Samaras preparations need a rethink

875

Georgios is hugely important to Celtic on Champions League duty.  His presence and experience is crucial, but his ability to hold the ball up, often the subject of frustration for some in SPL games, is fundamental to Celtic’s chances of playing at this level.

Georgios Samaras hamstring injury, coming late in the first half against Kilmarnock, is a carbon copy of the injury he picked up late in the first half against Berwick Rangers two years ago this month.  Hamstrings mostly to go early in games, or early in the second half, before players muscles are properly warmed and stretched.  It is unusual for a player to get well into a game, when limbs should be stretched, before picking up this kind of injury.  Time for a rethink of the player’s preparations on cold days.

I only saw around 10 minutes of the Scottish Cup tie at Tannadaice this afternoon but was unfortunate to witness Ian Black twice make an offensive hand gesture, once apparently aimed at the Dundee United support.  If he was wearing green  I’m sure he would be dealt with.

    with a name like Gordon you should know :-) i am sure you are aware that it does exist and you can dance in the streets of Raith inspite of the joke which suggests otherwise

  8. It would be excellent if there were some appreciative Turnbull Hutton banners at the game tomorrow.

     

     

    I’m usually the most cynical of people when it comes to wealthy people and their motives and their allegiances to secret societies. I think TH was very genuine in his proclamations.

    From what I can gather, some announcement will be made early doors Monday when the Stock Market opens.

     

     

    It is not likely to be good for the Sevcovians as weeminger has suggested.

  12. Mag 7

     

    Spot on.

     

    Can you guess where i was

     

    during the penalty kick shoot out ?

     

    Money goes to charity.

  13. I’m signing off for the night. Don’t want to dampen all the fun & mirth but last Saturday we all laughed our heads off at Sevco but got a kick in the baws ourselves come Sunday. Must admit I did a lot of laughing today so hopefully tomorrow isn’t groundhog day. totalgroinprotectioncsc.

  14. Goodnight & God Bless

     

     

    Hooper & Stokes up front, Commons back to left Mid where he is most devastating.
