  1. GG’ Tribute is very fitting.

     

     

    An Incredible CQNer.

    Enjoyed game, plenty to be pleased about.

     

     

    Penalty very soft, chances at both ends but result means feck all.

     

     

    I certainly hope we keep Scales thought he did well and is not afraid to get retribution.

     

     

    I really like Joe Hart but he made a lot of errors out there, we got away with it today but on another day it could be really costly.

     

     

    Last 20 minutes was hard to judge anyone as all the changes disrupted game,

     

     

    IMO We need a top Keeper and at least 2 more defenders, 3 if Starfelt loves Jaycintha more than Celtic.

    The Love of a Woman supersedes (not supercede as I always thought) even Celtic.

     

     

    Carl was Brilliant Last Season as well.

    We seem to have completely forgotten that GT played 6 games in the CL last season. Nobody saw him getting repeatedly roasted. He was good enough last season

     

     

     

     

    That’s an opinion fella. Passed off as a fact.

     

     

    As you well know, I think it’s completely wrong and I don’t think I’m an outlier in the support. Can’t be arsed with the lazy trope that we need a scapegoat, that’s once again taking the man, not the ball and is always aimed at shutting down debate.

     

     

    He was repeatedly ragdolled by their RW today, in a way we see often in the Champions league. We need better quality and keep GT as an able back-up in an attacking SPFL side. He’s excelled there.

  3. Greg Taylor has the shirt at the moment.

     

     

    He will, I’m confident in saying, fight tooth and nail to keep it. And that is what you want in any Professional team/player.

     

     

    GG’ can relax and watch Celtic frae the best seat in the House.

  4. That bloody commentator started the rumour about Starfelt today. Suggested he was somewhere else and intimated a move.

     

     

    He’s got a twisted ankle and should play Tuesday @ Brendan Rodgers.

    Good news

     

     

    I am glad starlord is in our side and plans to stay

    Also I regularly get emails from non posters having a go at me (mostly well deserved)

     

     

    And from non posters congratulating me for stuff (again, mostly well deserved)

     

     

    Where are you today of all days

     

     

    Post……..no one will bite your head off

     

     

    The worst that will happen is you may be asked if you are a hun, which is a standard Q

  7. “Taylor is too small and too slight for this level”

     

     

    He did fine last season at the highest level.

     

     

    “Where would you rather we spend the cash”

     

     

    To be assured of better than Taylor would cost too much money for a position that doesnt make enough of a difference at that level. The real difference makers are attacking players, that’s where we should be spending our money, and they also make a far bigger difference in the epl than a new shiny left back

     

     

    It’s feels good because it’s looking at weak spots in the team and replacing with better but it doesn’t represent nearly as good value for money as

     

     

     

     

     

    Other rod of the pitch Spending it on players at the

  8. Not sure what happened there:

     

     

    It’s feels good because it’s looking at weak spots in the team and replacing with better but it doesn’t represent nearly as good value for money as spending it on players at the other end of the pitch

     

     

    We need to start winning games at CP. a new slightly better left back won’t help with that

  9. Celtic40me,

     

     

    Topsy turvy mate.

     

     

    We need, equally, to stop leaking so many goals. We’ll get chances. That’s not all GT’s fault (before I trigger you) but arguably we have 2 at the right standard in CCV and AJ. CS and Rocky can fight it out, we need a Forster clone but GT is a massive drop he can’t reach at Euro level when up against that level. Rodgers needs to be more cautious than Angeball too.

     

     

    I’d spend on 4 at 6ish million….I’d spend on a clatter of others next summer around the same price of the back of Abada, Hatate and O’Riley raking in £65m in fees.

     

     

    That’s how you do it. Hving CCV quality across the backline would be transformational. Why can’t we have it?

    “That’s an opinion fella. Passed off as a fact.”

     

     

    You’ve followed that by doing exactly the same yourself.

     

     

    It’s how things work, if you have a strong opinion on something and believe it to be true then of course you argue as if it is.

    —-

     

     

    There’s enough supporting evidence recorded in that first half between Samedo (sp) and GT to fill your boots with. Bloody good player – ex-Benfica and Barca but that’s the gap we need to close.

     

     

    HH

  12. Anyway, we’ve been on this rodeo a few times and to argue against GT makes me look like the hater.

     

     

    I don’t.

     

     

    Massively improved in a system that suited his strengths under Ange.

     

    SPFL elite level

     

    Not good enough for Europe.

  13. BIG WAVY on 29TH JULY 2023 8:16 PM

     

    Topsy turvy mate.

     

     

    It’s not, it’s perfectly logical.

     

     

    Jenz played all 6 games last season. We didnt play a single game with our first choice CB partnership. Welsh played in a game alongside Jenz. We’re already almost guaranteed to have a better defence than last season.

     

     

    We also didn’t lose many goals down his side. I would be happy if you proved me wrong on this. Not your opinion though please.

     

     

    We didn’t take enough of our chances. Shakhtar Donetsk had a fraction of our chances and took more at crucial times. Leipzig outscored us because they had better attackers than ours.

     

     

    “We need to take more of our chances” was heard far more than “Greg Taylor needs replacing”. I don’t remember anyone saying that at the time

     

     

    Spend the money on areas revere the difference will be made, not spend a large amount to ensure we get a better left back

  14. BIG WAVY on 29TH JULY 2023 8:21 PM

     

     

    45 minutes in a friendly versus 6 games on the actual champions league? I don’t think that makes it a fact

  15. Scroll by if you’re sick of me banging on about bias wrt VAR/ refereeing outcomes wrt a newish club in the spfl

     

     

    can we adopt any strategy to counter demonstrable bias in the on pitch events during matches which feature Sevco?

     

     

    can’t think of any mesel – compile a CD, write to Tom Englees, be better than thems in games v thems?

    Hving CCV quality across the backline would be transformational. Why can’t we have it?

     

     

    ============

     

     

    We kissed a lotta frogs to get that quality

     

     

    THerein lies the problem

     

     

    How many quality center backs do you know at a top club thats not getting a game

     

     

    Who is still amazing

     

     

    That we can get on a loan to buy deal for peanuts (for his quality)

     

     

    We are small fsh in a huge pond

     

     

    We could blow all our cash on that one guy and he may still not work out

     

     

    Keep the faith

  17. Only Copenhagen and the Huns scored less goals than us, 4, in the champions league last season

     

     

    How is spending a considerable amount of money on a left back going to make any difference if we’re going into the competition weaker in attacking positions?

     

     

    We needed better attackers last season, we need even more of them now Jota has gone

  18. Enjoyed the game today, our finishing could have been better and we would have had the win we deserved, got to say though Kyogo took his goal with aplomb…

     

     

    Great to see the newbies come in and make a good account of themselves, you forget just how good BR at the details and preparation

     

     

    We have top quality in the dug out and support staff, it shows.

     

     

    MODERATOR1888 @ 7:40 PM

     

     

    Our back 4 were stretched again with pace

     

     

    Neither our midfielders, or wingers have a proper defensive bone in their body

     

     

    What I mean by this is just like last year, in the Champions League, when our play breaks down the turnover very quickly breaches our midfield and our defenders find themselves running backwards with no protection

     

     

    We get overloaded and struggle

     

     

    Big time

     

     

    The other is Taylor is too small and too slight for this level

     

     

    Where would you rather we spend the cash

     

     

    Goalie, centre half, left back, winger and striker

     

     

    Good points.

     

     

    It’s interesting that BR has gone with a 4-3-3, guess that’s due to the fact the players are familiar with it and the qualities of the players available.

     

     

    We need a midfield setup and personnel that are capable of defending, protecting the back four and being creative going forward – one out of three ain’t bad.

     

     

    Where should the money be spent?

     

     

    Firstly and most importantly a top quality defensive midfielder.

     

     

    Then an athletic, fast, left back that is good at dead balls and crossing and defending

     

     

    A top quality goalkeeper, Joe has got a lot going for him and made a great save today but we need another Forster or Boruc

     

     

    Hail Hail

  19. One goal at home in 3 group stage games

     

     

    Big improvement needed if we’re to think about a third place never mind second

  20. In the 6 CL games that Greg Taylor played in .

     

    We lost 15 goals.

     

    I don’t think he was at fault for any though.

  21. If you have the BBC sounds app do yourself a favour , search for John Kane show ( northern soul/soul ) , have a wee dance round and chill , the serious stuff starts next week . South of Tunis would have loved some of the tunes , and probably hated a few as well .

     

    Thank me later .

  27. It’s difficult to comprehend, and his teams were up against more difficult opposition but in his 2 CL seasons Brendan’s Celtic conceded more goals than Ange’s did last season

     

     

    We need to score more goals
