Dedryck strolls past England

1089

Hot on the heels of a former Celtic player becoming the most expensive defender in transfer history, we watched Dedryck Boyata stroll through Belgium’s win against England last night.  I would be more animated on this subject if he was secured on a five year contract, but as he his current deal only has one year to go, such a high profile performance could reduce our options for the player.

How many of you thought we would be in this situation after the Ibrox game in March?  That day Brendan Rodgers said there was better to come from Dedryck.  He is still not the finished article, but he’s a key cog in a team who fancy their chances in Russia.

Stiliyan Petrov match worn Champions League shirt raffle

We have a very special raffle, which ends this afternoon! The shirt Stiliyan Petrov wore in Celtic’s 0-0 draw with Bayern Munich during our 2003 Champions League campaign is available. You can buy a ticket for £1 here on ebay.  Stan signed the shirt.

All proceeds go to the Stiliyan Petrov Foundation to aid research into leukaemia and cancer treatments.  Stiliyan’s recover from leukaemia shows us just how far treatments have come, but as our own CQN community knows too well, more progress is needed.  The draw will be made at Woodside Hotel, Aberdour, where the 14th annual CQN Open Golf Day is now underway.

Hope to see you later.

    Wow, Scott McDonald is now the go-to expert on Celtic.

     

     

    He was saying yesterday he’s not sure what his next career move will be. Given the crap he was spouting about Celtic I reckon he’s looking for job in the SMSM.

    Still in the wee beach bar-

     

     

    “You just knew how that was going to end.Over 1000 passes going nowhere and when it Came to hitting the ball forward two of them couldn’t do it.”

    Typical of the English football punditry to think if over the hill “big” teams get knocked out “we” will have a better chance of winning it:))

    While the focus has been on Russian interference in the US election, Recent disclosure shows the large influence Putin had on the brexit vote … lots about Aaron Banks and his dealings that has been suspected, but is only now starting to trickle out

     

     

    But, ticatac is all fine, but they still need (1) to get the ball forward quicker, and (2) a villa style poacher to translate the possession into goals

  13. Sergio Ramos telling Big Peter,”Call me”during his celebrations for Spain goal.

     

    You heard it here first.

  14. Garry,

     

     

    If England play 3atb I reckon you are right.

     

     

    Columbia look like dudes that njoi playing for their Country.

     

     

    England are going to be seriously tested in this game.

  15. Russia really is an amazing country, when one considers the unimaginable horrors that were inflicted on her people by the Communists.

     

     

    They have soundly defeated the ideology.

     

     

    HH. ?

    *Was talking to one of my grandsons about the prospect of Russia winning the WC, his response was that even as bent as FIFA is no chance as Russia aren’t that good. I then said “son I’m half a century older than you and if Vlad the Bad can run the West Wing, winning the WC will be a breeze”.

     

     

    BTW NATO is on its way out as well.
