Neil Lennon will begin to get his players back at Lennoxtown tomorrow after, what for most of the first team, has been a two week international break. For many of the established players, he’ll be hoping for a clean bill of health, but with trips to Tynecastle and Milan ahead, the manager will be keen to spend time with Teemu Pukki.
Teemu played 92 minutes for Finland in Tbilisi last night so will get little time on the training fields before Celtic’s next two games. Tynecastle itself may provide the most effective training opportunity ahead of Wednesday’s game at the San Siro.
Delighted for Gordon Strachan, who has already caused an unlikely upturn in Scotland’s fortunes. He is a better coach and tactician than he ever got credit for. His Key Performance Indicators (winning leagues, knock out stages of the Champions League) were achieved in spades, but there was a soft underbelly which always seemed to undermine progress. Curiously, his Celtic team went 15 months without keeping a clean sheet away from home in all competitions, despite winning the league in both seasons this run spanned.
The one game during this period of note was the 1-0 defeat to Milan in the Champions League knock out stage; the only game Celtic completed 90 minutes without conceding. If Neil Lennon can replicate this achievement he stands an excellent chance of a second successive memorable Champions League campaign.

No matter how much we moan and groan, thems will be back.
Thems will do their three step rise to the spfl.
That is when their horrid support will realise getting there, was the easy part of their comical journey.
Their team will be a shadow of their cheating days and will struggle.
That is when the realisation will kick in and we will see the hun of today is no different from the hun that walked away in the eighties.

When they were in their throws of their 9iar, there honestly wasn’t any light at the end of the tunnel, they had everything, money to burn, other people’s money, but money all the same.
What’s to say, some arab that has money to burn won’t come along, stranger things have happened.
Scottish football, the clubs should have killed them when the chance was there for the taking, scottish football will regret not taking that chance.

Why are the boys queuing outside the ticket office? Have I missed something?
A cup of T perhaps >}

BBC Trust will receive submissions of evidence supporting the truthful @bbcjimspence assertion that many people hold the view Rangers died.
Looks like the huns have cried wolf once too many…
Its funny..the jim spence comment has created so much hysteria and interest both inside and outside scotland, that the ‘new club’ debate has been brought into the open again.
The more attention brought to his the better imo as the zombies would prefer it just went away altogether an they can get back to their deluded belief they are the same club.
Never let them forgot they died
B-)
I’ve just realised the CL public sale starts on Saturday morning ! Jings those bhoys deserve them if they are staying outside the ticket office until then.
Probably could do with a cup of tea , or something stronger

Gedhed7, I don’t disagree with a single word of you first paragraph.
On your second paragraph, why would our club remain silent in the knowledge that we will be murdered come the day?
On you third paragraph, who can blame them? If your first two paragraphs are to be regarded as plausible then every Celtic fan can blame them for their silence. If they’re staying silent now to put off a shitstorm they think is coming our way then by your logic their current behaviour is nothing short of cowardice resulting in a deferral of the murder and mayhem to come.
Your fourth paragraph is the clincher and I’m sure it will be for a vast number of Celtic supporters of my generation. If the cheating hun do make it back to compete with us whether in a cup game before they reach the top league or in the league itself, and our club portray the opponents as “rangers” on a match programme, official site or on TV then I expect thousands will turn from Celtic.
In short, Celtic saying nothing will have no impact other than deferring the inevitable of what you are saying in the first part of your post.
Good god, that’s pretty depressing. Our club should have led from the front on the hun demise and killed all this bullshit dead. Maybe our silence, as very well pointed out to us by visiting Aberdeen supporters is the reason no other clubs took a stance against them.

You going to Barca ?

pf totally agree getting fed up with sevco getting away with everything next thing sfa and msm will try is winners of the sought after ramsdens cup go straight into the spl leading to all potential sevco opponents being threatened by the mob turnbull hutton style since their demise they have got worse if that was possible

Boys – just checking, like.
Me and the weans are in the home cup ticket scheme, got the Shacked Up Lager Shandy (copyright somebody else) tickets through the post automatically. I haven’t received my CL tickets yet, so am still mildly nervous.
Has everyone else got theirs, and it’s just me they have forgotten?????

thomthetim,
thanks for posting that article from tsfm, well worth the read. I believe Charles Green and Craig are somewhere in Monaco sipping martinis and smoking cigars laughing about the whole mess that is Sevco, and waiting for their next move.

So I’m not panicking , yet.
My SB never arrived and had to get a replacement from the ticket office – now I think my postman is a Hun

Their brand is toxic at the moment, probably why an Ex-convict is their major shareholder.

TSFM site is brilliant for the quality of posters, from many clubs, who are up to speed on the scam.
Ecojohn is up there with the best, including Barcabhoy, Auldheid, BRTH, Allyjambo and many others.
At times, I feel that here in CQN land, we are sleepwalking towards a zombie revival.
Although, in the early days, this was the place to be for information.
As time passed, it required the involvement of ither supports.
More could be done in that direction, but the SFM blog is doing a great job in refusing to let them away with anything.

I would be of the glass half empty thinking, anything else is a bonus.
We will see what transpires, but I honestly don’t have great faith for the future, it pains me to say that, but it’s the way I feel.
As others have said we should be cock a hoop just now, but I honestly can’t see any signs of that, why is that ?
Apathy has a great deal to do with things, the huns are in div whatever, who cares about them is the cry, they won’t be there for long, and they will want revenge, and we will be who they are after, that mi amigo is a FACT, a hun fact, but a fact all the same.
I honestly don’t want to feel like I do, but I do.

I agree tsfm has quality posters, maybes cos they are supporters of differing clubs helps.
CQN is sadly turning into a redtop in many ways, as I said in another post, things always turn full circle in life.
I have been barred from RTC and TSFM, RTC for saying that I thought they would get away with the tax case, and my reasoning was the masonic cabal, they split their sides, still, I was proven correct, tsfm for daring to mention scottish referees and the power they have over the game in scotland, I know I am right on that one.

===================================================
I think it`s more that season ticket holders can get another THREE packages each (at the higher price) and they go on sale tomorrow. Whatever is left go on sale on Saturday to the general non ST public.
Not much chance of many being left.
I’m watching The Chronicles of Riddick and the Necromongers bear an uncanny resemblance to the hun follow followers, although nobody has shagged a goat yet.
