Manager happy with preparations ahead of tomorrow

854

Half the battle when it comes to PR is not to score an own goal, which Neil Lennon managed to do in his pre-match press conference today when asked about the local ‘tradition’ of ritualistic animal slaughter before the game.  “You have to respect the traditions in Kazakhstan, they have a different culture.  We have our traditions.

“Our scouts watched Shakhter’s game against Astana on Friday.  We know the played a weakened team.

“We arrived early to adapt to the weather condition.  The journey went well.

“Tomorrow we play against a strong team.  It’s important to get a good result in the first game to increase our chances of reaching the Champions League group stage.”

Really looking forward to this one now.

    No Christchurch bars listed on celticbars.com, so nae luck there.

     

     

    I have a cousin living just outside the city. Asking her now about Tim pubs, so check here back in a couple of hours.

     

     

    Failing that if you are a traveller, pay for CelticTV and watch on your laptop. Great product and well worth the price. Just wish it was iPad compatible, are you listening Pedro!

    Black is clearly as daft as a brush.

  11. First time post, very angry and upset at the lack of vision shown by the board ,we all knew that our top players would leave in the close season. Amateurish we did not have a replacement striker in mind, scrambling around in the bargain basement at this stage is not on. For the first time in my life I am pondering regardless of outcome this season, if I will t let that lot pull the wool over my eyes again with false promises. 45 years it has taken me, far to long to come to the conclusion that we’re being played. More arguments that I care to remember against good friends and fellow Celtic supporters, telling me how naive I was. No More

    thats the one.

     

     

    McOist said he was ‘overcome with emulsion’ when asked to comment on the Black scandal.

  13. Was Black at Motherwell when this went on?

     

     

    The father and uncle of Manchester United and England striker, Wayne Rooney, have been questioned over alleged unusual bets surrounding Steve Jennings’ red card for Motherwell. They could do with some serious betting advice…

     

     

    At various times in his career, Motherwell midfielder Steve Jennings will doubtless have been warned about the perils of drawing attention to himself through the company he keeps.

     

     

    He will surely learn the wisdom of that advice over the next few days as his error of judgement becomes a major international news story, thanks to the involvement of Wayne Rooney’s father and uncle, in what can only be described as one of the most cack-handed betting scams in history.

     

     

    As we now know the Liverpool-born midfielder, Wayne Rooney’s father Thomas Wayne Rooney and Rooney’s uncle Richie are among nine men to have been questioned yesterday over alleged unusual bets placed on there being a red card in the SPL match between Motherwell and Hearts played on 14th December 2010, a game in which Jennings was sent off.

     

     

    Jennings a former Tranmere player and erstwhile club mate of Wayne Rooney as an Everton youth teamer, was arrested on suspicion of fraud at his home in Glasgow by officers from Merseyside Police, and taken to a station south of the Border. Wayne Rooney Sr., 48, was detained at his home in the West Derby area of Liverpool.

     

     

    In the match in question Jennings was shown a straight red card seven minutes from time during Motherwell’s 2-1 Clydesdale Bank SPL defeat. He was sent packing for complaining to referee Stevie O’Reilly about a rejected penalty, after already being booked for a tactical foul on Kevin Kyle. It is suggested that the midfielder questioned the notoriously vain referee’s integrity.

     

     

    As Jennings seventh booking of the SPL campaign he incurred a two-match suspension, with the red card sparking an automatic one-game ban.

     

     

    Jennings was shown in Sky’s live feed of the game clearly distraught in the dressing room following his red card and I am told he was also seen on the touchline deep in conversation on his mobile as his teammates warmed-down after the final whistle.

    Wait, I forgot its CL. Not on Celtic TV presently. Still worth it for the league though.

     

     

    Text sent to my cousin. She’s a farmer, so replies can be hit and miss.

  16. Canamalar, cheers that’s it installed..can only get itv4+1 but I assume it will be on there and I just need to avoid the temptation of getting updated before then!

    Thanks for the info on turkey earlier bhoys

  19. No more being taken for granted, thanks for the welcome and no I am not a current or any other fruit or a bun for that matter. Just a very concerned Celtic supporter, if we fail to qualify for champions league, its not the fault of the Manager, but the lack of support from the board.
