  1. Sorry for the late post but thanks for the updates I had to go out at 3-0 .

     

     

    Well done bhoys

  2. ULAB – that looks great.

     

     

    I seen a few concept kits and they all look good.

     

     

    D. :)

  3. We started playing the 3-5-2 on the back of 2 disappointing performances against Sevco in December.

     

     

    Their pressing game left us penned in with no out ball. We struggled with one upfront and were over run in midfield.

     

     

    I can’t see Neil going back to 4-2-3-1 next weekend. I’d be very surprised and disappointed if we seen Griff return to the bench on the back of a hat trick. Gerrard has had two years to counter act out 4-2-3-1 and I believe we need to give him something new to worry about.

     

     

    Make ourselves compact and they’ll struggle to break us down. With Griff and Eddie upfront, I believe we’ll cut them open on the counter.

     

     

    That said there’s also an argument for pressing up on them given how utterly shite they’ve been lately.

     

     

    I’ll reserve judgment on how I think we should approach the derby for now until I see them tomorrow and Thursday against the Germans.

    Good result today in pretty horrible conditions,3 points nearer our goal 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

  5. ElHamed was great when he came on.

     

    Griff scored a hat trick.

     

    Nir Bitton has played himself into the team.

     

     

    Sevco play a narrow 451.

     

     

    If we play the above three, like I think we should, I would be happy with,

     

    FF,

     

    ElHamed, Jullien, Ajer.

     

    Jamesie, Broonie, Bitton, Calmac, Ryan C.

     

    Griff, Odsonne.

     

     

    Subs: Gordon, Frimpong, Jozo, Hayes, Rogic, Ntcham, Elyounoussi

     

     

    However I am perfectly happy to leave it to Lenny to decide.

  6. Leigh.

     

    Kudos to Neil and all the staff at CP.

     

    There was no public statements from the management or players on Leigh’s situation.

     

    Only a public commitment to stand by him while he worked out whatever demons he had, and to nurse him through to full fitness.

     

    Neil was particularly protective of him no doubt due to his own experience.

     

    Leigh has repaid his manager, and the fans, by providing us with a vital option in the home stretch to the NIAR.

     

    I’m sure the full squad and any future signings will recognize that Celtic players are not just an asset in the balance sheet but also a respected member of the Celtic family.

     

    Hail Hail Neil Lennon.

     

    What a man.

    anyone getting the Bonfligi link to work

     

    _____

     

     

    Yes , works perfectly and many thanks to GG. ( once again )

     

     

    HH to all the journey continues.

  8. EspiritoDeCelt on

    ROBINBHOY 5:29 PM – Good team selection sir. For me, very similar, but I would swap Rogic for Christie and put Calmac in the middle of the midfiel 3 with instructions to be the attacking midfielder with Christie palying deeper in disruptive defensive role. I guess Forrest would be sacrificed

     

    Forster,

     

     

    Bitton, Jullien, Ajer

     

     

    Frimpong,Brown, McGregor, christie, Hayes

     

     

    Edouard, Griffiths

  9. fairhill bhoy on

    I would start the same team with the same instructions like the last visit there,injuries allowing

  10. EspiritoDeCelt on

    My alternate 4-3-3 * (4-5-1 in defense) formation for Ipox next week is:

     

     

    Forster

     

    Frimpong Julien Ajer Taylor

     

     

    Biton Brown McGregor

     

    Forrest Christie

     

    Eddy

     

     

    *if fit then play Ntcham for Biton in midfield, but this 4-3-3 is a workhorse formation designed to be physical and energetic without the ball. Under no circumstances should we start at Ibrox with Rogic as he does not have the legs and pressing game. They key is to put Christie on the left wing due to his defensice qualities and to get him to track back and help Taylor while using his attacking quality in the final third. When Sevcos wingbacks have the ball then well spread out to a 4–5-1 retrieve the ball then bang!

  11. PHILBHOY on 7TH MARCH 2020 5:27 PM

     

    I really hope Leverkusen beat them 10-0.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    My old Dad, god bless and rest him, taught me not to hate.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    As far as the mankies go, I have let you down Dad.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Sorry!

    Understandable Philbhoy :O)

  12. fairhill bhoy on

    Thought the difference in having elhamed playing in the back three was obvious when he came on

  13. El Hamed must start next week.

     

     

    Forster

     

     

    Ajer Simonovic Julien

     

     

    El Hamed Brown Bitton McGregor Forrest

     

     

    Griff. Eddie

     

     

    D. :)

  14. A superb Celtic performance. We are focused and highly motivated and it shows. Neil has done an Incredible job.

     

     

    Leigh, Jamesie, Eddie and Nir excelling. El Hamed is destined to be top drawer – whoever recommended him – well played.😉👍

     

     

    3-5-2 @ the hate factory and smash them.

  15. EspiritoDeCelt on

    ROBERTTRESSELL I think NL will go 3-5-2 since we have earned the right to gamble a bit and get at them since they will be knackered from the Leverkusen game. if fit then Ntcham plays in midfield otherwise put christie in the midfield 3 for his tireless energy to play a more disruptive role. Griff and Eddy versus their centre backs should prevent them stepping up an feeding the midfield, but it is the Sevco wingbacks that we need to press back to Frimpong and Hayes should go all out attack.

  16. Excellent result today… we must look like a runaway juggernaut to the folk at Ibrox, our league form has been nothing short of phenomenol.

     

     

    Leigh’s hat-trick the icing on the cake.

     

     

    Hope it earns him a Scotland call up… it should do.

     

     

    BHOYLO83 @ 5:25 PM,

     

     

    I have no idea why folk want to have a dig at Brendan Rodgers over his handling of Leigh. That myth was put to bed by the mhan himself on his return…

     

     

    “It was a slow drip that was building up and building up, and (former manager) Brendan Rodgers saw that and stepped in,” Griffiths said. “I owe a thank you to him because if he never stepped in who knows where I’d be.

    I’ve seen very odd “finger pointing” recently; over mental health issues, child sexual abuse, discrimination and more… It’s not areas that folk need to be point scoring on.

     

     

    Hail Hail

  17. I have suffered from depression and know how it felt….for me.

     

     

    I don’t know how Leigh felt but so so glad he is where he is now.

     

     

    Chin up wee mhan and remember…………….it’s good to talk!

  18. fairhill bhoy on

    CHAIRBHOY-always remember Rodgers in the interview after MD hat trick against the Huns .He stuck up for griff and not for the last time

  19. Every day before training commences this week, Lenny should sit the players down and force them to watch the Gerrard celebrations from the 29th.

  20. Forster

     

    El Hamid, Jullien, Bitton

     

    Brown, McGregor

     

    Forrest, Rogic, Elyounoussie

     

    Griffiths, Edouard

  21. fairhill bhoy on

    PHILBHOY-me to mate,and still do .The wee guy full of shite and bluster you met is just my barrier

  22. Feck all they teams are good 😂😂😂

     

     

    As long as we get in about them.

     

     

    Win the midfield battle

     

     

    D. :)

  23. FAIRHILL BHOY

     

     

    I had it pretty bad.

     

     

    A long story.

     

     

    Now, every day, I sit somewhere quiet for a minute or two and go over what is good in my life today.

     

     

    Always end up feeling good.

     

     

    Sets me up for the day.

     

     

    Take care!

  24. We needed to win today. And we did, in style. Great win in difficult conditions.

     

     

    Petec: thanks for the good wishes this morning. Hope you are well.

  25. Canamalar it looks like OCD obsession on

    Terje…,

     

    Disagree on Elyounoussie he’s not showed enough since his return and should not IMO be getting a game ahead of Christie.

  26. FAIRHILL BHOY

     

     

    You were a gent…………oh and taller than that!

     

     

    Talk about it and take care!

     

     

    There is always a way!
