    Dallas jnr was involved in the game . Because once again celtic didn,t kill the game off early , we are not converting the chances our play merits , and sooner or later , it will cost us .

    CLOGHER CELT on 25TH JANUARY 2017 3:59 PM

     

     

    Robert Burns,

     

     

    Robbie’s sister, Agnes ‘emigrated’ to County Louth around 1817, there’s a cottage there called ‘Burn’s Cottage’. It’s a lovely place called Stephenstown Pond, near Dundalk. Agnes and her husband, William Galt worked there for the landlord, Matthew Fortescue.

     

     

    Very interesting post and it projects Rabbie Burns in a new light for some.

    Nice wee three points last night to wreck a few hun homes for the weekend-Wright and Dallas included. Difficult game,efficient display,three points and job done.

     

     

    A record equalled,so well done to everyone involved in that.

     

     

    HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY to all of our friends still incarcerated there at Her Majesty’s Pleasure. Though in Macjay’s case,it may have been His Majesty when he got captured and sentenced.

     

     

    Well done also to my oul’ Dad,25/1 for Boyata first goal. Can pick sod all when he’s wi me!

    Don’t know much about poetry, don’t know the Great Chieftain o the Pudding Race ( I don’t think), but I got a lovely Burns supper yesterday. So hail to Rabbie.

     

     

    Is Jan 30th ( St Andrew’s) not the bigger date that has virtually superseded Burns day in modern times?

    Roll on Sunday

     

     

    Only the 2nd trip over this season but can’t wait.

     

     

    Brendan and the team doing a fantastic job .

  21. kitalba on

    Dedryck Boyata is going to wake up this morning and he is going to smile. He might even dare feel a wee bit proud of himself.

     

     

    He has been through the confidence war and if he hasn’t won it yet, it looks like he is going to be some player when he finally does.

     

     

    Some magically gifted players lose the confidence battle – George Connelly – I’ve no doubt Boyata is a player too, how good he’ll be is up to him.

     

     

    I hope Celtic give Craig Gordon a 2 year extension on his contract with a wage befitting of a Celtic Number 1.

     

     

    I hope Celtic give Kieran Tierney a 10 year extension to his contract.

     

     

    I hope Scott Brown reaches at least 501 games in a Celtic strip.

     

     

    A wee charity sweepstakes as to the final number of games he plays, and goals he scores, might be an idea to help fund an orphanages needs.

  23. kitalba on

    From The Herald:

     

     

    Forget Dembele and Sinclair, we must stop Scott Brown if we are to create another shock at Celtic Park, says St Johnstone’s Murray Davidson

     

     

    But the St Johnstone midfielder admits it will take something special to complete a hat trick of shock results in tonight’s rearranged Premiership match.

     

     

    Davidson, who has recovered from a bout of flu which wrecked his winter break, recalls bucking the odds to win in Glasgow’s East End two years ago with a Danny Swanson wonder strike and back in 2011, when the captain Dave Mackay slotted home the winner.

     

     

    But he admits Brendan Rodgers’ record-chasing side are different proposition these days.

     

     

    While summer arrivals Moussa Dembele and Scott Sinclair have sparkled, Davidson insists it’s rejuvenated warhorse Scott Brown who has steered Celtic to within 90 minutes of matching the Lisbon Lions’ 50-year-old 26-game unbeaten run.

     

     

    Davidson said: “Every time I have seen him this year he has been the one driving them on. He is a big player for them. I don’t know what was up with him over the last couple of years but he is extremely influential again. He has a massive part in the way Brendan Rodgers wants his Celtic side to play. I know Dembele and Sinclair have been making headlines but I’d rate Brown their best player.

     

     

    “But they have such a big squad you can’t afford to focus on one player or you will come undone. We are just looking for a positive result for us. It has nothing to do with stopping a Celtic record. They might be concentrating on that but it doesn’t affect us.”

     

     

    Davidson knows St Johnstone have their work cut out to stem a green tide which has been engulfing opposition teams.

     

     

    He said: “I have played in a couple of wins at Celtic Park.

     

     

    “When Dave Mackay scored our winner they actually got a penalty early on. We had been told to keep it tight and I remember looking up and seeing something like three minutes had gone. But Peter Enckelman saved from Kris Commons and we went on to win 1-0. Last year Swanny scored a cracker and again we won 1-0. But this is a different proposition. It’s probably the strongest Celtic team for four or five years. It’s going to extremely tough but we have to go there and be confident we can put on a good show and get a result. We have done it in the past and we have to go there and try and do it again.

     

     

    “It is such a big pitch it is impossible to defend for 90 minutes. So when we get possession we can’t afford to give it straight back to them. That just makes your job twice as hard. You have to make them work and go there and be organised. No one expects us to get anything. We have nothing to lose. From the outside everyone thinks it will be three points for Celtic.

     

     

    “Maybe it suits our game when we go away and have to sit in a bit and hit on the break. We know we are capable because we have a good away record this season but it is an extremely tough game for us. We have got results at Pittodrie, Tynecastle and Ibrox but this is the biggest test of the lot because there’s no getting way from the fact Celtic will win the league. Up to now they have been the best team in the country by a long way. They have only dropped two points all season, up in Inverness.”

     

     

    He explained: “I thought I was on my out with the flu. I came in one day and didn’t feel great. I trained but was bedded for three or four days. I was off for a week in total. But I’m fine now. I actually said I didn’t want a flu jab this year because I always seem to have a reaction and take ill when I get one. I suppose it could have come at a worse time because it was during the break and there were no games.”

  24. Greenpinata on

    Kitalba,

     

     

    Hope you are keeping well

     

     

    I don’t think George Connelly’s well documented issues could be attributed to a confidence issue.

    What did Griffiths do? (re the petted lip)

     

     

    ——–

     

     

    Body language mhate. Various wee things Especially at the end where he was on the pitch longer than anyone else then walked the breadth of the pitch towards the tunnel with his head down like a wee P7.

     

     

    That said I’d have had him after 60 mins cos big Moussa was having a night where it just wasn’t going for him.

    Good morning friends from a crisp, dry, prtty clear skied East Kilbride.

    Griffiths must have a good chance of starting on Sunday against Hearts, given his record against them.

  34. jmccormick on

    Morning everyone from a chilly east end of London. Long day ahead but I am not the only one, out with the lhad last night and he is pretty excited about his trip to Lisbon this weekend. He’s a lucky Bhoy.

     

    Take care everyone. HH

    You are not wrong mate, but I am not going there either!!

  36. thetimreaper on

    Just seen the highlights there. You’ve got to laugh at the St Johnstone centre halve falling down like he’d been shot after Broony nudged him in the back. All after his team of hatchet men had been ploughing through everything in sight. P*** off.

    I’ve found that the French are by far the best at Toasting the Lassies.

     

    Look what they did to Joan of Arc!

    Hail! Hail!

    Listen the wee all know ,the ref Dallas, isn’t particularly a good ref,last night some of his descions,were awful,but for some to come on here and say he was letting off with some of the tackles that St Johnstone,they were dishing out,ok he should have booked a few,,but I will say this ,they were denied a stonewall penalty,so at times it works both ways, verdict on the Referee,poor,

  40. Joe Filippis Haircut on

    Good Morning Bhoys a good win last night maybe im getting old I could not see anything wrong with the goal that we were disallowed.I thought we might have got a wave from Eboue at half-tme but he was a no show. H.H.
