too much stodge.

     

    We had no system.

     

     

    Until JF(2) came on and forced one on us.

     

    Compare and contrast !?!

     

     

    JF(1) played in the left back’s pocket for 60 minutes.

     

    JF(2) came on and ran him ragged to the point his mother complained to his manager he was not getting enough support.

     

     

    M/well are well set up but have little real talent / class.

     

    We are the exact opposite.

     

     

    The MF needs real work.

     

    NL made a horlicks of the subs.

     

     

    However the 3rd goal raised a cheer that worried next door’s cat.

    Sadsack…..I live rent-free in your head it seems. :)

  14. Second halfmuch better. Klimala played well, and his runs are intelligent creating space for others as well as good hold up play. Have thought for yonks that Forrest could play on the left more often.

    Well done Neil ?

     

     

    How C & O put up with you I will never know ;-)

     

     

    (Just a wee joke :-)

  16. Please Neil, 3-5-2 every week.

     

     

    Edouard, Ajeti, Griffiths and Klimala will thrive. Find a place for Frimpong wide right.

  17. Thanks for all your valuable contributions today comrades. The support for the team , the players, the manager, world class, With support like that we will march on to ten. Cheers,

    Do we need to get pumped today to get that arrogant wee twat out the door?

     

     

     

    DEXTER P. BAMPOT on 30TH AUGUST 2020 2:06 PM

     

    So, he’s done it again. He’s trying to show everyone else is wrong and he’s right….

     

     

    PHILBHOY on 30TH AUGUST 2020 2:08 PM

     

    Lennon out!

     

     

    PHILBHOY on 30TH AUGUST 2020 2:09 PM

     

    He’s playing games!

     

    This isn’t Tennents bar, it’s Celtic Football Club going for the 10.

     

    (Not 10 pints)

     

     

    DEXTER P. BAMPOT on 30TH AUGUST 2020 2:10 PM

     

    Biggest season since 97/98 and he’s playing roulette

    @ SAINT STIVS on 30TH AUGUST 2020 2:11 PM

     

    “I am confident we will score today.”

     

    Don’t set the bar too high there.

    Malcontent bingo started earlier today

     

     

    Whatever happens today, are you happy with the tactics being employed by Lennon?

     

     

    ONENIGHTINLISBON on 30TH AUGUST 2020 2:14 PM

     

    I said earlier that blind loyalty puts the 10 at risk. so does arrogance,

    So let’s risk the points to make a point…..

    SAINT STIVS on 30TH AUGUST 2020 2:18 PM

     

    Lennon is his surname, no disrespect shown. He’s not a God.

     

     

     

     

     

    ONENIGHTINLISBON on 30TH AUGUST 2020 2:20 PM

     

    Oh to be in the happy clapper clique….

     

     

    Pages:1

  18. Delighted with the points and clean sheet however…….we are not a side that is coached. In Frimpong we have a guys that will get to the bye line regularly due to his speed- a good forwards coach Would have the strikers and a attacking mids knowing what to do and runs to make when he goes for the line -he shouldn’t even have to look up knowing they will be in place. The amount of times he get to the line and hits no one??????

  19. still need a CB an LB

     

     

    Though Klimala led the line well when he came on and was unlucky not to get on score sheet – the ammo came from christie in his natural position and frimpong getting to the line. Ajeti first touch is fantastic and he will sharpen up when he gets training and game time.

     

     

    overall delighted with the response and happy Lennon rectified mistake at half time rather than wait till 70mins

     

     

    now Peter – get the players Lennon has asked for months and now needs!

  20. All we wanted was a response.

     

    What we got was a response.

     

    It’s not going to be a season for the faint hearted.

     

    Well done Bhoys

     

    Well done Lenny

  21. Incidentally, the stats for this game when compared with Wednesday`s show that we had more possession, more shots and more shots on target….on Wednesday.

     

    Funny ol` game.Saint.

  22. btw bhoys – it was KLIMALAS run that created space for Julien goal – watch the big center follow klimala and dragging him out of position

  23. PK — unlucky with his chance / GK was pretty focused and made a good save.

     

    AA — took his goal well but the GK was left exposed and made a percentage dive.

     

     

    The trials and tribulations of a striker.

     

     

    We should have used the last 30 minutes to feed the ball to the two strikers to get them up to speed.

     

    JF hogging the ball and shooting at every opportunity was a bit selfish.

     

    Definitely not playing for the team in the second half.

     

     

    Superb strike though for the goal — he has it but he doesn’t use it (enough)

  24. Jesus Lhads – go easy…………………

     

     

    There are real sleekits ooot there that need the watchin’…….

     

    ……..rascals!

  25. Sorry Polish Paddy didn’t slot the golden opportunity that his play deserved.

     

     

    Some excellent runs. Some drew defenders. Some were just too quick and subtle for our team that aren’t used to seeking a clinical early pass.

     

     

    I am interested in a debate as to what may have been with strikers on Wednesday. Because it’s an error that cost us £Ms in the space of 90mins, and if repeated, will threaten the 10.

     

     

    Mistakes are there to be learned from.

     

     

    HH jg

  26. That should have read not coached…….

     

     

    And another thing – is Turnbull now not match fit so can’t be played? He must be sitting wondering how can I not get a game – ON and SB on a sticky wicket I reckon
