Brendan Rodgers would be happy to have given pretty much his entire first team squad a run-out yesterday. I’d expect a similar usage of the squad in Ljubljana on Wednesday but Saturday’s game against Maribor.
There’s seldom anything more than fitness to take from these games but when a young player scored what proves to be a winner, it’s likely to matter more. Ryan Christie looked stressed at the end of last season when five Celtic players scored before he – when playing as striker – got on the scoresheet. Yesterday’s win against Sturm Graz will count for Ryan.
So Bayer Leverkusen are after Efe Ambrose. Not surprised at that one. Surprise isn’t an appropriate word, not at all. Everyone just look at your shoes, don’t make eye contact, poker faces, please.

A smashing CQNer sent me a TOFFS version of that a coupla years ago.
It’s a belter. And so is he.
HH to you both.
BMCUW @ 10.29…and she looks better than BSR’s Christine….(only my opinion though)…
Couple of wee points…..
The black strip ?….seriously, who chooses the strips, home and away ?
Celtic don’t play in black.
Well, not until the fans sold they’re souls to Fergus and, then he locked them out of they’re club.
The new home strip is like a Shamrock Rovers wan from the 80’s, 90’s.
Again……who chooses the strips ?
Anyway,……Brendan is making all the right noises – I still think he’ll be a puppet.
Brendan the squirrel seems to have buried the Res12tance-Rebellion…..?
Hmmmmm………?
The died(LOL) huns are tooling up to boot us aff the pitch.
Is Brendan devious enough to fight fire with fire ?…ala Mr Stein ?
Or, will he be booted aff the pitch like our other idealistic leaders of the early 90’s ?
A, Murdo-Burley-Petrov type is needed in the middle of the park….imho.
Broony hisny got the mental-capacity to play for, never mind captain Celtic FC.
If he is so good ?….How many teams have tried to buy him in the almost a decade that he’s been at Celtic Park ?…same goes for, Commons, Muldini ?
Bitton chucked it in the SCSF v’s the huns – shouldny get the hoops to wear again….imho.
Broony & Commons oot….imho.
Shane Duffy ?…..Hmmm….?…he looks like a clumsy Mulgrew….imho.
Kolo Toure ?….Hmmm…?…only if he’s a calm-cool-headed-sweeper type….imho.
Dembele is a shrewd signing – well done to whoever signed him.
Who kowtowed to have the 1st league game away from home to let, the old firm pals have they’re flag day ?
Back-of-the-bus-punchbags-PLC….shame on you!
The sleekit-deceitful-charlatans who run Celtic PLC have taken yer eyes off the ball with they’re panic-stricken recruitment of Brendan the squirrel….hook-line-sinker.
The Jungle would have released the hounds on the PLC-Hierarchy till, Res 12 was over the line.
But, that was then…when the Kelly’s & Whites were sacked.
But, nowadays…the snobs who replaced the Jungle-rebels have been headed off at the pass.
So, so sad.
Back next week……mibbee…..?
You’ll Never Walk Alone…..in the Jungle.

I sat opposite her a few weeks ago on the Tube in unglamorous NW London. She was with one of her daughters and daughters’ pal I think and they were very nice kids. Reflected well on her I thought (I wasn’t a fan before)
TOSB,
Don’t worry my friend, I just laugh now but it did stir me up a bit at the time, you know that there nothing quite as bad as being thought of as coming from the dark side!!

Handling Efe correctly could give us a new highly successful badly needed defender, most likely right back, but if he improves aerial judgement and heading ability, centre back also. Only my opinion.
==================================================================
How many of our previously proven achievers lost form under Ronny ?
Does anyone have any idea what caused that ?
Big Efe…you’ve got to love the big man…no, really! Heart and soul man…

It’s not only your opinion,old bean. I had to wade through over 1500 photos to find that,the things I do to cheer people up on a Monday.
No need to thank me,of course-it was a pleasure!
Btw,I fully understood your point yesterday,though my reply read slightly different from my intent. Which was that for all the globalisation,”shrinking” of the world,etc,it seems to have had the opposite effect in terms of shock at terrible loss of life.
We are,I hope,still horrified by the things that human beings can do to each other. Or the damage that nature can inflict. It’s the regularity of it that has reduced comment. We have lost our capacity to be shocked by mass slaughter. As predicted by Stalin.
And that,sad as it is,is where terror has won.
Nigel Farage, opponent of political & media elites, must really be hating this lunch.

As a purely football strip, I never liked the all green outfit.
However, this was based on how difficult it was to view the players at night matches, against the dark backdrop of the crowd.
All black strips exacerbate this problem and, as we all know, finding a Celtic player with a pass has been difficult enough at times.
I player should be able to locate a team mate through his peripheral vision.
Dark strips inhibit this ability, in my view.
I think some guys thumbs up or down some tops based on how they think they themselves will look for what passes as their catwalk.

The leaders of yer wee revolution are sinking into a pit of ignominy and oblivion.
Careers finished,and deservedly so.
They played wi politics,lied through their teeth and the only pity is that they were found out too late.
Their self-interested deceit has back-fired on them,and may they have a long period of anonymity to reflect upon the damage they have done.
TTT
Some of us wouldn’t wear the Hoops ( never mind the new all black number )
Football strips are for footballers, and children not proper grown (out grown?) men.
The latest creation is to make money for NB and Celtic, probably in that order.
TOSB –
I haven’t used CelticTV since I returned from Oz 2 years ago, and at that time, you couldn’t view it on an iPad. Very remiss of me to assume that was still the case. Apologies.

Well,to be fair,you can hardly call The Hoooops a fashion statement.
In any colours,btw.
But…
I got a mail yesterday from my bestie,posts occasionally here as MAFFO. He’s over in Kos wi the better half. Bumped into a big fella wearing The Hoooops,a quick Hail Hail and pal for life.
When you see our iconic jersey,it’s almost certainly The Hoooops.
When a Liverpool fan sees all-red,he wonders whether it’s a fellow Kopite,a Manc,or a bliddy Swindonian,etc.
Hoops every time. No question.
Excuse for Brexit……big boys did it and ran away.
Britain, mainly England, was infested by 17m lemmings, who followed their leaders off the cliff, with absolutely no idea where they were going to land. Absolute madness.

You`re far too smart to believe that.

Out to pasture in adjacent fields ruminating over their respective might have beens ?
Those were the days my friend ?
Oh,yeah?
Oh, yeah ?
In a sort of Neil Kinnocky accent.
You do respect democracy Bobby.
You shouldn`t crap on those who insisted on it.
Or those who voted for it.

I’ll pass on yer kind comments to the fragrant one.
(I’ll text her on Friday night,don’t want her thinking I’m stalking her!)
Re Fox,said last week that the Tories don’t reward treachery,and as I can’t see them having a shortlist of two women,it will be May v Fox. And that Fox has spent the last few years glad-handing and pressing the flesh.
(Last phrase has no intended connection for the reason behind his dismissal from Cabinet,honest!)

CTV definitely works on the iPad, I signed up for £40 about a week ago and have watched both friendlies, I’m UK based, I might have went for the £80 HD version but my broadband signal isn’t the best and didn’t think it would carry it.
I don’t comment of politics but it’s pretty clear the Brexit vote
has backfired spectacularly on the voters.

BMCUW –
In the wake of the EU referendum, you and I were in agreement that, while we were both disappointed in the outcome, we could not agree with a second EU referendum solely on the basis that we don’t like the result of the first.
I have since changed my mind.
From what I have been seeing, reading and hearing in the last week, I firmly believe that the LEAVE campaign was based on misinformation and, in some cases, downright lies and deception.
The fact that Johnston and Farage have run for the hills simply confirms to me that the British people were duped, tricked, lied to, conned, whatever you want to call it.
I don’t expect Britain to activate Article 50 and that will be fine, but if they do, I hope it is stopped on points of law. If that means another referendum, great.
But from where I stand now, I believe the referendum result should be declared null and void.

Interesting observation.
I recall a woman police sergeant (an acquaintance) telling me that the drunken female yoof were now much more of a problem than the male, due to ladette culture, a phenomenon she attributed largely to the lady in question.
BMCUW @ 11.05…I understood your point yesterday. I once lived in a violent city where gunfire and was an everyday occurrence. The sound used to send chills through my bones. Alas, after ten years I was more likely trying to identify the kind of weapon being fired…Sad…

You probably paid as much attention to the referendum here as you did to the General Election on Saturday.
The one in your own country.
We all know that politicians lie,it’s almost part of the job description. I don’t have a problem with the shameless nature of that. They lie to gain power,so what?
It’s the running away from the clusterfuck entirely of their own creation which pisses me off.
We are seeing the damage daily already,the pound collapsing,investment plans put on hold,The City looking at alternative locations.
Now,that jumped-up wee arse Osborne announces a plan to reduce Corporation Tax to 15% or less? As a sign that “we are open for business”,no less.
Ffs,we might as well vote in United Fruit as our government.

But you guys ,from your superior intellect ,know better and are able to mentor them to a satisfactory conclusion
And its only coincidental that it`s the conclusion you prefer.

Can I just mention that three of the five candidates for the Tory Party leadership are Scottish.

1. Migration to the UK from the EU will be halted.
2. There will be an additional £300m spent on the health service every week.
3. UK nationals living in the EU will be unaffected by Brexit as their position is protected by the Vienna Convention.
Poor form to ridicule a player who has given his all to Celtic.
By all means we can rate or not players but no need for A’body humiliation.
I don’t rate Efe but I think he’s an easy target.
I’d like to see a lead post that tackles a difficult target… A critique of our CEO would be interesting reading for instance. More challenging than laying gloves on an easy target.
