Midfield protection

930

While Neil Lennon’s mind will be more engaged with preparations for next season than SPL results between now and then he will be a bit alarmed at how porous his midfield has been recently. Celtic have been leaking goals at the back in an alarming manner but the cover from midfield has contributed most to the problem.

Injuries have been disruptive but it’s surprising that the team shape has not been maintained, irrespective of who is playing.

    I am trying to enjoy the same holiday time as you, sadly people from other walks of life feel it is ok to intrude on your holiday time and arrange meetings. In and out of the Emirates since 9 am yesterday until eventually got home at 9.45pm last night. Work phone off today but have meetings tomorrow. Oh to be an educator of the young.

     

    On a lighter note looking forward to meeting up on Saturday mate and stay away from painting thats for artists or wifes ;)

    livibhoy,

     

     

    Q. What does your bus story tell us about the 21st century???

     

     

     

    A. It is more socially acceptable to be a low life cheap-talking, shame-ridden, drug dealer than a corrupt, inbred, moronic, secret society loving Masonic turd!!!

     

     

    It’s simples HH

    Someone asked earlier about Gary Hooper’s goal scoring since January. Here are his stats for this season:

     

     

    16 in 29 up to the end of December

     

    9 in 16 since January

     

     

    Not a lot of difference at all.

     

     

     

     

    Was myself who asked. Cheers for that.

     

     

    Very un impressed by him lately. Work rate is everything when having a bad patch. When u dont have that then ur taking the hand.

    Dont see the point of bolstering our midfield when our strikers have had lowest goals scored of any Celtic strikeforce in 60 years

     

     

     

    Is it true that when you and Neg anon were in the boozers last week you both got asked to leave because the happy hour was starting ?

    “he wasn’t even a ‘Gary Tank Commander type’ he was a chef I think; pre-match food will be good :)”

     

     

    He could feed a battalion with a stock cube and a few vegetables – and keep them ‘regular’.

  13. Two football fans have been banned for attending matches for five years after singing offensive songs at a Rangers FC match.

     

     

    The Glasgow-based side were playing Montrose at Links Park, in the Angus town, on Saturday when the offences took place.

     

     

    Arbroath Sheriff Court heard on Tuesday that Andrew Fitzpatrick, from Glasgow, and Mark Simpson, from Cupar, were arrested by police after they were heard singing a religiously offensive song followed by another song, the lyrics of which proclaim support of a paramilitary organisation.

     

     

    Vicki Bell, football liaison prosecutor for the north of Scotland, said: “Good natured cheering and singing in support of your team is all part of the experience of attending a match and adds to the atmosphere.

     

     

    “Offensive singing of this nature however is totally unacceptable and we will continue to do all that we can to protect the public from such behaviour.”

     

     

    Fitzpatrick was also fined £200 and Simpson fined £350.

     

     

    must be a mistake or the polis up north have diffrent rules to the glasgow polis

    I am considering going for a small aperitif after the game. Mrs MT maybe with me as she wants to participate in demo ( what is it with you rebellious educators). Are you heading to Gallowgate or in to town.

     

     

    On another note I would steer clear of Celtic Park and Emirates Arena area tomorrow as there is a royal visit tomorrow ghuys and ghals.

  15. Hi All

    listenin to RS last Saturday,cosgrove speirs debate etc.I was wondering if Davie who asked who was working Longmuir from behind?(as if we didnae know) is the same Davie who on SSB said he had seen the 5 way agreement? Well done.any time i have heard you the simplicity of truth you explain makes me smile.

  16. Isthis a fact???

     

     

    “It is important to remember that Lord Nimmo Smith apportioned no blame against Rangers FC and thus no sanctions were imposed on this club. “

  18. Just realised, the above is referring to Newco and LNS was dealing with Oldco. Farcical, therefore, that Newco felt the need to issue this statement.

    Probably town before the game but Gallowgate after depending on circumstances mate.

  21. Congratulations to Gary Holt on his appointment as Falkirk manager.

     

     

    Was he a corporal in the army by any chance?

     

     

    If he was we can maybe expect him to shout…” DON’T PANIC!”…from the sidelines during matches!

    The impressive, if monotonous, vocalising of the Montenegran megaphonist was a timely reminder of how big the Embrocation were in [the former] Yugoslavia.

  24. A request for help from the collective that is the CQN Brains Trust .

     

     

    Can anyone recommend a refrigeration engineer in the Glasgow (East) area ?

     

     

    Fridge is kaput but freezer is still working . Need yo know if it’s a repair job or to forget about .

     

     

    leave any (sensible , crc/mwd) responses here or sannabhoy@gmail.com

    I will meet you before for a beer, think MWD said Cafe Rouge has a bar, then play it by ear for Gallowgate after the game. I also would like to meet up with bognor bhouyle as I missed him at the Aberdeen game. His da and my da were best mates.

    From rm…….Think pl may have been right about the “Parallel Universe”

     

     

     

    “Rumours circling from Ibrox reception lassie that the ex Manager of Panama is going to be head scout for us. Name is Alexandre Gulmaraes.”

     

     

    They really are deluded……

  27. Sanna,

     

     

    Best advice is to defrost the entire fridge / freezer then restart it.

     

     

    I had the opposite a few months ago, fridge working freezer not. This was the advice I got from the repair guys before they would come out as they were busy, it worked!

  28. Statement – Independent Commission

     

    The SPL Board appointed the Independent Commission to consider all aspects of the above matter and at no point provided any direction to the Commission on any aspect of the case.

     

     

    so who determined the level of sanctions if the SPL board had no roll?

     

     

    only the lawyer and the SFA were at the hearing!!

     

     

    could it have beenthe SFA?

     

     

    and they also demanded green and newco foot the bill?

     

    hence doncaster and spl wanting payment?

     

     

    still way too many question remain unaswered in this farce
