You and I have been through a few close seasons together, so it’s no surprise we have this uncomfortable feeling as we look ahead to (hopefully) four hugely important Champions League qualifiers while contemplating how ring-rusty Celtic have looked preseason. These games really don’t matter, of course, they are there to allow us to experiment and build fitness for the real challenges ahead, but you would rather we were turning teams over 4-0 than being on the receiving end. Evidence, perhaps, that the experiments were leading somewhere.
Lots of coverage today of the fall-out from Friday’s meeting between the SFA and Sevco, some of it informed. Huge issues clearly still remain before they will be granted permission to join the SFA but they would not be helped by their prospective manager, Ally McCoist, walking away this week. Sevco have not sold many season tickets but if McCoist goes their chances of doing to will become increasingly scarce. Friday’s comment from McCoist sounded like a scene-setter for a resignation letter.

Keep the Faith!
Hail Hail!
and as for Kelvin
he’s not the finest and i’d take a few bob for him
however, got to say, he played fairly well in the past game or two,
as far as i could see
unlikely, but he may come good

ggh,
:oD
I vote thats official
the Naisy pass at Ibrox was his undoing
offensive behaviour incarnate
:)
TopCorner – unlikely, but he may come good
I can’t help but like a player named after one of the greatest scientific minds ever, especially one from my alma mater.
I hope Wilson is thermo-dynamic next season. (thumbsup)
Wilson like a lot of players come to the backwater with expectations, rarely do they get it in time, stage fright is a big issue.

and the winner at debt mountain wisnae to shabby
aye welcome

I agree with all your comments, his last year was probably indicative of the malaise that set in during wee Gordon’s last season.
The moaning at team m8s incessantly done my head in and it got worse as Celtic were struggling. Having said all that, I would also take him back now because there is no doubt in my mind that he would really appreciate playing for Celtic again and would give more than 100% every time he wore the shirt. He will realise now what he is missing.

Craig Whyte is in big big trouble with the Monaco Police boy oh boy they have him in their sights big time

Scott macdonald was/is as much a Celtic fan as the real skippy I would say mate.
To celebrate the way he did, not once but twice!! Im sorry, yes play your heart out against Celtic and yes have joy at scoring but to celebrate like you have just won the world cup in a game meaningless to your team??? No way not a Celtic fan, not ever.
Don’t forget he was all ready to join for the hun too.
Dispised his attitude and never forgave him for the way he celebrated that day, even after his goals against the hun. Wee crabbit man who thought he was better than he was.
Hooper is a far better player, and plays with a bit of the humility macdonald lacked.
philvisreturns
he and young Albert “Einstein” Konterman
would make fine partnership ?

I remember that goal well. Actually think Robson was marking that thug, but Lafferty gets ahold of him and stops him matching McCulloch’s run. Caldwell got the blame afterwards but he spotted the danger too late.
was it roy croppie who says
craigy bhoy is in line to light the
big flame on friday ?

bazzabhoy,
whats your opinion on firest WGS then second Sammi
Could someone PLEASE tell me how to copy something over from YouTube …LOL
Kojo on 23 July, 2012 at 23:33
As above, it would not be the worst move. And you have basically covered it. :))
He had a good knack of scoring in big games, which is important.
gallagher on 23 July, 2012 at 23:19
He could be another well scouted gold nugget. Here is hoping he is. I consider Beram to be at the very top of our players at Celtic so if he is of that standard we will have done very well.
Bazzabhoy
Couldn’t agree more he’s never a Celtic man after the way he celebrated a was at that game broke my heart al never forget the way he raced away grinning

Each to their own opinion mate.
Hoops is a good player, but check the stats, they’ll confirm who has the most attributes.
Re that defeat and Motherwell’s goals, the guy is a professional footballer.
As to signing for them, several supporters of our club have either done or considered it.

WGS will be one of those guys you don’t really appreciate till years later, kinda like fergus.
We’re bricking it about beating Helsinki, when WGS had has nearly beating Milan into the quarters of the CL.
Sammi, as Burghbhoy will tell you, is my hero.

No prob, can’t help you there, it should be something similar though. Keep your finger on the address bar to bring up options would be my guess.

Was just the way he celebrated them bud, would you or I celebrate like that scoring against Celtic to deny them the league? Course not.
Plus he picked on big Sammi, which is a no no!!
If Landry had stayed on the post elbows wdnt have scored.

Jeezo..I wake up and Read CQN wants the Return of The Moaning Marsupial..
I Would rather Celtic Played SydneyTim up Front..
Oh Wait..!!

bazzabhoy,
on WGS he was appreciated,
I akways remember skippy and Sammi seemed at odds on the park, a lot of recent animosoty towards Sammi, I believe stems from that, supporters can be dead childish, innit geez :o)

What wee Gordon done at Celtic was remarkable, there is no need for a passage of time to realise this.
For some reason it stopped happening for him at Celtic but the way he carried on from Martin was exceptional.
Tommy Burns was obviously a very big loss to a lot of people at Celtic, it would not surprise me in the slightest if Gordon felt that the most, both as a personal friend and as him being that link man to the players.
A Legend of Celtic just like Martin before him.
Loved Skippy he was a real Celtic fan living the dream but he is a backward step from Hooper… Maybe even Stokes. I’d hate to see Skippy keep out Tony Watt.
If injuries hit Sammy could play solo but he’s better ‘in the hole’..
kojo,
you’ve wrote that about 5 times now, looks like a copy paste job to me if I’m honest.
memory’s not what its going to be eh :o)
cults..,
we’re all better in the hole
Petec ……got it ….you’re the mhan ……!!!
If EVER ANY Celtic supporter has the unfortunate experience of THINKING they miss the currant bhuns, just watch this…….and you’ll be all right again

A good call – for the 2nd leg.
I really hope we don’t go with 4-4-2 against the HJK dudes at home or away, 4-5-1/4-3-3 for definite.
I can’t see Neil going with your choice, I’m sure he will play Gary as the main man up top at home anyway.
I would let Sammi do his own stuff up top over in Helsinki, even if it means Gary dropping to the bench.
