It’s unfortunate that our next opponents had a clear midweek while we played on Tuesday, but we’re not ones for excuses around here. We have the strongest squad in the country and should have more than enough in the tank to get through our next two games.
Cameron Carter-Vickers’ fitness well be a concern for Brendan Rodgers. The central defender has nursed a hamstring injury since August; never quite fully fit and often unable to sprint. We can lament the lack of development we’ve achieved with our central defenders at a later date.

B78. On your last post I disagree 100%. If we had a strategy we would be signing players to make us better not to sit on the bench or worst the changing room.
In our current position we need first team ready replacements. Don’t throw good money after bad.
Palma and Yang for Jota ?
Downgrade for sure but that maybe fixed soon. Both showing promise and Jota may return.
Bernardo and Holm for Mooy
Maybe Barnsrdo will prove an upgrade in time. Definitely improving. Also Tomoki was starting to impact prior to injury. Holm maybe longer term. We can only play so many.
Narowki or Lagerbelt for Starfelt
This seemed a decent move for reasons mentioned but it would need Brendan to give perspective.
GG was being slaughtered on here every other week. He had one great season for a relegated team in Holland and the guy Ange really rated from SK as does Klinsman seemed a decent replacement. That one will come for me.
Johnston for JJ
Well that’s odd. 6 months ago I would have said an upgrade. It now seems we are seeing Johnston regress.
My personal view is that some support around Brendan would be good. His work ethic is not in question but help at the level of Chris D and Jack N would help. Browny might just also assist as there is huge mutual respect there.
Let’s get GMak back,LMS Season done,either on loan or permanent
Having chanced upon and just read the Craig Whyte book ‘Into The Bear Pit’ (for $3 at an Opp shop) he described them as an absolute financial basket case and says that we had the better ‘business team’ (ie suits).
Really is remarkable that a dead club can churn thru sicknotes and old soldiers to stitch together a Europa-finals team and somehow still have the spare poppy to pay EPL-level wages must surely be worth some proper reporting? They must feel this is a Gerrard-like charge they’re on to embarrass us and snatch the title.
Whether he’s a 35m flop or an undiscovered gem I don’t know, but Clement seems to be getting a decent tune out of his ragtag squad. It is possible to be the worst striker in the EPL and one of the top ones in the SPFL as that error-littered Edinburgh derby the other night showed.
They keep saying they’re coming and we keep scorning that idea dismissively. I hope to be in full-scorn mode at season’s end.
But I am very nervous with CCV (a presence and organiser) out and Welshy in our defence.
BURNLEY78…
Valiant effort, but let’s get real
Especially if we want to put our Manager on Trial…
Maik is not a Poland International, Gustaf is not a Sweden International
If they flourish with Celtic manage that, we will all be hugely grateful, especially the bhoys
Magic, Boruc, Henrik, Malaysia etc
We’ve had legends from these Nations playing for us
Don’t disrespect them by equating them to U21s!?
Hail Hail
HOT SMOKED.
Was up playing golf with Mick earlier this year, he decided we should go get a fish supper, the chippy near to your flat.
It was like a scene from the Blue Oyster Pub (Police Academy)
Couldn’t see the harbour for hairy-ersed bikers 😂
So we had to settle for a parking space on the see front.
Nice supper BTW 👍

Snatching defeat from the Jaws of victory. A few examples.
Jock stein in the early 70’s. One of the best teams in europe. Sell your best players. Jock Wallace won 2 trebles. Big jock is fired.
*just like the hun team chasing their 10 ours was tired tae and lets NOT forget the Big Mhan sellin our future captain Davie Hay because he had the audacity tae question club policy which eventually was changed but Jocks spite got rid of him which also cost us his bff, as he did Kenny for refusing to go on a far east tour.
Billy McNeil won 3 titles in 5 years. Should have won 5. Don’t back him and sell Charlie. Billy walks.
*hmmmm Charlie walked while on a tour of Canada with the national side as his heid was turned, oh and instead of Manchester or Liverpool he went tae the glamour capital of the UK, wonder why.
Davie Hay wanted Joe Mclaughlin and Pat Nevin. Souness wins the league and Davie is fired.
*Davie was let go as he was seen as too much of a nice guy and no tough enough tae stand up tae the hun bullying, and Billy who was, came back
Wim jansen stops the rangers 10 in a row. Fergus tells him his budget for the next season is £2m. Wim walks.
*the job was too big for him wtf the grim reiper was screamin at him tae put a sub on in our second last game at East End Park as he was like a rabbit in the headlights, where has he managed since then
MON wins 3 out of 5. Loses 1 by 1goal and 1 by 1 point. He now has to deal with Peter. Neil walks.
*MON like BR wanted out and so left with no recriminations but at least he recommended to us WGS
Gordon wins 3 in a row. Going for 4. Wants to sign Steven fletcher. He gets willow flood. Gordon walks.
“Oh, revisionism once again the slimy future SFA President was like with John McGinn NEVER selling any players tae us, btw his election as SFA Pres was criticized by John Collins, who said he felt there were other people who could offer greater “passion and knowledge” but that no user SFA chief executive Maxwell defended Petrie.
Oh, and for the record we only got Broonie as avid Hibbee WGS convinced him tae come tae us and no the huns ok
Neil lennon wins 3 in a row and has the rug pulled from under him by Peter. Neil walks.
*First of all, Lenny did what a lot of us do and thought the grass was greener on the other side but eventually had tae settle for lowly Bolton and should NEVER have been invited back as he left us with Ronnie, who in spite of all the sniping by the scabby SMSM and cheatin by the bonkle bigot backed mitb, won trophies
3 celtic managers who won 3 titles each walk away. They choose unemployment rather than work for Peter.
* naw they didnae wtf no one on this planet chooses the broo sometimes we just grin and bear it ok
Ronny is fired after 2 years, and we bring in Brendan. Going for 3 trebles in a row. Wants to sign John McGinn. Gets Mulumbu. Brendan is chased. Peter wants yes men.
*just explained the John McGinn scenario to you ok
His last season in charge was a disaster.
*because he wanted back tae the promised land
Last season we won the treble. Fantastic financial results. Peter returns and we may win nothing this season.
*Peter has got SFA to do with it its all DD ok
Snatching defeat from the Jaws of victory.
*aye and you are grasping at straws ok

Huns loan signing tattoos are beautiful……
The Vatican and Mary would be nice
tontine tim
Ah guess that grim reaper finally caught up with Wim……
Lagerbielke has indeed been Capped by Sweden,2 games,3 on the bench.Scored 1 goal.
Maik Nawrocki,no full caps for Poland,but capped at all under age. Maik is 22.
If 30,000+ Tims don`t renew on renewal day…the PLC will collapse.
All it took was 7 dropped points and the gutless PLC had to relent on their Virtue signalling ass licking of the MSM flavoured Green Brigade ban….0 points dropped and the GB would still be banned imho.
The PLC planted Oliver Reid`s drunken monkey with a machine gun onto CQN in the guise of a Moderator and look at the state of the place.
Boot thum in the balls if you`ve got the stuff.
Thing is…the PLC know that yeez hivny goat it…..
Just for all you judgemental Tims out there

Charlie’s head was turned?
White wanted charlie out. He wanted the £750k on offer in the celtic bank account and he wanted Charlie to be the villain.
If we had the internet back then charlie would have been a judas and a traitor and a snake eyes. Charlie is greedy. Charlie is never a celtic man. All the same nonsense that was aimed at Brendan. 40 years later and you are still being conned.
Watch the interview with charlie on the iplayer.
See some still on calling Shankland a Hun.
I have posted before,maybe some did not read,did and forgot,or too thick to take it in.
He is married to the daughter of great family friends of ours.All fanatical Tims,including his wife.Would sign for Celtic if they wanted him.Would love to play for us.
A bit like that other Hun,Calum Mc Gregor.
Kenny Dalgleish
Danny Mc Grain
Willie Wallace. Bertie Peacock.
Those kind of Huns.
Goodnight Kev
Give Galloway my regards,will you?.
I’d take shankland no problem, knows where the goals are, tidy enough technique and good hold up play
Probably better than Oh (at this stage )
Wouldn’t have to do a lot of running (packed defenses).
Would the board splash £3mill or more on a 28yesr old….
Apparently the dugs on the streets have awe been blethering something about Malky McKay has been away learning Cantonese….
you?.

*well we paid 30 grand for a 26 yea old old from the same club while we still had a fit Joe McGoals, the buzz bomb, the bear and Stevie along with a range of other goal scorers
Is he opening a restaurant?
marspapa
Shanks did well down at Ayr, up in Dundee, and over in Embra….
He’d do even better in Glasgow
And not only that he might just make into the Scotland squad for Germany, the National team lacks firepower up front, that would give him an extra incentive, to do well with us.
Now given that I’m watching Channel 4 as we speak, I think we should make those folks over in Embra, an offer they cannot refuse….
Capiche?
TONTINE TIM on 29TH DECEMBER 2023 12:02 AM
The reason I asked if the board would shell out on a 28yr old is whomever the next signing is I believe has to hit the ground running, if not the level of criticism will surpass any thats gone before…. Imo.
I don’t know when the problem between our 2 boards (Hibs and us) started……
A few players we got from Hibs…… Recently lol.
Allan
Riordon
Collins
Brown
Are there any others you can think of?

*they have falsely blamed us or stealin players from them but as i said falsely as they went out of the game for a bit due to an alleged misappropriation of funds which left them pink lint around the time the first Scottish Professional League was formed so we took advantage of players now out of contract.
But they didnae really play hard ball with us until petrie took over, don’t forget when Eddie Turnbull fell out with Pat Stanton, club skipper and descended from one of the clubs original founders, it was him that contacted the Big Mhan who had put in a few offers previously but wanted a decent player in return so we gave up Jackie McNamara sr, for him.

After Scott Brown.
Apart from Scott Allen and he wasnt a big success most names mentioned are years ago,20+ years ago.we are in different times(Bosman) and regardless of how Cellick minded a player is it dont convert into them signing,as John McGinn proved it the players choice and good luck to him at Aston Villa

*the Jmcg situation intrigue’s me, Duntocher born and raised he hail hails from a Dumbarton family who are descended form the legendary Jake Madden Father of Czech football plus his grampa was a former Chairman of our great club and I may be wrong here but chairman of the sfa so he would know which way the easter road wind blew and possibly advised him tae go south, I also don’t think the money on offer to him was a rich as it is now.
Also it should be noted we were after a couple of players who we finally signed, both from St Midden who it is led tae believe would never sell us any players, Frank McGarvey and Frank McAvennie, so mibbees just mibbees his grampa told him to go elsewhere and we would eventually come on for him, but he turned out a lot better than we all anticipated and so is out of our reach now.
Good morning all from Govanhill. Friday funtime and the day before we thrash the hun.

We can argue about the Hun choice of footballer
But we cannot ignore they are going to have a go
So can we forget all this they are skint and we are rich and we will dominate for years rubbish
We have a fight on our hands and we better support our manager in January

Right on the money!
Four sentences that render all other comments and jibes on this particular subject superfluous.
Ibrox smells a treble, a longer run in Europa League, and qualification for the re-vamped Champions League. They will spend anything they can lay their hands on and any kind of deal to achieve this.
So yes, we have a real fight on our hands. Are we up to it? based on the season to date, I hae ma doots!
