In time we will forget, but for much of Celtic’s 0-9 win at Tannadice earlier this season, Dundee United held their own and forced the champions off their game.  An early Kyogo goal provoked United into action.  It was Kyogo’s second, on the 40th minute, that did the damage.  Before the break it was 0-4.

That game was Jack Ross’ seventh and final game in charge and eclipsed their 0-7 reversal in Alkmaar two weeks earlier.  In the vernacular, United ‘chucked it’.  We could expect a change in attitude when, after the players got their way, they arrived at Celtic Park in November.  The visitors levelled on 87 minutes, only to be denied a point by the team that never, ever, chucks it.

Since the World Cup break, United have lost only once in six outings, a home defeat to Newco.  That run took them off the bottom of the table; they are now tied on 20 points with Kilmarnock and Motherwell, three above Ross County.

Fully rested and in great form, I expect no problems for Celtic on Sunday.  United can look back on their early season woes and comfort themselves with the fact that at least their 7-1 aggregate hammering came to the team currently second in the Dutch league, whereas another Scottish club had the same outcome over two games against the fifth-place Eredivisie side.

Paradise Pit Stop

Every now and then the Celtic FC Foundation, YOUR Foundation, does something that stops me in my tracks.  With the cost-of-living crisis having such an effect, from next week they will open the doors to Celtic Park lounges on Monday and Thursday evenings, when volunteers from the club and Foundation will serve food, provide warm shelter and facilities for kids to play and study.

Celtic cannot solve the problems of poverty, but opening their doors twice a week to provide warm food and shelter to the needy is an incredible act which reflects our founding principles.  If you are involved in this, well done.  If you can only contribute monetarily, your efforts are invaluable.

What a club, what a support.  Just incredible.

    A rich guy is looking for an unusual present for a wife who has everything. He settles on a parrot that can speak twelve different languages.

     

     

     

     

    He leaves it at home while his wife is out then he goes back to work. When he comes home, he asks his wife if the she liked the parrot.

     

     

     

     

    ” Delicious ! ,” she says.

     

     

     

     

    ” Delicious? ” he asks. ” Did you eat it?”

     

     

     

     

    : Of course, I did.” she says.

     

     

     

     

    ” That bird could speak twelve languages!! ” he cries.

     

     

     

     

    ” Well why didn`t is say something? ” she says.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Big Jimmy has a lot to answer for :-))

     

    ……………..

     

     

    GOOD Wan mate.

    Is there a referee in Scotland brave enough to award a penalty against the hun.

     

     

    Who is going to be first…….

  5. Art of War on

    But…..but…but….it was only a straight leg, studs up challenge thru the ankle, at speed and with intent. Oh and didn’t get the ball.

     

     

    Shameful Collum.

    At Grayskull, no chance.

    It’ll be interesting to see if Davidson says anything after the game today. Looks like some StJ players have a lot riding on a Sevco win

  9. Big Jimmy on

    Given the Huns track record for being awarded Penalties, in recent weeks I have taken TAVPEN to score with a penalty in FIRST Goal scorer Bets etc.

     

    Today, I did NOT take him….and lo and behold they get a Penalty to score the 1st Goal.

     

    Typical.

    Anyone knowledgeable on the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS)? Is it a route to seek an independent review into the statistically virtual impossibility that the sheer number of questionable decisions benefitting one team?

     

     

    It’s not just Celtic losing out here. Hearts could be challenging for a pop at CL qualification if the without the swing in points the zombies have enjoyed from corrupt decisions this season.

     

     

    As levein put it all those years ago – other clubs don’t matter, if an ibrox club needs a result they’ll get help.

  11. RobertTressell on

    The zombies will have a penalty awarded against them if they ever manage to get three or four goals ahead in a game or in end of season dead rubbers.

     

     

    Knife edge situations where they need three points? No chance.

  13. leftclicktic on

    I expect a hearts player to be red carded tomorrow so he misses the visit of cheating fc on Wednesday.

    Thanks for putting that up. St J player on the left seems to be waving his arms around for no obvious reason. Was everyone on the Tavpen ?

  16. Hot Smoked on

    From the BBC`s updates:

     

    “Ryan Jack, either as a precaution against injury or a sending off, is left behind in the Rangers dressing room and John Lundstram is on.”

     

     

     

    Hmm…

  18. RobertTressell on

    Good grief, seeing the replays there, three absolutely outrageous decisions.

     

     

    Collum is terrified of making correct decisions against the franchise team at ibrox. Even when told to review the screen of Jack’s assault on Montgomery he goes against the Masons in the vans advice to review. Maybe they were testing how well house trained their token pape is.

     

     

    Cheats

  21. Prestonpans bhoys on

    I’ve only seen two occasions when the ref has declined the invitation to look at the monitor both involving the huns both calls which would have negatively impacted the huns 🤔🤔

  22. RobertTressell on

    Anyone beginning to understand why uncle Tom English and the smsm tubes started to raise the volume on the off field stuff lately? Namely the singing of songs not to everyone’s tastes? They wouldn’t be finding ways to dodge focusing on the extraordinary corruption unfolding on the field?

  25. RobertTressell on

    Signing off but before I go, Ruan Jack is the epitome if the plastic hard man. An absolute coward.

     

     

    Needing favours to beat St Johnstone at home is hardly the stuff of champions, but we are going to need to batter them at paradise again.

    Collum is a spineless cheat who is corrupted to keep the money coming.

     

     

    *as a former RK teacher he of all people should remember this “For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul?” ( Mark 8:35-36)

    Thanks for that good double post

     

    A wall of digital evidence has been built on this from week1.

     

    I wish all correspondence to this debate was open and transparent.Our club must pursue this for the betterment of the game.

     

    I was sitting at Morton game,clueless as to whats goin on and time wasted waiting was not recompenced.

     

    Its a mess.

     

    Its implementation,its calls,a mess,

    I’m saying no more as he was a Eucharistic Minister, just think about that in the context of honesty , integrity and credibility.

  31. Hot Smoked on

    If any neutral observer were to be asked re those two `incidents:

     

    a) Both Reds;

     

    b) Neither Reds;

     

    c) One Red and one nothing .

     

     

    I feel the majority would go for c) but get the wrong one !!

  33. stebhoy on

    VAR in scotland is just warming up – more disgusting decisions coming , see tomorrow its that predictable!

  37. stebhoy on

    Daniel phillips st Johnstone looks like a decent midfielder with a burst of pace – goes past rangers midfield with ease! Montgomery at left back is are physical than bernabei

  38. dessybhoy on

    Penalty justified arm away from the body ,Clark Red harsh, Jack lucky to get away with endangering an opponent, Bell and Fleeting who are on Sportscene Final Score.

  41. stebhoy on

    anyone can pick out individual decisions ALL over Scotland week over week – the issue is the pattern! how one team can benefit and avoid controversy is noting short of cheating!
