The James Forrest Feedback Club were quiet last night. I’ve no idea if James will rediscover his form on a sustained basis, or if his limbs will allow him to attain his potential, but it was good to see him running at defenders with confidence again.
He got the measure of John Rankin early on. Thereafter the United marker could do little more than block James whenever they faced-off.
I’ve been impressed with Dundee United during this series of games. Fojut held things together remarkably well at Hampden, you can see why we signed him subject to a medical, while Ryan McGowan was clearly their best player at Celtic Park, notwithstanding his late lunge at Liam Henderson. Well done to McGowan for coming onto Twitter to share apologies and congratulations.
Nadir Ciftci’s swagger reminded me of Jackie Dziekanowski in his latter days as a Celtic player. He’s probably found his level at United, where he can turn it on at will, but the modern game is looking for something different.
Loved the moment when a fouled Nir Bitton ruffled the hair of his assailant, Aiden Connolly. Nir is growing by the week, I’m working hard to avoid comparisons. We’ve not seen much of an edge from him since that, mistimed, tackle against Ajax, but he could do with some of that in-your-face attitude others in the midfield have.
Not been online much since the game, what suspension have the SFA offered Paul Paton after his altercation with Anthony Stokes?
Keep your eyes peeled for a nomad. They can hide in bins and outhouses. Check your shed. Any will do.

John was and probably still is a lovely guy. So much so it took me two years to find out he was a blue nose. Excellent footballer and was still running rings round me in his forties when I wasnt even 30.
Gave me a couple of dull ones though when he thought I was being a bit uppity.
Always prefered him in my team than playing against me.
Robert was some player too though mind. But his knee was giving out in those days.

Robert’s knees give him real grief. Up till couple of years ago you still saw him running 10k every Sunday morning knees strapped up.
Juventus again get a favourable draw.
There is something about this club which has me thinking they are in league with dark forces.
Cynical CSC.

We probably know each other , not many tims in Renfrew who played for the YM until the Govan Bhoys came in .
Midfield maestro
I used to play for Ashvale Vics and Tannahills were our sponsors. (Well we went back there for our pies after the games as long as we bought a few pints).
It is a pity but Lustig appears to be one of those unlucky players who picks up injuries very easily and are not quick healers.I was like that when I played the wife used to say if there is a rabbit hole on the pitch that I would fall into it and injure myself.There are many unfortunate players like this and we have had our fair share at Celtic. H.H.
tim tanium
No, Paul Connell. Brilliant keeper. At 15 Spurs interested, nothing came of it. When with Renfrew YM, he played in bounce game at Ipox against their U21’s, interested in signing him. Then they heards what school he attended as a boy, end of interest!
Tim Tanium
Here you !
I know who Midfield Maestro is talking about now. I know him as Robert and he is tee total.
Bloody Rubentus get the easiest draw!
Infamy!
Never mind they will get humped in the semis by Barca, Real or Bayern!
Hopefully.
HH!!
I see McGowan is at it again trying to wind up Ronny on twitter this morning. What is it with these Dundee Utd guys ? I think the 4 games against us have gone to their head, wee bit of publicity as they’re in the limelight.
Suppose talking about anything other than the results is their agenda…
reilly1926
He’s teetotal now. The Robert i kicked about wae could drink me under the table.
Scottish cup final 30th May versus Falkirk prefer to beat Hun teams
CL QF draw throws up some crackers:
Barca get PSG and a Madrid derby.
Jings!
midfield maestro
Aye. You’re good at this ! How’s your leg ? Sill stopping you from pounding the streets ?
Happy birthday Lionsroar, hope you have a great day.

There actually was a Tannahills team that drank out of the Charleston. Which was weird.
Ohits we must have met in Corkers at some point.

Just back from physio, you stalking me? Not ran for 5 weeks tomorrow, when done my calf, again! Was going to try a run tomorrow, you know how much i run, going stir crazy without it.
Just got your tweet. Small world.
The Herald,not the same paper since Kirk Service times and the price o coos were removed form page 2.It always nice to reflect and ponder(aye right) why the change in narrative on behalf of the cheats.
15/06/12 – THE HERALD – “Air of unreality as 140 years of history is formally ended in less than nine minutes…The Rangers creditors drifted in through Exit 50 at Ibrox Stadium just before 10am and by 10.09am they were on their way out. In those few minutes 140 years of history had been rubbed out”. (Teddy Jamieson and Richard Wilson)

Ps kirk times can change,price of Coos can go up or down,but it Happened :-)

Played for Tannahills for a few years. Story was, they were set up by crowd of guys who went to watch Celtic in late 60’s, fed up seeing them winning everything & wanted to start their own team. Started in Tannahills, then Afton, still Craig dhu.
Midfield Maestro
I may have kicked you at some point:-)
The Afton was my grandfather’s pub. Well that and the Turf and when he wasn;t barred The Tea Gardens.
Reilly and I helped him win the pub quiz once in the Afton. A pub quiz like no other. Boys from the Blackstuff funny.
