Neil Lennon seemed hurt by the performance yesterday. “Some of [the players]look like their minds are elsewhere at other clubs.
“I don’t know if they have been tapped up, I don’t know where they are mentally, but you can tell by their body language they are not with us at the minute and I’ll have to sort that out.”
“I have pulled them out of places that no-one had heard of and put them in the shop window.
“And I want payback now. That is simply not good enough.”
Those of you of a certain age might have thought that sounded a bit like:
“You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar, when I met you. I picked you out, I shook you up and turned you around, turned you into someone new.”
Of course, that girl from the Human League retorted:
“I was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar, that much is true. But even then I knew I’d find a much better place, either with or without you.”
As Human League declared in verse, talent will find its level, but only if it performs. It doesn’t matter where they came from, players who cannot excel in the SPL will drift into relative obscurity on leaving Celtic. There has been no exception to this rule.

I read long interrview with Jaroslaw Fojut in January.
He is hundred percent fit. In January he signed for Norwegian Tromso.
Talked about his past, Celtic lost perspectives and his future. He is a fighter and believe that will be playing for the big club in the future.
Me ? I would love to see Polish lad playing for Celtic but I don’t think that Celtic scouts are working here hard.

If Fanny Craddock married Sherene Nanjiani they Would have Invented Chewin the Fat..

Hampden was one of the worst. Treated us like sh*t. I never go there.

I lost a watch at the old Celtic End at CP in the 1980s.
Never got it back!
I remember there was a cop standing just a few feet away – I think it was him!
HH!!
________________________________________________________________
If you were more specific, I’m sure the watch would be returned to you. ;)
Celtic is Spooky that way.
Almost Supernatural. ;)
On another note.
Russian league just started. Spartak Mscow beat strong Terek Grozny 3:1. Movsyan had great debut scoring hat trick. New Spartak squad after revolution did better than in Autumn under Emeri.
Good night all…. Enjoyed the memories, god bless all here.
Miki67…stay strong bud.
Hail Hail
Grandson Josh won 5-1 V Pars 16s. Broke his pinky then scored so he’s happy. Did the 80mins.

celtic park and hampden are the only stadiums i been in since they were all redeveloped. took greenyin jnr to fir park earlier in the season for his 1st away day tho you could hardly call it redeveloped. its still a dump
Tallybhoy more likely to be a fellow celtic fan remember the pa announcements warning everybody that pick pockets where operating in the ground.

Only surpassed by cascarino taking out the lady cop (sorry about the oxymoron) with a slide tackle at broomfield.

Jim Chapman Annan manager. We won because we were the better team out there end of!! Good Bhoy btw!!
______________________________________________________________________
Jim Chapman is an excellent coach. I’m especially delighted as his first victory was at Ibrox. (SPOOKY) ;))

Well done Josh! Family must be very proud.
Is that 2 goals he’s scored now?
HH!!
Was anyone at Paisley when the diets fixed up. What a day.
One of the worst away grounds was Somerset Park in Ayr.
An absolute midden.
Not changed much I think.
HH!!
Yes. Never forget Jim Stewart standing
holding the ball and looking stunned as the place went mental round about him when Albert kidd scored.

Yes header last week left foot today. Said they played in abt 3″ of snow.

Enjoyed reading the blog tonigh. Some trips down memory lane. Back to work tomorrow and as the loads look icy I might go for the train so early to bed.

Thanks for that info on Jarislaw. I’m happy to hear he has recovered and is back playing football. Has he signed a long term contract in Norway?
Frankly , I’m fed up with Lenny’s rants following a poor performance
Has he ever taken responsibility for a poor team selection …genuine question …I don’t know the answer
I thought yesterday’s rant …which may have had some substance ….was unwise and the reaction of a rookie manager …poor show
As for who in yesterday’s squad wants to leave …I wouldn’t try too hard to keep any of them …the team as a whole has been fairly poor of late
If its indeed Ambrose …well…bombscare IMO …
Does anyone remember us singing “We all live in a green submarine” at Tynecastle, just after the Beatles released their “We all live in a yellow” version? Seem to remember it as a lovely summer’s day.Mind you, all the games seem to be that in my old mind’s eye, apart from when Big Yogi is ploughing through snow and sleet and bearing down on goal with a bevvy of opposing players clinging to him for dear life. One of THE great sights at Celtic Park.
GGH
Hilarious it was the only thing I remember big Tony tackling in his time with us!!
DixieDeans
Yep I was there what an incredible day that was.
tallybhoy
Some great memories from there.
Johnny Doyle hitting the ref with the ball.
Hearing we had signed he used to be a hun but he’s all right now from spurs. Although he is a hun again.
King Kenny scoring when we took 7 off them in a midweek game

Fojut had operation in England, then had rehabilitation in England and Poland . He passed medicals. Signed until June 2015.
Fanny Craddock’s old partner Johnnie saying at the end of the show when making doughnuts ” and may all your doughnuts turn out like Fannies”

Apologies for the link to the MSM

Have to say Lenny is not making his life easy with some really daft post-match comments.
1) he is never at fault despite picking the team / tactics
2) The other team never, ever, deserve to have won – well except in Europe
3) the one that really gets my goat…… Unless we have Gary in the team we won’t win. The same Gary who doesn’t want a new and improved contract, who has barely kicked a ball in the last two months.
As a way of teeing off his other players and geeing up the opposition at the same time Neil is doing a great job just now.
Beginning to wonder if HIS mind is elsewhere and hate to say that.
Time to log off.
Dear oh dear.
one of my highlights was hearing the hun result from Berwick over the tannoy during the second half of our cup tie v Arbroath. I guess they had no lights. Unusual because back then they announced the scores as A nil nil so that only folk with a programme knew what was happening.
Hope big F F was at Lennoxton for some punny ekx’s today. Came for that ball like a big lassie!!

Paul67 hinted that the infrastructure is as good as it is going to get, we are the envy of the World IMO.
I doubt we can get a better Coach than Neil to bring on these young players, Neil is the best at bringing on these young players, that was the reason he got the job in the first place.
The brutal facts are that a few of the players want away and that is why it is essential we get as many home grown players in the first team as soon as possible.
Away to watch the last episode of Spiral.
