We Shall Not Be Moved

674
By on CQN BLOG & Comments

Was it really almost 15 years since the only time Celtic beat reigning European champions?  A late goal from Scott McDonald in October 2007 was enough to secure a 2-1 win over Milan in the Champions League.  Two other Scottish clubs had already achieved this (Rangers and Dunfermline, both who beat the 1967 European champions), recording a mark the great Stein sides never did.

The reason I mention this to you is that in the days that followed we were glowing in our new European status.  Then we visited Fir Park.  It wasn’t even Motherwell we faced, it was Gretna, a team from 90 miles south of ML1 who did not have the facilities to compete in the top flight, so travelled the M74 for home games.

Gretna were leading until 85 minutes, when goals from Chris Killen and another late McDonald winner calmed our nerves.

We are now glowing at our great win and performance on Wednesday night.  ‘We shall not be moved’ from the top of the league is the claim.  I heard the same chant from Dingwall on Saturday when Newco took a 2-3 lead; chants don’t win points.  The next game is always the biggest one and for Celtic, the next two, both on the road, are crucially important.

Players are not machines, they cannot climb the mountain every time.  There will be an inevitable fall off in adrenalin at Fir Park.  There are 14 games remaining, seven away from home, every one a cup final in itself.  An acre of Lanarkshire is the stage for our next trophy.  Win and keep belief alive that not by the Hearts, the Hibs or the The Rangers, we shall not be moved!

    On the Arbroath question, they will groundshare with either Dundee (most likely) or Dundee Utd. Talks already advanced.

    Ibrox banned BT pundits Chris Sutton & Neil Lennon, however the show with both of them went on from an empty Celtic Park.

     

     

    Broadcasters will not be told who they can and cannot employ. They ‘dig their heels in’, and quite rightly so. If they sack Boyd after Celtic ban him, it would set a precedent – they just won’t do that…..but they might sack him if they feel he has overstepped the mark – but don’t hold your breath.

    Watching “The people versus OJ Simpson”

     

     

    Reminding myself of watching “Making a Murderer”

     

    I’m now not sure if OJ is guilty yet back at the time of his trial I was convinced he was.

     

    You can’t trust ANYONE

    I feel the same way. I was going to post about the ‘Boro version of Tav (Pen) but you beat me to the punch. You could have knocked me down with a feather when he blessed himself on the way back to the halfway line.

     

     

    It struck me that he may have inadvertently alerted the Undead that his sibling may not be as ‘staunch’ as they would like.

    Busy day.

     

     

    Just read back.

     

     

    A few gems.

     

     

    Was it St Stivs who posted the Likely Lads clip?

     

     

    Respect.

     

     

    The clip was funny.

     

     

    The third comment was hilarious.

     

     

    Tavernier’s wee brother blessing himself.

     

     

    Whodathunkit?

     

     

    Boyd?

     

     

    Cancel your subscriptions ! That’ll get him booted out PDQ.

     

     

    Damage is done. A Motherwell player highly likely to throw an arm into Calum’s face on Sunday.

     

     

     

    Finally – 31003 – doubt not my friend.

     

     

    He got away with murder.

     

     

    Ange’s press conference now then off to bed.

     

     

    Good night all

     

     

    Hail hail

     

     

    Keep The Faith

    Wednesday? If any of BBC’s pundits suggested it was okay to smash a Hun in the face to test the durablity of his face mask and the strength of his weakened jaw/cheeck bone you can be sure we wouldn’t be debating what they’ll do next.

     

    BBC’s lenscap is firmly fixed on Celtic alright, always has been.

    Liel Abada had been inconsistent because of the sheer amount of games, IMO.

     

     

    Wow – He has started the new year with a Bang.

     

     

    The Bhoys just turned 20!!!!!

     

     

    Superb Celtic.

     

     

    I missed the Goal Live as I was still Celebrating!!!!

    A Magical Night.

     

     

    Ange is the Man.

  35. TheLurkinTim on

    Turkeybhoy…Celtic FC a club open to all…you see the nonsense of yer petulance over a comment about a player blessing themselves?

     

     

    Still basking in the glow of a performance that no amount of superlatives can describe….from management to team, excellent all. 3 points banked…now lets go again Bhoys

     

     

    H.H.

    BBC Scotland/Sky Sports shameful.
