Celtic didn’t hit the heights of last week’s win at Tynecastle against Inverness last night but it was a remarkably controlled win nonetheless. The game could have been over as a contest in the opening minutes but as the lead didn’t extend beyond a single goal the contest retained an edge.
Daniel Majstorovic was incorrectly penalised when he correctly challenged for the ball 25 yards from goal but the Swede’s lax initial response to the forward ball created the situation that resulted in his red card. Dan had a painful game against Inverness last season but after they were reduced to 10 men Celtic were far too composed to let Inverness’ numerical advantage count.
We’ve spoken about the value of goals from midfield in recent seasons. Kris Commons lit up Celtic’s season when he arrived in a flurry of goals last year but Joe Ledley’s efforts from the back post this season could prove to be even more important.

Could someone point me in the direction of the Cousin pic please
Some memories on here bhoys:
I was at the Bobby Lennox ‘in the stanchion’ match and then on the pitch at Brickville to celebrate the 9.
I was also ar iPox for the Joe Craig goal – the first time we had beaten Rangers there in 1000 days!
Bobby Lennox was indeed deemed to be offside when John Greig broke his leg.
Bobby was later asked when he realised his leg was broken- he said ‘ when I saw John Greig coming to tackle me’!
Those were the days

aye
read it bud. all good.
celtic wont miss the commercial benefits i am sure.
cant wait.
Worryingly, Barcabhoy has posted on RTC of a volte face from the Celtic board re admitting a Newco into the SPL.
The grounds being that it would not be viable without them.
With all my heart, I hope that he is wrong, for Celtic’s case.
Sitting thinking about nothing in particular.
The Coronation Cup came into my old heid.
‘ God save our gracious team,
Long live the Bhoys in green.
God save out team.
We beat the Arsenal,
We beat the Manchester.
We beat the mighty Hibs,
God save our team.’
Seem to remember that was normally followed by another ditty,….
‘ Oh, the bells of Hell go ting-a-ling- a-ling …..’
Ah , well.
Nobody’s perfect.
I saw the following, and the thought corssed my mind: Has Alex Salmond reset the bar on offensive behaviour?
Sports Minister Hugh Robertson told Sky Sports News: “There is an issue that still needs to be tackled.
“It goes beyond racism, you hear vile chanting about managers and opposition players.
“I don’t think that really has any place in modern society. If we don’t accept on the high street, I see no reason why we should accept it in a football crowd.”
Just askin’ like.

The “Cup of Nations” that is currently being held – is it not really just the African Nations’ Cup?
Why does everyone call it the
Similarly, why did football commentators refer to Nakamura as “the Japanese” and not the Japanese footballer or the Japanese player or call another player “the Portuguese” etc? It doesn’t sound right; I mean they wouldn’t call Hooper “the English” would they?

Yes that is the version I have. I don`t know if there was another.
I was on the BBC site and I`m still waiting for the Celtic match highlights but there is a fantastic piece of skill by Gary Mackay-Stevens of Dundee United against St Johnstone. No doubt it will feature tonight in Sportscene. The new McGeady?

Well done to Taggysbhoy and family and Brogan Rogan and Lee Nogan for organising and running the CQN music quiz last night. Had a great night.
Apologies to my team mates for my total lack of knowledge on anything musical.
Thanks especially to CRC for literally cracking open his 12 pack of beers raffle prize!

Not a CQN joke!
Wasn’t even a joke never mind a CQN joke.
Way below standards of a Celt.

Real Madrid put the ball in the net. Chalked off. Back-heel from Cristiano Ronaldo, but Benzema is offside. Nae luck.

What you posted is at 2030 is one of the vilest posts I have ever read on here.
Shameful.

Anyone watching the African Nations Final. I have fifty on Ivory Coast at 4/5. I can get out now with a loss of a tenner, thinking of doing it.
sorry im a hun
Moonbeams has said
it is gospel now
i know how this place works, i have lurked long enough
I still don’t believe the Celtic board would be so stupid as to vote for a Newco Hun straight into the SPL
It would be commercial suicide. Fans would walk away in their thousands, including myself
