MCPhail Bhoy………….. It was in a newspaper column and quoted last week in Newsnow Celtic.
Facts are Celtic didn’t deserve to loose that game on chances created
—
not sure just picking 1 stat is relevant
we also didnt deserve to lose the game on the niceness of our strip or the handsomeness of our fans
but there are a load of areas where we did deserve to lose it
Notthebus- 😂😂😂 sorry Taylor is not a footballer. I dont count him he is pish.
D :)
Assuming we agree WGS knows more about football than most…Have a listen

They made more clear cut chances than the opposition
Instead of being angry and disappointed by the humiliation of being overtaken by a cash strapped zombie club can’t we just be happy for those who have been looking forward to this outcome?
It hasn’t been easy for them and there have been many twists and turns along the way but their wishes have finally come to fruition.
##
“For us, it’s disappointing that they’re not there,” Desmond told BBC Sport.
“But that was a decision by the various clubs, a decision by the various leagues and we accept those decisions.”
“Rangers is a great football club, it has a great history and it’s unfortunate that they have been relegated,” said the Irish businessman.
“We would certainly like to contest with them every week – we believe we’ve got a better team and a better management structure.
“Rangers is a fantastic football club, it is one of the greatest football clubs in Great Britain, we’ve got to acknowledge that. But we can only look after ourselves.”
###
‘Rangers are a fantastic club with a great history. They will, in not too long a time, be back in the SPL. I have no doubt about that.
“And they’re needed for Scottish football because of their following, the size of the club and especially their history. We certainly would like to contest with them every week. We believe we have a better team and management structure.’
‘Rangers are one of the great clubs in Britain and we have to acknowledge that.
“They are a motivation for us to go along and beat them in every Old Firm match, so we miss that opportunity.”
the bottom line is that the first team squad needs de-Jockified
having so many scottish players in our starting line ups has been a disaster in recent years when we play teams who dont do that ie sevco and european teams
and whoever said earlier about mcgregor ending up at leicester – honestly, if mcgregor becomes a regular player for any english premiership team then i will buy everyone on this blog a pint, apart from the ones who frequent the loudon
How have the performances switched so quickly so much?
Notthebus
I feel it’s wrong to suggest that is a fact. I’m pretty sure ‘chances created’ aren’t mentioned anywhere in the rules of association football.
Its merely your opinion.
Furthermore, and with the greatest respect, I feel your opinion in this case is utter tosh.
(Emotional evening. Hoping I don’t come across as unkind. I just dont need any more baseless bluster tonight)
NOTTHEBUS
Chances mean nothing
Time to get Strachan back
Please, please, please let this be the bottoming out. Well beaten by mediocrity at a canter. Rescue plan please!
One unjust booking from a hun rat underlines our lack of commitment
Do you get goals awarded after the game for chances created.
There is some pish posted on here.
UNCLE JIMMY
Even a fan with the most rudimentary understanding of the game can count the chances created but lets just go with the tangibles.
possession, shots at goal, shots on target,corners..these are facts. Cant be bothered looking them up but i will bet you fiver we have much higher numbers then the opposition. that would be a fact
As for the clear cut chances, well …any fool could spot those
JK has failed big time.
Plenty of possession along our 18 yard line. Shoite.
A lone striker who is not a striker and could not hit a barn door from 6 yards.
A right back who turns back more than Michael Jackson doing the moon walk.
JK claoss failure – pish show some passion.
Waits to 10 to 20 mins from time to make more changes when at that point we are oot.
JK is a clone of NFL both are/were pish.
Dont get me started on the players I would not have any of them in my team, well big Ajer excluded.
Keepers by feck shoot at our goal and it’s in. In fact you dont have to shoot oir loanees will do that for you.😂
Jokers the lot of them.
No fight, no heart, no passion.
D :)
‘Rangers are a fantastic club with a great history’. If that quote from Dermot Desmond is accurate (I’ve no reason to believe it’s not) then he should hang his head in shame. This is a club for the best part of 100 years had an OFFICIAL policy of not signing Catholics. Swap Catholics with Black men/Jews/Muslims/Gay there would be long and sustained outrage by the world, Catholics? Not so much. This was the club on it’s centenary in 1972 whose chairman proclaimed a protestant club for a protestant people.
Desmond must know all about this but still proclaimed ‘‘Rangers are a fantastic club with a great history’. If he were to say the were our closest rivals blah blah blah fair enough but he went way beyond that, disgraceful!
Jk claps failure… Doh
some weather then

Celtic 14 – Sevco 6 👍
Splendid CSC
Notthebus
20 points behind is a fact
Beaten 2-0 today is a fact
The head to heads I’ve posted at the top of page 17 are facts
The huns shortly to be presented with the spl trophy is a fact
My opinion – we wont improve whilst we deny the facts
THEY did today what THEY having being doing all season
That is, cobbled together a comfortable win.
Contrary to popular belief, the opposite of love isn’t hate, it’s apathy.
After what we’ve seen this season I wonder how the club reconnects with the fan base.
We’ve just watched a bunch of mercenaries run off with our cash. Most have ben a disgrace to what it means to represent Celtic.
Unfortunately the next bunch of mercenaries (including the manager) will be no different (hopefully they’ll perform better but they’ll all be looking for the ‘big move’).
This is modern football and i’m sure I’m not alone in feeling taken for a mug.
BSR
Unfortunately, 5 of the 6 hun victories are from the last 8 games.
Trends matter!
UNCLE JIMMY
Sorry I have no idea what you are trying to debate.
Baffling to think we had very poor performances today from,Laxalt,Kenny,Calmac,Christie,Moi,Edouarde,average from,Turnbull,Welsh,Keeper,,and if we had taken the best of our many chances,the real sitters,could have won 4_2.Does not reflect well on an average opponent.
Edouard.His body language,effort,willingness to fight would not play for me again.Disgraceful display.I have said enough in the past about Kenny,one good pass the whole game.A dud.Apart from not covering himself in glory at 2nd goal,Ajer and Briony,only ones willing to put in a real shift.
GEEBEE
Basing it on my heart being a Celtic man…nothing else.Looking forward to our new apointements,never give up.Great challenge to see them knocked of there perch.
you have to laugh when UEFA accuse someone of self interest.

UEFA STATEMENT IN FULL
UEFA, the English Football Association and the Premier League, the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) and LaLiga, and the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) and Lega Serie A have learned that a few English, Spanish and Italian clubs may be planning to announce their creation of a closed, so-called Super League.
If this were to happen, we wish to reiterate that we – UEFA, the English FA, RFEF, FIGC, the Premier League, LaLiga, Lega Serie A, but also FIFA and all our member associations – will remain united in our efforts to stop this cynical project, a project that is founded on the self-interest of a few clubs at a time when society needs solidarity more than ever.
We will consider all measures available to us, at all levels, both judicial and sporting in order to prevent this happening. Football is based on open competitions and sporting merit; it cannot be any other way.
As previously announced by FIFA and the six Federations, the clubs concerned will be banned from playing in any other competition at domestic, European or world level, and their players could be denied the opportunity to represent their national teams.
We thank those clubs in other countries, especially the French and German clubs, who have refused to sign up to this. We call on all lovers of football, supporters and politicians, to join us in fighting against such a project if it were to be announced.
This persistent self-interest of a few has been going on for too long.
Enough is enough.
UEFA
Who created the “champions league “
Barkas will sort himself out once we get a defence
Ach well, the back of the bus is the same as it ever was, we should get used to it for a while me thinks.
Celtic will never be a true superpower because they are stuck in a wee bigoted country where they are forever tarnished by the sectarian card of the OF.
Dons game,
Barkas,
Welsh,Ajer,Biton,
Broon,Soro
Rogic,Turnbull,
Griff,Ajeti,Moi.If Forrest fit,Ajeti on bench.
Until the end of this season from hell.
Bollox to the rest.
” closed, so-called Super League.”
Unlike the non champion “Champions League”..as long s you are from a big TV audience country
Calmac burnt out. Eddie misused again and again. Ryan played out of position. No wingers. A squad that looks unfit. A beer drinking culture. Please, God – get a culture of professionalism, but then again Ronny D and John Collins were run out of the place – I think?
The worrying thing, yes there’s more to worry about is that today’s team (which someone thought was the best available ) will be nothing like our starting 11 next season, in fact most will be away I’d think Turnbull and Welsh will be the only two near the first team.
ERNIE LYNCH @ 6:51
Wouldn’t you agree that if you remove one of the ‘big two’ permanently from our game, Scottish football would ‘wither on the vine’?
The ‘big two’ account for 80% of all activity – 40% each. How would Scottish football survive on 60% – in short it wouldn’t in anything like it’s present form. The remaining ‘big one’ would clean-up for a time, in the same way we have done in the last ten years. However with no meaningful challenge anywhere on the horizon, interest in a monopoly product would wane, attendances would fall, most clubs would go part-time and sponsorship, TV contracts & other commercial activity would be diluted, or, in some cases, non-existent.
Those who have stakes in the ‘big two’ know this and would be dishonest not to acknowledge it.
If Celtic and the Ibrox club can maintain their mass & appeal in the medium term, then perhaps a move to a bigger and more lucrative environment will happen – but right now we are where we are – the ‘big two’ are necessary in order that Scottish football stays relevant.
I was shocked to see Edouard given responsibility to take the penalty. I have never seen him take a convincing penalty for Celtic. He does not strike the ball hard, he often places it at a convenient height for a goalkeeper, and he rarely places it close to the post. Against a keeper like McGregor, who saves a high percentage of penalties, he failed on all 3 counts. His “Panenka” against Craig Gordon was risky and fortunate. I would have much preferred the responsibility to have been handed to Griffiths, or Ajer, who showed Edouard how to do it with authority at the Cup Final earlier this season. Edouard’s limp effort was a disgrace to a professional football player.
