Exhilaration lands on hard plastic Rugby Park

333

All of that exhilarating football from Tuesday lands on the hard plastic surface of Rugby Park on Sunday, as Celtic return to the ground which last year cost Brendan Rodgers his 100% trophy record in Scotland, then resulted in an even worse performance and defeat in the league.

This will be Kilmarnock’s first home game since their hilarious win over Newco.  Their three games on the road since then resulted in a win at Tynecastle, and defeats to Ross County and Dundee.

They have not lost at home since August, when St Johnstone thumped them 0-3 as Derek McInnes rested several players before their Conference League trip to Norway.  That record will be tested by the flowing fabulousness of the champions.

For Brendan, this will be a rare occasion when he has a full squad to choose from and no game to worry about for two weeks.  He may choose to leave Cameron Carter-Vickers’ knees on the bench, but otherwise, I expect a full strength team to start, and get the game won early on.

  5. Logged on after a 2 month CQN hiatus, possibly not the best example but hopefully last night’s read was not representative of what this site has become. I realise that a good blog is only good when the contributors….well, contribute, and I realise the irony in sharing an opinion after staying away for many weeks, but after reading back, what’s the point? Two guys who are definitely old enough to know better hogging the blog, acting like weans in a playground, railing back and forth aimlessly, each determined that cheap point-scoring was more important than debating the nuances of their respective viewpoint, content to ignore the inconvenient independent reporting of both sides of events in Amsterdam. It all depends where you go to for your news fix, I suppose…

     

    On reflection, maybe like the rest of you, it’s best to ignore, switch off and let them tire themselves out, then return when it’s clear to talk about Celtic?

    Big Jimmy from previous thread, I don’t have any text messages from you.

    You are a malingering git. Imagine not answering text messages from a 90 year old man. 😐

     

    ………..

     

    Sometimes I may feel like a 90 year old man….but at least Ive kept my BRAD PITT/GEORGE CLOONEY looks !

     

     

    LOL.

     

    HH Mate.

  8. Here as the A-league Sat night game readies to start, they have a ceremony for imminent Remembrance Day.

     

     

    And a solitary bugler.

     

     

    I can’t stop smirking.

     

     

     

    Too-toot too-tehhhh. Paah-puh-paaaaaahhhh !

    Yes …was not quite sure where the blog was heading last night, so think a lot of people probably took your advice.

     

     

    I would just like to reiterate what I said yesterday.

     

     

    The Ajax fans and Amsterdam police are renowned for causing trouble.

     

    This is not a new thing it has been going for years, the Dutch authorities know that..

     

     

    In regards to the political …he said…she said….I just don’t get involved….

  10. Looking forward to the game ramora, watched a bit of the Huns game v them…..the football was dire….

     

     

    Just hope they don’t drag us down to their level…

     

     

    These international breaks/ games dad ma heed in as well 🤪☘️😂

  11. I get my news feeds via X formerly twitter and that’s were the truth can be found not on Sky or Itv or bbc I suggest you try it fellas.

  12. Massive match at a sometimes tricky venue for us down the M77 tomorrow I’m somewhat glad it’s 3pm ko. I’m still from Tuesday and sure the players will be also.

     

     

    Brendan is doing a fantastic job and I’m sure he’ll change a player in am attempt to freshen it up.

     

     

    Scales Paulo Luke & Adam I’m sure will get a good run and help continue our fine form and great run.

     

     

    3.0

     

     

    God bless you all have a good weekend.

    Commented on the Ajax fans and Amsterdam police , having been there twice with family to see Celtic and reading about other football teams visiting the city there always seems to be trouble.

    HLS- I don’t see you posting on Celtic

     

     

    I posted a thread on what happened in A’dam

     

     

    I posted what a female resident of thought..

     

     

    Cqn was declining long before your 2 month sabbatical,look at this week rarely a post after midnight,rarely a blog going over 4 pages.

     

    Not so long ago 4 pages would be up by my mid afternoon teabreak at 3ish.Folk have moved on.

     

    Paul’s change of mind on a few things r12 etc,better whatsapp groups,Paul’s political year, a poor poor choice of mod°,combined with a wide range of multimonikers meant folk went elsewhere.

     

    °when folk where subjected to the same repitition I was and just went elsewhere

     

     

    Clunks didn’t post anything on A’dam he got anal about English,as he does,sentence/paragraph structure,punctuation being favoured cycles of his before going onto fantisizing over who controls a blog,all in his head,all I kept doing was refer him to my post.his manic bite did not work as you can see by the amount of times I referred him to my post

     

     

    Do please post both side of reports from Amsterdam I genuinely want to see that,my thread and the female resident where a counter to msm reporting antisemitic attacks as tho they happened without provocation.

     

     

    On reflection you have the option of scrolling,you had the option of posting your opinion,maybe a set of tunes you like,or something as you say bout Celtic,it would be easier than faux moralising romantically bout a blog long gone and something a post on Celtic would be an easy divert from.

     

     

    Hopefully it won’t be 2 months again

  19. A noisy rabble indeed:

     

     

    “Celtic fans’ roar when Nicolas Kuhn put them ahead in this week’s Champions League showdown was the second-highest noise ever recorded in a sports stadium in Europe, according to German media.

     

     

    And the decibel levels reached were so extreme, that hearing experts warn it could have caused damage to the ears and is likened to the sound of a jackhammer. The Hoops enjoyed one of their best-ever European nights when they came from behind to beat Bundesliga high-fliers RB Leipzig 3-1.

     

     

    And newspaper Leipziger Volkszeitung took decibel readings of the key moments of the evening.

     

    They report that Kuhn’s goal in injury time of the first half saw the noise level reach a staggering 129 decibels – which is described as being at the same levels as a jet taking off.

     

     

    Hearing experts have stated: “129 decibels is an extremely loud level of sound that can cause immediate and permanent damage to the human ear.

     

     

    “It is equivalent to the sound of a jackhammer or a thunderclap, and prolonged exposure can lead to hearing loss.”

     

     

    The current world record is 142.2 decibels reached at Kansas City’s Arrowhead Stadium ten years ago for an American football match against New England Patriots. The European record is 131 decibels set by Galatasaray fans in an Istanbul derby against Fenerbahce in 2011 at their Ali Sami Yen Spor Kompleksi Stadium.

     

     

    An Old Firm cup final at Hampden in 2018 was measured at a peak of 115 decibels. The newspaper listed the extremes of noise recorded at Parkhead with both Kuhn’s goal and the roar that greeted the half time whistle reached 129 decibels. Both Kunh’s first half equaliser and Reo Hatate’s goal to make it 3-1 were registered at 121 decibels.

  20. On noise levels, Cadete’s goal on his debut against Aberdeen is often referenced by those who were there as the loudest ever. I was listening to it on the radio and it was so loud it knocked the broadcast out for a few seconds.

  21. Loudest I’ve ever heard at CP,was when Henrik scored v St Johnstone on title winning day

  22. Back to Basics - Glass Half Full on

    Hairlikespaghetti – good to see you posting.

     

     

    Blog has been great recently.

     

     

    Last night was an outlier.
