  1. SFTB .

     

     

    The story of the coaches was good, did these guys get to pick the Preston away strip as well.

  2. fourstonecoppi on

    I really hate pre season games and know what their purpose is..but this is pretty pish tbh.

  3. What we are watching is the result of years of mismanagement, we had the chance a few years back to kick on, invest in the team and go to the next level, we chose the OF instead, so we really shouldn’t have any complaints, instead of gloating and gorging on jelly and ice cream, we should have been demanding that we invest instead of the above, but it is what it is, we as a support will suffer while the suits rake it in, same as it ever was.

  4. Abada, Rogic and Edouard have brought a real energy and sharpness to the attack.

     

     

    It’s a scary predicament to be in, but just on the 10 minutes I’ve seen I’d pick O’Connor over Ralston at right back every time.

  5. SICK and TIRED of Celtic signing projects!!! we desperately need experienced professional football players!!

  6. As an aside,

     

    I was doon parklea this morning, watched games on 3 different pitches over a few hours.

     

    I had no skin in any game, just observing.

     

     

    A semi final was on, and first time i ever heard this, a coach telling his team, they needed to go down if touched in the box, cos they should have had a pen in the first half.

     

     

    Back on the pitch one fella did, and the penalty followed. Scored, then another,

     

     

    Then the play acting, time wasting, and general “game management / cheating continued.

     

     

    A new one on me a guy shouted to the referee that the opponent had sworn.

     

     

    The ref also made me feel it is evolving to be a non-contact sport, as fouls galore for the minor of things.

     

     

    The goalkeeper, went down 3 times at corners or kicks, and one was with no one there, he rolled about for sometime, and coach came on.

     

     

    I asked someone who the teams were, ……………… i wont say but ………

     

     

    they were under 13s

     

     

     

     

    then the play-acting and time wasting began, quite blatant,

  7. abada has pace and good taker of the ball – rifled a great ball into the box but guess what ? we don’t have a #9

  8. I wonder if Ajeti would have enjoyed those crosses in from Abada?

     

     

    We look quite creative in the final third.

     

     

    A settled defence before too long is an absolute must.

     

     

    Ange will be learning about individuals. A few looking off the pace. Right back is a priority area for me.

  9. My God – we are in a bad way – maybe, just maybe, we might have the semblance of a first-team by sometime in September….of course by then we maybe out of Europe and trailing in the league. If anyone can offer any alternative view, please pipe-up….but with solid reasoning, not, just mad love of Celtic and blind faith.

     

     

    “Love without madness is not love”

  10. we are a long long way off it – the board needs to get some serious experienced players into this team. At the moment we will struggle to finish 4th – NOT KIDDING!!

     

     

    Every great team ever has built from foundations – we have ZERO foundations. Don’t know who our keeper is , don’t have a dominant trio at the back – lack bite in midfield and don’t have a striker with presence.

     

     

    Dom and Ange cant play subutteo with this team – we need experience!!@!@

  11. i am going to complain to John Paul Taylor, I noticed on tv there someone was sitting in my seat.

  12. from that, i think the team on Tues is:

     

     

    barkas

     

     

    ralston No Idea Welsh Taylor

     

    Shaw mcGregor

     

    Abada Turnbull Henderson

     

    Edouard

  13. Dont know whats worse,the team or Celtic TV.How is it,that no matter how big our CHs are,we can’t win a header.Countless chances they had from crosses.One shot on target second half.Preston looked a lot fitter.

     

    Dear God.

  14. Barkas

     

     

    Back 4? Taylor and Welsh to start. The other 2? Names from a hat but Urighide looked the most assured if Nir isn’t fit. Likely to be Ralston at RB – am I missing someone??? Please say I am!

     

     

    Midfield – Cal Mac, Turnbull, Shaw

     

     

    Wings – Ababa, Forrest if fit

     

     

    Eddie

     

     

    Not inspirational.

  15. IniquitousIV on

    Just brutal. The purpose of the game is to put the ball in the rectangular pokey. Most of the team have no idea how to do that. When we get the opportunity, shots are either weak, straight at the keeper, inaccurate, or Christie like into orbit. We had umpteen opportunities to shoot from distance, which were almost all declined. We are still passing the ball backward far too often, which means transition from defence to attack is painfully slow.

     

    On the plus side, the Israeli lad should play on Tuesday, Edouard must accompany Ajeti, and Rogic may have earned at least a half. Defence? Ye Gods! We have no attractive options. I don’t envy Ange taking his ‘best of the worst’ decisions on Tuesday.

    I am going to complain to John Paul Taylor, I noticed on tv there someone was sitting in my seat.

     

     

    I was keeping it warm for you.

  17. I think there could be protests after the game on Tuesday. Our Board’s performance over the last 12 months has been nothing short of self destructive.
