Many moons from now a poster will direct a fellow poster to
results in Europe via CQN light sabre speed and the said result will show
Celts 1.Elfs 0

Looks good eh?
Re selling our best players.
Anyone think we should have turned down the VW money?
Anyone think Hooper was making any effort for us lately?
Neg2 @ 21.03.
I think we will go “Intercontinental” and pay out a special dividend.
Not sure about the cash position of the Irish Raj, but every little helps.
Right, for the next CL qualifier I want to see 2 new experienced centre backs, one tall experienced left back, a quality attacking midfielder and a striker.
There, that’ll sort it!
C’MON THE CELTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Right, who do we want in the next round ?
I’ve just had a text fae PL…..big signing
the morra……..told me no tae post it on
that CQN…….so I’m not going to.
Get Finnbogasson signed up along with a quality centre half and we can beat any of those potential final qualifying round opponents

Pedro,
Neil said in is post match interview that the surface is the latest version!
It’s not the future for me!
P
Everything stuck with Bangura, he was what we needed to feed the wide players tonight.
Can’t make my mind up if it was that he was good, or that Ambrose was custard!
He was bullied out of it.
There was hee haw between him and broonie btw, prob happens in training all the time.
Jeez I ave done hell of a lot worse to my bro at five a side!
Any way in the past we would have lost those games, so the tide is in our way
Hail hail

It’s a good job Elfsborg were shoite or we’d be out. We beat better teams ,more convincingly in the qualifiers last season, which shows you that we have gone backwards.
Need to build some quality into the side before the next round.
TBB
Just read back on your bhoy,well done son.
Looks and brains … your mum must be awesome.
The first leg of the play-off round is 20/21 August.
Second leg 27/28 August.
HH!!
Bangura was good tonight.
Clearly when the ball is lumped forward – with back to goal he can just about outmuscle anyone.
In his time with Celtic we never played that way – and I don’t think anyone wants us to.

He also text me and told me you talk a load of old shoite …. Hahahaha
Lustig was quite pleased about winning, eh…..LOL
If the focus is on new signings now..
Then unfortunately Kelvin is going to be difficult to replace – history has proven this to us, the defence has been the most difficult thing to settle in recent years, and in particular, the centre backs.
There is an argument now we’ve come through tonight for investing properly in a proven CH player – we’re not in a position to try and blood a youngster again over the next year. We should be investing the £2.5M from KW’s sale and doubling that to make sure we have someone that is well experienced and will settle in more quickly.
Celtic’s potential opponents in the Play-off Round are Austria Vienna, Maribor, Ludogorets Razgrad, Shakhter Karagandy & Legia Warsaw/Molde.
Do not want Shakhter Karagandy as surprise package of qualifiers so far.
Neil’s comments that his two centre halves were outstanding has got to be to keep the pressure off them, they were bullied all night by Bangura, Izzy dreams wants an extra touch and has no pace,but we are through hopefully get something near a full team out for the next two CL games, and please if we do not have a goalscorer sign one not someone who wants to go wide like GS and AS
ps
I’d love to see Barcelona play Elfsborg on that pitch.
Maybe they are good enough to tiki-taki on any surface – or maybe they’d get humped.
What, no negatonians on tonight ….Hehe
Lets comment on the new signings at the end of August
Appalling performance against a pub team miles away from CL standard.
The positivity of some on here is in stark contrast to other Celtic forums.
The quality which helped elevate our team last season is currently in Southampton and Norwich. Our willingness to cash in jeopardised our path through this tie and continues to risk our CL participation.
Time we belatedly prepared for this season.
Away onto rm to see if they have congratulated us…… LOL
PF / benjy
Celtic bit the hand off NF the 2.5m for KW and we need a much better player than him, – he’s a Bosman and we like it when we get monet back on them.
No attempt to replace Wanyama *Impossible says NL* Hooper not replaced, and we won’t spend until after the draw, and even then remember we’re conditioned to expect that Celtic can spend only £2m max.
We prefer to self destruct and are busy splitting up the support in section 111.
Half decent Euro team would beat Celtic, miracle that Elfsborg didn’t get a break from Ambrose Wilson or Izzy.

…..away back to ff
At least we do not blame the wind or Peter Lawwell mouthing off…
In qualifying the performance is not the thing! Playing a team well into their season on an artificial pitch.
Celtic did what they had to do.
If Kelvin wants to go back to England, good luck. We’re not Parisbuns!!

I rather do the mathS (plural).
I think we should be holding onto Kelvin Wilson until after the next qualifier is decided. What difference does another couple of weeks really make to him or Forest? We’ll be playing a crucial match with a relatively untested centre back pairing if we let him go. He didn’t have a particularly great game tonight but he’s been excellent in several European games for us.
The pitch was horrific tonight and that has to be taken into account.
Delighted we’re through and that we’ve got guaranteed European football until Christmas. Based on that performance tonight, the Europa league is probably our level but there’s still time to sort ourselves out with a couple of new players. Over to the board – time to spend some of the many millions earned from Europe and transfers in the last year.
Calum McGregor scores for Notts County
Good luck to Callum McGregor with his loan move at Notts County.
What is the deal with Balde?
So can we get back to transfer speculation tomorrow.
A striker and a midfielder (attacking) please.
I think tonight confirms that at present we have a weaker team than last season- the injured players might make a difference- but we still need new faces

Poor man’s Bangura!! ;-)
67heaven,
Boring – your comment does this site a disservice. As a poster since the inception of this site, who has praised when due on regular occasion, you remind me why many similar to me have stopped posting.
Well we’re through. Terrible performance, a team we should beat with relative ease became a real struggle. What good is champions league riches if we don’t invest in the team?. I fear we are becoming the huns of old, we don’t identify the problems in our team we are just happy being better than them.
HailHail
Evening all,
Worst nil nil ever but we’re through. Pitch was awful, as BRTH said the other day let NFL and his team get on with managing the squad. They must have been aware for a long time of KW desire to leave. No point in having unhappy players.
Onwards and upwards Celtic. Keep the faith and we shall prevail.HAIL HAIL PB1888
