Fixtures are out and the management team are in-situ at Bobbylennoxtown; the air of anticipation for a new chapter in a 126-year-old story lies heavy over Celtic supporters. I wish we were starting tomorrow.
If you are a Celtic player, what would your overbearing sentiment be today? If it was me, looking at photos of those two white-shirted fitness freaks at the Training Centre today, I’d be tempted to get out for a run, before the real business starts next week.
There are only a few things a manager can do in his first few days in charge of a new squad but setting standards for fitness and training are two clear examples. Monitoring is not just about stepping on the scales anymore, the players will have their body fat, glycogen levels and heart beats documented from when they get back and throughout the season thereafter. With benchmarks for all, as well as performances. I’m feeling tired even thinking about it.

Wonder if they think Suarez is match fit now?
If England score that will be cross and header. Uruguay do not cope well with crosses into their penalty box.
I love the sound of straw clutching in the evening..

No, no trick. He turned 100 that year, and passed away after the tournament had been played in 2010.
Francisco Varallo.

May have a point there, but technically just doing the simple things like controlling the ball, passing and moving.
They are light years ahead of us. Statistically is doesnt make sense
If Uruguay win, with which Liverpool teammate will Suarez swop jerseys with?
HH!!
Agree totally with view that our PR dept need to grow a pair. No need to be rude about it just make it clear questions should relate to Celtic or team’s we are playing or likely to play. E.g Aberdeen, Ross County, Barcelona, etc

Home before the postcards?? ;-))
This is not over unless Uruguay score a second

There is no link from midfield to the four up front. Henderson has not put a forward pass yet.
Brines cannot get past his man.
Another golden generation ?
Wiltshire and LuaLan on Henderson and Wellbeck hooked.
Like I really care
How do we know the Scottish press weren’t already briefed?
Hasn’t stopped them in the past.

Agree, Cavani is top class. Think the U’s will score 3 now. Hope so. :)
2 against 6 for the goal, Die Insel Affen have no defence…

Fraser Foster would have saved that!
Sitting here in deepest Arranmore I said to my bro, “I’m logging on to CQN to see who is first to say, “Fraser Foster would have saved that.”
I would have added, “Cos he’s taller”
Suarez’s reading of the pass and his movement and then the finish were all world class.
HatsofftohimCSC
Suarez is not match fit,normally he chases down everything,
I’ll be amazed he finishes the game…..a quality cross and a
great finish…..England now Scotland…..well played, but away
home,the big bhoy’s ur playin!!!!

Somebody was going to say it! thought I would jump in first:)

Do you think the decision to play an unfit Suarez failed to pay off?
I wouldn’t write England off yet.
Uruguay are a very ordinary side.
Poor game, two evenly matched teams, one world class player on the pitch and that is the difference so far.
Still think England will score and can see Godin being sent off. When will determine who wins, if anyone.

Think the Uruguay Doc is getting the wee biter’s shirt. Saw many wumman in Cumbernauld today, whose erses were scraping the pavement. Wish I was in Italia! ;)
I thought Hart was shampoo at the goal to be honest

===================
“Grow a pair ” the unforgettable whisper twixt Mark McGee’s Eyeliners and myself at an Open Meeting in 2011 .
In answering I would have said
” Listen carefully, I am going to answer this question only once. I appreciate some might think it newsworthy and today I will indulge them. But only today. If this question or any reference to past differences with Scott Brown are asked, they will be deemed to have malevolent intent, to create division within the club where none exist and anyone asking such a question will be shown the door” (or invited to pick a windae)
TCR canny believe I am in agreement with you,
you normally post a lot of pish :-}}
