The day after the opening Champions League qualifier of the season can get a bit tasty on the blog but business has been pedestrian since last night’s professional performance by the men in hoops. If you wanted to be pushy, you could point to a couple of glimpses of goal which fell Cliftonville’s way as a result of Celtic defenders being dragged out of position, but that’s about the measure of an unfamiliar defence at any time.
Congratulations to Georgios Samaras, who scored in Celtic’s first five European away games last season and obliged again yesterday. A remarkable record for a player who is never employed as a penalty box striker.
It would also be tardy not to congratulate Celtic and Cliftonville supporters on their exemplary behaviour throughout the day. After recent disturbances in Belfast there were fears that a group of travelling Celtic supporters could find trouble in the city but the casual observer could be forgiven if he thought we were in Seville again.
Maybe Belfast council should invite us over every July to spread a bit of cheer. We do football very well, in all respects.
Neil Lennon can now kick back and relax with a formality of a second and the next round not for another…. 12 days!! Maybe not. 12 days is not a lot of time to do anything in football, so every day, including match day against Cliftonville, will need to be meticulously planned to ensure we are ready to face an opponent who could well be midseason. Relax, and you’re finished in this business.

What’s the plan? I had a couple of drinks in the Beer Café in Candleriggs yesterday with my daughters then had a fabulous Indian meal in Koolba just opposite and up the street a wee bit.

As an aside for curry lovers the food in that restaurant is seriously good.

Fantastic result for the Saints this evening and not a total disaster for the Hibees either.
England women’s team getting a bit of a hammering now, 3-0 down to France, and bottom of the group. France play some good attacking football mind you.

Just back in out watching speedway :))
I just C&Pd what I saw over on TSFM but IMHO if we do not know everything that has went on now at all levelsof Scottish football questions should be asked.
Why we are saying nothing is another matter completely,that I do not understand and am gutted about ,I just hope there are reasons for it .
again sorry for delay in getting back to you.
PS more strength to you sir in your quest for answers.
Or HENrik Stenson.

Great result for St J tonight. All coefficient assistance welcome. Hope hibs can turn it around too.
On a personal front ..stopping smoking tomorrow…and stopping..is not something…I’m looking forward to…..starting.
So if my posts tomorrow seem aggressive, mind yer ain fn business :-)
I know this might sound silly and biting my nose off to spite my face but really wanted St Johnstone hammered .
Plastic Orcs showed their true colours by not clapping the Bhoys onto the park last season.
It had to be Chief Orc Wright to score as well.
Wee things like that upset me!
