Efe and Izzie getting hard time on TV

754

I was slightly miffed at Neil Lennon’s TV comments on Efe Ambrose yesterday, “He can’t cross”, but on reflection, better Neil points out the player’s flaws to the nation than gives him a ringing endorsement.  I’d a similar sentiment after Emilio Izaguirre’s dangerous looking forward step against France, which was never in danger of making contact with an opponent, when an ever-unhelpful commentator assured us Izzie, “has that in his locker”.  Anyone who has watched him for four years will know he doesn’t.

Based purely on what’s been offered up on UK TV, neither player will be attracting an offer, which is good.

Both Honduras and Nigeria have a difficult task ahead if they are to remain in the tournament beyond the group stage.  Fraser Forster’s England also have it all to do.  It’s been great for the three of them to get to the World Cup but the sooner they’re home, uninjured, the better.

    Well the new season cant come quick enough im looking forward to fast attacking football from a very fit Celtic side. I am not really worried if we dont buy anybody just as long as we dont lose any of our top players. H.H.

  5. Shortbread will be busy dusting down some footage to make a montage of John Collins’s goals against the old rangers. Looking forward to the sports news.

    You have to wonder about some so called Celtic fans……character assignation of J Collins…..I wouldn’t mind it but obviously has never spoke or I doubt even met him……..As somebody who has known him for about 35 years…….he will be absolutely bouncing tonight !!!……….

     

     

    I spent a few hours with him before Lyon away game…..I met one of the Monaco players he played with….much to my disgust I can’t remember who it was now!!!……….he was as Celtic daft then as he was when in my mothers house as a nine year old!!

    Ridden by who?

  9. Nor mine – although he is on the bench.

     

     

    Get him off the bench and into the stands I say.

     

     

    Then we’ll see an improvement.

    Absolutely correct.

     

     

    Don’t these people realise that Celtic fans should not criticise anyone when they are appointed to the Club? They should wait until they leave. Then it’s open season.

  11. Not long back and put the game on.

     

     

    Saw a guy with a ‘Fellaini’ type hairstyle. Thought it was him.

     

     

    Now realise it was yer man Witsel.

     

     

    Awright I’ve had a few with some Italians still celebrating the win over England!

     

     

    HH!!

    sandman,

     

    Twas a wee joke.Bobby Murdoch, hootenanny organiser.

     

     

    ============================

     

     

     

    Ha, very good; thought we had an undercover nag pilot on the blog.

  14. Here’s another thing.

     

     

    Two months ago you’re told the management team are being replaced with John Collins and Ronny Deila.

     

     

    Who would have guessed correctly which one was going to be manager?

     

     

    Be honest now.

  15. Much-touted Belgians currently having their very own ‘Scotland, Argentina ’78’.

  16. All those who blame John Collins for doing us out of a million: imo, we should be complaining about UEFA and Monaco. UEFA for pretending that Monaco is a member of the EU and Monaco for going along with the pretence to save their football team paying the appropriate fee.

  17. Fellaini thrown on in the vain hope he’ll sicken baldy Boughera into mistakes with his soulboy afro.

  18. 67Heaven ... I am Neil Lennon ....The angels are with Wee Oscar in Heaven.. Ibrox belongs to the creditors on

    ABSOLUTELY DELIGHTED JOHN COLLINS IS COMING BACK TO CELTIC ….. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  19. Some of the criticism of John Collins on here tonight is well over the top. He was a brilliant player for Celtic and I was gutted when he left the club. I think he will be a good assistant manager. He won a trophy with Hibs. That isn’t easy to do!
