Nerves and joy ahead of Inverness game

739

I’m sure I’m not the only one who winced when I read Neil Lennon suggesting tomorrow would be “very joyous”.  Let’s remember, Inverness Caledonian Thistle won at Celtic Park on their visit earlier this season and have punctured our title ambitions in recent seasons.  There is a competitive football game to win before anyone can talk about joy.

Getting nervous about tomorrow already…..

Delighted Motherwell made short work of Dundee United last night.  They deserve their second successive top two SPL finish, a remarkable achievement for a small club.  Where are you, Aberdeen, United, Hibs, Hearts?

The curious situation of Charles Green, no longer Newco Rangers chief executive but still director of the club, and expects to remain so until the end of May.

Dundee manager and professional deep searcher, John ‘Bhomber’ Brown this afternoon told Radio Scotland, the SFA “want to take stock and take a look at their own department”, when asked about Neil Lennon’s victimisation for using industrial language at a football game.

Wise words from Bhomber.

    Don’t remember anything about winning the title in 54 [ Being 3 and a bit ].

     

     

    Remember 66 very well..

     

     

    A sunny day . Away to Motherwell . Missed lots of chances and then Bobby Lennox scored..Yeah Yeah Yeah !

     

     

    Bought a 7 ” choon on the way to the game ——

    Occasionally dig it out and give it a twirl . . It takes me back to that great day.

     

     

    Heavy rain , way down south.

  2. Enjoy the party everyone!

     

     

    I’m off oot in a Kev style to watch the game in Cheers Bar, Sydney with all the Bhoys and Ghirls from the Sydney City CSC.

    Looking forward to today, saving up for a season ticket, bringing the wee man, life’s so much better without ’em!!!!!!

  4. Congrats to thistle and Peterhead

     

    I hope tomorrow we win it in style then have a fifteen minute countdown on the big screen with Celtic songs playing until NFL runs out of the tunnel to the biggest cheer of the day and then let the party begin

    I understand #Celtic have asked to be kept informed regarding Johnny Russell but Jackie Mc wants to keep him.

  6. Excellent (if long) read in today’s Sunday Observer about the growth of Spanish and German influence across European football:

     

     

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2013/apr/20/barcelona-real-madrid-champions-league

     

     

    One particular passage stands out for me, and the future at Celtic I hope, in relation to academies and homegrown players:

     

     

    “There are sound fiscal incentives for Bundesliga clubs to make sure that chance is generously extended. The top two tiers combined spend more than €100m on their academies each year, with notable successes. Bayern boast the home-growns Thomas Müller, Toni Kroos, Holger Badstuber, Diego Contento, Lahm and Bastian Schweinsteiger, while across the Bundesliga 275 out of 525 players used in 2010-11 were domestic academy products. The situation is similar in Spain, where Athletic Bilbao have used 20 academy players this season, Real Sociedad 16, Barcelona 15 and even fiscally incontinent Madrid seven.”

    Hoping for title number 14 in my lifetime today.

     

     

    Was reading back through to see how many some have seen and 24 does seem to be the most popular number so far. So many won over a short space of time, I guess.

     

     

    Maybe there are a few on here who were around for 25? Craggy Senior certainly was…

     

     

    Winning so few titles in the 30’s, 40’s and 50’s probably means we have few posters who have seen more than 25.

     

     

    What matters most is that Celtic reach 44, every single one battled and fought for, and won fairly.

     

     

    Good luck to Neil and the Bhoys today

    Precisely put.

     

     

    The next instalment will be when Chortles is forced to spill the beans (possibly in a court) about who knew what, where, and when.

     

     

    Allez LeCoist especially is complicit and impregnable making him a member of the Sevoconians that know everything – how else would you keep a job after suffering the worst results of their ten month history?

     

     

    All will be revealed when the suing starts CSC

    I certainly can’t as I broke my arm that day/night.

     

     

    Was working in London and came up for the game so was staying with the folks.

     

    After many sherberts got home and everyone in bed so didn’t want to wake them up.

     

    Went up stairs in the dark and reached to put landing light on, missed switch, lost balance and flew doon the stairs, backwards.

     

     

    Broke a table in the hall and knocked the front door aff it’s hinges.

     

     

    Woke the house didn’t I! Old man sent me to bed.

     

     

    Didn’t realise I had broken arm until I was sitting at my nieces Christening next day and as the booze wore off the pain started properly. In the Western waiting for 5 hours after that.

     

    Green and white hoops everywhere and everyone still smiling like loons.

     

     

    Happy days!

  19. Morning from a sunny Solent, I really hope we turn up as a team today and do this in style.

     

     

    Hail Hail

  20. Cmon Celtic let’s wrap up the league today – and let’s do it with some style, playing football the ‘Celtic Way’!

     

     

    As posted yesterday this would be the 25th during my lifetime – the first being 1954 (like some on here), although being only two months old at the time I have no recollection!

     

     

    Remember 1966 very well ‘tho.

     

     

    Last year at Rugby Park was a memorable and unforgettable experience, also because it was the first time that Miss Tally had witnessed it.

     

     

    HH!!

  21. If Celtic clinch the championship today I have worked out that they will have won the league on average every 2.36 years of my existence!

     

     

    …and if it had not been for those cheating bassas the average would have been a LOT lower!

     

     

    HH!!

  22. FAVOURITE UNCLE on

    ART OF WAR.thanks for that palomine goat me greetin. off oot into o’neils in york for game.

  23. Well heading out soon, taking my lovely wife and daughter to Celtic Park to hopefully take in a championship win.

     

     

    I would like to wish everyone – starting with Neil and Johan and Gary and the players and every supporter at the park or at home or abroad a joyous, beautiful, fantastic day.

     

     

    God Bless us all.

     

     

    Every single one.
