Centenary Season feelings
Ye canny beat an injury time winner
SFTB @ 2.56
JF was just trying to get away from the ball / hide his shame after that wasteful pass.
Unfortunately for him OE say his movement and gave him something to do.
The cutback was the easier /lazier thing to do and the rest as they say is history.
Big thank you to TW taking out their defender on the line.
Karma as they say is a bitch.
The DFC defender took TW out when the JF pass was on.
TW took the hit and just kept going taking the defender with him.
Cue a slight gap in the DFC “Park the bus” formation.

“It might have taken him 96 minutes and 5 seconds but at least he provides one good bit of play.”
Did you miss the set piece move from the corner?
Did you miss his battling to set up Scott Sinclair for a good chance that forced a save?
I know JF was nowhere near top form today but I also know when people are not letting the facts get in the way of a good theory.
Dire & dreadfully disappointing, that is CQN I’m talking about. Some of the comments during 2nd half were appalling.
Now having said that, the game was dreadful, it certainly was a bad advertisment for the Scottish game but we have all seen that script many times, opposition put 10 behind the ball and we can’t break them down.
Whilst James & Eddy didn’t play well they both did brilliantly for goal.
As for the comments re Lenny’s long term future, why go there now, we have hopefully 10 games left to play. So let’s play them first & then look at next season.
If we go on and win the Treble how difficult would it be to give the managers job to anyone other than Neil Lennon?
If you’re not dancing’ round your room right now and celebrating then there is nothing Celtic can do for you….ever…
And I mean that most sincerely folks:)))
Thanks Bobby Madhun:)))
The Unseen Hand has eventually subdued you:)))
ROTFFL

You really should step away from the crack pipe at this point.
That was hard going, was it not? Whilst I understand the plight of Dungdee, i cannot abide anti football, how the hell is that going to attract new fans to a game I wonder. Great result , but I wish we would run at defences more instead of trying to pass through them all the time. How’s about a tanner ba’ player.
Anyway, not grumbling , 10 points clear.
KINGLubO
SFTB- Agree, Neil doesn’t want to interfere with the play the guys had under BR,and is being careful not to impose his style of play just now.
MadMitch
Way out of line with your comments about James IMHO…
SFTB @ 3.04
JF @ Corner — Harlem Globetrotters / circus move.
JF @ ScS chance — DFC player was sleeping.
JF regressed terribly in the past few months.
Back to his PP worst — the boy who doesn’t want to grow up.
SFTB@2-45
I have often suspected that you are a Celtic employee and the above KT post has increased this.
You come across like a mssm member who tries to inflate sevco players value.
KT was a non event today.
The game saving tackle was with two other Celtic players at the same time.
He missed quite a few all day in a defense that was unsure.
The attacking side of his game is non existent at the moment and the once decisive tackler has been replaced by a hesitant guy.
There is a brilliant player in there but something does not seem right in his recent performances.
Doc- correct
This, Lurkintim, exactly.
…And as for the extra time…that’s what happens when yer team deliberately, constantly, fake injuries to slow the game down…
Better late than never! Ye Olde blood pressure came down by 30 points I bet at 96 minutes!
Far from our best game but ten points clear, we’ll take that!
Happy St Patrick’s day to all in timdom!
Bada Bing, I hope that gets maximum exposure on Social Media, we know we won’t see it on the news.
STARRY PLOUGH
Nae dancing but a jumped on top of my computer plug and it flipping hurt:-))
Today = great result.
However our performance was shocking.
Too much of today’s performance was left on the track at Cheltenham.
We were poorly set up.
We had no on-field spark or leadership.
We wasted our substitutions and lost any shape we had.
Consequently great 3 points but shocking performance.
Difficult 3 points today but play to the final whistle and you’ll get your just rewards need to get Tom & Ryan back to give us more variety in the middle.
Watching the Fulham/ Liverpool game. Fulham Mr Babel gives a whole new meaning to ” the red heided guy”
Happy Still Patrick s Day & HH
Just a reminder to all the cloud dancers….
We next play the Newco Neds & Divers.
If we play like we did today…..
Doesn’t bear thinking about…
A 1-0 when you have battered the opposition & played well is one thing..
A 1-0 when you couldn’t string 3 passes together & lloked like you’d never met your team mates before is another..
Cheers Bognorbhoy – Mind the gap…
BADA BING
it looked to me like Neil did impose his style as there was sign of cohesive or thoughtful tactics today.
I have said before he always had teams that were difficult to beat who relied on our better players producing class moments for victory.
Like today for example.

Your suspicions are on a par with your football analysis. You cannot just dismiss observations you don’t like by inventing reasons as to why those observations exist. It is a deeply unconvincing rhetorical trick.
KT has been under par with the team since his return from injury. Today he produced a performance well above that which was the norm from his team mates.
BTW- KT will be sold. At what stage, I have no idea but it will be a sad loss to Celtic when he does leave.
Enjoy your misery and dissatisfaction with Celtic!
James Forrest won all three points for Celtic and another injury time winner for NFL, the great Celt who’s gotten the dream managers job twice, in one lifetime.
A poor game of football wasn’t a surprise, at desperate Dundee who will no doubt count themselves as unlucky as a Subway loyalist on St Patrick’s day, but this era for Celtic is truly written in the stars.
Stars like Odsonne Edouard, worth every penny of his £9M fee was kicked, from the kick off and NFL’s lightweight side toiled. With no spare hard men to field, NFL played the players who’ve stood out at Lennoxtown, but he’s not afraid of any reputations in his line up, and shuffles his pack in a manner his predecessor, would not.
Barcelona in Dundee against two banks of five wouldn’t have been pretty, and neither were we, and although MacGregor was back in midfield, we still need a challenge from Rogic, Ntcham, Christie, Bitton and Euan Henderson, to successfully land this treble. Leigh Griffiths would be nice on Cup final day?
So with the midfield bare Celtic clung on to hope and James Forrest ( player of the year?) finally broke Dundee hearts with a burst of pace and cutback, which was gobbled up by the Frenchman. Envy, Celtic’s away support who were in the best place on earth, a Celtic Supporters bus en route home from Dundee, a trip made many times through the decades with all three valuable points
When Keiran Tierney struggles so will Celtic, and NFL’s wiley move to switch him inside, left the much harder wing back role for Jonny Hayes to fill and cover up for Keiran, who strolled it at Centre Back.
NFL used all of his subs we didn’t play well, but he’s arguably made the best decisions he’ll ever make by leaving Odsonne Edouard on for the full game, thus collecting six points from Tynecastle and Dens.
M.O.M Callum MacGregor
Saw some shocking comments throughout to day but “Turgid Dross” has to be lowest of the low. We did what champions do today and worked until the final whistle. NL’s substitutions were spot on and the change of formation brought the winner with Scott Brown pushing forward and making the interception leading up to the goal, James Forrest switching wings, playing the initial pass to French Eddy and continuing his run into the box before playing a delightful cut back, Timo muscling the 4th centre half out of the game on the goal line, and Eddy doing what Eddy does with a composed finish.
Couldn’t be happier today – Brilliant start to St Patricks Day.
…meanwhile o’oer oan that……….. clansman.org…………….. Lawwell takes a typewritten batterin’ and oul’ bitter, angry, arrogance is nurtured in the bottom of dead pint glass…….far removed from the water of life that a lung-bustin’, last minute victory from The Celtic gives to us and ours. These are the days bhoys!!!

KL @ 3.07
I thought that was why MJ was put in the team today — run at their defence.
Had a couple of moments in the first half but they clogged him at every opportunity.
He tried but our play was very side to side and he lost confidence.
He got the ball but he was facing his own goal most of the time.
However it was good experience for him and he will learn.
Not been on blog tday…looks like panic again from ‘fans’
If we win remaining three games before the split & sevco win one of their other two we could be 16 pts ahead when they play motherwell.
League could be won before split.
BTW liked lennys celebrations after goal

I agree – 94 minutes of sclaf footie & one minute of composure.
Odsonne the Eddie
Fool Time Whistle
“Just a reminder to all the cloud dancers…”
And in appreciation, I will offer a wee reminder to our gutter dwellers
You have a choice to look up at the stars or stare down into the sewers.
We had more shots at goal and more on target than when we won 5-0 earlier this season

He’s Come on a Tonne
And his name is Odsonne
He’s a Champion with Celtic Already
He scores for fun against the Sevco Huns
It’s our French Eddie
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh !
Repeat
Whenever its Tom whenever it’s Griff
Whenever it’s Lustig or Jamesie
They all take their turns to hammer the Huns
Just Like Eddie
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh !
Repeat
He’s signed for the four
He’s here for the Ten
For the Treble Treble he’s ready
Like Broonie Ntcham
Wee Cal is the man
Just like Eddie !
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh !
Repeat !
The reality is the team selection was poor. The performance collectively and individually was dreadful. The players seems to have lost their confidence and don’t look in a good place mentally. Passing was off and they wanted too many touches on the ball, the first indictor of a confidence issue.
The subs for the second week in a row didn’t make any difference and there were no tactical adjustments. Another late goal papers over the cracks and questions must be asked about why the players were galavanting at Cheltenham during the week as we approach an important run in. Edouard got us out of jail in the nick of time, thankfully.
And THAT is why we are champions.
Luvly jubbly.
:-))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Pretty sure I’ve pulled a hammy, international break can’t come quick enough for this Tim, rest and be thankful:))

Yer number’s up – we feel yer pain!!!!!!!

Ironic that you do this often on here.
SKY version
Turgid performance from Celtic but a great 3 points, love a late winner
it’s a great habit to have, it’s as if you expect too score and your opponents
expect the same.
