Kris, Nielson on opinions, careless cautions

731

Player who has been out since April in shock Uefa squad omission. The only surprise about Kris Commons and Uefa lists is that he was included for the earlier rounds, despite not pulling on a Celtic shirt since April through injury. He was there because there was space on the A list. He’s now been omitted because we signed Scott Sinclair and Brendan Rodgers needed to remove one name to keep his options open for a wildcard.

Kris’ chances of being fit enough to play are less than Patrick Roberts’ so his name came off the list.

I don’t habitually dig up managers at other clubs, but Robbie Nielson is testing the limits of incredulity. When asked about Scott Brown calling Jamie Walker a cheat, he said “If you have got an opinion on anything you are better just keeping it to yourself.”

This is the guy who can’t shut his mouth about referees, including an incident last season when he thought action should have been taken against……. Scott Brown.

Robbie, if you can dish it out but you can’t take it, maybe you are better just keeping your stray opinions to yourself.

We collected four yellow cards at Tynecastle: Gordon, Brown, Dembele and Sinclair. None of them incurred incurred when the ball was in play. Craig Gordon’s was for not going to his line at the Hearts penalty, Moussa Dembele’s was for knocking the ball away, Scott Sinclair’s was for running into the crowd after scoring a debut goal (he’s knew, he should learn, but it’s a clear yellow card) and Scott Brown’s for dissent.

If we’re going to tot up cautions, we should at least do it during play when there is some advantage to be won. Four conceded carelessly off the ball is unusual and could cost us later in the season.

Scott Brown in particular should take note, that was his second caution of the season for dissent, the first coming in Astana. Scott’s a hugely important player to Celtic, previous absences from Europe due to off-the-ball indiscretions should be acting as an inhibitor at this stage of his career.

    Warburton says, “He will help to stiffen the defence, especially Kiernan, he will come on strong”

  6. The Magic Hat scouring the Vannarama National League for a defender named Craddock to partner Fanny.

    Will Fanni be on a pay per play deal?

     

     

    Yes, if he comes on as a sub he gets paid for a short time

  8. Fanni, ya doughnut!

     

     

    This is like crowd incitement. (no not excitement)

     

     

    Told myself 2 pages ago that we had crossed a line.

     

     

    Now we’re looking to where the next line is.

  9. Someone said earlier that Walker`s appeal means that he is now available for the Hearts games V Aberdeen on Saturday. I thought the Appeal was to be heard on Thursday. Is it next Thursday?

    Gotta love CQN!!!

    Thank you.

     

    It’s nearly 40 years since I was first called middle aged. :-))

  11. Hope the SFA are on top of this to make sure that Sevco are not fiddling Fanni’s side letters!

    Middle aged? How dare you. I single-handedly bring down the average age of CQN to just under the average of the Sevco starting line up….which requires a power of ten and too many decimal places to list here…

    Hun fan at crumbleton arrested by Police Scotland for possession of one and a half ounces of Lee Wallace.
