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

Your having a laugh on your point 3……!!!!
Which Part…..Thinking Guidetti gets OTT adulation, or not liking them acting like wee boys?
Havanalaugh
They have to think of something that won’t get them booked!
I mean, they can’t run to the crowd like other clubs’ players, can they?

Does anyone else think the Commons/Guidetti 4th goal celebration on Sunday was an expression of their belief that the game was like a training session?
That’s the way I read it?
———————————–
Exactly what I thought.
Last minute equaliser against Inter with a cool, classy finish will get you adulation, no doubt about that.
TBB
His opening line was Sapphire snd steel. ..oooops steal
HHo
Beatbhoy…agreed the over zealous application in Scotland is a Joke compared to elsewhere.
Can’t believe Celtic players now getting a hard time for celebrating a goal!!

Don’t you know that ALL football players are wee boys, ……like me…..hahahahahahaha HH

Gents,
I wasn’t sure what it was about … but, unless I am misreading you, I hope that is not the intended meaning. to suggest that the game was little more than ‘A training session’ seems a bit disrespectful to opposing teams and fellow professionals ….
ps … Amy McDonald … kinda cute, and I have one of her songs on my ipod … but obviously not the sharpest knife in the drawer … or worse …..might have to delete that song from the old ipod!
What’s the script with Amy Macdonald, must have missed it. H H Hebcelt

If that was the intention then it could certainly be interpreted as such. Not sure if anyone (journo) asked them to explain?

Think you are reading to much into it Tom. I thought Kris was mocking himself for the way he landed when he scored the goal. (i.e.on his bahookie) and John was joining in.
Just watched it again and still think the same.

Who is Amy McDonald?
Did she kill Lucy…?
Goldstar10 that dizzy blonde would be Aimi Macdonald. H H Hebcelt

————————————-
She is having a dig at Collymore on that twatter thingy, but he got her fair and square with the vid he posted.
goldstar10
That was the lovely Aimi MacDonald.
hebcelt … she’s have a row with Stan Collymore … Her comments in response to SC’s comments …
“What utter crap. I support Rangers. I’m not racist or sectarian. I have no interest in Chelsea and I’m NOT an anomaly.”
“” I… condemn tarring vast swathes of people with the same brush. It’s not the way to solve any of these issues.
“Tarring everyone with the same brush, imo, is not going solve any of these problems.??”
She’s not entirely wrong … just missing the point. She, like most of them, simply ignores (i) their institutional bigotry, (ii) the vile songs, and (iii) the fact that it does seem to be a large number, if not most, of them that sing the songs at Ibrokes …
I think we should all relax Guidetti and Commons were having a bit of fun football is entertainment so let the Bhoys enjoy themselves and stop trying to put hidden meanings on everything.Most teams have weird and wonderful goal celebrations it is part of the game. H.H.
I expect that that the Guidetti/Commons goal celebration will have already been reported to the compliance officer. It must surely be sectarian/offensive or anti-Sevco in some way.
Jobo
You have Yahoo mail.
Hebcelt……met your friend and his son at the game……the wee filla was really excited ( NOT about meeting me….hahahahahahaha)

Tried to start a riot blessing himself, repeat offender.

I thought their celebration was fab…….like Johanne’s also ….punching the corner flag
Hebcelt & BSR- The very one, dont remember what she was all about, couldn’t sing or dance but good enough to win X-factor.
GM-seemingly Kevin Harper supposed to be on,HK last minute sub
Bada,
Hk on for kh? Ok.
:)
Let me just say that in no way was I criticising Guidetti or Commons for their goal celebration. I was merely asking if my own interpretation of its meaning was accurate.
Even given my interpretation, thought it was funny.

###############################
Maybe not anti-sevco Syd, but surely everyone can see they were mocking the previous club in the west, and the wee story about 2 men in a boat. 5 game ban each I think.
67Heaven. You and I thought the same thing mind you there will be some that think Joe Hanson shouldnt be hitting the corner flag as it might promote violence. H.H.
Outrage as children begin to copy the Guidetti/Commons celebration.

For me the best thing yesterday was the team was changed quite a bit but didn’t look weakened. We took a while to get going as some were rusty.
Commons wide right didn’t work though. Only when he took up a striking position did the breakthrough come.
The Hamilton keeper Michael McGovern would be a good No. 2 – out of contract at the end of the season.
Paul’s right we can’t take Aberdeen lightly. The rest of the sides are so bad they could go on a long winning run again. We need to keep a cushion between us – a draw would be a good result for both sides.
