You and I both like to see new signings introduced but it would be an enormous gamble to throw Derk Boerrigter into the fray tonight. The player is unlikely to have trained with his new teammates, will know little about Celtic’s systems, and while Neil Lennon will have watched Derk many times, the real discovery period will be in the weeks to come. A place on the bench for Derk will be fine.
I’ve been a bit confused by the Moh Bangura debate; can we really care that much if he plays, I mean, we’re not talking about a guy who scored as many goals for us as Daryl Murphy here. The discourse sounds not dissimilar to some of the ways Jock Stein would manipulate events ahead of a game. Put the opponent on the back foot from the off, cover all bases.
Key players for Celtic tonight, as always when it comes to Europe, will be Georgios Samaras and Kris Commons. They have the maturity and guile to know how to deliver, but our defence will need to be alert to what will be the superior fitness of the Elfsborg players, especially late in the game.

“1 meg and that is a luxury”
It certainly is if that Meg be Fox or Ryan;)
Right, pre match warm up beckons. I’ll start with a gentle gathering of dishes from around the kitchen, wipe around the surfaces, build up to loading the dishwasher, sweeping the kitchen floor and then get right in to running around the house tidying up before cutting a few sticks and filling the coal scuttle.
All the while the FIFA 13 will be loading and the beer chilling in the fridge. Should be ready for some good pacing up and down and ensuring a good, injury free performance as a long distance Hoop on a European night…….. it’s much easier just being there….
Anyway, talking of warm ups, does anyone know if Celtic invested in the Hot Pants that Paul 67 suggested last season. He claimed they would prevent injury in players….. Hot Pants eh? See modern footballers? Big jessies!

Arrrrrggghhhh :0)
Fleagle 1888 yes, know macs in jlt very well.. Checked earlier but no luck.
Re tic tv.. Thought it didn’t show European games.
I would give ANYTHING to be outside CP right now!
Will take any win but 3 from Commons Sammi and Stokes to no reply would have me delirious.
Mon the Bhoys!
To whom it may concern,
The Swedish commentary team will be in the first row 5 mins before kick off…
football streaming info got few streams for hoops,any probs with ads,download i.e ad blocker.
At the game. Teams practising shooting. 2 stand out as needing more practice. Balde and Bangura.
Hope I don’t regret saying that…
Paul, I think we need to be careful 1st 15 mins.
Blonde Swedish physio gets biggest cheer of the day
Around 80 % of the ball 1st half,in our own half.Penetration is sadly lacking.Sammi trying his best but support not there.Looking for a sharper display this half.
