Callum McGregor (25) burst into our consciousness as a winger under Ronny Deila but has found his true calling as a deep-lying playmaker this season. From there he establishes the pace at which Celtic play.
I previously heard Kieran Tierney say he enjoys full back better than the left-mid position he played as a youth, as he can see the game develop more from there. The same is true of Callum, who is crucial to Celtic’s performances.
The key aspect he has is the ability to send and receive passes drilled to feet with pace. Success in the modern game is increasingly about how fast a pass you can reliably control or make. That close, intimate, control, Callum has permits him to play at the very highest level.
I am delighted he has signed a new contract, securing him until 2023.
Having secured the result at halftime, Celtic strolled the second half, no doubt with an eye on conserving energy in this most draining of months. Injury to Odsonne Edouard was as predictable as it is regretful, but what a performance from Mikey Johnston. I am sure he will not become a striker, but the lad has talent. Delighted also for Anthony Ralston, who marked his return to the team with the opening goal.

hi bhoys about this time 50 years ago. my aunt bella would make a big pot of tattie soup as she called it and everyone no matter what creed or colour was invited, remember a big golden plate of soup and a bilsland or a Medora square slice of bread dipping into the soup, seventh heaven so tonight I bought a can of baxters lentil soup because I know she used lentils in the soup, and put a few potatoes in as well but it does not taste the same ah memories.hh.
mine’s was a big outsider
That her dark hair would weave a snare

We won’t miss rogic in his current form,in my opinion ?
===============================================================
Rangers won`t miss him either .
When Bobby Murdoch plays, Celtic plays, said Jock Stein.
Says it all for me. Best player I have had the privilege to watch in a Celtic jersey.
RON67, yes that was my preference also aint it a shame some posters try to make fun of my late aunts endeavours.hh.

The wee mhan and his mates love it, it’s a wonder they can train at all
but the downside nae big ooty to dip into it, broon bread to keep the
princess happy 8-))

but the afters were sometimes better 8-))
Oz is a Celtic loving country and the people are very charitable but all
the credit is due to the hard work of PADDYMAC and our committee.
H.H Mick
As usual the blog is full of borin soup recipes :-)
okay who remembers bilsland bread or Medora bread ,this might be a Lanarkshire bakery so forgive me,hh.

Seems to be a slow soup day, remember making the wee mhan a pot
of green pea soup with mint which was in vogue at the time and
couldn’t get him to eat it, but after making white lines across it with
almond slices and calling it hoopy soup he scoffed the lot lol.
