  3. murdochauldandhay,

     

    cheers for the travel advice,i gather most entertainment is based

     

    in the hotels,was hoping on a couple of excursions,but not 3 hours on a boat ;-))

     

    just going to relax so a few days at the pool with plenty Efes will be fine,

     

    not much chance of anywhere showing any games i guess

  4. eurosport commentator saying “tough, tough game for Celtic”, I reckon it coulda beena fair bit tougher

  5. Can’t be unhappy with that draw, away first and I will be home for the second leg, missed the HJK game as was in Berlin.

     

     

    Mon the Hoops!

    So if were to win this draw,what does that mean for us in the EL should if we don’t win the 3rd qualifier after Helsingborg?

  7. Dontbrattbakkinanger on

    Snake- agreed, but we’re not world beaters [yet]. File under tough but not impossible.

     

     

    A chance for both sets of supporters to sing ‘We love Henrik more than you’.

  8. Estadio Nacional on

    Well played Peter Lawwell in getting us that draw.

     

     

    He is doing a lot of great work setting things up these days.

    …………….

     

     

    This is the 3rd round! Win this tie and we’re in the CL, loose and we’re in the EL

    Lennon n Mcmjallby- beat Helsingborg =group stage of ECL.

     

    Lose to Helsingborg = group stage of Euro Ramsden’s.

  11. I am NL in NZ Tauranga on

    DBBIA Neil Lennon will make sure his players respect Van Helsing and then get a crack at the CL Group stages. Nae bother.

    With a bit of luck we can snaffle one of their players and leave Mo (James Brown) Bangura on their bus instead.

    Whit! I thought we had an extra qualifier for the CL!

     

     

    C’mon Celtic,do this!

  15. Philbhoy - It's just the beginning! on

    Will the BBC do a live commentary for the second leg or are the huns playing that night in the ramsdens?

  16. ArranmoreBhoyLXV11 on

    Who will Henke support?

     

     

    Green talking pash to deflect from our euro adventure..

     

     

    Happy days..

     

     

    Helsingborg it is..

    Ha, no doubt, the way he controls European and Scottish footballs is not to be under estimated….

    These are almost impossible to call

     

     

    Braga v Udinese

     

    Spartak Moscow v Fenerbahce

     

    Malaga v Panathinaikos

     

    Borussia Monchengladbach v Dynamo Kiev

     

    Lille v FC Copenhagen

     

     

    What we now need to know is that if a few of these sides fall out of the competition Celtic (provided we qualify) can go into Pot 3 and not Pot 4.

     

     

    Celtic’s coefficient is Sco 32.728

     

     

    The only teams above us who are definitely IN the group stages are

     

     

    Pot 4

     

     

    PSG and Galatasaray

     

     

    Pot 3 has team already in there and a few of the qualifiers

     

     

    Already there are

     

     

    Olympiakos

     

    Ajax

     

    Juventus

     

     

    The other teams which could make up this number are

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    FC Basel ** Sui 53.360

     

    Panathinaikos *3 Gre 50.920

     

    Anderlecht *3 Bel 48.480

     

    FC København *3 Den 46.505

     

    Spartak Moscow *4 Rus 46.066

     

     

     

    OR

     

     

    Fenerbahçe *3 Tur 41.310

     

    Udinese Ita 38.996

     

    Lille OSC Fra 38.835

     

     

    As some of these sides must beat one and other we must hope enough do so we can make Pot 3.

     

     

    It is a long shot but not impossible.

     

     

    If Braga and Dynamo Kyiv fall out 2 teams move into pot 2

     

     

    If Copenhagen, Anderlecht or Basle lose there is a good chance Celtic can go into Pot 3. All three of these teams have very tough draws. Cluj can beat Basle and The Cypriots could beat Anderlecht.

     

     

    Lets hope so.

     

     

    It would be some boost if all that came to fruition.

  19. UCL draw: Venue UEFA HQ Nyon

     

     

    Ramsdens Cup draw: Venue: Ramsdens Parkhead Forge. (Remember other pawn shops are available).

     

     

    Oh Happy Day.
