Deila and Hutter bedding into their new teams

1385

There are parallels between Salzburg and Celtic.  After an outstanding season Salzburg lost their coach, Roger Schmidt, in May to Bayer Leverkusen, appointing Adolf Hutter (commentators beware), who previously managed Austrian Bundesliga club Grodig and is largely unknown outside Austria.

Unlike Ronny Deila, Hutter has not tried to change Salzburg’s system, but the period of transformation has been blamed for Salzburg failing to overcome Malmo in the Champions League play-off round (Malmo taxed Juventus in Turin last night before two second half Tevez goals settled things).  New instructions, new training techniques and, in some cases, new personnel present challenges.

Ronny has had a few false starts but the return of Scott Brown at the weekend, the return to form of Kris Commons, who will surely start, and the addition of Scepovic, Tonev and Wakaso to the squad give reason for confidence.

  1. Kitalba,

     

    I too thought you were still in Oz,

     

    was it yourself that was a regular in the Dolphin or am I mixing you up with someone else

    Would you agree that the Nuremberg rallies were examples of people re engaging in the political system?

     

     

    Ahhh, Reductio ad Hitlerum. Ernie uses the ultimate irrelevant fallacy. All this, purely, to distract, derail the argument and anger the opponent. Yet more ad hominem p!$h

     

     

    You have lost.

    I have that Declaration on the wall of my house.

     

     

    On another note… I’d be interested as to how many others have it hanging in theirs. I know it is easy to lie on a blog but you’re only lying to yourself.

  4. MWD I have no idea – I didnt ask.

     

     

    I refer you to my previous post. Seems that any information is to be ignored.

  5. See if you are voting Yes, just accept that Scottish politicians are no different to any other politicians; narcissistic and arrogant. They too are just as susceptible to being lackies to big business.

     

     

    See if you are voting No, just accept that you endorsing the current shower of turds that run Great Britain for the benefit of South East England and you will never break their stranglehold.

     

     

     

    DOOOOOMMMMMMEEDDDD!

    I’ll be knocking down the doors of the ole KSC to make sure they are open fir the game tonight.

     

     

     

    not sure if being a nazi I should support Salzburg though…

  7. Jonnythetim won’t be happy when he looks out his window, an orange-utan next door to me, has a union fleg hanging out of his window facing jt’s house.

     

     

    Cast my vote after the nightshift at eight, in and out in two minutes, no yes or no supporters at the entrance!

     

     

    A bit surprised at that…anyways, it was a yes from me.

     

     

    Keep it nice bhoys.

     

     

    Hopefully a good result tonight for the hoops.

    Every person in the world uses their contacts for benifit at one time or another, why do you particularly highlight Tony Blair?

     

    ————————————————————-

     

    Kit,

     

     

    I thought that would be obvious.

     

     

    He didn’t start off as a business man.

     

     

    He was elected Prime Minister of Great Britain in 1997 leading the socialist Labour party. Or “New Labour” as he called it.

     

    Ernie’s party I believe.

     

     

    I want to know what Ernie’s views on the fact that this (ex?) socialist used his elected position to make contacts which would later make him a personal fortune.

     

     

    I want to know Ernie’s views because he is on this website proposing that we should continue to vote for people like Tony Blair.

    That irony bypass op must have taken…………..r we not still tims 2 morrow?

     

     

    ure prediction for the game is ……

     

     

    Hail Hail

  13. MWD you posted this:

     

     

    next time you contact any of the authorities could you ask for a balanced view including all religions employed by said authorities?

     

     

    So why wouldnt you be interested in the figures that show that police scotland has a less than representative population of catholic employees? As I said its not meant to influence anyone in the referendum (and wouldnt anyway).

     

     

    Why would I want to know about all religions – I was only trying to prove a hunch to myself.

     

     

    In itself its just information – but man some people here seem agitated by it.

  14. Electioneering should be finished, lets get back to supporting Celtic.

     

     

    Even if that support takes the form of depressive and continuous criticism.

    Andy is maybe still on Judies council tax bill, she won’t get her 25% single persons discount then..

    Am I ever!

     

     

    No kiddie football prior to it so will hit the auld CQN corner in good time, metaphorically speaking mind!

     

     

    HH jamesgang

  17. ghordybhoy – with respect – I think that your Peterborough analogy is a weak one. there is a lot more at stake here. Similarly one poster calling no voters cretins is just one poster. But lets face it. Its much much more than one poster. Its a whole campaign.

    Was referring to myself – not the t shirt – although the resonating is a tad less fervent !

  21. Neganon

     

     

    Unlike you, I am interseted in the overall view to provide balance to the argument.

     

     

    you are interested in a little piece to attempt to sway a Catholic fvote on the day of a referendum.

     

     

    Can you tell me how many presbytarian police officers there are by % to the % of Scots who say they are Presbytarian.

     

     

    Can yoy tell me how many Jewish police officers there are by % to the % of Scots who say thet are jewish.

     

     

    Same for Hindu, Sheik, Muslim and all religions or none.

     

     

    Once you provide me that balance I can then determine if there is in fact descrimination towards Catholics within Police Scotland.

     

     

    Can I ask if you have ever brought this topic of conversation up before today? Or is it jsut another FEAR tactic on a Celtic blog as you assume, most likeluy correctly, in the main most are of Catholic persuasion.

    “tonights game holds absolutely no interest for me.”

     

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

     

     

    Are you kidding?

     

     

    Why do you spend (waste) so much time and energy on CQN if you have no interest in a Celtic game?

    Did I think that was a good post? Yes.

     

     

    Did I think it was funny? Yes.

     

     

    Am I going to steal it? Probably.
