    Keep it tight at the back Bhoys, they are getting desperate and it will open up for us.

    Rangers are.

     

     

    As they always have been. They pay lip service to cleaning up their act.

     

    A major force , with their surrogates in the Orange lodge , for the continuation of the curse of religious bigotry in Scotland.

     

    I blame those institutions , not the individuals.

     

    Sadly , Rangers have risen again. Certainly in supporter numbers.

     

    Beating them is a civic duty.

     

     

    Criticising our players , coach , CEO , Board is normal.

     

    Always been there. Letting off steam can be a healthy outlet.

     

    When it becomes a mantra , then that can have a negative impact on team performance and supporter enthusiasm.

     

     

    Yesterday was a blast.

     

    Celebrate , mate.

    Didn’t read back … but you summed it up with that one word “sweeter”

     

     

    Nothing is “sweeter” than beating your rivals/noisy neighbours/racists/cheats

     

     

    One of these days we might not win .. but until then enjoy every minute of “their” misery ….. they hate (it’s in they’d DNA) us beating them … and in this millennium we beat them frequently…. enjoy every victory and remember … next August they will that same “weearrapeople” attitude … but am afraid still no trophies given out in August

    Der Hun filth in the local today, not long back from a pick and mix sermon, claimed atmosphere at the old Rangers is nothing without their racist sectarian bile.

    Got a good feeling about the new players we have signed.

     

     

    The red card tackle on Bauer was magical.

     

    That would have brought him right into the anti – hun fold.

    A little cooler this morning after a very pleasant verdant weekend in the Chilterns…

     

     

    Great performance and result yesterday at Ibrox. Really pleased with the lhads. Physically matched them and always looked to have too much quality.

     

     

    Compare and contrast Eduardo’s sublime goal and Morelosses devine miss.

     

     

    Not sure what Rangers tactics were, what I’ve seen of them this season, they peppered the box with crosses. Whether a change of tactics or Travenier was subdued we seen little of that – through the middle legs gone Defoe and later Misser II, found our defence too strong.

     

     

    Our forwards have been superb this season but it was a strong midfield and defensive display that got us the points at Ibrox.

     

     

    It was a huge blow for them

     

     

    It was a huge week for Lenny, and the AIK and Rangers games have set us up nicely for the Season both domestically and in Europe.

     

     

    Well done Lenny and the bhoys!!

     

     

    Hail Hail

  23. Taurangabhoy on

    Had a big smile on my coupon all day. A few kiwis and expats congratulated me on our win but how could they know how I was ecstatic thinking about how dominant we were yesterday. All of the new bhoys were christened in the heat of the fire and performed magnificently. The old heads lead by example, Broonie, Calmac, Jamesie who put in a shift even if he didn’t score, Johnny Hayes took his moment well. Eddy was unplayable and Neil Francis Lennon made exactly the right moves this time to read the game perfectly. They didn’t lay a glove on us in their own midden. Now the hard work of grinding out the three points every game begins. In out niar year every game is a cup final. Keep this pace up and the buns will crumble just like their dome. Enjoy this time Tim’s, lets all do the huddle . Glasgow is green and white. Hail Hail

  24. Taurangabhoy on

    The buns tried to bully us. It was the most industrial strength football I have seen in a long time. This time out bhoys stood up to it and gave it back in good measure. Madhun was consistent with letting the physicality of the game go, thinking it would benefit der hun but it worked both ways and we won the battle comfortably. Solid and skilful. Cluj came too soon. I don’t buy into the idea that the transfer market is easy or that we should just pay the asking price, McGinn excepted. Hail Hail. Enjoy yer Monday’s go out and wind up as many buns as you can.

    Good morning from a hot and sunny Redondela , 3rd day of the Camino.

     

    Great result yesterday – well done to Neil and the Bhoys.

    Macjay, saw a pic on Social Media of John Higgins celebrating with a C.S.C. in a pub in Bangkok after the game, just wondering was it the gig you were at. I used to be a big Snooker fan but whilst my interest has cooled a bit, I’d still watch & support John for obvious reasons.

    School run then watch the game again for me

  32. corkcelt on

    At least I think it was Bangkok, as I was in celebratory mood at the time my memory might be frazzled, I was also looking at celebrations in a CSC in Dubai so I might have them mixed up but I’m 90% sure John was at the Bangkok one.

  33. 21-5-79 🍀 on

    Just watched highlights on the BBC website, the Huns are made up of a few old timers, a couple not bad loanees, and the rest are kiddie on hard men (Jack & Jones)… Well done Celtic, beautiful Sunday, happy Monday!

    SFtB’s @ 31ST AUGUST 2019 3:12 PM,

     

     

    “It certainly was great for business with our fans. Who knows how long theirs would put up with it? But it was always going to change to become more competitive and, outside of our most paranoid thoughts, it is not an indicator that we have “allowed” them to become better.

     

     

    The new club spent 4 years getting 3 promotions to make it into the SPFL. Even though they were packed with internationalists and players stolen from other clubs (they could not have afforded them if they had not dumped their debts) they were still not SPFL standard when they first arrived in the top division. We got to play with them for a bit and enjoyed the humpings . They came up in 2016/17 and have now had 3 seasons to become battle hardened to SPFL standards. They still have a 50k home crowd to fund better buys than our previous rivals (Aberdeen and Hearts) could manage with their lower income so it was inevitable that they would become relevant again.

     

     

    They actually beat us on pens in a semi whilst still a Championship club and they won two of the fixtures last year. A GoD does not guarantee that you will win every game, it does not guarantee that you get to hunskelp every time.

     

     

    So what precisely was your point? I answered your conclusion because, as I explained in my post, I found Paul67’s two statements quite understandable and quite factual. It is the conclusion that there is collusion to get Sevco competitive that I find interesting and controversial, and, I think, I am still allowed to respond to the things I find interesting as you are quite capable of dealing with what you find “interesting”.

     

     

    Did you believe that Sevco have been irrevocably confined to an irrelevant position in Scottish football? I certainly did not. And if you did not believe that, why do you need to invent collusion as the means to have made them relevant?

     

     

    Those of us who saw what Larsson & Brattback did in 1997/98 know that a so-called “weaker” team, one that has become accustomed to losing, can make the breakthrough and overtake a seemingly invincible squad. The 97/98 process can happen to us and it could have happened already but it hasn’t. We can waste our lives in fear of them doing this to us, and sharpening our pitchforks and oiling our lamps for the subsequent witch-hunt, or we can enjoy what we have been given by this generation of players and what they have yet to give.

     

     

    That’s a choice every one of us faces.”

     

     

    I’m not at all sure my view was, they wouldn’t get better, pretty sure it was the opposite, that they would improve. The main reason for the arguement of building on success in June 2018 after that magnificient double treble was to improve in Europe and achieve UCL qualufication.

     

     

    As I’ve stated many a time, that would ensure we were better than Rangers… they could improve all they wanted but they’d still have to mind the gap.

     

     

    We went in a different direction in the summer of 2018 and have continued in the same vein in the proceeding transfer windows.

     

     

    This scaling back has also happened in our managerial, coaching and recruitment staff and we have seen the consequences.

     

     

    I stated some while back my expectations had been managed and it was what it was and I’d be backing the team and that’s what I do.

     

     

    So what precisely was your point?

     

     

    Well my point was this, the hubristic tone that Paul67 was espousing a couple of seasons ago has recently been replaced by an altogether more pragmatic tone. I invited CQNers to make up their own minds about this, not putting words in other peoples mouths as you have a tendency to do.

     

     

    I said nothing of collusion in this regard, in fact the only time that I’ve noticed that charge against Celtic was in relation to the SFA, SPL and certain Clubs, colluding to ensure that the punihhment for industrial scale cheating was minimised and contained and that Rangers be facilitated in it’s resurrection.

     

     

    That’s my problem with the GoD confusion, the original tongue in cheek gibe, re our “supremacy” over the original Rangers was, to my mind at least, funny and a craic. Not so funny regards Sevco Rangers, for many of us after the ice cream had melted and the jelly gone moldy there was a bitterness to our just desserts.

     

     

    No collusion highlighted in terms of competition on the field. More cat & mouse.

     

     

    CQN had a rare guest poster on for the lead article (January I think) where a financial whizz explained how we could keep ahead of Rangers by the fact we can always outgun them financially. It they are coming close, as they may do this season (it will depends on consistency as well as the results of the old firm derbies) we can re-assess and power away in January.

     

     

    My “Point” is this, “old firm think” should be nowhere near our Club’s strategy, it’s risky and has already seen us getting ejected from the UCL.

     

     

    We should be aiming to consolidate and build on a consistent squad to be the best we can be, a good third tier UCL side.

     

     

    That wasn’t to be, so I can live with that, this unambitious, risk averse board are not going to put me off supporting the Club I’ve always loved.

     

     

    Days like yesterday will always give us huge joy… that’s what being a Celt is really all about.

    Exactly… another thing that I don’t think is getting mentioned in the last few minutes Madden the former season ticket holder didn’t give Ryan Christie a foul when he was clearly bundled over at the Huns byline .. then when Alfredo cant score against Celtic dived on the skyline Boaby couldn’t blow his whistle quick enough to give the Huns a chance to get the ball in our box … fine margins ? Nope blatant cheating
