The narrative was set for Aberdeen. After six consecutive league wins without losing a goal, their bubble was burst when they drew with Dundee and St Johnstone, but it hasn’t turned out that way. They have scored 10 and not conceded in the three league games since. Out of the Scottish and League Cups, their entire focus is on beating teams less resourceful than them in the league, which is everyone apart from Celtic.
Despite Celtic’s impressive ability to collect points dating back several months, Aberdeen are hanging in there, a remarkable achievement. The only thing which separates the teams are Celtic’s two 2-1 wins in their previous meetings this season. From Saturday afternoon Aberdeen’s complete focus will be on their visit to Celtic Park on Sunday.
By contrast, Celtic will return to Glasgow early Friday morning after their trip to Milan. They will face Aberdeen pretty much as that trip leaves them.
If I was offered a win and a defeat this week, I’d take the win in Milan, but we will need enough in te tank for Sunday’s game.
Thanks to everyone who booked a ticket over the weekend for the CQN11 St Patrick’s Dinner on Friday on 13 March at the Kerrydale Suite. Anyone still to catch up, let me know, celticquicknews@gmail.com

I think the main source of my dad’s incredulity and amazement (or amaze-balls-ness as you young things call I!) was that you’d managed to source such an understanding husband!
Apart from that he just went around saying, which one’s Sipsini???
HH jamesgang
I often wonder the same thing , since we’ve been together from we were 15 I think he’s just gotten used to my lunacy :-))

Calibre 1 – Inter Milan 2
73 minutes gone
I’m no expert but Inter’s defence does look prone to panic. Cagliari no 40 Mpoku looks good, did they say he’s a Belgian u21?
Dena
I will be there. This week it is noon kick off. Hope it is better weather. Sitting in a freezing wind after getting soaked to the skin in the walk fae Bellgrove Station was not enjoyable. Thought of asking Eddie for a body heat cuddle. :)))
Cagliari – predictive text woof.
DD,
The Belfast hootenanny was one that i would loved to have made, just too much going down work wise at the moment.
I had the pleasure of meeting Dena only fleetingly, hopefully the next time I’ll not be rushing away.
Pfayr, cheers mate, catch a beer in the BV soon, are you going toCQN 11?
Inter looking fragile at the back , long may it continue at least until Thursday anyway

“did you dry out from yesterday”?
Eventually ,
need to invest in waterproof thermals for the future.:)))
good night all
tell those close to you how much they mean to you.
Inter look leggy. Piling on the subs now.
Scottish media hoping for an Inter loss.
6th place doesn’t sound as bad/good as midtable.

She brought an unsentimental eye and ear to material that, by it’s nature, could easily be swamped by emotion.
A lot of left-wing theatre often has people there to serve the politics – her work allowed the politics to come through the people to the audience

Was that not Amy Turtle?
Confused CSC.
This chat is getting a bit risqué and all Victoria’s Secret for my liking.

Just watched the Cork barman singing ‘bright blue rose’, and lovely it was, but if you have never had the pleasure of hearing Mary Black’s rendition, then do yourself a favour and YouTube it .
As jack and victor would say, sorry I’ve got a new “Fudge” and don’t know how to copy links yet.

Campagnaro kicks young Belgian in the head in a Jig type assault.

Won’t be at CQN11. My daughter’s birthday is 17 March. We are having a celebration on the 13th for her. Enjoy bud.

So we need to start somewhere, but we can’t start because the other side are still doing it?! Bizarre logic – It would be better to set a positive example whilst campaigning that others do the same, refusing to change because someone else won’t isn’t really a great response
Have you been inside Ibrox before what do you think has been happening inside for the last 10 years, so much has changed we as supporters of Rangers FC have done much more to address this problem than any other club but we as fans and supporters of Rangers FC are being singled out and made an example of while in the meantime the east have been fined 6 times for there crap and as you can see from the recent semi final the chants the banners and the bile experienced by our supporters as well as the ones that tuned into watch the game clear heard the east mob singing songs and delaying banners that were ment to be banned before getting in the ground. So to say we should take the moral high ground is not acceptable when we are not never on a footing is ridiculous. Just to add none of the fines where by SFA they where by FIFA or Uefa.
Sipsini
Sadly not …I had arranged to go down to Twickenham for the rugby…before CQN11 was announced
Oft. Outrageous effort from hernanez.
Terrific 30 yard effort from Inter hits bar buts stays out. Full time 2-1 for Inter.
Inter win 1-2 and move up to seventh in the league. ‘Celtic should be beating teams like this, says noted pundit Steve McManaman.
Inter up to 6th in Serie A now. An improving side. Mancini will make something of them given time.
Just watched Cagliari v Inter. 1-2. Unimpressed. We can hammer them by closing down, attacking and playing our game. Off to lay bets with confidence.
Is timgreen McManaman in disguise?
tallybhoy,
Will do, cheers mate, Caesar has just went out, probably on the prowl for a bird, feathered or feline, God knows.
I don’t like getting cocky, but, Im looking forward to maybe a result on Thursday.
When the draw was made, to be honest, I didn’t fancy our chances.
I’ll put my hands up that I was a Ronny doubter, now, I’m on board with his management, fitness regime and performance.
Roll on Thursday.
TOSB
Sounds like a tough run out for Inter …..after a tough game against us …
I thought we were fitter than them on Thursday and finished stronger …..
We need to try and keep it tight …no silly goals …we can have a right go at them in the last 20/30 mins
Tut tut! Your husband sends you to Glasgow every week wi holes in yer boots!
Terrible!!!! ;)))
What Keevins has managed to achieve, probably inadvertently, is to distract the Celtic support from the original target, those spouting racism and sectarianism on Friday night in Kircaldy.
We have the occasional daftie singing ditties which should be left in the past that could be ‘deemed’ sectarian but for a long time now our song book has thankfully been sectarian free.
You may not agree with some of those songs, you personally may even find them offensive, but that doesn’t mean any of them are sectarian.
Let’s keep the real, intended target in focus and not allow ourselves to be side tracked by devious forces.
Let the Celtic supporters sing.
Hard to tell much about T’inter tonight.
Few changes. No shaquri who was main main last Thursday. In fact non of the goal scorers played.
HH
My assessment is that the tie is still open and we can go through to last 16. Inter were competent but were under pressure during second half.We have to be careful because they have players who can score from anywhere. The effort which hit the bar in the last minute was exactly like Coutinho’s goal for Liverpool yesterday but did not cross the line.
