Nomme Kalju are 20 games into the Estonian league campaign, which they were in contention to retain until recently. Their unexpected win in Macedonia in the last round of Champions League qualification was the only victory in their last five outings, a run of results which sees them sitting 12 points off the pace domestically.
One of the remarkable aspects of their results is their inability to win or lose games convincingly. In the last three months, 18 or their 19 games have been settled by a single goal, or drawn. Their three cup games in that period all went to extra time.
The overwhelming takeaway from reading their form is that this team are involved in tight battles for 90 minutes in virtually every game. Even the last game they lost by more than a single goal, a 0-3 defeat, was level on 81 minutes.
I expect Celtic to get the better of proceedings tonight, but we need to finish the game strongly. Nomme will be fitter than we are and used to playing to the final whistle.

Celtic’s 4th Summer signing adds cover to at least three positions – central defence, right back and defensive midfield. Primarily a centre back, Abd Elhamed is a late bloomer with not too many minutes in his legs. It looks like a case of building overall squad strength.

Upside down square sausage?

Anywhere in Wexford to watch the game tonight?
Asking for myself.
Hail hail

Know nothing about those new names but decent clubs.
I was pleased to see no mention of Stephen O’Donnell though.
BADA
Thanks – for a pretty baffling link.
Lenny says we dropped interest in RB Simpson, as we were close with Elhamed – who isn’t a RB shoe-in.
He may deputise for Jozo, if he goes to Lille for not much more than we paid for him.
Plus, the hunt for the lesser spotted right back goes on in Switzerland, Spain, Poland. But not Ayrshire.
Nicky Hammond moves in mysterious ways eh!
Assalam/Shalom Elhamed. HH

By the time i cook it early morning it will look like a
roll with mince, but it will be delicious.
Strangely enough ye aul Lorne sausage is a much desired
commodity here in Oz , haggis and black puddin as well.
I suppose with all the Celtic clubs, pubs, Irish, Scottish,
heritage industries etc it was bound to be a winner for any
enterprising butcher lol.
But as long as the tic win i’ll happily eat it standing on my head.

Which branch of Santander and I’ll have a look
Theresa May and Arthur Askey leave No 10 for the last time.
Quite clear that Tony Ralston needs to move on.
I wish him well.
Apol; shoo-in (i have previous).
BADA
Ask your friend if he wants to buy my shares in Santander, they’re
going for a song.
A reb song .
H.H Mick
So we have replaced Lustig with another Centre Back / Right Back….. but a few years younger
Not a bad idea
I just hope he’s as good as PC Legshavegone
Ahlan wasahlan Hateem
I hope your legs are at least as good as your predecessor.
GG
I defy anyone to make a song out of that name, maybe i’ll see if
PADDYMACOZ will have a wee competition to win our much prized
CSC polo shirts.
Watch this space.

Or announce an actual right back. Signing a journeyman who’s played 5 matches in his career at right back and panning him of as a right back is just embarrassing I’m afraid.
Regardless, welcome to him and we wish him all the best.
For it’s a grand Hateem to play for…..
for it’s a grand Hateem to see…
and is he a right back…
or is he more of a centre half stroke utility maaaaan..
we don;t care what the mineshafters say
what the hell do we care
because we also know there’s another right back to go
and after that we’ll be asking for some mairrrrrrrrr……

Someone else suggested the Rupert the Bear tune for Boli.
But it works better for for…
Hatem Abd Elhamed

Git tae yir bed the tic are oan in a coupla hoors.
H.H Mick
Who said a coupla hoors; where??
The reason it’s so difficult to sign experienced full backs is that lots of teams play 3 at the back 🤫
David17
Well with such a dearth of RB’s smart and talented players will be reinventing themselves as right backs…
(Hopefully)…
HH
lets get bayo at centre on the park with OE running at them from the left side.
“…panning him of as a right back is just embarrassing I’m afraid.

Phew! I`m glad we haven`t dismissed him already.
He sounds more like a replacement for Jozo…
Jay’s the ffffffffeckin heeeuut
Agonising Christ it’d give heartburn in your arse!
Last season’s great white hope,Laffatme has been mutually consented…

Not as embarrassing, as you logging in to moan about Celtic👍
Welcome to Hatem.
We’ll come to Lovem.

It was I who suggested the Ruper version for Boli..
I bit my tongue twice trying to sing the Hatem version….

Anybody/almore/wits : read ‘The Informer’ by Liam O’Flaherty’ – just found it in Oxfam! Very slight memory from Junior cert of ‘a paroxysm of pain’ when a volunteer sniper was shot!

I imagine Levein will take him back with open arms….
