If you are missing your competitive football fix you’ll have devoured the fixture list this morning but it’s still over seven weeks until the first league game of the season, when the league flag will fly before we face Ross County (we will have played a Champions League qualifier five weeks from today).
Thereafter, due to the postponement of a home game to allow for a financially lucrative friendly, Celtic are on the road six times in nine league fixtures, so if our away form is anything like it was for much of last season, it’s likely we will be in the mix, instead of clear leaders, come the end of October.
After an absence of some time, Celtic have a local derby to look forward to. They meet Partick Thistle at Firhill on 26th October with the return game at Celtic Park set for New Year’s Day. We are scheduled for two trips to the Capital within a month but don’t go booking your flights for the Hearts game in September, just in case…..
Curious news today that Celtic director and BT chief executive, Ian Livingston, will leave the telecoms company after five years at the top to become Minister for Trade and Investment in the coalition government. Livingston will serve from the House of Lords. How about boosting the ailing Scottish football industry by lobbying for a merger with a neighbouring league?
Have you bought a ticket for Firday night’s Lions Roar event? Join hundreds of Celtic fans and the Lisbon Lions to watch the Lisbon game and for a Q&A afterwards.

Honda on a free this summer?
Doc
If he didn’t go to Napoli they would not have achieved anything near what they did. Even more so for for Argentina in 86. They had a couple of good players but no Diego no World Cup. Pele was immense. Didn’t leave Brasil as he didn’t want to. Didn’t need to. Doesn’t mean his achievements should be down graded because he never played for Milan, Madrid, Man U or Celtic (at the time and why not) His dummy in Mexico past the keeper then shot past was just about perfect. Just a shame we don’t have the same amount of footage of Maradona and Pele as we do Leo. Maybe we should count ourselves lucky to live in a time when he rules.
Hail hail
Buffon might just have saved the day.
the croybhoy
Aye, just great players, all of them.
The best for me. An opinion, for you another.

……………clever…. Very good especially this late hat doffed
Wow great. Chance for japon… Unlucky ,… Cracking game tho
Japan, fantastic football. Still 3-3.
Japan think they are Barca here, great football, ends offside.
How did that stay out?
Doc, don’t think we can argue either way fella. It’s all down to different generations. The game now is a million miles away from the eighties.
It’s hard to compare who is better because of that. Great discussion though.
MHARK67,
Kip calls…hope we still have Vic next season.
G’night :O).
Italy ……classic sucker punch 4-3
Would like to see Japan v Spain. What an open game of football that would be!
Italy in another 4-3 classic!
4-3 for Italy, that’s football.
Mental, Japan’s football at times was brilliant.
RIP,
James Gandolfini
Found dead in Italy tonight.

That was the hairyiest £10 bet (at 2-0 down) I’ve had in a long time.
