Football doesn’t allow you to pick and choose

339

Europe?  A week ago I was all for it; there has been a lot of learning since.  We are not ready to make an impact on the latter stages of the Conference League or any other Uefa competition.  For me, the focus of this week is all about Easter Road on Sunday.  Football, however, does not allow you to pick and choose.

If Ange rested much of his first team against Bodo/Glimt tomorrow and suffered an even worse result than in the first leg, a new avenue of consequences would open up.  You cannot prepare property for an important game by losing a few days earlier.

Celtic must go out in the frozen north and give a professional performance, preparations for Easter Road will wait a few days.

    Ashley has billed the huns for 11 million according to KDS and cm

    Maybe OBAF was the most important issue if you happened to be a young guy who was criminalised and had life prospects changed for following a football team?

  3. Rule Putannia Putannia rules the waves,

     

    Russians never, never, never shall be slaves!

     

     

    When Britain fi-i-irst, at heaven’s command,

     

    Aro-o-o-ose from out the a-a-a-zure main,

     

    Arose, arose, arose from out the a-azure main,

     

    This was the charter, the charter of the land,

     

    And guardian a-a-angels sang this strain:

     

    Rule Britannia!

     

    Britannia rule the waves

     

    Britons never, never, never shall be slaves.

     

    Rule Britannia!

     

    Britannia rule the waves.

     

    Britons never, never, never shall be slaves.

     

    The nations, no-o-o-o-ot so blest as thee,

     

    Must i-i-i-i-in their turn, to ty-y–yrants fall,

     

    Must in their turn, to ty-y-rants fall,

     

    While thou shalt flourish, shalt flourish great and free,

     

    The dread and e-e-e-e-nvy of them all.

     

    Rule Britannia!

     

    Britannia rule the waves.

     

    Britons never, never, never shall be slaves.

     

    Rule Britannia!

     

    Britannia rule the waves.

     

    Britons never, never, never shall be slaves.

  4. Fred goes down as if shot. Ronaldo has a real shot at a free kick goal from 20 yards. Not the most popular man in the stadium.

     

    He misses.

    Ernie who was the Labour MSP member you personally got elected, what constituency is it ?

     

     

    A refusal to answer tells it all

    They seem to forget that this a site for Celtic fans, and that legislation was introduced specifically to target Celtic fans.

     

     

    And would be reintroduced tomorrow if they had a majority at Holyrood.

     

     

    But we’re supposed just to forget about it.

     

     

    No chance.

    I would for Tory before I’d vote for a party that interferes with children, their latest mockery of children is to reduce the age of consent to 13 years old.

     

    The tweets with reference to this monstrosity are a few pages back on this thread/article.

     

    Any Celtic supporters voting for this 👆 should be burned at the stake.

  8. Russia recreating the Union. Maybe England should invade the Republic of Ireland!

     

     

    You won’t get me, I’m part of the Union.

  9. Rayo Vallecano are the working class club of Madrid.

     

    Both Madrid big boys much the same.

     

    Answered my own daft question HH 🍀

    You’re now making a fool of yourself.

     

     

    I actually did something that ensured the legislation was repealed.

     

     

    You didn’t. You could have done, but you chose not to.

     

     

    Your choice. Live with it.

    It looks like wee crabbit face the Celtic hater has been bunged by someone to utterly destroy Scotland to ensure whoever did the bunging that Scotland will never be independent.

  13. Why do posters come on and moan about the lack of Celtic posts then bail out without making a Celtic post.

     

     

    It’s a mystery.

  14. Young Elagna’s goal for United reminded me of Didier Agathe’s goal in the Amsterdam Arena in CL play-off.

    Curious how you seem to think that a Benfica team who are well behind Porto and an Ajax team who were only a bit ahead of AZ Alkmaar last season are for some reason ‘out of our league’ .

     

     

    Surely the recent exploits of our local rivals suggests we (who are at least as strong as them and with greater resource) can compete with any team outside of the top 4 or 5 leagues on our day.

  16. Tom

     

     

    Ajax performance in the 2nd leg and our non performance v Ajax shows how a 3-1 lead is not a guarantee.

    She’s too scared to criticise @NicolaSturgeon and we all know why.

     

    She would be booted from her role by the McMafia and abused online by cybernats.

     

    Sums up the shocking state of politics in Nicola Sturgeon’s Scotland in 2022.

    Imagine the dim Tims falling for all the guff that was spewed oot by these guffsters.

     

    Deary me!

  18. Unfortunately, I think Englandshire will have 4 participants in the CL quarter finals. Rangnick made the right subs at the right time today.

  19. LIONROARS67 on 23RD FEBRUARY 2022 9:44 PM

     

     

    You don’t appear to understand how the Holyrood electoral system works.

     

     

    I should be surprised, but I’m not.

    BelmontBrian & MPShanks:

     

     

    I think about 80% of page 4 was full of that pish, lost interest logged off. Then back on next page and more of the same infantile shite😵

  21. Celtic post you say?

     

     

    Hibs on Sunday trumps tomorrow in any sane Celtic mind. King of your own frontier triumphs over mild success in Europe any day in my view. Or is that political in current climate. If so apologies.

  22. ERNIE LYNCH on 23RD FEBRUARY 2022 9:54

     

     

    Did your vote directly elect a Labour MSP what is his name and what constituency was it

     

     

    what is so difficult about answering that question

     

     

    Or is he a list MSP from the party list

     

     

    Tell the facts man or be damned

  23. Leeds have lost an incredible 56 goals, more than any other EPL Club, including bottom Club Norwich.

     

    10 goals lost in 4 days to bitter enemies Man U and Liverpool.

     

    How long will Leeds fans tolerate the pressing, all action Bielsa ball?

     

    Asking for a friend.

  24. MPSHANKS on 23RD FEBRUARY 2022 9:57 PM

     

     

    I respectfully disagree.

  28. Ernie, i will help

     

     

    In 2016 24 Labour MSPs were elected to Holyrood 3 directly by constituency vote, 21 by regional list vote

     

     

    Who were the MSP and which constituency which your vital vote brought to an end the OBFA

     

     

    I seem to recall you lived in England, devon maybe ?

     

     

    Some easy basic information is required to validate your hero status on ending the OBFA
