The cry was Surrender

741

Callum McGregor would have started the scoring on 65 seconds if he got his shot away a fraction earlier, but it was the intelligence of Patrick Roberts after 5 minutes that started the party. He laid the bait in front of Newco’s Beerman, showed him enough of the ball to convince the left back to attempt an interception.

At that moment, Patrick conjured up his version of the Missing Lady. Before Beerman could make contact, the ball was gone, replaced by Robert’s limbs. Referee John Beaton took his time before awarding the kick. Conditioned by an earlier refusal to give a stonewall penalty to Celtic, we thought the worst, but the award was made and Scott Sinclair rolled the ball into the corner of the net.

Leigh Griffiths unleashed a lethal shot for the second. Stuart Armstrong won possession off Hyndman, when he really shouldn’t have. Goalkeeper, Fotheringham, got a hand to the shot, but, in a moment symptomatic of Newco’s entire play, he didn’t have the steel to divert the shot from goal.

Scott Sinclair will be exhilarated today, but on the odd occasion he’ll ponder why he didn’t help himself to a hat-trick yesterday. He squandered two great chances, one after a Griffiths shot from 18 yards rebounded off the crossbar.

Measuring a manager is difficult as there are so many other variables go into a club’s season, but if you want to judge Brendan Rodgers, take a look at Callum McGregor. He opened Celtic’s account in the second half, six days after scoring the first against Newco at Hampden. This season, Callum has emerged as a tidy and skilful central midfielder. So much of our play is dependent on the speed of thought and movement he brings to the game.

Dedryck Boyata scored the fourth, a header from a whipped Griffiths free-kick. This act was superfluous to the big man’s imperious performance. He simply won everything that came within his considerable reach. More evidence of his manager’s ability to improve players, teams, leagues and the mood of a nation.

I doubt Dedryck’s partner, Jozo Simunovic, required a shower after the game. He strolled through the occasion. Really good defenders are not called to defend too often. They simply know where to go to inhibit or intercept. This was Jozo’s game, apart from a simply stunning tackle on Kenny Miller. He swooped like an eagle picking up a field mouse, making a surgical contact with the ball and clearing the danger.

This brought a period of utter nonsense on the Sky Sports commentary, where we were told Jozo’s “speed” should have been penalised with a foul. I can only assume parallel universes exist, in another, fast players are not allowed. We were also told that Jozo went in “with two feet”. He didn’t, one knee was bent, foot under his gluteus maximus.

We are at a stage where television is asking for fouls when Celtic bring genuine world-class football to Scotland. Make no mistake, this tackle was of Beckenbauer standard. Mr Walker, take a look at yourself.

We lost our shape around five minutes before Newco’s late consolation. The players are not robots, fatigue may well have crept in, and the occasion was getting to all of us, but fortunately Mikael Lustig had a plan.

You remember that moment in Escape to Victory, when Bobby Moore is talking tactics, and Pele picks up the chalk and says, “Give me the ball and I’ll go here, here, here and here, the score”, while meandering across the blackboard. Mikael must have watched that movie as a child, and some long dormant neurons, which were protecting the memory, sprung into life.

That’s pretty much what Mikael did.

They were absolutely brilliant, every single one of them. But let me assure you, this really is just the beginning. 12 of the 13 Celtic players who touched the ball yesterday were at the club last season. Wait until you see what Brendan does when he makes the squad his own.

Newco surrendered. They looked like they didn’t want to be there. By the end, not many of their fans were.

  1. From Scottish Rag today,

     

     

    Two people have been taken to hospital after three teenagers staged a dramatic roof top stand-off with riot plice.

     

     

    Eyewitnesses said the youths were “swearing and throwing stuff” at officers in front of stunned neighbours at an address in the Westerhope area of Newcastle.

     

     

     

    An ambulance arrived at the scene of the incident and one of the youths is reported to have been seen limping.

     

     

    A number of residents were reported to have brought out deckchairs and snacks to watch the drama unfold.

     

     

    Neighbour Paul Sinclair was at the scene since the stand-off started and said there were originally two teenagers on the roof, but they were joined by a third and started throwing tiles at cars and police.

     

     

    All three youths are now believed to have come down from the roof after being persuaded by “a number of people”.

     

     

    ” On the Roofs” ?………I know that they are called the “MAGPIES”….but ?

  2. Some posters on here are only NOW suddenly concerned about the safety of Celtic FC employees AFTER Saturdays “mis match” at the Bigot/Racist Dome…………..??????

     

     

    I was watching Spurs v Arsenal yesterday, and a Spurs fan tried to verbally abuse an Arsenal player who was about to take a throw in and was at the touchline……………in the feckin blink of an eye at least 3/4 Spurs stewards nabbed the guy …BEFORE any real abuse was hurled……….Sevco Stewarding…or lack of….one for the authorities perhaps, don’t clubs have to ensure proper stewardship BEFORE being provided with a “Health & safety Licence” to hold events ?

     

    is this yet another feckin Licence they animals SHOULDN’T have got ?

     

     

    HH

  3. Canamalar it looks like OCD obsession on

    So the enevitable and predicted result of the 5-way agreement comes to fruition, the lust for the bigot pound is realised, the pretence of ignorance and the deafening silence from our own Plc has a crop to harvest, supporters abused, players abused, acceptable as long as the money keeps rolling in. Yesterday’s antics are all part of the show that attracts tv money, far more important than the health and wellbeing of players and support, what’s the new popular saying? Well colour me surprised.

     

    My expectation of a response from the Plc is very low and I suspect there will be those that will tell me the same old same old, it’s not the Plcs business or responsibility, it’s the police, sevco security and SPFL everybody but the Plc, analogous with Res12 when they abdicated responsibility for protecting shareholders interests, what more could our Plc have done, spoke out for starters.

  4. Saw a wee bit of news this morning, didn’t catch the whole item but apparently a football player somewhere “WALKED OFF”, AFTER BEING RACIALLY ABUSED…………I don’t think Scott Sinclair actually saw the racist moron on Saturday ( apologises if he did ?)….but what if Scott Sinclair had also just “Walked off”….and probably being joined by the rest of the Celtic team…..would some on here argue that Scott would have been wrong to do that ?

     

    BEFORE the Cup semi final at Hampden…I was asking for Celtic FC to issue a “Directive” to Brendan and the players BEFORE we faced those animals……some on here claimed it was a ” STUPID SUGGESTION” ?

     

    Celtic players being racially abused, missile throwing, attempted pitch assault…………..how much more do we have to put up with from “The Peepil”….not forgetting unlicensed stewarding, which as far as I am aware is feckin ILLEGAL ?

     

    One poster on here last night called ” TIIM ???”….posting “Enough is Enough”……MY EXACT words BEFORE the feckin game at hampden….HUNbelievable !

     

     

    I’ll leave it there.

    Roddy Forsyth The Telegraph

     

     

    1 MAY 2017 • 6:33AM

     

     

    Two inquisitions, both staged in Glasgow over the past week, have produced melancholy spectacles for Rangers supporters. One is the ongoing trial of Craig Whyte at the High Court, where the man who bought the club from Sir David Murray in May 2011 is alleged to have acquired the Scottish football institution by fraudulent means – an accusation that Whyte has denied.

     

     

    The other was played out at Hampden Park and Ibrox, in consecutive Old Firm derbies, after which the unanimous verdicts were that this Rangers squad is not remotely in the same class as Celtic. In the William Hill Scottish Cup semi-final, few Rangers fans left before the end of the 1-0 defeat but, with 15 minutes remaining on Saturday and Celtic leading 4-0 – and en route to a historic record score for an Ibrox derby – thousands were streaming through the exits.

     

     

    What must concern the Ibrox board is how long they can depend upon the fealty of the Light Blue faithful, who bought the maximum possible 43,000 season tickets for this season on the assumption that they would witness progress towards restored parity with Celtic. Their belief was fuelled by Rangers’ victory over their arch rivals after a penalty decider in last year’s Scottish Cup semi-finals.

     

     

    That success, though, was achieved against a Celtic side under the new age-style management of Ronny Deila, whose inevitable departure preceded the far steelier regime of Brendan Rodgers. Celtic have now turbocharged their way through a Scottish Premiership campaign to a 27-point lead over Aberdeen and a 36-point advantage over Rangers.

     

     

    How many Rangers fans would have invested in season tickets had that been a likely prospect? And, having witnessed six Old Firm fixtures across all three domestic competitions, which began and ended with 5-1 defeats, how many will think twice about investing again?

     

     

    Kenny Miller, the only Rangers player to have emerged from the last eight days with credit – and the scorer of his team’s only goal in three hours of football – made a point of praising the supporters and declaring his belief that they will not desert the cause. “The fans have been outstanding throughout what has been a tough, frustrating season for everyone at the club,” said the 37-year-old striker.

     

     

    “We’ve not hit the levels we should have been expecting to hit since day one with the draw against Hamilton here. We’ve had no level of consistency or performances. Our best run has been four wins in a row.

     

     

    “That’s not good enough to be up there challenging for the top, so there’s a lot of work to be done for us to be better next year.”

     

     

    It is impossible yet to judge Pedro Caixinha’s ability to overhaul Rangers’ fortunes to a respectable degree, although early doubts have emerged. No coherent tactical plan was apparent against Celtic at Hampden Park but Caixinha evidently believed that, with more passion and energy from his players, he could profit from fielding a midfield diamond at Ibrox.

     

     

    That mirage evaporated within seconds of the kick-off as Celtic began to rampage straight through the heart of Rangers’ tissue-frail deployment.

     

     

    At half-time Caixinha replaced a forward, Joe Dodoo, with a midfielder, Andy Halliday. When the switch failed to stem Celtic’s attacking tide he sent on Joe Garner for Emerson Hyndman, a forward for a midfielder.

     

     

    As Caixinha picks his way through the debris of his battle plan, he can now have no delusions about the wholesale reconstruction he must oversee during the summer. A telling factual oddity is that Celtic have scored more goals on their two visits to Ibrox than the combined total bagged on the same ground throughout the season by Garner and Martyn Waghorn, whose cumulative haul has been six.

     

     

    For the rampant league leaders, by contrast, the vista is of endlessly beckoning sunlit uplands, although experience cautions that the landscape contains crevices in the form of hazardous Champions League qualifiers.

     

     

    As the Hoops fans relished a spectacle which saw half of Celtic’s outfield starters – Scott Sinclair, Leigh Griffiths, Callum McGregor, Dedryck Boyata and Mikael Lustig – find the net, they amused themselves by cheering each Rangers substitution. So emphatic was Celtic’s display that Lustig deemed it their best of the campaign on the home front.

     

    “We scored five goals but if we had been 100 per cent clinical it could have been closer to double figures,” he said. “I think it was the most satisfying performance of the season in domestic terms.

     

     

    “I don’t know if this proves the gap is getting bigger. There were two teams out there but let’s just talk about our performance, which was brilliant. They tried something new and they couldn’t touch us.

     

     

    “That’s why we work really hard. It is easy to think we will have an easy week now and have fun on the training ground, but it’s not like that.

     

     

    “We always have something new we have been learning during the week. We take care of our bodies and work a lot on tactics. That is why we are so good now. We never stop.”

     

     

    Lustig’s words constituted a manifesto for total domestic domination.

     

     

    Meanwhile, Rangers – yet again in a passage which began with the events now being dissected at the High Court in Glasgow – must rely on their careworn supporters to engage in another massive exercise in crowdfunding to stand any chance of providing effective opposition.

In my view, Leo is now even better than [Diego] Maradona was. He’s going to be at the very top for many years to come, there’s nobody like him.”

    My friends in Celtic,

     

     

    The debate whether “Rangers” should be playing ” football” is possibly for another day.

     

     

    Today, For many of us ,ademolishing the Huns is Karma. Karma in ins real meaning.

     

    The joy we got on Saturday should not be disregarded. Our players obviously enjoyed it, and their emphathy with the fans was a joy to behold. The Celtic pubs were jam packed and happiness abounded.

     

    Did I enjoy Saturday because history was made or was it long overdue.

     

    I think the answer is both. I’m sorry, it’s my guilty pleasure, and I just can’t get enough.

  26. ‘Honest to God!’ – Kenny Miller hits out at Jozo Simunovic

     

     

    Kenny Miller has claimed Celtic defender Jozo Simun­ovic should have been sent off for a challenge which left the Rangers striker sprawled on the turf at Ibrox on Saturday.

     

     

    Referee John Beaton allowed play to continue after Simunovic won the ball but Miller insists he could have suffered a serious injury as a result of what he described as “excessive force” from the Croatian.

     

     

    Celtic were already 2-0 up when the incident occurred in the 25th minute. Miller believes the Scottish champions, who romped to a record 5-1 win, were fortunate not to be reduced to ten men at that stage.

     

     

    “The Simunovic one in the first half – honest to God,” said Miller. “I’m trying to get out the way of it. If I go and ride that, there is the potential you could get hurt in the tackle. I appreciate he did play the ball, but what’s the term that gets used now? Excessive force? I think there was definitely excessive force in that.”

     

     

    WOULD KENNY LIE? – HONEST TO GOD HE WOULDN’T

    I may well be proved wrong again, but here goes…….

     

     

    The Huns will drop more points in their remaining games as Mr Pedro tinkers about for his ” Ten Seconds…..thats what they will be for years to come 2nd best at the most ).

     

    THAT PERFORMANCE and SCORELINE by Celtic on Saturday will I believe…..lead to many of the orcs truly deserting that mob, by refusing to renew season books for next season….it has happened before with their feckin so called “LOYAL” Support. We all witnessed just how “Loyal” they really are last Saturday.

     

    Some of THEM will NOW finally acknowledge that they have NO HOPE WHATSOEVER of getting anywhere near Celtic for years to come unless some miracle Sugar Daddy steps in pronto ?

     

     

    Pedro will be given some time to have his own squad, but there lies yet another problem…..their so called players WILL NOT command big transfer fees, IF some club is stupid enough to buy them ?

     

    So season book monies will be down, little or no significant transfer fees coming in, possible Sponsorship monies being removed due to Court cases amidst ALL the shocking publicity, what little monies they get at present including match day snacks etc will also be down next season if less of the “Loyal” turn up……Pedro with little or no money to buy better players, possible further contracts money to be paid if cancelling or selling players ?

     

     

    Early next season…Pedro gets put on Gardening Leave, then again could they afford to sack him…probably not, but I CAN see Pedro saying ” Feck this…I’m Off” and thereby it won’t cost them money to sack Pedro ?

     

     

    All the while the Famous Glasgow Celtic go from strength to strength under Brendan on and off the pitch…possible more CL monies due to Celtic reaching later stages ?

     

    All the while The Hun being totally powerless to do anything, being forced to watch still hoping for some feckin miracle….the hatred and jealously of ALL things Celtic becomes even more intense…………………..ALL the while we Celtic fans are basking in Great Times.. the future is defo ” Green and White”……………………..apart from Murray getting jailed along with many others, EBT ‘s being repaid, SuperSally being forced to get TWO Gardening jobs just to make ends meet….John Brown throwing himself under a Green, White and Gold Corporation Bus ( Bring them buses back !)

     

    Barry FerusHUN and others also declared bankrupt, and begging for his old job at Clyde back…and Dundee FC going into liquidation yet again….can life get any better for us Hoops ?

     

     

    Maybe my predictions won’t happen……but one is allowed to dream, aren’t I ?

    The wee mhan presently looking through utube vids on his iPad

     

     

    of the big cup winning year and he said ” Papa see when Celtic won

     

     

    the big cup in 1967 why did they go roon Celtic park in that old

     

     

    banger of a lorry why no a big super duper open top bus?

     

     

    ” Thats a good question wee mhan, i suppose it reflected the times

     

     

    we lived in then, Celtic weren’t a rich club and all the bhoys came

     

     

    from within the Glasgow area but your right we should have pushed

     

     

    the boat out for that one”

     

     

    Or maybe there was another reason some of you older CQN’rs could

     

     

    enlighten us with?

     

     

    H.H Mick

     

     

    Mick my friend…tell the wee man that Celtic Park would have had to be under “Holy WATER” to go around the park on a boat….” The SS LISBON LINER”…..does have a certain ring to it right enough ?

     

     

    talking of WATER……….When Celtic let go of the youngster Simon FERRY a few years ago….I said to my mates in the pub soon after…..” I would have liked Celtic to push the BOAT out to keep that Bhoy” !

     

    My mates then asked me to leave the pub.

     

    Hahaha

     

    HH

  31. Ah we used excessive force & excessive skill, next thing they will say it’s just not sporting to keep on winning.

     

     

    Still on a high, but thoughts for our lost comrades, bhoys like Miki67 & El Diego Bhoy who would have loved to see this day.

     

    Life is short friends you must live every day, when times are good no gloom & doom, just enjoy it.
