Kilmarnock don’t enjoy Celtic Park

575

Kilmarnock don’t enjoy visits to Celtic Park, winning only once there since 1955, but seldom have they been on the receiving end of such a humiliating result from such a young and inexperienced Celtic team. You and I have seen these games – especially in the League Cup – go wrong so many times in recent seasons: Morton, Falkirk and Partick, to name just three.

What we have at the club now is energy and purpose that makes even our experiments seem potent. Brendan Rodgers must have been delighted at what he got from his players.

For some, like Leigh Griffiths, it was another hour nearer full fitness. These minutes are crucial in preparation for the almighty test of the season against Astana at Celtic Park one week from today.

Really pleased Roy Aitken will be around Celtic Park more often in future in his new role as Club Ambassador.  Roy was a huge figure at Celtic in the 70s and 80s, but there’s at least one generation since who know little about him.

  3. Cheers GDT and BT

     

     

    Rankin delivers again – “Tom Scobie isn’t a centre back but having him there helps Dundee United”.

     

     

    I’ve never been great at playing the game but now that the standard has dropped to presence rather than performance, I can now compete at the highest level.

     

     

    I’m out of contract, all options considered (Huns and diet Huns excluded).

  4. What is the Stars on

    Great result from ibrox tonight. Just what Scottish football needs.

     

    Hibs will now double in price for Saturday.

     

    Yippee

  5. Bateen Bhoy says PADDY COME HOME on

    Gene,

     

    Thanks, probably my misunderstanding. Not for the first time. Too busy kissing the RS’s of the moderators, apparently :-)

     

    At least it might save him asking about CL draw later.

  6. prestonpans bhoys on

    Great result at Ibrox tonight, the gullibles will be thinking the are masters of the universe. Makes the fall even sweeter when it happens :0)

    As well as our kids playing last night it’s good to see our ex academy players doing well in the other teams

     

    Ross Co, Dundee, Dundee Utd , Hibs , St Johnstone all have our tims in their squads

  8. Wits…

     

     

    Best price I could see before the huns kicked off was 4/1 the hibees, as you say hopefully the price will go out.

     

     

    BY…

    When is the home draw for Sevco drawn?

     

     

    Yesterday. The same day as Dunfermline got the phone call telling them what tonight’s score was to be.

     

     

    BTW, they got Livi

  12. PHILBHOY on 9TH AUGUST 2017 8:07 PM

     

    Dunfermline FC chairman apologises to their fans following the 6-0 defeat to Ran*ers tonight.

     

     

     

    Err….wait a minute…

     

     

    —————————–

     

     

  13. Loved wee Mc Gowans comment”Who do you want in the next round”

     

    “Anyone but Celtic”

  14. On the Shortbread commentators, it’s impossible to ignore Derek Ferguson. Much like Mo Farah in the 5000m, Derek sets the standard. Unlike Mo, it’s not one to aspire to, more a scraping the bottom of the barrel.

     

     

    Give him time to write his 30 second summary, rehearse it and make changes, Derek managed to describe tonight’s Hamilton v Aberdeen game as “played at a ferocious place”.

     

     

    Now the draw…..

  15. Cosy Corner Bhoy on

    Need to find a venue in Hull to watch the game on Friday evening. Both daughters visiting grandson and he doesn’t do football!!

     

    Unfortunately I will have to watch it in the local pub. COYBIG.

  16. Brilliant news about The Bear being back home.

     

    He’s been away too long.

     

    Legend of my youth

  17. The Spirit of Arthur Lee on

    After last night attack I hope celtic shut down the slashing section for a few games

  18. Great,put wee Mc cann oot on his erchie.Hibees into semis,hopefully.Firhill not easy for the Monkeys.

  19. They get an away tie but still don’t leave Glasgow. And against the only team who didn’t take a point from them last season

  20. Hibs v Livie

     

    M/well or County v Dons

     

    Dundee v The Invincibles

     

    Something wrong

     

    Sevco away and having to travel a long journey to……..Partick
