Dunfermline debacle caution ahead of Motherwell

996

Do you remember the game after the Cluj Champions League debacle last August?  Of course you do, you are still chasing the cold from you bones, it was a League Cup encounter with Dunfermline at Celtic Park, where the Championship club took the game to extra time.  The game, the only domestic cup tie in 34 games we have not won in 90 minutes, was six minutes from going to penalties before James Forrest settled things.

I don’t know what happened in the dressing room between Cluj and Dunfermline but I cannot imagine it is a happier workplace this week.  This is Celtic and everything goes on the line every game.  Let’s not have a repeat of the Dunfermline performance.

I know a few Motherwell fans and they are unanimous in their praise of David Turnbull, their star 21-year-old midfielder who joined Celtic on a reported £3m deal yesterday.  Turnbull originally signed for Celtic in June last year, before failing a medical.  A knee operation, and the best part of a year in recuperation, saw him clinch his dream move yesterday.

The question now for the manager is, how does he shape his midfield?  Therein lies the answer to our season.

Welcome to Celtic, David.

  1. According to the daily record headline tonight…’Ryan Kent Dazzles against Hamilton’

     

     

    I seriously hope they never put his castore kit in a hot wash…..it will never last another wear…lol

  2. The fans were of the mindset “we beat the best team in the world” copyright English Press, so we can’t lose against a team no one had really heard of. This was just the beginning of Dutch dominance if you remember. “Total Football”

     

    Already invented by Celtic

  3. See what happens when some well-meaning,( lonely hearts argumentative drunk Tims get taken in by sleekit(s)

     

     

    :)))))))

    “Dad stay away fae the internet” you don’t know who follows you ..

    Remember in Mchuils your neighbour who worked beside my sister was embarrassed with you running about telling everybody you loved them .. that was my first red flag … then when you actually said I “trolled” you just for a reaction … your words ..: as you mentioned my family & the “wee blade” very sad wee man … not good .. and I can assure you ask your neighbour he thinks your a bit of a total Richard as well … but apart fae that I look forward to your first post about Celtic … the football team

  16. Weebaws

    It’s C Q N … Celtic Quick News

     

     

     

    You don’t need to involve Gerry Fae Coatbrig in every single post you both make

     

     

    GFC CSC

     

     

    I look forward to at least one of you giving the blog an insight on today’s game … unless you both just want to post about me ,,,

     

     

    You are both ok at that 🍀

  19. Weebawbabbity

     

     

    You told me in McChuills to my face you tried to get a reaction from me .. And apologised at that time … and still doing the same … what’s changed ?

  20. Do you know what …

     

     

    I have been on the blog a lot in the last 48hrs some really good disagreements but I now think I bring the blog down, whether it’s arguments that go away from the football or the wee snide remarks about my family ….

     

     

    Maybe it’s me that is the problem so Wishaw Tim might be correct and Fairhill Bhoy gets so upset about me posting about Celtic so it’s time for me to leave … this dear green place (Bankiebhoy) … enjoy the journey

    Just to confirm to anybody feeling a bit insulted

     

    when they are asked if they are huns.

     

    It’s been a long standing welcome to this blog and

     

    not to be taken seriously.

     

    Yesterday i had a collective ask to a multitude of

     

    newbies, strange they all seem to appear on a bad

     

    Celtic day.

  24. Good morning from a beautiful sunny North Wales – time to step up and be counted today Bhoys.

  25. Good morning all from a dry but overcast Garngad

    What a read back, wooft..

     

     

    Anyway just win Celtic, get a good win and it gives us a couple of weeks (due to international break) to get a central defender or 2 (if Ajer goes) a left back, and a winger.

     

     

    2 of My preferred options would be Duffy, and Paddy Robert’s and another CB and LB.

     

     

    I really need to get a smart TV for living room for vst as my mate who I normally go to is away for the weekend.. Today I will settle for watching it upstairs.
