It’s a bit frustrating being so close to qualification for the knock out stages last night before a momentary lapse cost us late in the game, but there were plenty of positives. 60 minutes into last month’s game at Celtic Park against Astra, taking four points from them looked very ambitious. We played considerably better last night in the corresponding home game, or in the home game against Dinamo Zagreb.
Celtic are functioning better in midfield, while defensively they’re also looking solid. We acknowledged some weeks ago that without Guidetti or Commons we would struggle to create and execute chances, and so it proved.
With Anthony Stokes also out the picture, Leigh Griffiths got the nod to replace Stefan Scepovic and instantly brought some drive to the forward line. He was unfortunate that his ‘goal’ was disallowed for a debatable infringement, but he just brings the kind of purpose inside the box that we didn’t have until his arrival.
We’re now four games unbeaten in this competition, and we’re improving. The evidence suggests that Salzburg have also improved since we took a point from them on match day one. Last night’s result in Zagreb was impressive, but Salzburg will face their stiffest test of the group at Celtic Park.
Still fancy our chances of winning the group.

Well done on noting and trying to account for what we would like in that document
I think as far as poss distance our emotion whilst using the available evidence -fud&helps, and all media outlets from football, spl,
Friesdorfer, TBB and Auldheid have the right idea in using their own stupidity and ignorance of the law to hang themselves.
If done right it could be a historical document.i hope this is so and that Tims reading in the future know our feeling.
:-)

Is it only me or did anyone else watching the build up to BBC Reporting Scotland get the impression that Celtic had become involved in another racist incident with another club by the way it was presented in the 6 o’clock news slot about ‘the news where you are’?
Is it true the Brazen’s changed its name to the Raunchy Ranch?
1-0 Well
Zico-Malteese Bhoy, Best wishes to your niece, I will most certainly pray for her to-night.
Hail Hail James McClean, A lad I would have loved Celtic to sign, I have little doubt that the Statement was most likely prepared by his Solicitor or someone of that ilk. However regardless of who wrote it, it was at the lad’s behest and he has shown dignity and at the same time courage and conviction not ever to forget his own people. I salute you James.
p.s. I note that James did not start game to-night, relegated to bench.
Still Game just about to start on beeb1. I know I know. :-)
Weefra HH praying to Wee Oscar.
Its now called “the brazen hussy”
Motherwell score again but female linesman wrongly flags offside.

I agree it is sad such a statement should not be needed, I feel explaining why you are not wearing a poppy(for whatever reason) goes against the original intent of remembering in whatever way we want.
Hope your well mhate.:-)
HH
Weefra, magic.

Jeezo thinking of raunchy ranch and T.D. is too far!!!!
Evening muchachos and a happy Friday to all my Celtic friends I’ve met through Paul67s hoose, and those I may meet in the future.
Offski again, c’mon NL’s Bolton ✊
Feel like having a wee drink tonight to raise a glass to the man that taught me a lot, the most important thing he taught me, civility costs nothing. I try hard to think of that every day, especially since 18/10/1999.
Now he was not what you would call a Celtic man, not that he kicked with the other foot. He wasn’t really a football man but thanks to him I grew in to a Celtic man, he took me to my first game when I was about 8 or 9 years old. A drab 1-1 against Morton, cold midweek night in the deid club end. He took an interest in my Team’s fortune as he knew how much they meant to me.
Trouble is I don’t think I told him or showed him how much he meant to me. I wish I had visibly shown him more often how much he meant to me. He was as Mum wrote and as I read out at his Requiem Mass:
I love you Jim
My best Pal
The best Father and Grandfather
All my love
Till we meet again :)
You have got God, Mary and Jim for having to put up with me…:)
Jim was not a drinker, would sit all night with a pint of Lager Shandy, half n half, so tonight I will not partake.
Jim would have been 84 today, thanks for everything, Hoopy Birthday Dad, love you.
Keep the Faith!
Hail Hail!

Completely agree. It should be down to personal preference and no explanation should be necessary.
I’m grand big fella, hoping to get out for a beer in the BV next Friday if you’re about.
Lennybhoy
Lovely words ma pal. God Bless.
Masty/JNP
You’re thinking of Dirty Nelly’s upstairs!!
