The more I watch Ntcham the more he reminds me of wee 10:30!
Probably as big a compliment as I can pay him!

I’ll still be sweating when he’s my age, hopefully.

I remember asking Marcus years ago, who was the best player in his Celtic U18 team. Immediately he said Paul George, with Cal MacGregor just a bit behind him. Marcus played in the match at Murray Park when the coward Lewis McLeod ended Paul’s career. He has a long memory and hates McLeod and his captain Davies now.

Olly and Bertie in the same sentence. High praise for our Parisien bhoy. Thought he ran the full pitch today. Easily my man of the match. Was funny seeing him up against the older hun fae Old Kilpatrick Docherty. My nephew reliably informed me, that if Docherty went to Saint Peter the Apostle Clydebank, he would not have made the school team. Poor player hyped beyond belief by SMSM.

Exactly !
Am new to this parenting / grandparenting …. life was so much easier when I left all this nonsense to my parents :-)
Again you enjoy worrying about young Jmccormick junior :-)
Whit a day …. beautiful Celtic times ?
VFR
ps In Clydebank, Greg Docherty is known by the nickname Methadone Mick. ??
Florence Tracey RIP
We are one game away from a double treble with a very young squad
I hope Brendan is happy I want Brendan to stay for years
Moussa every inch the multi million pound player today. Ntcham is a machine. CalMac will be one of the finest Scottish players of this generation. Tom Rogic’s footwork would win Strictly Come Dancing. Craig Gordon is developing into a fine goalkeeper ;-) Scott Brown is in a class of one. That lad Tierney has a future.
I felt sorry for Odsonne Edouard. He has to share a lift home with Moussa and Olivier, but he didn’t get on the pitch…awkward!
What a day. By the way – Tom, did we ever find out whit the goalie wiz daein?
DD Son of Sam is developing into a phenomenal player. The Bhoy is shaping unto be absolutely world class.
KTF
Methadone Mick is a tim
Halliday & Docherty & Doran’s
Happy days
Fling in Candyass if you want a bit of sugar
Delaney’s , i remember reading the huns website match report of the game Macleod broke Paul’s leg. After Macleod’s foul on Paul , we scored .
In typical hun style The hun website match had a go at our players for playing on while Paul George lay injured but hee haw said about Macleod’s foul on Paul. .
Dallas
I was in Chandlers watching us win the league that day. My sister and Marcus dad were with me my son’s and nephews and niece. Marcus was driving down to Chandlers to join us. Instead, he spent his Saturday night in hospital all night with Jacko Irvine, Calmac and the bhoy who scored against Barca, Tony Watt with their Irish mate Paul. Would love to see Marcus in direct opposition to the coward Lewis McLeod, sometime soon.
Delaneys,
you sure Docherty is from Clydebank,
am sure his old man stays in Milngavie and was involved in setting up
the Rangers First supporters group
Magnanimous.
Been wrecking my brains all day long to find this word that epitomises the Celtic support.
Humble.

DD 12.04am
You will have better info than me, Tony Watt never listened to anybody tour Calmac wants to listen to every word :-)
He is a wee Celtic star in the making
16 roads
One word
Magic :-)

Spot on, Dochertys Da is part of Rangers last
DD-rip wee flo,what a live
Apologies ghuys, I’m just home and need to go to work in the morning, so I’ll have a quick say
Seriously how good were we today combined with how shite they are, it’s soooo feckin easy, could have been a georgie niven.
Work will be a joy tomorrow,
Get it right up u orange scum
Hail Hail, especially to DD and David 66
Yes, I’m pished TAL
Delaney’s , that would be good if Marcus came up against Macleod. Macleod seems to have vanished , in a footballsense , off the face of the earth.
God night all and sleep well after a great footballing day for us.
Gordy
Not sure mate. He played all his youth football in Clydebank. Chris said he was from Old Kilpatrick.
Murty in his interview is a bit embarrassing for him,he looks fecked
Pur aside the delight I felt today and the excitement of taking a step closer to more history, a strong feeling I had today in relation to Hunco was ‘ is this really it?’
We were good today but holy moly, I can not believe any team would offer so little in a national semi final.
D66
Great day Del.
How good are Olly and Tom?
Green and White Dynamite.

Murty is a broken man.
He supped with the devil.
The Beast has destroyed him.
Sandman’s definitive…
DOUBLE REBEL TREBLE (Almost…) ratings:
“If I’d known it would come to this; if I’d known this wittering fenian would be the apex of our April Sunday of discontent some 3 centuries foretold, I’d never have invaded the rancid dump in the first place.” William of Orange (As told to Dr.Who).
“I love that candy-colored clown they call the Sandman. He brings a sprinkle of stardust to the place with his ratings…” R.Orbison.
“I think he’s a f#####n’ bawbag.” A.Halliday.
BOOMSHAKA! –
GORDON – 9/10
He’s pish. He’s the worst Celtic goalie I’ve seen in my time. He’s past it. He’s injury-prone.
Just some of the rip-roasting roaster rhetoric witnesed on CQN regards the miracle in nets.
Finest shot-stopper I’ve seen in a Celtic jersey, more like. Defied the Ugliest Smurf in Smurfland wilth a world-class reaction/anticipation fingertip wonder-stop. Then brought Papa Smurf’s mutant experiment to tears by comedically saving the open goal whilst sat on his erse.
LUSTIG – 6/10
Mad Mick suffered an identical lapse of concentration to one that cost us a goal against Hearts as CP. Looked shaky but relied on his class to see him through the rest of the game. Took the piss royally by trying to score for the Huns with a stunning sliced volley off the outside of his left foot which smashed off the bar. Still looks a bit off 100% fitness however. I reckon BR is giving hi9m game-time to prep for Russia.
BOYATA – 7/10
Big D had his ‘Boyata’ moment early, but recovered without calamity and was solid. Uncompromising, tuned-in properly, should have scored. Appears to frighten Huns up close.
AJER – 8/10
Another who recovered from an early slip which allowed Portuguese human/Hobbit hybrid Candleintheass to slip the leash. Getting better by the game, losing his cumbersome youthfulness in favour of accomplished experience. Big prospect.
KT – 8.5/10
Bhoy’s one of our own. Relentless enthusiasm for playing brilliantly in a Celtic shirt. Channelled Jinky to drop shoulder and bamboozle Hun furball to help set up 2nd goal. Powered through the game. His seething-angst effect on the gurning hordes is fascinating. But not as charming as…
BROON – 9/10
Swaggering precision and control.
If KT channels Jinky, Broon channels Ash Williams, metaphorical chainsaw cutting swathes through the Hun Armies of Darkness, dismembering their hopes and dreams with righteous fervour. Bona-fide Celtic legend now. The nightmare of Hun generations come to pass; a Celtic player/captain who defies their every sleekit attempt to undermine/inhibit/contain/dominate. The hoodoo to their voodoo.
NTCHAM 9.5/10
My MOTM. Again, the single midfielder tasked with building the bridges between mid-front, igniting the moment as we shuttled around their box. He took it in his stride looking every inch the £4 million prospect Zinedine Zidane so admires. Not a player out there could get near him never mind match his class. That bhoy will be worth more than Moussa in a season or two.
ROGIC – 8.5/10
Big, gangly, languid vein of Aussie gold. Beguiling with his footwork, glides in and out of the game but never out of the danger areas – pops up like a smiling assassin to deal a killer blow. The Huns are terrified of him, but cannot nullify him. When we get him working with the team we look a decent European side. If he could deliver like today, every game, – and for more than an hour – we could start to really dream.
MCGREGOR – 9/10
Defy me, son! Keep defying me! All season, I’ve expressed surprise at his inclusion and been even more surprised at his level of performance. Instrumental in every big performance – Hun games, Zenit, Bayern, even – a bhoy who truly deserves his place in the team; done it the hard way over a number of years; unfancied by complete idiots (like me); yet playing some beautiful football when he’s right on his game.
In a season when the bigger-name players have failed to catch fire, it’s Callum who’s carried the team many times, quietly but effectively filling the gaps the poor form of the glamour bhoys have left.
Right behind Broon in second place for Player of the Year for me.
FORREST – 6.5/10
The Prestwick Flyer never got off the ground but his overall game is far more effective team-wise than ever before – workrate great, threat-level critical for them every time he got on the ball. Didn’t get enough service today; spent most of his time on the park as a water-carrier, but no complaints here.
MOUSSA – 9/10
Looks so damn happy to be playing football sometimes – got a great ‘wee boy in his element’ attitude. Right on it today – ragdolling the Hun scarecrows at the back, bullying them incessantly.
Strength and skill in abundance, greatest pisstake penalty in a Hun game I can remember. A dink with the ‘gaul’ (see what I did there Francophiles?) of Zidane’s in the 2006 World Cup final. Nice sickener for the French-loathing Brit berserkers at the other end.
SUBS:
PADDY – Nice keepy-uppy, twist and tricklster-ing and won a pen. Hope that cameo isn’t one of his last for us.
GRIFF – Ripping it out of them with the Heidy-uppies; big grins.
SINKY – Just not been his season. Hoping he’s not a Bobby Petta one-season-wonder and gets his act together next time. Class is there, nothing happening for him, though. Just imagine the scores we’d rack up if he was on fire…
BR – 9/10
Looked and sounded relieved to have gotten this one over with in his post-match interview. Didn’t rise to the Hun bait, outmanouevred them in the middle by having a couple of players stay wider then normal; negated their centre-mid ‘box’ of 5, had them turning and bewildered, allowed us to pass briskly through the spaces.
BOBBY MADDEN – Jings, he can referee fairly; poor Bobby looked resigned today; that wonderful grim Hun acceptance that there was nothing he could do to help his beloved. Almost matched for teeth-grinding angony by fourth official McLean. Two coupons like Voldemort’splastic surgeon.
OVERALL: 9/10
Professional job done on an amateur outfit. Yappy mongrel mutants put back in their box. They got what they cheered for and the mockery will be epic. Every caveat of sport broken, every maxim ignored; do your talking on the park and be careful what you wish for.
Glorious four but I wanted 7. And i think we might have got that if we’d really, really gone for it. Such a joy to write that. Hunskelping is something I will never tire of.
The Double Rebel Treble.
So nearly there.
Mon the hoops :-))))))
Cults
My son said to me on half hour mark.”FFS da, Yoker Juniors would give us a better game here.”
Many a true word spoken in jest.
I was at the game but watched it again, i thought McGregor was good … he was different class
Delaneys,
could be from OK and his family have moved to Milngavie recently,
but his da was certainly involved in that fans group
SANDMAN
Worth staying up fur:))
Oli and Moussa, class personified today with two perfect penalties, Mrs Starry thought Moussa had missed because I didn’t scream oh ya dancer I just stood gawping at the screen with the sheer audacity and classity of it:))
Young Parisians they are so French they say Tiocfaidh ár lá

AJAXBHOY
First game since 1974? Blinkin’ flip,that’s a l-o-n-g wait.
But,once a Tim…
————————————-
Better late than never, yes? Saw the exhibition match in Toronto a few years back, but haven’t been back to Scotland since 1980 (close season for Celtic). Can’t wait.
Gordybhoy 64-agree ,he played well and his smile is nice to:-))))
Sandman
Good summary. Only mark I would change is Olly Ntcham. He was 10 out of 10 for me. He will run Scottish fitba as long as he is here. This moddleweight boxer type Frenchman is World Class. We are lucky to be witnessing this future superstar in oor Hoops.
Vive la Auld Alliance
Delaneys Dunky on 15th April 2018 8:47 pm
Thanks bhoys
Wee Flo had 7 strong sons and 2 beautiful daughters. The Tracey name is famous in Drumchapel due to her. She loved her family and her Celtic. She died in her sleep happily after 97 years. Her 100 odd Tim grandweans are her wonderful legacy. I love her too.
=====================================
An Epic life.
Simply…Well done.
RIP Flo.
Ajaxbhoy
If you need a ticket for any match, you are welcome to my seat. You need to see more Celtic in the flesh. Any match Ajaxbhoy. Even the huns game or European game.

SANDMAN
Insightful, witty and well written. Delightful prose, more power to your quill.
