Helsinki to heaven

684

So how many of us checked the fixture schedule a month or so back and thought, “We can win the league on the St Patrick’s Day weekend”?  Then came Motherwell and Ross County, now we will do well to win the league on the same date as Gordon Strachan’s team did in 2006. This seems to exercise Neil Lennon more than me.  I’ll take the win anytime, although where it’s won is far more important.

Having said that, anything other than a victory tomorrow would be a sign of something gone wrong.  Aberdeen have been wretched in recent months and the Celtic players have benefited from a rare free midweek, allowing rest and preparation.  They will also have more than sufficient feedback on last week’s capitulation to ensure muscles are itching to go.

This month’s edition of CQN Magazine has just launched, some have said the best yet!  We take you from Helsinki to heave, these have been special times for Celtic and we know how to enjoy them……….

It’s written by the CQN community, for the CQN community, and is absolutely free to read online (special thanks to those who voluntarily subscribed, the lights have been kept shining as a result).

You can read the Magazine by clicking on the double headed arrow at the bottom right of the graphic below.

    Injuries. Hail storms. Driving rain. Canal closures and terrain you can’t cycle on. Yet three out of five managed the whole 70 miles and the other two managed 60 before darkness took over.

     

    Fantastic efforts by all. Tomorrow we go again.

    This is the team sevco humiliated…….and they say our game is not corrupt……they’re having a laugh……. and so am I……LOL

  4. Funny how when Celtic lose a game or two the players who won us the championship then become, poseurs, mercenaries, big time charlies, want away willies and worse and the coach who oversaw the defeats by Braga and Utrecht in a short space of time has us in the last 16 of the CL has become a fiddler, a tinkerer, a tactically inept buffoon…

     

     

    Funny old game football for the fickle..

     

     

    How’s Paul Caddis doing these days anyway or Liam Lawrence???

  5. Mc Fadden would have done us a turn no doubt. Maybe his sexuality was a problem . Tough enough being a Celtic player in Glasgow .Can’t blame him .

  6. The Spirit of Arthur Lee on

    Getting near the 27million mark in comic relief which is the amount that RFC denied to the small businesses in and around britain

    The pony tail was the obvious give away, and the never being at the football on a Saturday :O)

  10. Great 2nd half performance from Motherwell means we still need 10 points to clinch the title. Unless Motherwell drop any points we can’t win it until after the split. But our last game before the split is Hibs at home where I have a sneaky feeling we’ll be crowned champions. Tickets on sale….

     

     

    Oh and I really don’t care too much when we win the league, just as long as we finally do.

     

     

    If it could be offered right now then next season I’d take winning the league by 1 point, Last 16 of the Champions League, Sevco in the 3rd tier (if they’re still around) and either of the doemstic cups.

     

     

    Not much to ask, really?

    Like the photos on twitter, keep up the good work.

     

     

    Jobo, purely selfish, of to Oz for 2 weeks on Holy Thursday, don’t want us to win the league when i’m doon there ;-)

    That is a good comment.

     

     

    A packed defence will love a 3 man attack, we need to draw them out.

     

     

    Keep trucking m8ty. Your opinion is valued here at least, although I disagree with plenty of the things you say, I also agree with a lot of what you say. ;)

     

     

    It is time to get the players out of their comfort zones. People pay a lot of money to watch Celtic, some people use all their disposable income doing so.

    Let he that has done no wrong judge me.

     

    Everyone to their own, not my cup of tea kojo but he shouldn’t be tarnished on here.
