    :-)

     

     

    Don’t start back till Tuesday and am off the next 4 Mondays so easing myself back in gently, the good lady started back at 6am this morning so I appreciate the extra couple of days

  2. Some people don’t do irony.

     

     

    “Back the Manager” banners on Saturday.

     

     

    Manager says Boyatta will play for us again.

     

     

    “No way!!!” Get him taae F***, Brendan!!!” all over Twitter on Sunday.

    Some of you do realise CQN is NOT the real world and posts are opinions (being kind here) and not facts, huh ?

    Canny really sleep last real night of my holidays so had a wee squint at the “posts” during the game, a thing I always avoid….

     

    A bit of an eye opener some posters more interested than everything apart fae the fitba

     

     

    Am not saying our fans are perfect and I know for a fact we have total idiots in our support but the “scatter gun” posts on CQN for me shows what posters show their true (blue) colours that’s when it’s hard for them to try and be reasonable :-)

     

     

    ====================================================

     

     

    You (don’t) want to hear the comments at the game then mate. By your measure, there’s Huns all around me in 144.

    Italiabhoy 9.46am

     

     

    Fickle fitba fans :-)

     

     

    Just watched a bit of MOTD then some highlights of our game, if Forrest & Gamboas interplay for our 2nd & 3rd goals were on MOTD the pundits would be raving about the two of them

    Big Cup Winners 9.48am

     

     

    A few seasons back my season ticket was lower 109 on line with 18yd box, the first game of every season was always nerve wracking to see what rocket(s) I was going to landed beside… although in fairness there were probably many many others hoping I might not be back as well :-)

  7. BIG-CUP-WINNERS on

    Gerry

     

     

    The club should allow fans to highlight these dudes and relocate them to the Upper tier gulag.

     

    The further they are away from the pitch, ie players the better.

     

     

    Not too sure where to relocate the bandwagon herd to ? Obviously, not within earshot of the gulag.

    The average adult human brain has about 100 billion cells.

     

     

    There are at least 2 trillion galaxies in the observable universe.

     

     

    There are 1690 gazillion The Rangers shares.

     

     

    Not a lot of people know that.

    We’re being linked with Wolfsburg’s Dutch international centre half Jeffrey Bruma. He played at Chelsea when BR and Congleton were there and he went to Hamburg when Congleton was Technical Director.

     

     

    =====================================================

     

     

    If he makes mistakes then he’s no good for the Tic. Our “support” is too fragile to have a centre back who makes mistakes.

     

     

    As a minimum he must have 100% pass completion rate.

  10. GFTB…

     

     

    My bhoy went to Magaluf with a few bhoys from the Brig last night, got back at 6 bells.

     

    He’s still kipping rough as a badgers arse.

     

     

    He’s on a learning curve.??

  11. Gerryfaethebrig on

    Sipsini

     

     

    My nephew phoned me during the week from the Ponsa would be hilarious if it was him & his pals your bhoy was partying with :-)

  12. GlassTwoThirdsFull on

    Strange one yesterday. Seemed to be the usual slow tempo play, lacking in intensity.

     

    Then seemed to spring into life after Partick scored (poor defending yet again). McGregor came on and got the ball moving quicker and – more significantly – Gamboa starts making runs ahead of the ball. Good combination play with Forrest. And guess what – two goals! Who’d have thought!!!

     

    More of this please, Celtic. So easy to defend against when everything is slow and nothing is happening in front of the ball.

  13. mullet and co 2 on

    I’m hoping the situation with Boyata is a safe ground for the player, his agent and the club to get to the point he can be sold at a fair price. At the moment the actions of the player and his agent have wiped £3m or more from his value inside a week. The English transfer window closing doesn’t help with his value in the least so he is no longer worth £9m and would be worth say £6m to a European club. His strike last week meant suitors could offer a lot less. I hope the player has been reminded of his contractual obligations and the club have made public statements to fulfill theirs…then he is sold and we buy a replacement.

     

    We desperately need an enforcer or aggressive player in the midfield. The reaction to yet another assualt on Brown from his colleagues was disappointing. A Celtic player will get seriously injured if we don’t take these incidents seriously.

     

    A colleague for Brown would to remind team mates that it’s a team game would be paramount aside from a Centre Half. We are back in time with players leaving the foot in or launching head but or elbow. There is a concerted and joint effort from other clubs, managers and their friends in the press to employ sleekit Walter Smith and Souness style tactics. Think Rangers 2008 only every other team gets away with trying to seriously injured our players. The tackle on Brown yesterday was a potential career finisher.

  14. `Rodgers said: “We’ve had a couple of targets we haven’t been able to get.

     

     

    “But I’ve always had a very, very good relationship with the board and that’s the same, even though some people will try to dismantle that.

     

     

    “We want to improve the team and we’ve got ’til the end of August to do that.

     

     

    “If we don’t, I work with the talented players we have here.” `

  15. Izaguirre played well yesterday i thought. Bigger tests for him lie ahead when asked to defend against better quality, but i thought he strolled it yesterday. It was noticeable how he passed more positively than KT who seems to pass backwards now quite frequently. One particular pass yesterday to Griffiths in the first half was sublime. He wasn’t shy to kick it long either. Izzy had been there and done it with us, knows exactly what we are about and will always go to the end. So many times in his Celtic career he got down the wing and put in a cross that got us a goal when we needed it. A very astute signing and all round good guy to have in the dressing room.

    This morning’s quick quiz:

     

     

    Who actually are Celtic’s biggest detractors ?

     

     

    A) The SMSM

     

     

    B) The Celtic support

     

     

    c) The Huns

  17. The BBC:

     

     

    ” Celtic scored twice in the last 12 minutes to avoid a shock against Partick Thistle ”

     

    Likewise, on teletext, they had something like ` Celtic avoid defeat`.

     

    Is there any other team in British football who have a victory described as ` avoiding defeat`?

     

     

     

    This kind of reporting is why posters such as myself are so loathe to criticise Celtic online and why I , at any rate, take exception to the seemingly jocular ` Happy clappers` label.

    Enough of that ….

     

     

    Quotes are no good when there are plenty of more people who “know” what Brendan actually meant :-)

     

     

    Aff oot to drop wee yin at ma sisters to stop her moaning at me about watching the fitba (Sevs) … her words “what are you going to watch them for, thought you didn’t like them, eh”

  19. BCW

     

    That is a difficult one……and my answer says a lot about many in our support.

     

     

    FWIW worth, I would say the order you put them in is also my answer to the question.

  20. Back to Basics - Glass Half Full on

    Auldheid – your post last night re the twitter chat was great.

     

     

    “Generate more light than heat” – a wonderful sentiment.

     

     

    The Boyata situation can’t be handled emotionally.

     

     

    For every 20 drivers breaking the speed limit one gets caught.

     

     

    Probably the same odds for professional footballers working their ticket.

     

     

    NAE luck DB

     

     

    IF he can help us into the Europa League, use him and then punt him.

     

     

    Hail hail

  21. From my 11:03 link, I would say this is key:

     

     

    ” “…. I know he’s a good guy. Everyone makes mistakes and, even though it’s not the way in modern life, people need a chance to redeem themselves.”

    Excellent post and one which echoes my own thoughts entirely . If Izzy had been an entirely new player to us making his debut ,we would think we had won a watch.

  23. GlassTwoThirdsFull on

    We’re being linked with Wolfsburg’s Dutch international centre half Jeffrey Bruma

     

    —-

     

    Is he a sweeper by any chance? :-)

  24. Back to Basics - Glass Half Full on

    Hot smoked – elements within BBC Sport Scotland are part of the campaign to undermine Celtic.

  25. It’s only just begun:

     

     

    – Fighting with Wigan fans

     

    – Racially abuse kids in Macedonia

     

    – 2 Croatian fans stabbed

     

    – Throwing glass bottles at St Mirren and Aberdeen fans

     

    – Fighting with police in Slovenia

     

     

     

    SMSM all over Celtic csc

  26. Back the Manager

     

    or Back to Mediocrity….

     

     

    In Brendan I trust….as he famously replied to the sneaky BritishBC reporter…..

     

    “there was no growing into Celtic.I was born into the Celtic”…..

     

     

    there is a saying in German ..”Augen auf..lass licht in Kopf”

     

     

    open your eyes ,let light shine into your head…

     

     

    smiley in auldheid I also trust thing

  27. I see can is in the let’s blame your fellow supporters for everything more.

     

     

    After all it can’t be lawwell and the boards fault that they call us criminal racists, give our details to the cops illegally, allow the support to be constantly vilified for minor incidents, ban people with no evidence of wrongdoing, pay themselves massive bonuses whilst not investing in the team, aid and abet criminality, racism and corruption, offer freebies etc to bloggers as long as they remain on message, allow the club to be cheated and probably quite a few more i can’t thunk of right now.

     

     

    Naw it’s the supporters fault.

     

     

    Duh!

    Sorry for delay in replying. Gone to Mass and just reading back now.

     

    I think there is a player in Jack. He does some really good things a lot of the time and, at other times, seems to be too slow to react to situations, Imo.

     

     

    Two instances from yesterday were at the goal when it looked to me that he should have been quicker and tried to put a block on the shot and also when he seemed to be going round un circles with the ball at his feet in our half, almost losing it.

     

     

    I think he needs good coaching in playing his position and I am not convinced that he is getting it.

  29. Back to Basics

     

    I agree. I feel we have a better chance of getting our fellow supporters to see that than we have of changing the BBC.

     

     

    BSR

     

    What does this mean:

     

     

    ” Sevco ‘season ticket holders’ door stepping Dedryck?” ?

  30. Boyata should never play for us again, refusing to play should be a step too far. However, when Simunovic refused to play in a qualifier last season (Astana?) he wasn’t punted and has played many games since. He wasn’t so a precident was set.

     

    The manager has to talk up the possibility of him playing again, if he said he was finished at the club his rapidly decreasing value would virtually disappear. Hopefully we still get £3-4m from Sevilla or anyone else who’s interested.

     

    Jeffrey Bruma, if he’s over his injury problems, would be a massive upgrade on Boyata and any of our other centre halfs. Hopefully there’s some truth in this rumour.
