Malmo quickly followed up their best result of the season against Salzburg with a 2-1 win over top of the table Gothenburg. They remain four points off the pace but whatever form issues they have had in recent months appear to be resolved.
Champions League football was a harsh experience for Malmo last season. They qualified after beating Salzburg 3-0 in the play-off round, coincidentally the same score they beat the same opponents by in the last round. While Salzburg went on to top Celtic’s Europa League group, Malmo lost home and away to Juventus and Atletico Madrid, winning their only points in a home win over Olympiakos.
I’m sure Celtic will have scouted yesterday’s game in Malmo and will have learned more about the home team than Malmo learned about Celtic during yesterday’s stroll in the park at Firhill. We will have seen them at their best, they will have seen us scarcely breaking sweat.
Ronny will have an idea of the extent of the challenge ahead. Malmo might not be a match for Juventus or Atletico but they know how to play European football. We will all have an important job to do at Celtic Park next week.

McInnes thinks John Collins has a lot to say ‘for an assistant manager’.
Think most people would hold John’s position in higher esteem than manger of Aberdeen.
—————————————
My thoughts too….sorry for being so arrogant/honest .HH
PFAyr. Re McInnes, I take the opposite view.
He’s a F*nny!
St. Stivs
thanks. I am going over anyway, flights paid for.
Going to game with uncle and cousin who live in Glasgow, they are gonna try get tickets.
Wonder what McInnes’ own assistant thinks about his views on AMs?
25 year old The Glenlivet is better than Scottish Leader;
Enrico Caruso is a better tenor than Alfie Boe;
Champions League Footballers are better than SPFL footballers.
JJ
McInnes is a zombie….no surprise there.
He cant manage himself, never mind a football team.
Total halfwit

You missed oot ….City Cash tailors better than Dees !
Apart from all the other nonsense, JC`s comment attracted the very predictable ` pin it up in the dressing room` rubbish. If Celtic decided to do similar with all the negative reports we face, our players would be the best read in the game.

I didn`t want to be too obvious 0:-)
I saw McInnes at Glasgow Airport last week.
Far too tanned for someone living in Aberdeen.
I’m in the, “he’s a dick” camp.
How many goals has he scored against Brazil?
JJ
We’re gonna need a bigger door!
JJ, don’t give PL ideas, he wouldn’t have to buy wallpaper!
This season has hardly started but could we make a list of the anti-Celtic stories so far?
Craig Gordon should have had a red card V Ross County;
Mikael Lustig should have been penalised V Thistle;
John Collins castigated for stating the obvious.
Those are the three which spring to mind for me. Anymore?

According to Malmo, they are better than us….and they are more or less through.
Their manager has been bumping his gums, he was hoping to draw us.
I hope he keeps it up.
HH
Censorship is a bad thing….booo
TGM
Where is that coming from?
Doc,
I was going to mention wallpaper but didn`t as I didn`t want to give PL ideas. I didn`t expect someone else to mention it instead!
JJ
McInnes is a Fud!
In a 20 year playing career he won 1 (one) Scottish Cup, played in 7 European games and won 2 caps…………….. not one major league title.
……….enough said!
random daft fact of today ……………
stevie fulton and roy keane share today as their birthday.
fulty born in 1970, keano in 71
Derek McInnes – dick or f*nny?
If it were possible to be both he could always go and shtup himself.
If I was JC or RD…..i would refuse to speak to people who obviously have an anti-Celtic agenda.
Hun journos….don’t talk to them
HH
VP…
Mc Murtries next to the City Cash Tailors was the real deal… Real zips and real pockets ;)
Jjhs
Sorry…i was referring to the textual gymnastics of the scoddish meeja

Heard you’ve still got them hingin up in wardrobe:O)
VP…
I did have until acgr stayed over, heard he’s the coolest looking bloke in the backwater now.
According to jungle Jim :)
John Collins is a big headed prat.
He just can’t help himself.
What he said everybody knows.
So why say it?
He can’t help having to show other people that he thinks that he is superior to them.
TT
May the seaghulls of Eberdeen rise above the skies and dump on McInnes’ tan.
Tgm,
I read the Malmo managers comments.
You’d get a job with oor msm the way you are conveying them on here.

Wee ACGR….Suits you sir! :O)
One nil citeh
St Pauli 1-0 against Gladbach :-) , on BT sports Europe
No bad chant from the Southamton fans for Big VIC but still not as good as ours not to sell Paddy.

Goat or sheep for Deek?
JC is a winner. We prefer losers in working class Scotland.
Geordie Munro
How so…..did he not say that….Malmo are a better team than Celtic, and that he wanted to get Celtic in the draw.
Enlighten me please…did I misunderstand?
Beefy,
Agreed.
There is a tweet on the etims twitter page from Jonathan Burns.
A laboratory at the Beatson Clinic at Gartnavel Hospital for cancer sufferers has been named the Tommy Burns laboratory.
What a terrific honour for Tommy’s family and a lasting memorial to a great man taken from his family at too young an age.
His loss will help others fight that horrible condition.
Tgm,
Not in the official article I read.
He said celtic were the perfect draw and the way we play suits them.
No mention of them being better than us and as good as through.
Mibby I’ve missed the worst bits.
VP…
My ma worked in City Cash away back then, her commission payed for our clothes, seems we’re going back the way.
The wee man was fair chuffed when I threw in a pair highwaisters and slade socks…bless him. :)

Its all over the net…quick search will suffice.
