  1. I am Neil Lennon e El Juarez Bravo on

    Very happy with the first time score. As for the performance…hmmmmmm…

  2. Well, we would all have taken a 1 -0 lead at half time .. but we are giving the ball away too easily and causing problems for ourselves. We need to retain it better and control the pace of the game.

     

     

    They are not a great side but we are giving them chances and owe a lot to the big keeper who has saved us a few times.

  3. Hooper gives ball away in middle of out own half and scares us even more

     

     

    HT and we lead 1-0. How I do not know.

  4. The best and worst of Celtic in the first 45 with a real Jekyll and Hide performance.

     

     

    A stunning early goal put a gloss on the first half but was nearly wasted time, and time again with poor defending and some complacent players.

     

     

    Badly lacking a leader on the pitch, to put their foot on the ball and Fraser Forster shouldn’t be exposed the way he was.

     

     

    Fortunately still very much in command of the tie, but if we repeat the first half Helsingborg will score.

  5. Never mind defence where the hell is midfield? They are storming through middle of park like its empty. When a header comes out no midfield to contest it, when we attack no midfield supporting where are they?

  6. celticrollercoaster supporting wee Oscar on

    HT

     

     

    I agree 2-0, please. Have it on as a correct score :-)

  7. HT 0-1

     

     

    FF has saved us from a total tanking

     

     

    Some players need to take a look at themselves in that dressing room. Nowhere near good enough. I hope Lenny throws some tea cups around. We will not be so lucky to survive another 45mins of that mince

  8. Mr X loves having a "fly kick" on

    The thing is, their chances are coming from self-inflicted errors from us. It needs to be cut out or we will eventually pay.

     

    But that away goal – priceless.

  9. Early goal and we go a bit too exhibitiony – midfield too loose.

     

     

    Time to tighten up 2nd half.

  10. Ah well, two positives to take from the first half, we’re still winning, and after that 45mins we won’t need to worry about other teams trying to sign any of our outfield players!

  11. Midfield can neither retain possession when we have the ball nor track runners when we don’t.

  12. so far so good.

     

     

    we have the beating of this lot – we just need to be a wee bit more confident on the ball.

  13. Imagine how frustrated we would be if we were Helsingborgs.

     

     

    Surely the players know what’s at stake?

     

     

    Surely they can see that the back 4 are getting absolutely no protection?

     

     

    Surely they can see that aimlessly hoofing the ball is only resulting in it coming straight back?

     

     

    It’s been 40 minutes of the last 5 minutes of a match with the home favourites pressing.

     

     

    Just calm the f*c* down Bhoys!!!!

  14. That wasn`t very comfortable to watch.

     

    Hopefully Neil can sort them out at half time.

  15. Hooper may not be fit ….if he is he needs a toe up the jacksey …lazy, lazy play …..verging on the disinterested

     

     

    1-0 HT …nae idea how we managed it

     

     

     

    Simple defensive errors, failure to clear the ball , Izzy wandering forward leaving the channel vacant (we are defending that badly that Bedoya looks as if he can play ..and he is pants)

     

     

    Nothing on the bench to change it save for Watt for Hooper and get him to work them hard

     

     

    They aren’t very good we’re damned awful

     

     

     

    Thank you FF your saving us from a hiding

  16. Great start then they came into it, they have three or four decent players and move the ball very quickly.

     

     

    We need a lot more from our midfield we’re being over run in there, Kayal seems to have difficulty in playing defensive midfield and when he goes forward someone needs to cover him as we give the ball away too cheaply.

     

     

    Hooper becoming more and more isolated up front which is a shame as they look shaky at the back…

     

     

    The whole team will be getting a rocket I would imagine at half time, we need to work harder all over the pitch and regain our shape and composure..

     

     

    Fraser Forster MotM for us so far..

    What a load of steaming s&*I()!

    I may end up looking ridiculous but we’ve got to HT with a one goal lead.

     

     

    We can’t be as disorganised in the second half and I’m not convinced that they have the ability to do the hardest thing of all, put the ball in the pokey!!

     

     

    2-0 Celtic.

  19. Awe_Naw_No_Annoni_Oan_Anaw_Noo on

    We need a qaulity centre back

     

     

    Have I told any of you that.

    On the bright side we can get better

     

    ————————————————–

     

    Please god I hope so I think broony and kayal are struggling as for the defence……..your honour we don’t seem to have one!!!!!

  21. eddieinkirkmichael on

    0-1 and we really can’t play any worse, can we?

     

     

    Young players showing their inexpierence but we are still ahead, Lenny will put things right in the dressing room at half time. Maybe Wanyama on?

  22. All our probs are self inflicted.Started with Chas and spread.

     

     

    Half time should give us a chance to regroup and gain control again.

     

     

    Referee is a menace and only seems to card Celtic players. He’s worth the watching.

  23. ourselves alone on

    By the sounds of it Kayal is ineffective…

     

     

    Second half Brown and Ledley in the middle and bring Paddy on the left.
