  1. For the Gamblers.

     

     

    Get in early with the over 2.5 goals in the first half.

     

     

    I was sure Ronny D would have brought about this regularly, some lamers thought they were bigger than Celtic – they took the piss out of Ronny.

     

     

    For the Bold Fenians….. going over 3.5 will give very good odds. 14/1 @ Bet365 currently.

     

     

    I’m on that.

  2. PETEC -Magical, just….Magical.

     

    Art Of War – Hope yer mums ok – Thoughts n Prayers..

     

    Thoughts and Prayers to every Celt on this blog.

     

    You’ll Never Walk Alone….in the Jungle.

     

    God Bless You All and, Thank You for being Here.

  3. I still think all this ‘roller-coaster-ride’ stuff is a smokescreen for the fact that, Brendan dizny know how to be cynical and, park the bus when need be…..imho.

     

    I still don’t think that Brendan brings to the table the necessary levels of Celtic-cuteness that, Johnny Collins would have….imho.

     

    A Celtic football team on the pitch, led by a Johnny(6-pack) Collins, minus the clique-ringleaders from the dressing room would have been a guid yin. A cute Celtic team who didny gie the ball away and, knows when to close ranks, boot the ball oot the park when need be and, would be well versed in how to take cute fk’s that don’t bore the nickers aff ye and, have James Forrest playing like Arren Robbin, beating players, making chances, scoring cute Celtic goals and, looking happy, also, Jon Collins would be showing the necessary levels of Celtic-cuteness to turn Efe into our best defensive mid-Ya Ya esque type of player that would have the ‘giant’ CL clubs q-ing the length of London Road to sign him but, only to find that the, new Jubilant-Jobo-Hunskelping-Choir had stolen Big Efe’s heart and that he’ll be staying at CP till he looks like Morgan Freeman.

     

    May God Bless the Magnificent Green Brigade – It’s what ‘you’ do to Celtic Park on CL-nights that makes the entire world want to tune in. No wonder the Scottish establishment want to ‘smash’ you. You are, Wonderful, Magical, Amazing but, a wee bit of Celtic-Cuteness widny go amiss….imho.

     

    “You’ll Never Walk Alone…with the…Jubilant-Jobo-Hunskelping-Choir.”

     

    ……off-oot-zzzzz…..

  4. At a loss as to how the Hun mind works. Celebrating our group of death draw as it will give them ( in their deluded minds) the upper hand in the SPL.

     

     

    So how does that work?

     

     

    The theory is that we will be:

     

    1) Distracted

     

    2.) Tired

     

    3) De- motivated

     

     

    The reality , as they will find out soon enough, is likely to be somewhat different.

     

     

    The ‘ distraction’ will amount to 6 games against some of the best teams on the planet . Played in front of sell out crowds, in a raucous atmosphere, this is the reason Celtic can attract the Toure’s, Roberts’, Sinclairs’.

     

    The players will learn more in 90 minutes v this standard of teams than in 38 games v SPL opposition.

     

    Tiredness will not be a factor. The squad is large enough to ensure the likes of Brown will be able to rest throughout the season.

     

    Demotivated? Is the theory then that we would have been super motivated by a failure to qualify and an ‘easier’ EL group?

     

     

    We will at least one more quality player before December, probably 2. We will be stronger, fitter and faster, than all of our SPL rivals.

     

    The experience the younger players will gain, Tierney, Roberts, Dembele, etc, will see them become better players .

     

    The manager will learn more, and of course, to top it all off, financially, we will move from miles ahead of our domestic rivals, by so much more, that we will be out of sight by Feb.

     

     

    Bring em all on.

  5. KEVJUNGLE,

     

     

    The Xavi links were most certainly showing him in a declining light. :))

     

     

    The info to our Schooled Bhoys would be invaluable.

     

     

    Kojo always Championed our Own players being the Only Way.

     

     

    Wise guy Kojo.

     

     

    Personally, I won’t be standing up @ 15 Mins, I have no idea if my Son will decide to stand up. He has his own wee Mind. I dropped it in early though, if you ever meet him, that I wasn’t his Real Father, I said that The Lord Almighty is his Real Father.

  7. Everyone makes mistakes…. Especially me.

     

     

    We have so much to look forward to despite the End Times engulfing us all. :)

     

     

    I’m sure Kojo would highlight defections of Hamas dudes to ISIS.

     

     

    Revelation 3:9

     

     

    There is such a bigger picture……

    Morning bud. All well? Hope so.

     

     

    Brendan won’t ever park the bus. Not even v Barca. Why? Cos it disnae work v the likes of Barca and Man City. Inviting teams with that quality to attack you for 90 mins means you lose anyway.

     

    Brendan will have every player given a role to carry out to the best of their ability . It will be about chasing, harrassing, closing space, and basically working as hard as the can to make it difficult.

     

    It certainly won’t be about stringing 8 across the box. Or 9 or 10.

     

    Let’s leave that nonsense to Craig Levein and his ilk.

     

    We will lose to Barca away, regardless of tactics. Might be 3, might be 6. Probably same story v City. It won’t be down to tactics. It’ll be down to quality of player. A few ££’s v a few hundred million ££’s

     

    If you send me out to race Mo Farrah, all I can do is my best. Lose but learn.

     

    At CP though , strange things happen. Mo might just pull a hammy!!

     

     

    Enjoy the ride. We dreamed of being back in the big time. We are there. Let’s embrace these moments. Get along and re-live the glorious and unique atmosphere that only CP can offer.

  9. The Shaun Ryder types are the Preachers now.

     

     

    Oh Dear.

     

     

    Now you know about the Pyramid and each Step.

     

     

    The Collins Brothers nailed it, intellectually.

     

     

    You got any Change? :))

    Morning teaser time.

     

     

    Which poster included these successive paragraphs in an earlier post entirely impervious to how they contradict each other?

     

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    The only blogs where you can expect to see a uniformity of views are those which are run and favoured by the likes of the SNP cult, Corbynistas and hard right orginisations. – where dissent is seen as treachery.

     

     

    So to call anyone who does not ‘toe the clique/party line, a troll, really defeats the purpose and integrity of the blog – those who label people as such are really saying is “ours is the only truth and we will not accept any criticism”

    Hail Hail fella, hope yer well.

     

    Ye see, I’m a wee bit confused…….

     

    If, it’s all about £’s ?

     

    Why then,…..

     

    Did Lou Macari take an impoverished Celtic team which contained ‘1’ sellable player – John Collins – to ibrokes in 1994 vs all the cheating huns £’s on the pitch and, park the bus and see the cheating huns with all they’re £’s, scrape a draw through a scrappy-og-hunlike equaliser ?

     

    Why did, MO’N go to the Nou Camp and take on that famous Barcelona team with all they’re £’s and, park the bus and defend a 1st leg 1-0 lead ?

     

    Why did, Neil Lennon go to the Nou Camp vs probably the best team that Celtic have ever played and, all they’re Barca £’s and, park the bus and ‘almost’ scrape a famous draw and then, do the same at Celtic Park weeks later and, record one of the clubs greatest results ?

     

    As Slaven Bilic said – “We park a moving bus.” ;-)

    I think there is some truth in that.

     

     

    I remember a great 2-2 at Paradise v Ajax, with Cruyff in his second spell there, in the eighties.

     

     

    We were playing Murderwell on the Saturday, and I was thinking at the time that, after playing against the skill, pace and movement of Ajax, the game at Fir Park would seem easy.

     

     

    We won 7-0, if I remember correctly.

  14. That 2-2 game, I can still see that brilliant, arcing cross that Cruyff put in from way out on the left wing, in front of the Jungle, with the outside of his right foot.

     

     

    Past his magnificent best by then, but still capable of showing glimpses of his genius.

  15. BMCUWP@6:43

     

     

    You selectively quote from the piece because you need something to say – you are what we would have called a “clipe’ at school.

     

     

    Now turned into a “sweetie wife’ looking for a pat on the back from your pals – pathetic.

     

     

    You and your cronies are obsessed – tiny minds embrace tiny thought LOL.

  16. An Teach Solais on

    At the gate at Glasgow Airport waiting for flight when Zadok rings out. The look of bitterness on two sour-faced business types had me smiling. It came from the mobile of a young guy about four behind me in the line but automatically I pulled out mine before realising that I had switched it off before going through security. I smilingly wished them “Good Day” but go no reply. Safety drill now so have to switch off. A great day to all. HH

    vfr800a8, I’ll be there at 1.00 with my wee bro PedroC, his young yin, his pal and yon auld interlektyul jungle jim. He’s my co pilot but a shite driver.

     

    OK, that’s sounds like at least 8, possibly up to 12! St Stivs is picking Dan and his sidekick up and BMCUWP reckons his sisters will be along. If anyone else intends rock up, let me know and I will make sure we all get seated together. I will book a table for 1 o’clock.

     

     

    Tell me what kind of phone you have (please tell me its not a feckin iPhone). If it is, vfr800a8 knows the score on loading and sound a bit geeky anaw. HH

     

    Geeky? Ye can make yer mind up the morra! It’s fairly straightforward for an iPhone. If it’s causing a problem I can do a wee guide for the hard of thinking :>)

     

     

    Some of you bams are still letting the hun shites off too lightly. You need a ZTP ringtone to push the durty rat over the edge. I’ve only got 3 and a hauf mulyin lef so get the finger oot and mail me for a hun killing doo dah, Its got to be better than what you currently have.

     

    I usually have my phone on silent at work; but that all changed yesterday with ZTP filling the air every so often. To increase the wind-up I set a few alarms throughout the day with ZTP as the alarm tone just to make sure they got a regular dose. Pretended to take it all in good fume but were seething underneath!

  18. Damn, Petec, I was hoping you’d post your one word ‘Yeshua’ after my post about Cruyff!

     

     

    Just so that I could reply “I’m absolutely positive”.

  19. Good morning friends and a Big Happy FRiday from a dry, bright, was-clear-but-clouds-rolling-in-at-some-pace East Kilbride.

     

     

    A sneaky wee day’s annual leave for Jobo with only 2 chores on my list (“clean that oven” beibg the worst!).

    It’s hardly selective. It’s about 50% of your post,and from the first word quoted to the last,exactly what you wrote.

     

     

    Stop snivelling. Either defend your nonsense or refrain.

     

     

    Btw,you say you will continue to post because you are abiding by the host’s rules-you must be,otherwise he would have blocked you.

     

     

    Ever think you’re just taking advantage of his good nature?

    I’m joooost thinking of the mass confusion at The Hootenanny when someone’s phone goes!

  23. Video Celts blog again confirming what the more fair-minded of us always knew with their piece on Peter Lawwell after the CL draw.

     

     

    “Everything that comes in goes out again”

     

     

    He categorically states that the CL money will be spent on the football team – of course anyone who has the ability to read the annual report will know this already – there are no reserves and/or slush funds laying around at CP.

     

     

    I believe he was being cautious when saying on the BBC the other night that “we are looking to bring in another one” – I’m sure a deal has been done and would not be surprised if we get two or three.
