Languishing in Paris

710
By on CQN BLOG & Comments

When watching Real Mardrid, Barcelona or Bayern Munich it is easy to be discouraged at the gap between where we are and the quarter finals of the Champions League, but despite the many hundreds of millions spent on both Paris St Germain and Chelsea, the standard of passing and decision making throughout their game last night was abysmal.   Despite their win, PSG were the worst offenders last night, even the Great One was poor.

There is now a real prospect that no English side will make it to the semi-final stage of either European tournament for the first time since 2003, when Liverpool were last to drop out, at the quarter finals stage of the Uefa Cup……..  You’re welcome.

What struck me most watching last night’s game was Sky TV’s Gary Neville pondering how long PSG’s star players would languish in such a poor league.  This is the French league we’re talking about here, not the Scottish Premiership, it’s Paris, not the ‘New East End’!

It’s easy to mock Neville but he asks an interesting question, will players always migrate to a higher-profile league?  If so, there are more clubs than just Celtic in need of structural change.

    Received a confirmation to make 85,996. Another fourteen thousand required in the next few days.

     

     

    I hope someone famous picks up the baton to help your efforts beat the odds.

    This will bring a tear to the eye of all the oul yins on here. Like me.

     

    Mojo will be keeping a close eye on this prospect.

     

    This boy reminds me of Jinky in his early days.

     

     

    Watch Paul McMullan tear the Sevco U 20 defence to shreds as he teases and torments the full back, drawing a yellow then a red card.

     

    If this doesn’t make you smile happily you are on the wrong blog

    I believe he has made a number of first team appearances.

     

    Mind you it was obviously at a lower skill level.

    Doesn’t the herd of cows get fat off the flock of sheep?

  27. Dj67YNWA on

    Excellent skills shown by that young lad Paul McMullan. How young is this wee starlet?

    DOCTOR WHATFOR

     

     

    My horsey opinions at the moment are only of use as a guide of what not to back,sadly!

     

     

    Best offer I can make is to return to this thread on Saturday morning when the Naps competition is in full flow.

     

     

    There are some fellas in fine form,I can tell you.

     

     

    TOMMYTWISTSTOMMYTURNS has only had three winners out of thirtytwo,but they have all been at 12/1 or more. He’s the man I’ll be copying on Saturday,so no pressure,bud….

     

     

    The two I’m looking at are Balthazar King and Double Seven.

     

     

    Hope that helps,mate.

    I certainly hope so!

    thanks bobby ticks a lot of boxes for me, did you see my earlier post about charles’ april fool?

  34. charliebhoy on

    today I decided to treat Charles (son) and Charlie (grandson) to a burger king (the wee fella loves the play area in EK ) I also took along Nicola (daughter) to stop us looking like a complete bunch of charlies…..howevah, we got on to talking about the april fools that have been portrayed in various celtic websites, Charles gave a stern look and I asked ‘don’t tell me you fell for one?’…….’not a football one dad but Julie got me hook line and sinker’ Julie being his partner since his schooldays, this girl is a lovely girl keeps a lovely house and is a great mother, but not a prankster,if you get my drift so I sat up in surprise letting him continue ‘I got up first on the morning of the 1st and did my usual teeth hair and face thing before setting of to work, when I saw a pregnancy test stick with the two lines on it on top of the cistern, as I was running late I just headed out to work, so for the rest of the morning I had the worry about how can we afford another kid, dad I was bricking it, Julie phoned him at lunchtime as this generation do and when he asked about the pregnancy stick, she bursts out laughing thinking that he hadn’t seen it so her wee cunning plan, had misfired (that was my pun) she thought that he would have reacted immediately,and as he didn’t, he couldn’t have seen it……..instead he had a worrying morning at work …….ma poor wee bhoy

     

    oh and as an addendum Julie, like most new mothers kept the pregnancy test from when Charlie was conceived three years prior……..in case you were wondering lol

    I did,mate. I’d divorce the heartless harridan!

     

     

    Only kidding,it was very cleverly done. Yer lad musta been bricking it all morning.

  37. charliebhoy on

    when Charles dropped me off I pointed to the garden fence saying ‘see that stick there Charles?’ he nodded, ‘ well I peed on it a good number of years ago but it never brought me as much fun as that stick Julie peed on’ ….he was ragin’

  38. BOBBY MURDOCH'S CURLED-UP WINKLEPICKERS .........Praying for our WEE HERO! on

    Careful,CHARLIEBHOY.

     

     

    The experience might have put yer lad off for life!
