This is our trophy

235

Until recent times, the Newco penalty kick win over Celtic in the 2016 Scottish Cup semi-final was the greatest day in the club’s history.  They celebrated like it was a Petrofac Cup win all over again.  The teams have met twice in Scottish Cup business since, Celtic scored six over the two dates without reply, a merit scarcely recalled among our incredible achievements in recent seasons.

Our subsequent 21 games in the competition brought 21 wins, 20 within the 90 minutes.  Hearts and Partick Thistle scored a total of seven goals against us in that period, all the others put together managed to score just twice (Aberdeen and St Mirren getting one each).  In the history of spherical objects, Celtic’s domination of the Scottish Cup has never been matched.  This is our trophy.

    You are right, this squad produced a shameful defence of our title in the most important record season. They have shown their lack of team spirit and cannot be trusted to beat anyone far less Sevco with their tails up after their crushing league win.

     

     

    However, in the last game they showed some form and are perfectly capable of beating Sevco. MIB is a problem as the refs are going for a record season themselves. No penalties against Sevco and No Sevco orderings off.

     

     

    I hope Forrest is fit

  2. I think we should go for biggest strongest toughest options

    You could not make that up!

     

    And I’m guessing you didn’t have to.

  4. As I said before, Paul shows a lot of confidence in Celtic that doesn’t get born out by results.

     

     

    Hope he’s not a betting man.

     

     

    The bookies have Sevco as slight favs for Sunday.

  5. We have to beat Madden first. He allowed Morelos to stay on the pitch when he should have red carded him after about 10 minutes in the game where Nir Bitton was ordered off for pulling him down out on the wing. The cheating from the MIBs this season has reached levels I’ve never encountered before and it has been bad often enough.

  6. What is it with posters on here who can’t spell Celtic players names!!!

     

     

    Is it just laziness or are they not quite the Celtic supporters they claim to be?

    Orangeism sharing a platform with the worlds first fascist organisation.peep o the day boys snaking in claimin working class backing.plenty of tories backed by this “working” class party.

     

     

    *many years ago, possibly early 70s I was in a pub in Alexandria, allegedly the one that Celtic gave to amateur and apprentice joiner James Kelly in return for signing for us.

     

     

    An election had been called and me and my buddies were discussing the prospect of a continuation of the Labour Government, bear in mind that the Vale of Leven was at one time called “Little Moscow”.

     

     

    In came this bluenose we knew, not a bad punter at that but didnae hide who he was, during the political discussion he announced that since he was an orangeman he would be voting tory.

     

     

    After his one and only pint he left and we were laughing at the daft see you next Thursday as at that time the average wage among our group was 25 quid a week, he was a baker pulling in 13, and he still voted tory, another WTF moment.

  8. By the ole bye, I hope there is someone at the back of the (team) bus on Sunday filming the players’ reactions if they are given the reception at Ibrox that they had on their last visit to that paragon of virtue…..

    One other point on this Sevco Sparta nonsense I take it UEFA have condoned the locking out of dressing room for over 45 mins by Sevco for the Sparta team

     

     

    This holding them in the tunnel allowed sufficient time to have a Sparta player assaulted. Are Masonic friends in position at UEFA pulling favours for their favourites 🤔

     

     

    *As soon as I heard that the observer was from the black north, a linfield official tae, coupled with the referee’s report which we all know can be doctored I was convinced they would get away with it.

     

     

    Don’t forget that one of the UEFA employees that allocates the officials for their games is a bigot who posted a joke about the Catholic Church and child abuse.

     

     

    He has the power tae determine who gets the plum jobs, how in God’s name so many corrupt and incompetent Scottish officials swan around Europe is all down tae the craft.

     

     

    They really did get away with it, a slap on the wrists is nothing tae that mob and yet they still complain, my theory is they were extremely confident that Sparta would get kicked out of the tourney hence their game against the Hibbees being played on Sunday, they did say a few days after that game they were preparing for a trip tae Highbury..

     

     

    Possibly the only reason this never occurred is the attack on the tunnel investigation made by Sparta and the 10 game suspension is ok with them as long as they are still in the tournament.

     

     

    Punch ups in the tunnel happen often and one well known event is when the Glasgow polis allegedly turned a blind eye tae the Celtic players dishing out revenge after the Atletico game.

     

     

    As for the craft influence, of course there is who else would get away with “red hand” salutes in Israel, although their influence worldwide is weakening as is their membership, the last POTUS seemingly in the ludge was ford even though they were founded on craft principles, anyway Opus Dei is running the country now.

     

     

    However the tentacles still travel between calvinist Scotland and Switzerland.

  10. I’m of the opinion that stating we are a better team than them when all evidence this season suggests otherwise makes us look a bit daft.

     

     

    That said, I really hope we give them a doing 🤞🏼

  11. Listening to sky sports, i could drag Jim White through the screen …………… Man City on track for a never bfore done Quadruple season, away and shite arsehole

    For me the Scottish Cup Tie with the sevconians is only of interest in as much as it will have a direct impact on our strategy re the new manager, it’s all about the new manager, put us out of our misery ffs.

     

     

    If we win JK will suddenly be in a very very strong position to be the new man,

     

     

    if we get beat oor Eddie will be given a make up your mind time deadline,

     

     

    if he continues to hang about for Premiership Clubs then I think it will be Roy Keane,

     

     

    as for the actual cup itself, well as long as sevco dont win it that’s all that matters.

  13. In the last game against the huns, although we played well.

     

    The league had been lost and they looked a tired team until the last 10 mins , after they had made 4 changes.

  14. There will be no action taken against the Ibrox club should the Celtic team be verbally abused when alighting, or boarding the team bus. That would constitute strict liability – all SPFL clubs voted against it.

     

     

    However there is another avenue Celtic could take that could address this issue and the dramatic differences in Covid disciplinary procedures between ourselves and the Ibrox club this season.

     

     

    The SFA’s treatment of Covid breaches in cahoots with the SNPcult, has materially affected us in both the league and the Scottish Cup this season – no doubt the Ibrox line-up will contain at least one player who should be banned from playing. The last time we were at Ibrox the mob was allowed with a couple of metres of our players to inflict their sectatian hatred.

     

     

    As far as I am concerned, the Scottish Cup is of little value to Celtic this season – it has been an horrendous campaign – let’s leave it at that.

     

     

    In order to show our displeasure and utter contempt for the SFA….and remember this is their competition; I suggest that the Celtic team takes the field in normal fashion and when the referee calls the captains to the centre-circle for the toss-up, our captain leads the team off the pitch – we do not play the game.

     

     

    Now I know this will not happen – but if players/teams are about to be allowed to ‘walk-off’ because of a whispered comment in the ear of one player, perhaps this kind of protest could be understood.

     

     

    I say one thing if it ever did happen – the SFA would immediately tighten-up their suspension & appeals procedure.

  15. Man for a Bobby Murdoch in midfield against that mob.read article on Big Tommy Gemmell talking about scotland v west germany.got it on youtube.murdoch was immense,so was another good Celtic supporter Billy Bremner.Murdoch scored a peach to equalise.

  16. Go tell the Spartim on

    Watching The Confession Killer, regarding Henry Lee Lucas, even the Texas Rangers are lying cheating bastards

  17. It seems that kamara was initially suspended for 5 games but that was reduced on appeal. When were they informed of the original punishment and why was that not released tae the public.

    This place has turned into a party political broadcast for everyone.

     

    Not helped by some of Paul’s leaders.

     

    Some good ghuys still trying to keep it old style.

     

    But it’s getting harder and harder.

     

    Sad really
