I was concerned about a trip to Estonia after hearing Hearts struggle in their home leg against Estonian opponents last week, so news that Gibraltar’s Lincoln Red Imps beat Flora Tallinn was welcome, although the concern was tempered as news arrived that Hearts were three goals up in the away leg.
The lesson here is that in July, one more week’s training has a huge impact on performance.
Brendan Rodgers will be happy with how training has progressed thus far, but it’s only when players put multiple 90 minutes under their belts that they are ready for competitive action. There’s not necessarily a great deal of work to do to overcome Red Imps (no offence intended), but qualifiers come thick and fast thereafter. Despite beating Slovenian champions Olimpija Ljubljana yesterday, I expect Celtic will be more motivated for Saturday’s game against Maribor.
It gets serious from now onwards.

Jake Bugg time on BBC4. Fitba is shecht.
When will the hun moths invade the pitch to protect their players? Nae malice intended, they were provoked.
Game not getting any better
Umtiti played for Brest.
This game would get soccer stopped.
Watching this in Cancun with Canadians, Belgians, few English few Mericans.
I’m dying to start a quiz or go out and join the water aerobics. This would tear the shirt of you.
Apparently Bristol City have put a bid in for Umtiti.
mullet
soccer !! – you’ve been away too long
I think umtitti could do with a bit of support up front.
Hope putting him on doesn’t turn out to be a big boob.
Aye, it’s soccer ball ffs.
He does have his knockers.
We are now inthe land of Carry on CQN….
This game is actually getting worse, can we have Portrugal v Hungary again?
Chest a minute shouldn’t he be playing for BRAzil
He’s just nipped in and got the ball.
Pogba will earn £30 a min at Man U.
Game is merde!
Can’t even blame CR7 ffs
mullet
yeah – but will he be happy
Thanks to all.
Became one of those common cardiac event survivors in recent times. Sister and me back in 143 for 6IAR. My old pals behind the goals still giving every Celt pelters from 440.
Time for a catch-up read.
Celtic forever.
After starting to give a bit of bounce, he is starting to sag.
What is your preference –
Nani or Umtiti?
Somebody score ffs, can’t take extra time and God forbid penalties. Very poor tournament crowned by a very poor final.
Giroud doing the old fake pain think when he gets hooked for being pash.
What’s the betting on a moth scoring?
Poor game so far. Is there anything else on the tele?
The moth. MOTM.
Page 54 – what’s the highest page number cqn’s ever reached?
Umtiti for the cup.
this would remind me of a few CL finals if they weren’t so forgettable
Game a bit more open in last 5 minutes resulting in keepers having to make a save or two. . Portugal sensing French nerves.

Ever seen the size of Moth’s Baws?
My section 443 has finally gone red on the season ticket stadium map.

You go to BBC to avoid Glen Hoddle and get hit with Danny Murphy
