I know it does not mean much. But to me we win and rotten mob draw I feel a bit better in my head at least .
Better than I did this time last week anyway !
Had a wee rare (this season anyway) LOL moment. I thought they had won. Just saw the result. I stopped watching when they had scored.
The collapse is on!
(Before I get pelters, I am joking of course. Or am I?)
McGregpr of the Sevco getting MOTM is disrespectful to the Accies players. Thought they were really good.
Robertressell
Until you posted there I had assumed they won 😃
The fightback is on – and I’m not kidding
Bob – i feel the same. Narrowing the gap and winning the Scottish cup is the aim now.
I saw one of the better analytics guys on twitter detailing the recent decline in sevcos performance. Since December they have been in points dropping territory. They have been incredibly lucky. Just as we have been incredibly sh 1 t 3
Gene – one way or another in a sense i believe it is.
21 points, 2 games in hand. Down to 15..win the 2 derbies…down to 9 .. the arse falls out the sevco band wagon and we nick it on the last day….because they will loose 4 more games somewhere and we will win every game.
Sad part is the last part is the one hats most hard to believe

He played 90 mins on Wed and was Motm
True , but 90 mins Wed then Sat is maybe a bit too much for him now . Also , Killie didn’t press in the last 20 mins the way M’well did . He had put so much into yesterday’s game by then that he wasn’t able to get back and plug that gap at their goal .
Don’t get me wrong I thought he was terrific up until then , but we needed Soro on at that point IMO.

A real piece of Celtic history here from 1973 after Bobby Murdoch had scored Celtic;s 6000th league goal. Here he meets Adam McLean who scored the 2000th goal, Jimmy McGrory (3000th) and Jimmy Delaney (4000th). Imagine the stories these guys could have told ?

Brilliant! I must admit that in my minds eye Bobby was stocky – he looks tall in that photo.
The season would be cut short and league awarded on average points per match in the unlikely event of the huns collapsing and it starting to look like we could have a chance of nicking the league .
The most frustrating scenario would be if we lost it within the four points dropped post-Dubai.
Im not advocating SB for the sake of his undoubted football abilities I’m suggesting we need him on the pat because he a course and distance winner and will go down as a legendary captain.
Soro and Turnbull would benefit from that I am sure
A Pat Stanton type role, while we still have him.
We shouldn’t be featuring a 35 year old with little positional discipline in season 20/21 as a starter.
The fact we are still having this conversation speaks volumes for the sheer mediocrity, lack of success planning and half-arsed belief in sentimentality over coherent thinking that has gripped the club and sections of the support, many on here.
Play the best players in their best position.

The sad part is we won’t win all our games 😭
Every time we put subs on, it weakens us,3 unnecessary subs in 3 minutes and we were all over the shop.I think we have loan deals with financial penalty clauses in them,i absolutely no need to put Elyounoussi and Laxalt on, can only be money,and not for the first time this season.
What happened to jobo

look at the size of Jimmy Delaney an awe
I would love it really love it if Sevco went on a bad run and we pipped them to the title.
I know it wouldn’t be allowed to happen but hey ho.

Couldn’t understand those 2 subs either.

Sevco are getting a lot from Steve ‘Interesting’ Davis – an auld head is still good to have around the place – if not a cert to start.

Glasgow born outside left Adam McLean played junior football for Whiteinch Oaklea Juveniles in 1912, Broomhill YMCA in 1913, Anderston Benburb in 1914 and Anderston Thornbank in 1915 before he signed for Celtic in January 1917, making his Scottish League debut on the 20th of that month in a 1-1 draw at Dumbarton. He was still a teenager at this point and he was introduced slowly to the first team, with just a handful of games in his first season.
Making himself a full first team start, the stocky, strong and wonderful dribbler McLean went on to terrorise defenders with his rampaging and mazy runs. McLean was a much loved traditional tricky winger whose abundance of skill made him a great Celtic Park favourite. He was also a superb crosser of the ball and time after time McLean’s runs and crosses provided the ammunition for the great Jimmy McGrory to fire home another goal. McGrory’s achievements were part in due to the quality of those around him, with Adam McLean being a chief contributor to McGrory’s phenomenal success. McLean was not however just a supplier of goals and he was more than capable of cutting in off his wing and riffling the ball into the net.
McLean was to be a mainstay in the first team squad for much of the 1920’s and a bulwark in the side which helped to build a foundation for the club that led to some great silverware. McLean was capped four times by his country between 1925 and 1927, and played 408 games for Celtic, scoring 138 goals for The Bhoys. He won three League championships in 1919, 1922 and 1926, and three Scottish Cups in 1923, 1925 and 1927, before he was transferred to Sunderland in the summer of 1928, a reluctant move by McLean stemming from a dispute over contract terms. He also played 3 times for The Scottish League between 1923 and 1928.
He made his Football League debut against Blackburn Rovers in August 1928, scoring in a 3-1 victory and missing only 2 games as Sunderland finished 4th in his first season, however his appearances became less frequent and he returned up north to play for Aberdeen in 1930 where he ended up playing a major part in putting an end to the Aberdeen ‘match-fixing’ scandal of 1931 when he refused to take part and blew the whistle on the racket. He scored 26 goals in 85 appearances for The Dons in a 3 season spell at Pittodrie and finished his playing career at Partick Thistle, who he joined in 1933.
When Eddie goes at the end of the season , and he will, we need to be looking for a big CF like Sutton or Hartson
What happened to jobo
—
probably dealing with the shock that to get his Covid vaccine in EK he has to go to the Alastair McCoist Complex
😱
Let’s all
I posted last week that my elder brother is booked in there for 14 Feb – said they’re taking the wet.
Seriously though haven’t seen Jobo on for ages
Scullybhoy,
There is plenty of data to suggest they aren’t. He’s deteriorating (with age) and that’s part of the reason they aren’t blowing teams away.
Their more effective contributors are younger, faster, fitter.
The consequence of Scott is lots of running around aimlessly, drawn out of position (we seen it at Killie and lost a goal to it yesterday) and the inability to get back when players break past him. It also makes Callum a poorer player overcompensating for him.

Gene- he left for Sentinel Celts on a Bosman…
Interesting article in the Sunday Times about our new CEO , by a guy called Mark Palmer

Sorry to hear he’s no longer posting been on here for years – a real Celt
Sevco doing what Sevco always do.
Limp through the second half of the season as the reality of
– spending all the money and
– using up most of the energy on “the chase”
… during the first half of the season bites.
As for us?
My biggest frustration is what the outcome MIGHT have looked like if we’d been JUST A LITTLE BIT better.
The general malaise is well documented.
All the could haves, would haves and should haves? They’ve been debated copiously.
But if there had been just a marginal uplift in organisation I truly believe
1. Calum doesn’t concede a last minute penalty at Pittodrie (3-3).
2. Young Oko-Flex doesn’t check his 89th minute run against Livi and has a tap in. (0-0)
3. Duffy doesn’t panic in the 92nd minute when surrounded by Celtic players and lamely present the ball to Hibs’ Nesbitt four yards out (1-1)
4. Kris – one on one – lashes the ball past the keeper at Livi to make it 1-3 on the night. (2-2).
Tiny margins.
Turned 12 points in to 4.
Turn a credible league title race in to a high probability outcome.
Hail hail
Keep The Faith
Gene- absolutely
major betting coup on the go today that could cost the bookies many millions
3 non-descript horses running today were plunged on last night at big prices with various bookies in what was obviously a co-ordinated plan
2 of them have already won
if Gallahers Cross wins the 4.25 at musselburgh then the bookies have been stung big time
1 online bookies said it will cost them millions so the total cost could be 10 million at least
will be big news if it happens
and will no doubt have the police looking into it for anything dodgy going on
A LOT OF UNHAPPY CUSTOMERS AT CELTIC.
PACMAN REPITITION
WE WILL GIRN YOU EVERMORE
GENE
I made that very point yesterday , our wing backs are limited in advanced areas / by line ,because they don’t have the option of throwing one into the box because we don’t have a
Hartson , Sutton or the KING of KINGS to get on the end of crosses.
Saint Stubs
Thanks for the information on Adam McLean didn’t realise he was a contemporary of Jimmy McGrory amazing that players who played together scored goals one thousand apart, or is it?
Sorry that should have been Saint Stivs , autocorrect!
!!BADA BING!!
Why , when we have a far superior squad are we weaker when using our subs .
5 subs on in the second half to combat tiredness/lack of stamina should see us control games but we seem to falter / fade rather than pushing on and seeing the game out.
