   I like Griff,but when did he become Henrik Larsson?If he had played from the start,we could have lost 2-0.Think about it.

    

   The team that played got the result most of us were predicting.According to the reporting a few did not play well.Chance to sort that out next week.They got a 0-0 draw at home last round to a team with a woeful record.

   Rapid have equalised against Ajax. Please get a winner Rapid…and all will be forgiven ;)

   Great Pics on Celtic Twitter of Boyatas reaction after goal. He gets Celtic now.

   For next weeks defensive strategy, where would you get a burnt out bus to park?

   Rapid draw.

    

    

   Celtic remain one of the 3 home teams, out of 15, who won their CL tie

    In relative terms Griffiths is our Henkel right now….
12. Almore on 29th July 2015 9:58 pm

    Slender lead for second leg, but a lead none the less. Only heard commentary for last 30 minutes where Celtic seemed to be on top. Quarabag have home advantage and weather conditions they are used to so it is squeaky bum time for the next week.

     

     

    Hopefully, Griffiths was kept off with the intention of starting him next week. An early goal by us will make things difficult for them.

     

     

    Gearóid: band sorted for Easter 2016.

     

     

    See you all on Saturday.
13. RWE on 29th July 2015 9:58 pm

    Only Celtic and Red Bull Salzburg as home teams won.

     

     

    Rest were 3 draws and an away win.

    You take 1-0 all day long….. A decent result in Europe these days.

     

    We score over there, which I think we will, then they need 3.
24. ....PFayr supports WeeOscar on 29th July 2015 10:03 pm

    Ciftci continues to do little to justify his starting slot
25. Hamiltontim on 29th July 2015 10:04 pm

    Cults

     

     

    I completely agree, I just can’t understand Ronny not starting with Griffiths. Listen we won and that’s the most important thing but I think he took a gamble that we can’t afford to be taking.

    Absolutely no offence but does it matter how others got on?
26. LogicAl on 29th July 2015 10:05 pm

    Thanks to all for updates.

     

    Any Cork City Celts recommend the best place to watch the game on Saturday? Few bars listed on Celticbars.com but would appreciate input and definite coverage?

     

    Don’t really want to sit in a corner watching the 19″ portable while Liverpool/Chelski/Manure are on proper TV.

    Celtic fans…In context.

     

    .Only Celtic red bull and panathanakios won at home in C/l qauls…Think about it…..I Think we will go through…

32. corkcelt on 29th July 2015 10:08 pm

    Don’t know PF, he seemed to be playing quite well judging from commentary. He definitely needs a goal or two to boost his confidence but he seems to have done OK in general play tonight.
33. sixtaeseven - Gardez la Foi on 29th July 2015 10:09 pm

    One nil victory is very good at this level.

     

    It means (unless we lose early goal…) , we are the guys in control over there.

     

    They need to attack.

     

    We bide our time.

     

     

    Anything is possible.

     

     

    It would be a pity to be out of Europe before the season starts, but UEFA know what they’re doing…

    .

     

     

    Apologies for thinking Celtic TV would go to a Live Video Feed at 9pm GMT..

     

     

    I should have know it was a Delayed Tele-Cast..

     

     

    Setanta did this for Years in Oz..

     

     

    Unfortunately it usually meant Setanta went for the Cheap broadcast deal..

     

     

    Hopefully Celtic TV have learned a Lesson from Tonight as they had to take the Live Wall comments off as the Complaints were getting racked up..

     

     

    I think Normally in Europe the Away team buys the rights first or has first option.. In Qualifiers anyway.. Then sell them (Rights) on..

     

     

    So maybe it was hard for Celtic to show Live..

     

     

    Funny feeling we might get a Statement Re; No Live feed for Overseas Subscribers as a Few were Spitting the Dummy..

     

     

    Keep The Faith

    LogicAl, The Friars Walk Tavern is the best Celtic Bar in Cork by a mile.
38. jimthetim53 on 29th July 2015 10:12 pm

    Maybe we should go back to 4-4-2 over there and play both Griffiths & Cifcti.
40. stebhoy on 29th July 2015 10:12 pm

    conceding at home is psychologically damaging – i suspect teams who score away from home in these fixtures have a higher % chance of qualification (doh). Hence RD being cautious and playing 1 up front.

     

     

    I’d rather he played both together and probably gave them too much respect (having said that we may have conceded a goal or two).

     

     

    We are not fully match fit/ready and still gelling so we have to agree with RD selection.

     

     

    From what i hear from friends at the game , Cifti held the ball up well and could/should have scored at least 1. He will score goals but i think his real value for celtics system will be bringing others into dangerous positions and increase midfield scoring.

     

     

    Give it time!

    Minceyheidmhan,

     

    Paid a few bob for CTV premier and seen the goal on a dodgy phone uploaded to interweb before I got to see it through the medium I paid for. What was the fcuking point of paying that money if they are not going to provide the service.
