The thought was put to me this morning that Kris Boyd’s ill-considered comments on the Celtic squad – that they are divided – could be the best thing that happened to the team this season. Football clubs and footballers perform best with a ‘them’ to work against. We had this briefly under Ronny, when Aberdeen kept in touch for five months of the season, but since then we have pretty much had the run of the place.
Boyd is a professional footballer playing in the same league as Celtic. When an opponent comments on you or your team, the words carry greater resonance than they otherwise would. I doubt newspaper clippings are pinned to dressing room doors, but everyone at Lennoxtown will have reacted to what a Kilmarnock player has said about them.
Then we had the “Aston Villa make their move” for Brendan Rodgers tat. Brendan will leave Celtic eventually, but the entire planet knows it will not be for a team 15th placed in the Championship. It is no indication of his or Celtic’s worth and insulting to suggest otherwise.
Footballers and managers are best with a point to prove. Celtic are capable of winning every domestic game between now and the winter break. Whatever has gone on at Lennoxtown this season, recent comments have given the squad plenty of motivation.

DD,
Aye, they wouldnae part with anything including their excess gas ?
Pog..,
I was having second thoughts on anywhere is good to provide, problem is under whose banner.
a bit like middle east provide charity in the form of the koran as part of their contribution cost.
The Celtic charity should have no banner or indoctrinated fidelity, charity for charity’s sake, telling the world how much charity has been sourced by smashy n nicey is just that.

Good morning all from the Govanhill tangled up in blue.
Morning Tims……
I see the Israeli team had a wee unexpected win last night, unless ofcourse you know anything about Big Eck then its not that unexpected, idiot of a coach hasn’t got a plan A never mind a plan B.
And for the anti Celtic supporting fraternity on here, I purchased my tickets for Murrayfield last night, and I will be going to support my team.

EBT McLeish has set about dismantling the Celtic contingent that served Scotland so well recently. And of the two Celtic players left in the side scores an own goal, Karma is a bitch, Eck.
Gorbalstam I mean :-)

“Call me Ishmael. Some years ago – never mind how long precisely – having little or no money in my purse, and nothing particular to interest me on shore, I thought I would sail about a little and see Glasgow’s East End, home of the famous Glasgow Celtic.”

” In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice that I’ve been turning over in my mind ever since. Whenever you feel like criticising any one , he told me, just remember that all the peepil in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve had. You were raised a Celtic Supporter.”

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair.It was time to make my way to Glasgow`s East end, home of the famous Glasgow Celtic.

Well Bhoys and Ghirls Scotland and Celtic have something in common they canny win away from home in Europe Neither McLeish or oor Brendan have a clue about playing away from home in Europe.We should just stick to playing in Scotland and beating all the wee diddy teams. H.H.
!!BADA BING!!
I cant do the cut and paste thing from News Now , there is a story there of Willie Wallace having a go at Brendan Rodgers ! , saying the board should’ve kicked Brendans arse out the door of the club for not playing Arzani .
Mmmm. Strange indeed .
