  1. If the result is ALL that matters then obviously job done.

     

     

    But the performance was embarrassing.

     

     

    Surface was a factor but poor passing, poor control.

     

     

    OL Bangura on the other hand had excellent control and

     

    decent passing. :))

  2. This was not another Braga or Utrecht only because they were just so bad.

     

    We came across as a set of SPL / flat-track bullies.

     

    Crap outside our own post code.

     

     

    Shameful.

     

    Shameful regarding the performance.

     

    Shameful at the state of the team and the quality we have lost.

  3. Well, that’s the champions of Sweden oot.

     

    One less team of champions that can face us in next round.

    Imagine trying telephone banking on a mobile while wearing boxing gloves. You’ve just imagined how many wrong options Forrest made tonight.

    I’m with you on that.Couple of nervous clearances, but some decent tackling.

     

    The pitch was a factor, but when did we last pass as badly as that ?

  6. Oh my life. We were do poor even allowing for the pitch. Mark McGhee thought Izzy was composed in the 2nd half. You were watching a different game from me. And big Ambrose was rag-dolled by Bangura for 90 mins. Got out of jail on this occasion.

  7. Heart worked overtime for the last hour. We got lucky tonight in that the team we were playing couldn’t take advantage of what was a dreadful performance. Ball retention no existent. As John Hartson has pointed out, the pitch didn’t help. Anyway, we’re through. Fingers crossed for a kind draw on Friday.

  8. Hoop hoop Hooray on

    We were mince. Thank ghod we were playing mutton. However we wont be as bad again. We are through. All that matters.

    Did you see at at the end of the game, that’s what I like to see from Celtic Players…

     

     

    Best defender at the club, him and Matthews..

    Correct….cool heads….but not mine .. Hahaha…… Stupid pitch

  12. not one player out there willing to take responsibility on the ball – low in confidence attributed to the sticky unpredictable surface (a big factor). We need a midfielder who wants the ball in any situation. We also need a striker who can hold the ball up and get us goals (stating the obvious but pointing out weaknesses tonight)

     

     

    JF needs more composure instead of running without thinking – one dimensional and needs a lesson in guile.

     

     

    not a single positive other than the most important one – we are through, thankfully.

  13. that was bloody torture

     

    poor performance all round

     

    but another great result in europe ;-)))))

     

    euro football now till december beckons

     

    hopefully the draw for the next game is kind

     

    and the bhoys and the club can show we deserve to be playing

     

    with the top teams in europe

    From twitter

     

     

    Celtic’s potential opponents in the Play-off Round are Austria Vienna, Maribor, Ludogorets Razgrad, Shakhter Karagandy & Legia Warsaw/Molde.

  15. Jings we got away with that ok, what a poor game and performance although it is ridiculous that we have to play qualifiers so early in the season.

     

     

    Champions of your country, winners of the trophy and last 16’s in the previous year, why are we playing qualifiers, answer we don’t come from one of the “chosen” countries.

  16. Changed days. An awful European away performance and we still qualified. Too many players well under par, a couple dreadful. Lustig MOTM.

  17. pedrocaravanachio67 on

    A light insanity

     

     

    Pitch isnae 3G, the Clifftonville pitch was 3G…… Big big difference.

  18. Brilliant. Result, not the performance. Everybody, off-day. Including Lenny – Sammi off thus negaying the high out-ball and inviting enofmous pressure last 20? C’mon Lenny!

     

     

    Anyway, before all you negative see you next tuesdays spout your venom, just rember it’s ALL about getting there right now. And we’ve only two stops to make.

  19. Understatement of the year;

     

     

    “We could have passed a bit better”

    “Our back four were magnificent”

     

    WTF??? Apart from Izzy, Efe and KW???

     

     

    Hopefully NFL saying something else behind closed doors

  20. Friday draw mate. Maribor, bulgarian
