“People don’t realise how hard he trains or how much he works at it” – Kieran Tierney, talking about Leigh Griffiths. Therein lies a story. One young player, who has worked enormously on his development, recognising the efforts of our other clear success story from this season.
Anyone who believes there is a consistency in the application at training of professional footballers is misinformed. Some are there early and/or stay late to work on their own. Some breeze in at the last minute and never hang around to run, lift or practice with a ball after formal training ends.
The club provides players with breakfast and lunch, but can’t monitor their evening meals or snacks. Or more. Some don’t need to be monitored, others do.
In three months we’ll watch thousands of dedicated athletes, swimmers and sportspeople of many disciplines, pretty much all who work on their development 24×365. Some live lives in the margin of early rises and hermit-like lifestyles. Most footballers live a different reality.
Things are changing at Celtic – and have been going on since before the Ronny era. Players like Kieran Tierney have been brought up to understand the importance of lifestyle and hard work. For years, young players’ attitude has been a major factor in determining if Celtic will retain their services.
Success is not just about inherent genius.

Never had much truck with Nationalists per se. Keep the guns well oiled.
Pass it on to the Unionists.

I hope we get Roy Keane and/or Martin O’Neill as manager.
A no nonsense Republican approach to Celtic is required.
Pass it on to any Unionists in our midst, The sooner they take the soup the better,

Some Christian Ska.
Foxy,
I think Roy will be our next Manager. And I will welcome him. The Ultimate Professional footballer.
I hope he has Ronny in his team as well.
It is All about the Celtic Kids about to break through, despite what anyone thinks, IMO.
Genuine Celts/ Genuine experienced players for experience is needed though, so Big Money has to be spent. That clicque, paid fortunes, that undermined Ronny would be as well saying FU, you stupid Supporters.
Embarressed by the Sevco.
They Embarressed Celtic, but got that pay every week, of multiple Thousands.
I despise Group Think. HH wee Kieran.
That horrible attitude can stifle Every player.
Certainly no Great Team Play can come from Self centred Senior Players DICTATING what is going on.
Get rid of EVERY one of them SELFISH Anti Celtic players aSaP.
If you are not giving it 100% on that pitch, no matter who it is against, you are CHEATING yourself.
I’ve seen WELL Paid Celtic Players cheat, Nir Bitton…..
Embaressing.
I reckon even macjay1 would want RonnyD as a coach.

No problem as far as I am concerned. I would like to see that happen
However , that depends on what a future coach may feel .
He may not want to have yesterday`s man hanging round.
So , it would have to be a role not directly involving the main squad.
Having said that , I feel that particular bird has flown.
Incidentally , Pete.
I am confident that some players , whose recent form has been poor ,will return to the standards they had set before once a new coach is installed.
The sooner the better.
Done and dusted this weekend ,hopefully and a good look at the squad with the opportunity for some of our fringe players to show their mettle.

IMO,the performance last weekend was simply inexcusable,and from virtually all of the senior players.
I personally would let them wear that jersey again.
BOBBY MURDOCH’S CURLED-UP WINKLEPICKERS on 29TH APRIL 2016 5:58 AM
Only saw the game on the box , so somewhat limited impression.
I do remember wee Leigh chasing everything down.
Take your word for it though ,but there has been a malaise surrounding the Club for some time now and I know we differ about the prime cause.
Precisely why I want a new broom asap and a new approach.
We shall see , Bobby.
Good morning CQN, since I have beat Jobo, I’ll report the weather from ML5…drab and damp, and cold.
Keep the Faith!
Hail Hail!

Enjoy Dublin,mate.
Wise idea to wait till now to go-Guinness stocks are now replenished.

LG exempt from criticism on Sunday. I’ve said for years that three players “off-form” is enough to wreck a team’s chances.
Well,we had three players on Sunday who wrecked the chances of any of their team-mates picking up a win bonus. And form had nothing to do with it.
DALLAS DALLAS WHERE THE HECK IS DALLAS on 28TH APRIL 2016 11:59 PM
Bobby. I don’t know what those on charge will do.
I intend renewing and my son has his name down for the standing section.
I have no issue with those who won’t renew and understand the reasons why.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Believe it or not,were I living in Scotland,I would probably renew too. I go to watch the team,etc. Not the board.
That pisses me off,TBH. My only avenue of complaint,canny use it.
Just thinking:
If we win the league, CL 2nd round Qualifier, 1st leg is 12th/13th July.
77 or 78 days.
Not that long to prepare considering:
Season finishes in just over two weeks
Players still to have their holiday/break (2/3 weeks)
We don’t have a manager and coaching team
A new system/game plan will need to be introduced and learned
We don’t have an injection of much needed new players
We don’t seem to be moving forward at all
Just a cheery thought on this freezing morning.
Pathetic fallacy.
Good morning from East Kilbride where we start this Big Happy Friday with a covering of slushy, melting-as-we-speak snow. Thick grey clouds above too. Not so good.
But in other news, just one more sleep till we (surely) kick start our quest to secure 5 in a row.

Cheers Mhate, champing at the bit…looking forward to real Guiness…:)
Keep the Faith!
Hail Hail!
Good Morning Timland.
Since cqn has been up and running have any
poster’s ever met up for a square go?
Not trying to take over Jobo`s job but the snowfall in Arbroath this morning is worthy of mention. Golf course a complete blanket of the white stuff.
Ronny`s Team for tomorrow ( IMO):
Gordon
Lustig Sviatchenko Mulgrew Tierney
Bitton
Roberts Brown Johansen Rogic
Griffiths.
I suspect many on CQN would rather go with Christie and Allan instead of Brown and Bitton but I don`t think Ronny will.

Nye Bevan
Outside. Now!
Until we meet again…
Keep the Faith!
Hail Hail!

Wait tae the better weather!!!!!!

And we’re unlikely to have a new manager until the end of My at the earliest.

I’ve met up for a square sausage, but it was part of a bigger rammy involving eggs, toast and bacon..

There is a dude in my Work who is a punk Rocker.
And he is always right, he usually is to be fair.
He genuinely is fearless. He questions me about believing in the Bible, I call it the Word noo. ;))

Good morning CQN
Tis clip of the young hoops winning in style is an absolute joy, the pain from the commentary is hilarious
A superb recovery followed up by terrific technique and a top quality strike foe Celtics opener is described as extremely fortuitous…..away to watch it again

lionroars67,
Get those pics on here ASAP.
;)))))))))
Go it alone
LIONSROAR 67
Thanks for posting that clip. Well done the young ones.
If only, if only…

Lionroars67 – thanks for posting that. The commentary had me in stitches.
My friends in Celtic,
A manager who is the best Celtic can get is required.
Foxy : what does a no nonsense republican approach have to do with getting the best managerial team for Celtic Football Club.
Genuinely bemused.
HH.
Signing aff ,need tae take Mrs NBRS tae the shop’s,
that’s what I get fur talking aboot square go’s,tae
be honest I’m well pussy whipped these day’s.
Morning all.
Enjoyed the clip of the young Hoops pumping the huns at their midden.
Hilarious commentary from the auld zombie.
“Fortuitous”, “not a true reflection of the game”…
GIRUY ya f****!
HH!!
mustn’t Grumble, Mustn’t grumble.
Enjoyed the highlights of the young Bhoys win. I think I enjoyed the commentary even more. The last sentence is the best of all “4-0 the scoreline; not a reflection of the game as a whole”. Judging by the highlights, it certainly wasn’t:10-0 might have been a proper score.
