You and I have enough recent experience to know teams we’ve never heard of, or know little about, cannot be underestimated when it comes to European football. We should expect, and will get, a very difficult game tomorrow.
The good news is that Hapoel Beer Shiva have lost goals in three consecutive matches after a solid defensive run which saw them keep 8 clean sheets in 12 games. But they scored four while conceding in two of those games, the only reversal coming at home to Ashdod in the League Cup last midweek.
They shut up shop away from home in their two earlier Champions League qualifying rounds at Sheriff in Moldova after a narrow 3-2 home win, they kept out Olympiakos before winning the return 1-0 in the last round.
Unlike in previous years, we are not facing a team midseason in the playoff round; Hapoel have had a few cup games but will not open their league season until Saturday.
Hospitality for 3 people at Celtic-Hapoel Beer Shiva at Walfrid Restaurant
Celtic sponsor, Intelligent Car Leasing, have given us three tickets for fantastic hospitality at the Walfrid Restaurant, before, during and after tomorrow’s night’s Champions League qualifier. This is another money can’t buy opportunity for three people to watch Celtic in a hugely important game in sumptuous comfort.
Anyone can enter the competition, however, as this prize of so incredible, I’d like everyone who enters to donate a recommended £10 to the good work of the Celtic Foundation.
You can donate at this MyDonate page.
The Celtic Foundation work to improve Health, promote Equality, encourage Learning and tackle Poverty (H.E.L.P.) in Scotland, the rest of the UK and Ireland, and worldwide. It’s your Foundation, you built and maintain its good work.
A few guidelines for the raffle:
Raffle closes at 21:00 BST TONIGHT, so there’s not a lot of time and I’m not expecting many entries. You will not be entered into the competition if you donate or apply afterwards.
Enter with an email address you are going to check later tonight or early tomorrow, add a phone number, if you like.
You can enter two ways:
By making a recommended £10 donation to Celtic FC Foundation here. Then email me at celticquicknews@gmail.com with Walfrid in the subject line, to make sure I can get in touch with you.
Or
By emailing me the names of every Celtic shirt sponsor and official kit manufacturer. Ever. To celticquicknews@gmail.com
One of the above will be pretty easy for most of us. The other will be pretty difficult. Do the easy one.
Great prize. Only open for a few hours so there will be little competition. Go for it!
Thank you, and thanks to Intelligent Car Leasing for supporting our fundraising efforts.

Peter lawwell, stole the new article.
Well somebody had to blame him!
Davidopohlus
Dembele will defo be on from the start…!!!!
67Heaven .. CHALLENGING THE LIE ..I am wee Oscar…… Ipox belongs to the creditors
So your team team line-up leak??????
Gasp….
*you’re
CQN official position:
OBF act: “Protest against this! Don’t stand for it! Get political!”
UEFA’s fascistic rules: “Don’t rock the boat lads, play by the rules!”
Even more insulting is the guff about “faux protestors” and “pay the fine if you want to protest” – newsflash, Celtic fans paying for entrance to the game *are* paying the fine. And it may be the only opportunity for Celtic fans to influence where the money goes at Celtic PLC. Money that Celtic fans are 100% responsible for the club receiving (remember the old adage about football without fans?)
Leave your politics at the door (unless they’re pro labour or astonishingly right wing).
Petec: very positive post. I think it’s a very constructive idea – but may only work if the other party are willing to entertain political and humanitarian improvements to their society. That said, vociferous protests have failed, so maybe a change of tack is required.
/p
I know I know, if you don’t want to read it, just scroll by it, I’m just posting it some like it, Huns and level 5 don’t so GIRFUYs

Is there any connection between Celtic’s refusal to challenge the same club narrative and the ticket price for The Old Firm game?
Mmmmm.
What is up with Joey Barton he seems to have an inferiority complex and he just cant keep his mouth shut on matters about Celtic.Joey just hawd yer weesh we will see how good a player you are soon enough.I think we may get a surprise from Brendan in tonights team selection. H.H.
Starry Plough
I contacted Celtic TV this week and they said the Game was Audio only and a reply later tonight,
this was for overseas viewers as the game comes under the Champions League so no live
coverage on Celtic TV
My team for tonight?…the one Brendan picks…will do for me…
The Board says- Sack The Green Man…
Peter Lawwell says- Tie the Green Man down on my heated driveway, turn it up to 11 and leave him there in the mid-day sun…and charge folks £49 to come see him squirm…
Qualification for CL would/will be a welcome bonus for me given how early it is in the BR tenure.
Winning 6 in a row on the road to 10 and beyond would be fantastic
A treble would have me rejoicing.
Nothing however would give me more pleasure than seeing Broony and/or A N other run mega mouth Barton ragged every time we come across him this season.
What an objectionable piece of dog shit that guy is. ( with apologies to dog shit)
JOE FILIPPIS HAIRCUT
When your named after a budgie, you do tend rattle on a bit, ergo: Joey.
Feck me! They’r all at it to be sure.

Barton really is a low life, resorting to personal insults is unacceptable. On the plus side he is obviously a little afraid of what is coming his way.
There’s a podium for us
Somewhere a podium for us
Hold my hand and I’ll take you there
BRNOBHOY
Just seen that:((
Yep CL bollocks as usual..
Sausage a sausage my kingdom for a sausage:)

Totally agree superb new article
Hail Hail
Joe Hart’s got dandruff…
1.48pm and the team has not been leaked.
Efe Ambrose has been eliminated from the Champions League squad.
Theres a joke in there somewhere…
HH
Joey Barton was on the radio saying that the treatment of Joe Hart is “disgusting”
Which is a bit rich. Pep can play or sign whoever he wants to win games. That’s why he’s paid the big bucks and Joey Barton runs his mouth on radio.
if you want to see the new article then it will cost you £49
pay up or shut up
Trolling taken to a new level: http://theturf.com.au/2016/08/17/steaua-bucharest-trolled-rival-fans-champions-league/#.V7Rc22fSlhE
Olympic golf
The Russian lass is wearing a dress and a big straw hat,don’t know if she’s been oot awe night
Or going straight oot when it’s done
Looks braw though
HH
Finally, the long awaited article about peter lawwell and the chronic mismanagement of the club. And it doesn’t miss
Superb stuff
So! I guess all the people who where upset in the SMSM about Scott Brown calling the hearts player a cheat for diving, will be just as upset about Joey the budgie saying Brendan is going through a mid life crises, banter right?
Will Willy Caballero get the Head and Shoulders contract now?
Don’t think so…
Where’s the new article?
And more to the point ………………………..where’s BRAW?
THE GREEN MAN SAYS SACK THE BOARD on 17TH AUGUST 2016 1:02 PM
Anyway…im offski.

Don`t even think about it.
Big gemme the night.

Very funny. The BT Sports commentator was praising the fans for staying behind when the team was 0-5 down. No wonder they stayed if they were all fans of the rivals.
Now, how can we do such a thing?
Anyone know how to get tickets at Firhill?
TD67…half the huns team are going through a mid-life crisis… :-)
Right Paul has obviously gone to the pub, so I will do the new article.
Eh right, just because we huvny heard much about Beer Shaver, diznay mean that their no capable o’ humpin’ us. Oor players have proven in the past to be a bit short on bottle for this kind of pressure match (£35 mill byraway) so dinnae be gettin’ on their backs, and keep support in’ them, even if they play pash.
We are Celtic, and if there’s a hard way, we’ll take it.
Think that’s me, enjoy the game……… Oh, big Peter iznay a bad guy once ye get to know him.
;)
HH
Suppose Barton needs to draw attention to himself in the media. He ain’t going to do it on the pitch.
Keep reading that the most important thing is to keep a clean sheet at home.
Boll***s
We must score more than them at home.
Give me a 2-1 over a nil nil anyday.
A 3-1 over a 1-0
We only ‘must’ keep a clean sheet if we cant score more than a goal.
BIG-CUP-WINNERS
Congratulations on your Podium ;))
No offence intended Paul, remember, parody is an advanced form of flattery.

Well up for tonight bhoys – excitement & nervous tension building up…..
Celtic Park on big Euro Nights – have lived them and loved them for over 40 years now and always will.
For some reason I am thinking about Stevie Murray and the 4-2 extra time victory over Basle in ’74 –- there was one hell of a Walk-On that night with 75,000 in the ground. Would I take 4-2 tonight – yes I would.
That was in the good ole days when you called Basle Basle and not Basel as in Fawlty…..
Anyway…..I was waiting on Paul67’s new article for this but here goes now….
I have a spare ticket for North Stand 405 (half way line) for £25 face value, available first come first served to a CQN-er.
My email details available from Paul67 or Winning Captains for meet up details.
tully
Neg2 and Tgmsstb. You 2 clowns better be back on tonight when the green and white machine RUN RIOT or will you be to busy punchin holes in the wall and spewing in a pail to praise Brendan The Board and The Players ….
Do you 2 clowns eat rock cakes and drink irn bru
