Jozo Simunovic has had an unusual first month as a Celtic player. His solitary appearance came in the Amsterdam ArenA two weeks ago, injury has kept him side-lined since, but there’s a good chance he’ll face Fenerbahce in two days’ time. It takes a lot for a 21-year-old to make his club, then home, debut in these circumstances.
Getting it right in defence on Thursday will be the most important area of the field for Celtic. The responsibility to attack normally lies with the home team in Europe but Fenerbahce will attack for all they’re worth at Celtic Park. A home defeat to Molde means that even a draw away to Celtic would put the Turks in a good position. They need a win and will have watched some of our defending this season.
Ronny played it perfectly against Ajax and I’d be tempted to do the same again. We can score against anyone at Celtic Park. Defend properly and we’ll do well.
Thanks to everyone who donated to the Foundation since our Great Scottish Run appeal went out yesterday. The Foundation are currently working with the British Red Cross, Refugee Crisis Appeal, assisting people fleeing war and persecution in the Middle East and Europe. Money raised from this month’s Jock Stein Anniversary game went to this cause, and, in line with many other clubs, €1 from every ticket sold will go to assisting refugees. There’s a lot more to come on this subject.
The work goes on in other areas, of course, as the Foundation works with those who fall through the cracks in society, and sponsors projects with the sick, or families who need assistance. There are a number of us participating in the Great Scottish Run for the Foundation, you can contribute on any of the pages below:

If you are running for the Foundation and would like a shout for your donations page, email me, celticquicknews@gmail.com
And it’s not too late to sign up, get the trainers out, and run it yourself!
Thanks for your support.

Big cup winners
I used the print at home option on Saturday.
If i remember correctly it appeared near the end of the transaction.
It cost £1.75 for 1 ticket so perhaps you may get charged that for the 3 tickets but more than likely it will be 3×1.75!
Still a good option as time can be short and no queuing is required imo.

Perhaps the people who no longer post have a gambling addiction and don’t wish to be tormented by incessant pop up ads for gambling sites.

I bet you they don’t…

You think mankind is best served by capitalism,I vehemently disagree.
KOJO thought the same.
I’d quite happily have a natter over a beer or ten with either or both of you,briefly discuss the matter,then move on to something else.
Racism-as I described earlier-has no place in society. And hopefully not on here.
Ha, just discovered who’s in the invisible clique.
Move along Timmy, nothing to see here.
Just spoken with a pal who mentioned Jackie Mc Namara leaving DUFC was on the cards last January as the money he made from transfers was weighing heavy with a lot of people and thinks Eric Black or our own John Collins could be tempted to take the role? Cant see it myself, JC aint going anywhere and is Eric Black still at Hull with Steve Bruce?
Macjay..,
How else were socialists going to get a say in the running of the club if they don’t use the imposed rules ?
Your portrayal of socialism is a good one and glad to see you admitting it.
I doubt there is many who don’t believe that feral capitalism has went too far or that there is no room for propellers controlled capitalism, most agree a mixed economy is the way forward except feral capitalists like yourself who really don’t give a monkeys about your fellow man as long as your doing ok.
Propellers could even be properly
BCW- The ticket pricing and charges need looked at mate,fleecing our own.HH
Are you sure there not for planes.

I ignored his posts, but the impression I got was that it was the racist views he expressed that people found offensive rather than his support for any particular economic system.

My blog name says it all! You really had to be at the Red Star game – TV strike so no footage.
The old hauns will remember that it was actually 1-1 at HT – the crowd were a wee bit agitated. It was the 2nd half when Jinky took it by the scruff and completely and utterly destroyed Red Star – an unforgettable display.
Hail hail Jinky
Bada Bing,
As per previous discussions the pricing policy of the Europa group games will not maximise attendance.
Why not is the Question?
HH.
Timaloy29,
You’ll have a source for that absolute fact and plenty of evidence to back it up then eh ?
What your saying is the USA and the UK put an illegal invasion force on the ground in Syria it that right ? Show us the evidence ?
Assads forces have been fighting on many fronts from day one, with the Russians involved many of those fronts will now disappear and allow the Syrians to focus on one enemy.
I see your also spouting the western propaganda about Assad using barrel bombs against his own people, as yet I have to see or read a reliable independent source.
I have seen information about false flag bombings in Syria not discussed or reported in the west if we are the free society why have these reports not been discussed openly ?
Can you explain why the west only want to destabilise secular dictators and not religous dictators in the Middle East ?
Taurangabhoy on 30th September 2015 11:07 am Bawsman I can’t remember if you were one of the lynching mob on kojo who bye the way talked far more Celtic than any other single person here since but you can believe whatever you think, like he can, in my opinion. Put a convenient label on it and suppress debate. Crass.
==============================================
I don’t do lynch mobs, I don’t do racism either, I found some of his posts offensive and told him so, I simply scrolled on past his input. ‘racist’ IS the convenient label I put on him and suppressed personal debate with him. A Celtic supporting racist is as bad as any other kind, in fact no, it’s worse.
Canamalar on 30th September 2015 12:02 pm…………………..Are you a supporter of Assad?

I highly recommend Bellingcat for independent open source, citizen journalism.

=============================================================================
Neither does bullying,which is what Kojo was subjected to.
Repeatedly.
Consistently.
There was one guy on here who posted about nothing much apart from his abhorrence of Kojo.
As I said,he was,and hopefully is,a real old guy who ,for years,derived enjoyment from coming on here,till the holier than thou brigade bullied him off.
Were any of you guys ever targeted for being a Tim growing up in Scotland?
How did it feel?
Racism is bullying taken to extreme.
CANAMALAR
AFAIK,the attacks by the US et al have not been ratified by the UN.
Could be wrong though. Plus ca change…

Naw, why would you think that ?

You think mankind is best served by capitalism,I vehemently disagree.
=================================================================
And we can courteously agree to disagree.
At least the Russian Federation have a viable strategy.
Have we learned nothing about who fills the void when regime change occurs in that part of the world.?
MACJAY
I had to google miscegenation when he posted that. Not because I didn’t know what it meant,but because I genuinely hoped that I was wrong.
It was a disgraceful post,and a disgraceful point to make.
Here,there,anywhere,he would have been pulled up for it.
My contribution to the witch-hunt consisted of a simple
Ffs,mate. You canny say that.
His post was deleted immediately PAUL67 became aware of it-not from me,I might add.
He didn’t apologise in the interim. He revelled in it. He was wrong,plenty of us have been,but opinions like that have no place in society. You can’t defend them.
Equally,I’ll give you that when he took PAUL67’s advice to ‘stick to the fitba’-which he did thereafter-his comments were ignored by many in favour of an attack based on his previous.
Of which,that one was hardly unique.
Macjay
Your one to moan about nasty comments from posters.
Not all of us have forgotten your murdering Irish ba*tards comment.
No doubt you’ll soon be on here moaning about the Celtic away support if you manage to pick up a ticket.
Regarding missing prolific posters….
Anybody know why The Battered Bunnet doesn’t post anymore??

The second-half of the 5-1 game was one of the best Celtic displays I ever witnessed.
Jimmy was absolutely brilliant but for me the man of the match was Bobby Murdoch. Everything came from him that night and he even coaxed Jim Craig into (arguably) his finest performance in a Celtic jersey. All three were outstanding and worked together so very well but Bobby was a colossus that night.
Great memories of great players and a great team. Sigh!
MACJAY 1214
Absolutely correct,mate. Disagree by all means,but respect for the other person and for their opinions is important.
Canamalar on 30th September 2015 12:08 pm Bawsman,
Naw, why would you think that ?
===================================
I was just asking. There are so many permutations in that country it’s mind boggling, the only incontrivertable fact is that it’s innocents who are being slaughtered. I have seen footage of ‘barrel bombs’ being dropped, the only people with means to deliver that weapon are the Syrian military.

Of course it was an unacceptable thing to say.
And he most certainly DID apologise for some of the comments he made.
He referred at various times to his Jewish friends,Mexican friends,Polish friends.
Some racist.
He was an old guy who was bullied.
Some may find that acceptable.
He also commented that controversy was the factor which made the blog work.
He did take that to the extreme.
And he paid the price.
Shameful.
Ah.
Here we go.
Personal smears.
As predictable as the bullying of Kojo.
THUNDER ROAD
The away game against Fiorentina in 1970. We took a 3-0 lead to Italy, and JJ just kept the ball, they couldn’t get it off him. Better than parking a bus.
MACJAY
I don’t remember the apologies,but we won’t fall out about it. As far as I was concerned,his apology was to stick to the fitba.
He did that,IMO. That was good enough for me.

Re Print at Home tickets the charge is £1.75 irrespective of how many are printed off.

Good afternoon. Did you receive email from me?

Again, it’s only an impression, and I may be wrong, but was the enmity he provoked not related to the views he expressed about people with black skin?
