Samaras and Commons guile preferred to Boerrigter tonight

354

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.

    Hi Bhoys an Ghirls

     

     

    Occasional poster looking for a bit of info/help with celtic tv.

     

     

    does anybody know if Celtic tv will work if you are travelling to different countries?

     

    or does it only work in the country it is bought in.

     

    I’m going away round Europe for the next few months and was thinking about ordering it

     

     

    thanks in advance

  4. Domestically you can have it written into the loan contract that the player won’t play against you. UEFA prevent that kind of clause in a cross border loan agreement.

    You can get radio feed on BBC sportsound on the web or BBC iPlayer on the web

    corkcelt – the usual dodgy streams are claiming that they will show the game. Hope you’ve got good protection on your PC !

  9. For overseas tims trying to get round UK IP restrictions just use a UK proxy server and type in the URL of the site you want. Not sure if Paul allows proxy links.

  10. eternaloptimist on

    yes Kojo,

     

    I did email them, but as I was wanting to get the game tonight, they are obviously too busy to answer quickly, I thought that my fellow celtic family could maybe help me out

     

    :D

    Should work everywhere Mate as your account is personalised, drop them a wee line they’re usually pretty good at getting back to you..

    Celtic TV distinguishes between UK Ireland Channel Islands and the Isle of Man.

     

    – and the rest of the known world.

     

     

    Your subscription should follow you round the world, but sadly your question is too

     

    hard, and therefore not in the FAQ’s but I’ll find out for you, for definite.

    ..thanks very much. I’m at Butlins with young cyrenean. I tried a few places including Railway last year without success…even bumped into a few derelicts from sunny Govan!!! Never mind. I’ll still bank on Celts with a clean sheet. Thanks for info.

    If your abroad a proxy server (in this case a UK proxy that overseas tims are looking for) is an intermediate server that masks your overseas location fooling the UK website into thinking your in the UK.

    Corkcelt, @1717

     

     

    I know in Scotland loanees rarely face their parent club.

     

     

    Possibly due to parent club often still pick up part of wages.

     

     

    I can’t think of any loans involving Celtic and UEFA where the.player has been denied a game.

  18. Malc. Someone on the blog said Channel 10,

     

     

    TTTT

     

    I’ve seen it advertised, I’ve already downloaded about 6 search engines so one more won’t do any harm.

  19. Geordie I agree with you. I would say this case is fairly unique, its very rare to loan a player to a European Club and end up meeting that Club in a European tie.

  20. all this talk of proxy servers. Could you use a proxy server to buy CelticTV and then watch live games???

  21. Owen,

     

    Any chance you can send again, swamped and can’t be sure who I’ve replied to, doh

  22. clunks

     

     

    Technically you could. For example, you could use a US proxy while in the UK. I wouldn’t attempt it personally due to it being a paid subscription service if any problems occur. The club may have detection software for example to combat it.

  23. Thought I’d replied to everyone, sorry

     

    Hail Hail

     

    COME ON YOU BHOYS IN GREEN

  24. Desertbhoy,

     

    Sorry, popped oot for a bit.

     

    I’m currently soaking up the rays in Cliff Bay Hotel.
