While Celtic were taking care of business in Dundee, Ferencvaros had the weekend off to prepare for their Champions League qualifying game in Glasgow on Wednesday. This means the Hungarian champions have played only two competitive games since the end of June, one in the league and last week’s qualifier against Djurgardens.
Rested players are better than tired players, but I would not be happy if Celtic were going into this match having played so few games. Neil Lennon will have learned things from Saturday’s game that will inform his plans for Ferencvaros.
French clubs have been European champions as often as Scottish clubs. PSG have two of the most talented and expensive strikers in the world, but they both failed to take the gilt-edged chances that fell their way in Lisbon last night, so France and Scotland stay tied on one win each.
90 minutes pass quickly in knockout football but the pain of regret lingers, just think back to Cluj or Copenhagen. I would use post-match photos of Neymar to motivate the players ahead of Wednesday. No one wants to feel like that loser.

AIPPLE – I lived just off one of the holes on the back 9 and used to climb the fence and play a few holes at night when it was quiet :)
PHILBHOy – Yes, I’m pretty sure the TV cameras were there when I was there. I don’t recall him coming more than once. I do recall it being a not so nice day and Seve was a complete gentleman.
Also played Dullater a few times – I think there was only 1 course there at the time, but it was a great track.

Is Dobbie’s Garden Center still at the bottom of the hill?
AIPPLE _ It’s a long time since I was there ! – would have been mid to late 80’s.
Got a Té Bheag miniature from a pal who’s just been camping in Costa del Uist! Nae bad!

Isn’t Football Insider “blog” part of the Rekkord stable……………?
Nothing good for Celtica is ever generated by this culture.
Is Hickey better than Taylor?
Or is it purely potential we are buying?
Aipple
There’s a garden centre still there though it’s been taken over by Caulders (sp)
GO TELL THE SPARTIM
Ah, OK.
My first ever garden was built from that Dobbies.
Thank you!

Keep the Faith!
Hail Hail!
BIG WAVY
Not seen a lot of the boy to comment but remember thinking SC final
yes wee Jamesy up against a 16 year old and was impressed how quiet he kept him
Then again some on here think their granny could do a job on Jamesy
Good night dear green place.
Until we meet again…
Keep the Faith!
Hail Hail!

Ah, ye olde Tea Bag dram, a lovely drop of the hard stuff. But, but, but, the worst hangover of my life..!!

Philbhoy…thank you for reply.
Anything that posits a potential positive for Celtica from the Rekkord and it’s korporate kith’n’kin is usually there so that one of its brood can trumpet a definitive negative about how Celtic has failed, been disappointed, out-witted…etc etc………
If Football Insider is talking about us signing Big Duffy – I’d bet it’s not gonna happen.
HH.
Westerwood GC never did get the Ryder Cup that it was designed specifically for.
That would have been something!
We will be very fortunate to qualify for the Champions League with Taylor and Fringpom in the fist XI.
I hope I’m wrong but if Duffy is the subject of interest from Premiership or Championship clubs in England, Celtic will not be able to compete with wages on offer.

Aipple- garden centre is still there
!!BADA BING!!
I need to take trip down to the old haunts of my teenage years next time I am over.
Should have been over at start of this month but eh, something happened.
Cheers!
i think if you have been on this place a few years, you might have got my utter contempt for “gowf clubs”
whats your favourite course ? who designed the holes ?
who gives a munklies fluck.
you tims got wealthy enough to be accepted. necessity to keep them going.
Thought the garden centre was still Dobbies?
Just had a significant extension built
Drive by it regularly
Dullatur golf club house, was rated as better than gleneagles a few year back, popular wedding / function venue
whats your favourite wedding venue ? eh that one up at the gowf course.
BW 10.27; Agree – potential. Though some may be happy we’re swapping the teeny Greg Taylor (1.75) for the towering Aaron Hickey (1.75).
Gritty Greg is improving nicely tho an alternate would give us better cover at LB.
TET: At Peter’s age, he needs to be careful while scouring the Balkans.
Andy Murray playing well v Zverev live on Amazon Prime. One set all Murray 4-1 up in the decider.
Jays friesdorfer, I can feel your pain. Glenfarclas for breakfast!

You sound a little below par tonight.
Saint Stivs…I’m not a golfer but I saw a teenage Sergio Garcia play. I don’t play tennis but I saw 13 year Andy Murray play. I don’t play snooker but I saw 15 year old John Higgins play…

that was good. a wee choocky birdie/
have to be honest, I dont mind so much the sport, i get why indiviuals join in.
They are good at sport, they like golf, their managers are in the club, Your a member.
And I once went to a wedding at a gowf club… :-)
SAINT STIVS
Was never that for me, understand it has been and is for others. Stopped playing when I got married and didn’t want to keep spending cash and not getting any better.
Oh yeah, someone stole my clubs as well so that was a factor.

=============
not denying the brilliance of individual performance at all. and they all are.
I am more talking about the 80s/90s working men making it good in places like IBM who joined these clubs that would not have had them 10 years before. Membership was allowed because they needed the money.
Been told often about sectarian banter as they played rounds.
Why join in with that shite,
Anyways, I need to check my dues for the Rankin Park club, the Larkfield Mazonic , The Upper Port and Wellington Bowling club.
I must be club presidents by now.
Get ready for this bombshell …………….
i had my daughters christening party in the Port Glasgow Golf Club.
other choices for the day were the Upper Port (no chance from me)
the Hibs Hall (no chance from the missus)
it was a lovely day. place full of 100ish non golf playing tims.
ok, Knight Knight, toom tabard.
Saint Stivs… :-)
Before I go…
Kirsty Blackman…Mike Russell…Stewart Stevenson…Roseanna Cunningham…Alex Neil…Jeane Freeman…
What do they have in common?
What’s going on? Are the rumours true? Will there be a new Independence Party?
Anyone?
Goodnight all Tims everywhere…
