Disproportionate load ahead of Tannadice cup tie

234

Dundee United lost their first game back after the winter break; the seven games since have seen them lose only once, and that was to the last gasp Liel Abada winner at Celtic Park.  The defensive qualities they showed that day have been evidenced since, as they have not conceded in the four games that followed.

There is a lot of football to be played in the three weeks before we face them at Tannadice in the quarter finals of the Scottish Cup, Celtic have at least six games, United have a maximum of four, a heavy load for the visitors.  If Celtic overcome Bodo/Glimt in the conference league, they will have a last 16 tie on the Thursday before visiting Tannadice on the Sunday.

Despite our comfortable win there earlier in the season, the disproportionate load facing the teams, will make this a difficult cup tie.

  1. When the Celtic Ghirls football team are allowed into the SPFL surely they will be allowed to play there matches either up at Lennoxtown or Barrowfield and not Penny Cars Stadium in Airdrie ,just a thought why are they playing there home games there.?

    “Kev” living rent free in yet another heid??

     

    I’m guessing, but, this “Kev” is starting to sound like a one man Shaolin Temple!!

     

    I’m impressed. 👍

    It sadly looks like “Kev” has full digs in your napper.

     

    What a shame.

     

    Keep well 👍

    Watched the Sporting v City game. Enjoyable game but City in truth won handsomely in second gear.

     

    My point was that despite dominating possession they conceded far more goals than Spirting. Remind anyone of another game at another place.

     

    Btw some of the Sporting fouls , including those not given, were straight reds. I have no allegiance to City although Colin Bell is one of my favourite all time players.

     

    Hail Hail

     

    Stay Safe

  8. I think Celtic Women’s team and all other women’s club teams will be expecting to play home games at their respective club’s home ground, e.g. Celtic Park. The Scotland women’s international team have just won the right to play at Hampden.

     

     

    The push for equality will accept no less. The tide has turned and will not be stopping – there will be plenty more changes to come.

  9. Talking today to recent arrivals at work mainly English footie fans. They are still laudative about the recent Celtic v ” Rangers ” game.

     

    Some comments :

     

    A breath of fresh air with total entertainment.

     

    I love football played like that.

     

    Who is your manager, how did you find him.

     

    Love your pre match lightshow , pity sky spent so much time listing the teams when there was so much going on.

     

     

    But unanimously they all commented on the atmosphere. Some said they had never witnessed such an atmosphere at a televised game. They were absolutely blown away.

     

     

    Not one person mentioned the absence of huns, to be honest I don’t even think they were aware there were no huns in Paradise.

     

     

    I don’t want them back, we don’t need them.and we dont want them. Positives. :-

     

     

    Segregation issues are removed at a stroke.

     

    Lack of intimidation.

     

    Bigger crowd.

     

    Much easier to police.

     

    Streets outside are safer.

     

    Don’t need to listen to their bigotry.

     

    800 more Celtic fans can watch the game.

     

    Our toilets live to see another day.

     

    We don’t feel the need to stoop to their level.

     

    Safety / crowding issues are easier to address.

     

     

    I can’t think of any negatives and Sky must be happy with the feedback.

     

     

    So tell them to ram their tickets for Grayskull and we will retain the status quo Thank you.

     

     

    We just can’t get enough.

  10. Go tell the Spartim on

    It’s Snake Mountain not Greyskull

     

     

    Read somewhere else calling it

    ——-

     

    A plethora of good points and the majority hard to argue against.

     

     

    Personally, up till now I was in favour of a return to the full 7,500 – but 800/900 why bother. It would appear that argument for ‘home fans only’ is irresistible.

  12. Lo Stadio del Diavalo is too feckin cool for TFOD

     

     

    too latiny.

  13. GREENPINTA @ 10:43

     

    —-

     

    Just a couple of wee things to add to your earlier post.

     

     

    Ibrox started all this and the previous 700/800 was merely token gesture. This 900 is no different.

     

     

    Ibrox likes to control the agenda with token gestures – their refusal to talk to the BBC is a token gesture to placate their fans – the banning of BT pundits, e.g. Neil Lennon from broadcasting at Ibrox is a token gesture to placate their fans – the whole Cinch farce is a token gesture to placate their chairman.

     

     

    We should tell them to stick this latest gesture where the ‘sun don’t shine’. The points you made previously are perfect for a rebuttal of their grudging initiative.

  14. I would have no idea why our club would go along with this ticket farce.No idea why any of our fans would want them back.No idea why we would be letting them set the agenda.

     

    GREENPINTA,has laid out every benefit earlier.The one thing missing is the safety of the Celtic fans attending their Piggery.The scum have plenty of previous.Imagine their rage when we gun them in April.This should be a major concern for our club.

  15. JHB,

     

    Total agreement.They placate their hordes of Bigots with there gestures.I await our clubs response.

  16. Back to Basics - Glass Half Full on

    I’d give them 800 tickets ….

     

     

    … at £1,299 each.

     

     

    £49 of which pays for the ticket admin, the inevitable damage and the camera crew to document the damage.

     

     

    £1,250 to the Celtic Foundation.

     

     

    800 x £1,250. Hhmm.

     

     

    Would they be dumb enough in sufficient numbers to hand over a cool million?

  17. Post away,

     

    Just means the league table seen quicker

     

     

    You’ll be looked after in an independent Scotland.

     

     

    HH

  18. Celtic will tell them to stick it where sky say.

     

    League rules will be applied.

     

    Same club rules apply,

     

     

     

    They did this,we do ,,,,,,aw fook off with the tell them this.that and other,its boring think ancient and a bit

     

     

    Survey season ticket holders and recent ticket purchasers to games,will have

     

    Do you want it back?

    But am not sky,I don’t want the hate.last wed was a truly iconic,attending,the whole granular experience,every second of it.Celtic pushing on

     

     

    I would think new club fans would want same the reasons along with sky promote there hate. Its their identity,well the tupe’d over 1 anyway

    totally off topic. I want to buy some spec frames from the US, will i have to pay Custom duties. vat etc etc to get them here.

     

     

    Anyone know?.

     

     

    Finished speaking to friend in Dallas there,posed your question,his answer

     

     

    : If I buy anything here ship to the UK, the post office holds the item until recipient pays vat taxes….

     

     

    Only way around it is when travelling back to UK wear them…. They rarely quiz me on my luggage.

     

     

    Hope that helps.

    “Obviously this, “Kev Jungle” didn’t go to the pub with you, in Turkey, I’m guessing??

     

     

     

     

    ….

     

     

     

     

    .KEV didnt go to any GLASGOW Pub with me either…I wonder why ?

     

     

     

     

    •••••••••••••••••••••••••

     

     

     

     

    I wouldn’t be so arrogant to assume to know how “Kev” thinks, how would I know what someone is thinking?

     

     

     

     

    But I will guess how he thinks, if its the same “Kev” who seems to be causing lots of sleepless nights on here??

     

     

     

     

    I guess that “Kev” probably thought it would be a bad idea to go to a pub were a group of anti “Kev” folk were drinking, then the group would start a fight with “Kev”, forcing “Kev” to defend himself, which would probably lead to “Kev” kicking all of their asses as I don’t think “Kev” was a drinker?? and “Kev” would get a criminal record for kicking would be assailants asses?? And that wouldn’t be worth “Kev’s” trouble, for positively responding to an invite to a pub to meet a group of anti “Kev” folk.

     

     

     

     

    “Kev” who posted on here was smarter than that, I’d guess??

     

    …………………….

     

    WHO said anything about ” KEV” Meeting a ” GROUP” ?

     

    I certainly did NOT….as I posted that ” Kev has NEVER met ME in a Glasgow Pub either. YOUR RANTINGS stated above….. are ALL IN YOUR HEID…MATE…As Big ANGE would say.

     

    CHUMP !

    that leaves him free to sign for Raith Rovers

    That was VERY NAUGHTY Mate.

     

    LOL.

    You are obviously a THREE Year Old….with a TWO Year Old Brain.

     

    Do you need a ” HELPLINE” Number ?

  23. I wish that Celtic would just tell the Huns to Feck Aff and ram their 800 tickets.

     

    I would die a very happy man IF the Huns were NEVER ALLOWED into Paradise EVER again…this would mean for a GREAT Atmosphere, as was the case on 2nd February.

     

    GREEN PINATA has earlier posted about all the advantages that a ” NO HUNS ALLOWED” Policy would bring.

    ” I wouldn’t be so arrogant to assume to know how “Kev” thinks, how would I know what someone is thinking?”

     

    …….

     

    IF TRUE….Then WHY did YOU work on a ” FANTASY ASSUMPTION”, of what ” Kev” would be thinking or HOW ” Kev” would REACT IF he met a ” GROUP” in a Pub ?

     

    Your HEID is full of ” Wee Motors CRASHING into each other”…
