    I think we’ll be doing well at Tynecastle to get a draw , which will keep title hopes lukewarm rather than hot . Maybe buy us some time to get a couple of reinforcements bedded in for the run in .

    This team as it currently stands will never win the league. Has Desmond bet the farm on the huns this season?

  11. vinniethedog on

    MON basically saying he’s rejected ( like Rodgers) dozens of dross …but probably won’t end well

     

     

    Death by a thousand cuts ……Huns tooling ip big time ….we’re getting left at the station wondering how they do it !!!!

    MOTM for me,Araujo.Faultless.Very good passer..

     

    Not great,but stinking night,plastic pitch,good one,but in that rain,skating skating rink.

     

    Team is all over the place.Maeda not a striker,and we really miss that focal point.Makes a hell of a difference.A wee break now for the transfers,says Martin.

     

    I think you can bring players into the Euro squad,if named before,I think Tuesday.Could last game.

    Maybe he could chase himself in that case. However it seems he’s even incapable of resigning. What a talent.

    Let’s not assume every currant signing is a Messi.

     

     

    Remember, it’s easy enough to get the Antmans, Bajramis, Cortez’s, Danilos, Rothwells of the world in.

     

     

    None did anything of much note. But the meeja will big up the capture of anyone that puts pen to paper for thums.

     

     

    That said, this keeping your powder dry is nail-biting and nerve shredding stuff.

     

     

    KTF I guess.

    The board seem to think that this is some sort of championship manager scenario- you bring the player in and they immediately continue previous form- so it doesn’t really matter that they don’t come in until closer to the hertz match (as opposed to now or previously). No appreciation for the need for acclimatisation to the physical surroundings, to the squad, for them and their families. No need to get settled in accommodation, sort schools for kids etc. it’s worse than amateur

    just one example….the laptop loyal as comical as our receruitment dept…

     

     

    Laudrup for god sake !!!

     

     

    “Oliver Antman’s Debut: He started the match against Viktoria Plzeň and helped the team to a convincing 3-0 victory at Ibrox. His performance, described by the BBC as “Laudrup-lite ‘electric wingers’ spark Rangers into life,” generated significant excitement among fans and media.”

    The Laptop Loyal ran with the hoax…

     

     

    The widely circulated Giorgio Chiellini quote about José Cifuentes being “one of the best players he’s ever played with” was a hoax or a “wind up” on social media and not a genuine statement from the Italian defender.

     

    Chiellini and Cifuentes were teammates at Los Angeles FC (LAFC) before Cifuentes moved to Rangers F.C. in August 2023. While Cifuentes was a notable player at LAFC, the specific, highly laudatory quote attributed to Chiellini appears to have originated as a joke or fabricated post online, rather than a verified public comment.

    I presume that they ran with the hoax that Nancy was an actual manager.

     

     

    FFS!

     

     

    WE should judge others after that most calamitous appointment!

  24. PeterLatchfordsBelly on

    Couple of positives.

     

     

    MO’N has won as many games as Nancy after 2 games back. He’s also managed two more clean sheets than the French dud brought in by our pathetic excuse of a CEO.

     

     

    Second, Araujo is evidence of how some smart loan moves can bring results. No chance we win that game tonight with Tony ‘goal a game’ Ralston.

    All these signings Sevco are splashing out on, it would make you think that they know something most of us don’t. . . . … . ….

    Just like the daft Huns knew that Covid was a lie whilst the even dafter Tims were bragging about how many vaccines they had because krankieism said the vax was safe and effective.

    A quite startling post, but then again the nation of Israel is a contradiction, a contradiction that separates the Celtic board and the Green Brigade.

     

     

    The nation state of Israel is Jewish, Arab, etc, but it complicates this by intertwining Jewish ethnicity and religion with national identity and law.

     

     

    Another contradiction is when anyone challenges Israel they’re immediately labelled as antisemitic, but a Semite is someone who speaks a sematic language (Jews and Arabs), but the term antisemitism is now regarded as a prejudice, hatred, or discrimination against Jews alone.

     

     

    Then to complicate matters there’s Zionist, with the latest figures revealing 65% of British Jews identifying as Zionists, but 56% believe in a 2 state solution to the current conflict / genocide.

     

     

    It’s long past the time the Israeli state and Jewish religion became separate identities.

  33. quadrophenian on

    As a kid growing up in Glasgow, I thought that there were lots in common between Catholics and Jewish folk.

     

     

    Indeed, I caddied for a founding member of Bonnyton Golf Club, who told me of his role in having to establish a club, as so many of the existing clubs wouldn’t have catholics or jews as members. Me not knowing about or caring if he was a zionist then, I encountered a decent man who treated me and other caddies very well.

     

    I always thought both groups were perceived outsiders to the prod orthodoxy and felt Celtic was a good fit for all who chimed with our origins as an open-armed, community minded charitable organisation.

     

     

    Now, I think the actions of the Zionist state is poisoning relationships, friendships and alliances and increasing the toxic divisions in societies the world over. But I still have and hope to keep several Jewish friends who are not Zionists nor even Celtic fans.

     

     

    I just wish, saying it again, there wasn’t so much bitterness and recrimination and seeing the potential worst in those around us instead of glimmers of the better, more human qualities. Mibby I’m just too naive.

    The World is becoming very militaristic with soft power replaced by military might, some democracies act like fascist dictatorial states now seizing countries and their commodities and threatening those who won’t just hand over territory for them to exploit for greed. It is not an optimistic view of the future as these events do influence the people in the street, with tragic consequences for the innocent.

    Tierneys face hit Falkirk player’s elbow said the commentator

     

     

    ________________________________________________________________________________

     

     

    As ever Michael Stewart decided to completely play down the incident with ‘there was no intent there’. How can he possibly know this? only the player himself knows if there was any intent to injure a fellow professional. While he is one of the best co- commentators of a bad lot, there bar is on the ground, he always has this nonsense talk during games. There was very little discussion on how a player ends up bleeding form the mouth and on the ground, one poor replay that was it.

     

    Premier Sports must have shown at least 10 to 12 slow motion action replays of the tap Trusty did on the Hun goalkeeper during the League Cup semi-final. While there may well have been a coming together of 2 players, possibly one of his own, it would have been good to get a look to decide for ourselves not to rely solely on Michael ‘there’s no intent there’ Stewart.

     

    One last point, near the end of the match Falkirk crossed the ball into our box and 2 Falkirk players went for it and clashed heads, both required treatment on the pitch, it looked like neither left the pitch, am I correct? If so is there a different rule now for treatment for head knocks means you don’t have to leave the playing field?

  37. EmeraldBee \o/ A Double Niner!! on

    Watched the game in a pub last night with a guy who has family Celtic-leanings but isn’t really a Tim, and who’s football interest lies in north London.

     

     

    As we watched and talked about the game he came up with a couple of questions: what has happened to Celtic since just under a year ago, and who is actually scouting for players to be brought in (this after I had told him about Martin’s reference to making so many ‘phone calls)?

     

     

    I tried my best to answer the first question in a bit of detail, but the simple and honest answer to the second one was “Fecked if I know” (because I don’t).

     

     

    Shambles comes nowhere near being an adequate description.

    “..is there a different rule now for treatment for head knocks means you don’t have to leave the playing field?”

     

     

    Yip, for obvious reasons. Same for any other potentially serious injury.

    Tierneys face hit Falkirk player’s elbow said the commentator

     

     

    MB, the most embarrassing incident for me was late on when the Falkirk defender bent his head down to clear the ball from his box then, when the ball wasn’t completely cleared and was collected by a Celtic player in a threatening position, fell down holding his head and the ref, right on cue, blew the whistle, indicating a player had a head knock. Farcical.

    We have to solve the puzzle of Calum being man marked. Our midfield seem incapable of playing through when pressed.

    I think most of the team were man marked?

     

     

    It seems to be the preferred tactic of the opposition- let Scales have the ball all he wants and man mar everyone else.
