    The Limerick Lickspittle (Tom English) bumps his drunken gums and nobody on BBC Scotland has the courage to cut him off. #embarassing

    Serraci needs more first team games to get his fitness up ,Tierney is a shadow of himself,i think there will be at least 6 quality players signed in the summer,along with a new young quality coach wih his own staff,,Sinsalo is a fine young goalkeeper ,but he needs a boot up the archie ,

    6-2 hmmm i like that score .

     

    I,m sure that Mon managed us to a similar result against someone else?

     

    Also it,ll do the goal difference a power of good!!

    Poor comment IMHO. No need for that, especially today. IF you read what TIMBHOY actually said I don’t think there was much there that was/is contentious. Reasonable viewpoints, put reasonably clearly without malice.

     

     

    Is that not what this blog is about?

    Today, in extra time we saw a spirt, a sense of adventure that’s been muted for too long this season.

     

     

    Of today’s starting line-up I’d suggest the following get pass marks for their teamwork, progressive play and indomitable spirit.

     

     

    Sinisalo – Ralston – Tierney – Hyunjun Yang – Nygren (borderline though today) – Maeda (a player reborn today) – Iheanacho – Forrest.

     

     

    The remainder of the season is going to be a dogfight, so we need players of McGregor’s proven calibre, to regain his bravery (and not give away so many free kicks) , and play with an attacking assurity that spreads to those around him to believe in themselves, and return to Celtic’s overwhelming attacking style that our opponents can’t compte with.

     

     

    What we need is a confident team that won’t be derailed by questionable refereeing/linemen/VAR decisions or the media from their target of defying the odds and winning the league and cup double.

     

     

    We can dream.

    Good evening CQN

     

     

    Well that was eventful.

     

     

    When all said and done?

     

     

    Celtic win.

     

     

    To be enjoyed.

     

     

    Board haters’ reaction times when St Mirren equalised?

     

     

    Usain Bolt would have proud of them.

     

     

    Poor stuff when there’s a game to be won.

     

     

    “Take a day off” doesn’t cut it.

     

     

    Some can’t take seconds off it seems.

     

     

    As for the other notable lament?

     

     

    “St Mirren threw it away” and similar.

     

     

    🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

     

     

    St Mirren emptied every tank to achieve parity with their opponent in a winner takes all semi …

     

     

    … with the prospect of two trophies in one season dangling tantilisingly in front of them.

     

     

    … and collapsed in extra time as a result.

     

     

    Well played Celtic.

     

     

    MOTM contenders IMHO – Daizen, Tony, Kelechi, James.

     

     

    PS – Brendan Rodgers did a lot of great things while at Celtic.

     

     

    Maybe not right up there but potentially very significant – using his often criticised speed dial to persuade Kelechi to join us.

     

     

    An absolute class act.

     

     

    Two weeks running he had assorted snarlers in his pocket.

     

     

    5th goal.

     

     

    Out of my way children. Watch and learn.

     

     

    Good thing he isn’t ¾ fit.

     

     

    If he was, he wouldn’t be at Celtic.

  20. Celtic Mac on

    That is three wins in a row. With a home game to come next Saturday @ 5.30pm

     

    We’ll take the Cup Final to the bank. And concentrate on the SPL

     

    And, remember folks, there is nobody else going for 5 SPL titles in a row. Apart from us.

     

    Got to take the positives into next week, and there are some, and hopefully a sense of belief that we can still win this league….

     

    One game at a time.

  22. Bhoyjoebelfast on

    With the season nearly at an end, I’m sure the board have had enough time to evaluate the situation regarding who stays and goes. Money will have to be spent wisely,and not on jokers we were landed with.I know we are still in contention for a league and cup double…..but, at times I still scratch my head and wonder how we are chasing two trophies.Strange game today……but got through in the end.Some injury w

    6-2 is a MON scoreline,

     

     

    Brendan Rodger’s ‘moby contact’ and former player ‘free agent’, looked closest to a no 9 Celtic had gotten in three transfer windows and still does. The astonishing decisions to sell Kyogo then Idah with days left in windows without adequate replacements, substracting 40 goals between them, haunts Celtic.

     

     

    A burst of Iheanacho ‘fitness’ in each of Celtic’s six impending cup finals might be as good as it gets, today Celtic supporters saw all sides of MON’s fairy tale finish go into extra time today and continuing next week in Parkhead verse Neil Lennon bashed

     

    Falkirk. Iheanacho’s second, with no back lift necessary, was a thing of beauty.

     

     

    Dane Murray Celtic prospect, takes the lead over

     

    on loan Ben Arthur and Tony Ralston is another key low earning back up player at 27, who never lets Celtic down. James Forrest still the only winger that can play a weighted cross, his latest won the game, and probably got him another year as Celtic’s irreplaceable Peter Pan.

     

     

    The second half dip happened again, and extra time in a league game would suit us sometimes, substitutions under MON can be puzzling but ‘they’re usually worthwhile’ Good value for Saints fans eight goals all in their Mt. Florida onion bag, typical if a bit eventually, a proper Celtic Sunday in Hampden points to a glimmer of some Celtic summer sunshine.

  26. Back to Basics - Glass Half Full on

    Celtic Mac @ 7:00pm – agreed.

     

     

    We need to play better than we played today to beat Falkirk at home.

     

     

    IF we do?

     

     

    We’ll need to play better again to beat Hibs away.

     

     

    IF we do?

     

     

    We’ll need to play better still to defeat R2ngers at home.

     

     

    IF we do?

     

     

    We’ll need to raise it another notch to beat Motherwell away.

     

     

    IF we do?

     

     

    We’ll need to play our best occasion of the season to beat Hearts at home to win the league.

     

     

    The big IFs are deliberate.

     

     

    We are not favourites.

     

     

    We are not in brilliant shape.

     

     

    But we are still there.

     

     

    The longer we stay in it, the more the other two will wobble.

  27. mmccartney on

    Every sub played a big part today. Over 90 minutes we should be using our strength in depth in the M/F area, bringing our our subs on earlier and pressing every team up high for 90 mins not just the first 20 mins.

     

    Sinasola was great with his punched clearances in a crowded six yard box.

  28. Saint Stivs on

    full disclosure. l went down the stairs on 90 minutes and 2-1 up.

     

     

    got to the exit and fella says they equalized.

     

     

    i couldnt face climbing the stairs again so left.

     

     

    in car in 4 minutes. down aitkenhead road as 4 goals are scored. the roars heard moments before the radio signal.

     

     

    strange science.

     

     

    i was home before full time.

     

     

    that will teach me missed some unique history.

  29. The Blogger Formerly Known As GM on

    Delighted with the result today, particularly when it looked in the balance.

     

     

    A few random thoughts – could scoring 6 goals be the catalyst to spark better performances in the 6 cup finals that lie ahead?

     

     

    Was it a coincidence that we scored 4 goals with neither the captain nor KT on the pitch?

     

     

    I feel slightly guilty for saying it, but these two need to step up and drive the team FORWARD.

     

     

    Which brings me to another point- our chances of winning the league will be reduced by relying on Tounekti and Yang. If you don’t have the players to play the system, change to a system that allows you to play your best players.

     

     

    Do Ihenacho and JF have 6 hours of football in their legs?

     

     

    I hope so. An hour per game from each could be vital.

     

     

    Bring on The Bairns and let battle commence.

    More of the same from this schizophrenic Celtic team today: first half was decent with a couple of goals that could easily have been more, before a half-time team talk that turned the game upside down. Second half lacked control or purpose, and was entirely absent of quality. The Saints goal rattled us, and they looked more likely as time went on. The subs initially made little or no impact, if anything, we looked even less confident and continued to play on the back foot, while largely out of possession. It was of no surprise when Saints increasing pressure ultimately led to their equalizer – a fine strike, though, it was as preventable as it was predictable.

     

    The extra time chaos is beyond reasonable explanation – from nowhere, there appeared some energy and belief, which resulted in the most bizarre 4-goal 6-minute spell. WTF!?!?!?

     

     

    Jamesie is a pure legend, and his composure and drive delivered a ball to Kelechi, who is beyond doubt the best natural finisher that we have. Maeda was for most of the game a “new man”, and what a relief it must be that he grabbed a goal! I agree with others regarding our best starting forward line, and if we persist with 4-3-3, I’d really like to see MON select Daizen, Kelechi and Jamesie. I’d take whatever minutes they can give us.

     

     

    The midfield is a real worry. There is no obvious first choice 3, and we never seem to get the 3 we play to gel and exert sustained consistent control against lesser quality opposition. In possession we can be slow and ponderous, but more concerning is how passive we are out of possession. Physicality and energy is a problem, but even the system and patterns do not seem comfortable or well understood. CalMac operating as a deep midfielder, playing sideways passes and pointing all over the field is painful to watch. As captain, he plays in a role which inevitably compares him to recent greats like Lennon and Brown, but he does not have the same physical attributes as those two – no mean streak, no snap or bite in the tackle. This is compounded by the absence of these traits in his fellow midfielders. Just consider the players offering some “dig” alongside Lennie and Brown over the years; Lambert, Petrov, Robson, Hartley, Bitton, Kayal, Ledley and Wanyama!

     

     

    The defense has at points this season performed well even with all of the forced changes. In most games I would suggest that it is the lack of protection from our midfield that exposes our defense in the most critical areas, and individual errors result, or a collective failure to clear hopeful balls into the danger area. Once under pressure, there is a nervousness which grows, and we can be so fragile. It appears like a distinct lack of familiarity and trust.

     

    Just to give the defence some defense, these appearance and minutes stats give some interesting perspective;

     

    GK – KS 39 / 3,570′ – VS 14 / 1,350′

     

    LB – KT 37 / 3,425′ – MS 22 / 910′

     

    RB – AJ 5 / 329′ – AR 31 / 1,921′ – JA 14 / 1,193′ – CD 28 / 1,485′

     

    CB – CCV 13 / 1,200′ – LS 50 / 4,257′ – AT 35 / 3,033′ – SW 2 / 75′ – DM 15 /831′ – BA 13 / 939′

     

     

    TIMBHOY163 – agree that Tierney is not the player he was. I’m surprised that Scratchy is not getting more minutes, either as a sub or starter.

     

     

    MURDOCHBHOY – that “spirit and sense of adventure” appeared from nowhere. It gives hope, but the question will remain whether we can flick that switch on demand.

     

     

    B2B1/2F – you are absolutely correct that are remaining fixtures get progressively tougher.

     

     

    BLOGGA – adding to your point, we are not getting enough from either KT or CM, but while I would argue Scratchy is a great option, I don’t know how we get midfield right. There were games last season when McGregor did not play, and we had Engels/Bernardo/Hatate playing with real zip and energy as they bossed games. I just don’t see the personnel and form to replicate that right now. Worrying lack of options.

    Met BGFC and his son WGFC today near the Brazen as they were walking towards Hampden. They don’t post here anymore but great fellows and fine Celtic men. If you’re looking in Raymond and Gabriel it was a pleasure meeting you again. 👍

    Give Jamesie and Kelechi as much game time as is sensible without incurring injury. They are the only two on our books who look capable of increasing our rather modest scoring rate .

  44. Tontine Tim on

    First of all excellent contribution from Back to Basics – Glass Half Full on 19th April 2026 6:44 pm, pretty much saw it the way I did including the board haters with their DD GTF after the baddies equalised in what was an excellent strike as well as how they had shot their bolt in that second half to gain parity before collapsing in extra time, so much for how poorly coached we are tae.

     

     

    Now I have been following Celtic for nigh on 74 years now, well that’s as far back as I can recall my da taking me up in the oul Vale of Leven CSC bus as they were all singing about Patsy Gallacher and Andy McAtee, and I have seen some contentious personnel in that period including board members, managers, coaches, players etc including Bob Kelly who in all fairness Jock rescued his career, Desmond White who Davie Hay once said of him that everything he did was in his opinion for the best of the cub, both Bob and Desmond were CA’s so that might be how they both felt and thought at the time.

     

     

    Sean Fallon who it was said that he only got a game because he walked Bob Kelly’s dug every morning ffs, Alec Byrne mockingly christened as Alice and Frank Brogan who its thought was chased out of parkheid for running away fae the hun thug shearer, both were criticised for being too faint hearted yet on their game were Celtic class, Feed the Bear Big Yogi who had his critics tae but was a star on his day.

     

     

    Charlie Gallagher who my high school maths teacher claimed was the worst player at parkheid and yet 2 years after telling us this I bet he was also greetin on the slopes of the national stadium as his thunderbolt shot crashed off the bar for a waiting wee ten thirty to nod home for the first equaliser and his corner enabled Big Billy tae nod home the winner.

     

     

    Tom Callaghan who it was alleged was Jock’s mole in the dressing room wtf as if Jock needed a mole while Big Billy was there, there have been numerous others like NFL whose late da vowed NEVER to watch the Celts again after seeing him booed for passing the ball back, the same Lenny who I widnae have given hoose room tae after he bailed out on us when Ronny was thrust upon him, btw I agreed on the move to bring Ronny in as assistant manger which hopefully would provide a pathway for our youngsters to break through, but was also glad when he agreed to succeed BR after he walked out on us.

     

     

    Bu in all those years I have NEVER EVER saw anyone, and there are those that I have forgotten, being so divisive than the current Al Qadsiah FC head coach, yes as Back to Basics said, “Brendan Rodgers did a lot of great things while at Celtic” of course he did in his almost 5 seasons during his two stints with us, but its in the manner of how he left that causes me grief and I’m NOT alone here but unlike Lenny who I forgave as he came back got us a treble and but for ravages of Covid might have got us the dreaded 10 and has always been in our camp.

     

     

    So its best if at least until the end of this season when hopefully Calmac is holding the SC high we refrain from discussing him whether good bad or ugly and get behind the Bhoys.

  45. Timbhoy163 on

    Thanks to the 2 Bhoys who told me to keep posting on here ,its not nice being called a clown ,i called out St Stives a few years ago ,it was in bad taste,i apoligised to him ,out of that i try to be a decent Celtic Supporter ,
