    Only saw the first half.

     

    Left back looked as if he didn’t want to be on the pitch he was awful.

     

    Right back is a trier , but will never be a Celtic player.

     

     

    Hatate was our best player.

    We fell away badly in the second half, particularly the last 30 minutes when Rapid changed their entire team. I don’t know if the subs were Team A or Team B or a mix of both, but they missed quite a few sitters, hit the bar, and Bain had one spectacular save. It could have been a lot worse, with the six footers in our defence incapable of beating any of the Austrians in the air.

    Good morning all from Govanhill. May your Sunday be full of joy and laughter.

    Good morning from a bright North Staffs.

     

     

    Tom, yes it is Sunday and today we welcome back our Parish Priest Fr Julian who has been off since last November.

    Good Morning, and a very fine one it is too on the Silvery Tay. Off to early Mass in Carnoustie, then to Arbroath Emerald CSC AGM at 11am. Fun, fun, fun. Have a great day one and all. HH

    Glasgow must be the last place on the planet where anyone cares about pre-season results and performances, especially the first few where it’s about getting your fitness right.

    For those getting all hot & bothered over yesterday’s game, the Austrian Season kicks off on 22/7/2022,

     

    In pre Season that week matters a lot,

     

    We are all crying out to give youngsters & fringe players a chance, well this is the ideal opportunity.

     

    In second half Urhoghide, Lawal & Jullian were 3 of or defenders, they were obviously under direction to play possession Football & continued to try & pass their way out of dangerous situations,

     

    So 3 lads who never played together before, who are not used to playing possession Football out of defense and in any case are highly unlikely to get much if any first team football next year concede 2 second half goals & people here are getting bothered about it,

     

    When Norwich roll into town, we should see something like our first eleven take the field, start the analysis then.

    Correct. I remember in July 2006 we played Manchester United at home pre-season and lost 3-0 to what was effectively United’s youth team. Cue panic among the support.

     

     

    4 months later Celtic defeated Man U 1-0 at Celtic Park in the CL to qualify for the knockout stages with a game to spare.

     

     

    Also, we drew away from home yesterday and were very unlucky not to win. We didn’t get hammered. Why are some people panicking when the transfer window has some weeks to run.

    Some folk are never happier than when Celtic give them something to moan about.

     

     

    The Rugby or Cricket or Formula 1 or even Tennis will have as much bearing on our season as a trial game in Vienna frankly.

    Guys,

     

     

    The thread you are posting on is :-

     

     

    Rapid Vienna v Celtic.

     

     

    It actively encourage posts, good and bad about thie game. All comments are valid even although its a pre season friendly.

     

     

    HH to all.

  25. Fred Colon on

    Just caught up with yesterday’s posts.

     

     

    Ahmad Afty, take a bow, hilarious comments.

    RV game:

     

     

    When we player with precision we looked good.

     

    When the standards dropped we were very sloppy.

     

     

    In both halves we started well.

     

    1st — Angeball / quick counters.

     

    2nd — Back to basics / playing to KF’s strengths.

     

     

    Didn’t last though:

     

    MO’R was particularly bad / loose.

     

    JMcC seemed to get lost.

     

    GT had a huge chance to lay down a marker and didn’t take it.

     

     

    RB looking to be an issue.

     

    The chance of JJ leaving is growing by the game — the KA manoeuvre.

     

    OU seems to attract ninja tackles from every team he plays against.

     

     

    MF is still nowhere the standard we need to have.

     

    Both players and shape need a lot of work.

     

     

    It is too easy for the opposition to work the flanks and develop an overload against a FB who is facing two opponents — we rely on the wingers to support the FB’s

     

     

    There needs to be support from the MF as well.

     

    Our MF structure is currently poor .. CMcG is being asked to much and he is not very good at the job.

     

     

    Cue panic when we are up against class / team with a plan and the focus to deliver it.

     

     

    B/G is the nightmare we need to address.

  29. MadMitch on

    CJ — his CFC football career swims with the fishes.

     

    Never again — he has fallen out of his shawl and he shouldn’t be picked up.

     

    LG Mk2 — over emotional..

  30. Greenpinata on

    My friends in Celtic,

     

     

    I never saw the game. None of the usual pubs in the Merchant City had it on. I did see bits of it on my phone, but not enough to form any opinions.

     

     

    Subsequently I look forward to seeing all the comments on CQN. What we did well, what we didn’t do so well .

     

     

    I do not want to read feel good comments from posters who want to be liked. 😆

     

     

     

     

    HH.

    I’m now doubly concerned after our result yesterday Port Vale lost to local junior club Kidsgrove athletic 3-0.😨

  36. Celtic Mac on

    From what I have seen so far these games should be in camera but not on camera. Fact is Celtic are making them available to a paying public when we are not even close to being able to playing competitive team football. If you want that concentrate on the Euro Womens Finals. But once you make them available you open yourself up to critical comment from supporters, re individual and collective performances, the nature of the goals we lose etc etc. That’s just the way it is*

     

    Does beg the question though, did all of those on the pitch actually graduate from the Academy.

     

    Or did some of them get kept back?

    NEW RESEARCH ON BROTHER WALFRID, FOUNDER OF CELTIC FOOTBALL CLUB

     

    In 2017 Michael Connolly, a research student at Stirling University in Scotland, was awarded a bursary to investigate the life and work of Brother Walfrid (Andrew Kerins, 1840 – 1915), who was best known as the Founder of Celtic Football Club in 1887/1888. Michael was awarded a PhD for his research in February 2022. As a result of original research in archives in Ireland, Scotland, London and St. Genis- Laval, France, Michael has been able to construct a narrative of Brother Walfrid’s life from his childhood in Ireland during the years of the Great Famine (1845 – 52), to his decision to emigrate to Glasgow at 15 years of age to seek work, his participation in night classes run by the Marist Brothers, and his decision to join the Brothers, which led to his novitiate in Beaucamps in 1864.

     

     

    Michael Connolly presents detailed information about Brother Walfrid’s early years as a teacher in Glasgow, and shows how his early experiences of poverty and lack of education led to membership of an order dedicated to the education of poor children and the alleviation of poverty. Walfrid also desired to support the Irish community in Glasgow which was struggling to emerge from poverty and discrimination. Football emerged in the late nineteenth century as a way of providing leisure and entertainment for the masses. Brother Walfrid saw the potential of football to support the Irish Catholic community and to raise money to provide meals for poor children in the East End of Glasgow. Celtic Football Club quickly met with success in Scotland and became a focus of pride for the Irish Catholic community.

     

     

    Brother Walfrid moved to London in 1892 and worked in schools there until 1906. Connolly shows that he continued to show concern for poor children, raising money to pay for uniforms. He also continued to promote football as a healthy way for these young people to use their energy and build relationships with each other.

     

     

    At sixty-six years of age, Brother Walfrid’s leadership and organisational skills were called upon when he was asked to go to Grove Ferry in Kent, where the French Brothers had established a school as a result of the Combes Laws which resulted in the expulsion of religious orders from France. He retired to Dumfries in 1912, where he died three years later on 17th April 1915. He maintained his connection with Celtic after he left Glasgow, and in his later years he received a telegram every Saturday to inform him about the results of that day’s match. He is commemorated with statues in his home town of Ballymote in Ireland, and outside Celtic Park in Glasgow, reminding the players, staff, and fans about Celtic’s original charitable purpose: to provide food for poor children. Celtic continues Walfrid’s charitable work through the Celtic Foundation.

     

     

    Michael Connolly provides a narrative of the work of the Marist Brothers in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, which provides a fuller picture than we had previously of the early pioneering Marist Brothers in Scotland and England. He successfully demonstrates that the foundation of Celtic FC was consistent with the three core features of Walfrid’s life: his religious vocation, his desire to care for poor children, and his love of sport. He could see the potential of football to provide a healthy focus for the energies of young people and, more importantly, to raise money to feed poor children. We are in Michael’s debt for this thorough and inspiring biography, as well as for unearthing a great deal of new information about the work of the Marist Brothers in Scotland and England. Michael is currently working to arrange for publication of his research so that it can be shared with a wider audience.

    I remember going to Carlisle in 69 for a preseason game where we lost 1-0. I’m sure there must have been 10,000 Celtic fans that day.

     

    It was my first visit to England – the houses around the ground were just like Coronation street on the telly 🤭

    The thing that struck me most from the game was that Ange didn’t have his pullover on.

    Time for a leisurely stroll through the Gorbals to the city centre and surveying my kingdom. I rather enjoyed watching a rerun of the match with rv. But then, I admit to being somewhat inebriated.
