There are several parts of Tuesday’s performance which could be improved upon, parts which will be exposed by the rigours of Champions League football, but we looked like an experienced European team, one who could go away from home, roll with the early season uncertainties, but still have enough in the tank to win comfortably.
For the last couple of years we have watched a team mature while Neil Lennon has continued to add young blood to the squad. Fraser Forster has become an adept shot-stopper, puncher and kicker-with-both-feet. Joe Ledley has developed into a disciplined anchor in midfield while Adam Matthews, Victor Wanyama and Beram Kayal have progressed even quicker than I am sure the manager expected.
Last season’s Europa League campaign contributed significantly to the development. The team seemed to grow a few inches during the home win over Rennes, which propelled them onto the league title. A Champions League examination will present no fears but will expedite progress.
We could be on the verge of the first sustainable, successful, team development plan in 40 years, one that delivers titles, significant progress in Europe and lives within its means.

You mean Swansea getting Ki for a Sung…..Yeung.
Hail Hail
Estadio
big Joe
hope you are cruising the med soon…
had to nip out to cut my hair.. I knpw i was away for an hour, why?
“As for team investment rules go,Celtic will continue to spend all income earned over any business period..Click..”
Well call me George Smiley….but I often get suspicious when I here such mantras repeated with almost ‘robotic’ precision..
;-)
Listening to Radio4 Extra’s Vintage Sci-Fi Series..Charles Chilton’s “Journey Into Space”….’Lemmy’ is the ‘fall-guy’ as usual…..this time,he is wandering about on one of Saturn’s Moons….having been brainwashed by the mysterious aliens from Planet Zog…to thinking that he was still on Earth….and the Big Huge Beetle-Thingies running about were just ordinary sheep..
I reckon Casa Brennan would benefit from a ‘sweep’ by security experts looking for ‘bugs’…and most particularly, any ‘foreign’ broadcasting devices…like those ‘special’ cassette-players….which play recordings to the unsuspecting occupants…..at frequencies just above the normal range of human hearing..so the individual has no awareness of any sound….but nonetheless,the ‘message’ is received and retained by the subconscious….in a subliminal manner..
Back in the day….when I was ‘sleuthing’ about for the ‘Circus’,the KGB were using these very same techniques…against their unsuspecting targets…
Powerful technology indeed…The dulcet tones of Peter Lawwell …on continuous loop 24/7…is bound to have an effect on the average individual…”Celtic will continue to spend all the income they earn in……Click! “.
Now who could be responsible for ‘planting’ such a sinister device ??
Peter Lawwell………..?
Irvine’s Desperados..?
Charlie Green………..?
‘Bomber’ John Brown.?
Well , if what I’m hearing from my ‘source’ is correct , the answer is even more surprising….!
Remember that time Leggoland’s Wee Presbyterian Granny came to the front door…collecting for Charities…?
Of course,”Celebrities of Radio & TV”,like Stephen Fry…and Her Majesty The Queen
never carry any ready cash….
So…It’s a rummage behind the cushions of the settee….the weans’ Piggy-Bank gets cracked open….
Meanwhile,the ‘prop’ Zimmer Stick is discarded….and she’s up the stairs and into the loft in a flash…faster than you can say “Harry Tuttle In Brazil”…
Then she’s away down the road, beaming….a shiny 50p piece added to the collection box ,along with various denomination Co-op Milk Tokens,a tube of ‘Olde English Spangles’…….and the very last Buttermulk Dainty ever baked by Lightbodys’ of Hamilton……..
And if you don’t believe me…you can get the Gospel Truth yourself…from Owen Coyle’s Granny……..
If Hearts score it’ll be a miracle
Close ups of the filthy animals in the Midlothian support should carry a health warning.
Levante kill off the tie against Motherwell in the 1st leg
No doubt the haircut that time forgot will say his team matched them, it was 2 goals against the run of play blah, blah, blah

As an exile who lives too close to scouseland for comfort I have to listen to them spout their EPL superiority over the SPL Regularly so I was kinda hopin the hertz wid cause a wee upset whilst still expecting them to go out over the two legs……in saying that I had a wee flutter on Liverpool 2 mins before the goal at 9/4 so every cloud ….. Cough :-)
Hearts replace diver with Driver another diver.
