There is an unusually sombre tempo head of tomorrow’s Champions League last 16 tie, a consequences of the 0-3 reversal at home three weeks ago and the general sentiment around Scottish football this week, but this match is an excellent test for both manager and playing squad.
We are a Champions League team again with aspirations to achieve at this level next season. Having finally overcome the hoodoo of never having won away from home in the competition, we must use occasions like tomorrow to continue our growth in the competition.
We defended our 18-yard line in the Camp Nou and almost got away with a point. The plan was wrong in Lisbon, where a talented Benfica controlled midfield and recorded a narrow win, but the win against Spartak in Moscow was deserved.
Celtic might not be able to qualify for the quarter finals but they can win the match tomorrow; this is an achievable objective which would sweeten the inevitable medicine.

Feckin guilotine, tried to get on Real there @ 4/1, now the site has gone down, amatures.
never a red, I reckon dullarse has been training them. Dreadfull decision
Thankfully Madreed have shut up the manoo fans and their nursery rhyme song book.
PF – majority of stadium paid off, what’s to stop them spending big?
Have you seen what they charge for tickets???

No sympathy for Manure. A German team will win the competition anyway.

His body language just seems strange………I would need a box of sedatives if we were the only British team to progress to the last 8 ……which is my lucky number ……LOL
Any chance of a Manure player putting the ball in the net tonight?
Madrid have done it 4 times.
GL – correct, it will be Bayern….in Munchen….in Deutschland !!

67 heaven.
I wouldn’t be surprised if mourinho has been lined up for the man u job after watching a couple of documentaries about him and Ferguson.
They came across as mutual admirers.
Ronaldo may follow him aswel.
PF Ayr from earlier
Sorry I was kicked off the computer by one of those women who knows nothing about fotball but knows what she wants, which was me aff the computer.
My point was that our defence was always poor-ish or good-ish but we revere the Balde, Mjalllby, Valgaeeren +1 defence above all that came after.
It’s like believing players that are out of the starting line up are going to be better than those the manager selects- their reputations have increased greatly since they stopped being selected.
Fergies fuming mug and comments should be fun after the game.
WTF Pepe booked
TET – not going to argue with you :-)
Happy to see utd go out and even better with a controversial decision, sir furious is another manager that sees every bad decision his team get, but never see the decisions that go against his opponents
Sanna – forgot to say, can’t make The Kano Foundation end of season dinner/dance this year, as we’re away on holiday.
When exactly is that amazing TKF event and what’s the details….?!

5 mins Fergie Time
Did that goalie play wae Porto?
That me just landed in Milan and on our way into the centre to find our hostel.
Sorry if some posters didn’t like what I said earlier but I don’t think things such as this should be brushed under the carpet. I remember seeing posters getting it in the neck cos they mentioned that Celtic fans were breaking seats at tynecastle (which they were, I was there). I think things like this need to be highlighted especially amongst our own support. There’s no reason to deny it unless we’re scared we won’t have our great reputation anymore which may happen anyway.
What a save
Lopez’s antics take me back.who was the manager of porto then??
Cheating b******s.
Then again i couldn’t give a monkeys about man u.
as_i_thought
You seem to be there whenever they bad Celtic bhoys are about,you seem to be a Jonah
or a shit stirrer.
Barca / Celtic final, with Celtic just scraping it………
Had to laugh at the commentators……slagging the Real goalie off earlier as being ordinary ….then praising him for 2 great saves ….LOL
SOAL – in hindsight, it wasn’t that far away from him, but the man has done his job.
Fergie is going to be absolutely fizzing after this…! :-)

I did…
TTTT
Nothing to stop them spending now ….yet they don’t
They have £120m+ in the bank and charge a fortune for tickets ….Arsenal fans are a patient lot …they’re being short changed at the moment IMO
Manure fans singing cheats ! Cheats! Cheats!
Think they would’ve rioted if they’d been up against Juve!

I guess I’ll have to let you decide which one. I’m not sure why not getting taken off a plane or breaking plastic seats makes me a Jonah tho…
as i thought
Well said.
It’s what makes us differnt from Chelsea fans.

Something strange about that……
Two champions leagues/ european cups in 26 years?
They’ve been one of the top 3 richest clubs for most of that time.
Fergie’s no doubt a great manager but when you think of Clough and Paisley’s achievements.
Ferdinand claps his hands in the refs face a ,minute later he shakes his hand.
The better team won, and when you see the high boot again, it was deliberate, and very dangerous
Chilles = toby jug gubb!!
