I really despise the international breaks. First of all I have no interest in international football and will rarely watch a match. Secondly, we always run the risk of players getting injured or returning late after a massive journey from the other side of the world. Thirdly, it gives our manager less time to work with players and get them ready for the next match. Fourthly, I find it really boring as often have to go a couple of weeks without watching my team.

I don't like the international breaks either. I don't mind watching the actual tournaments, but these qualifiers don't interest me at all.
Could they not play these games at the end of the season in one go and get them out of the way?, if clubs could play during these international breaks then the season could finish about a month earlier, then the national teams can play till their hearts content.

Summed it up well Rab; These breaks just spoil a season and hamper the preparation, momentum and sometimes the fitness of our players.
Delighted Scott Brown has packed it in though and would others like LG to do the same - as WGS hardly plays them anyway?

anyone playing an international match gets experience playing against better players in different systems in ranging conditions. Celtics problems is the Scottish league is not always hard enough to progress some of the players careers.

Players can get injured carrying in the shopping from the car and if you worry about getting injured, then you probably will. A good run in qualifying or a tournament can also add value to a player.

You all sound miserable get a vodka down ya and get on bits and pieces! still tickets for tomorrow :) £30.

I had chance of hospitality tickets a while back as my mother in law won them on the radio and I knocked them back. So can't see me paying to watch that pish.

International games are far more frequent than they were even ten years ago . Groups for World Cup and UEFA championship have grown from 6/ 8 to 12/ 14 . These extra games makes life more difficult for club managers and the clubs in general . R O I are playing their games on Thursday and Sunday which is a good thing for the clubs .
Finally Celtic's big problem is that they have International players from nearly every corner of the globe, making travelling a major problem.

Playing for your country is the stuff of dreams, whoever your country is, good bad or shite.

I geniunely lost interest since USA 94. Even international football is business now. If a player is an international cap, he is worth more £. These tournaments are like shop windows now rather than football.

Am the same rab, have got little interest unless it's a big match. Thing is for a lot of players it's the pinnacle of their career to play in tournaments. We just need to learn to live with it mate. Am wae Dan it's swally time.

its not just the fact that the int game is on - you just get no info on your own team from the usual media outlets

even the tumbleweed is rolling around in here

whereas the banter is flowing leading up any game but esp up to CL and OF games.

08 Oct 2016 16:05:51
that is the problem with media! sometimes there is no news and better to have no news than some pointless story to fill a page.

Talking of banter, did anybody else think still game was a bit rubbish last night? I thought the live show was a low point but last night was scraping the barrel big time. Slow and predictable.

there must be something happening inside celtic - surely the club doesn't close to go watch Scotland.

much preferred chewin the fat - not a big fan of still game.

There are a hell of a lot of players who seem to dream of playing for a bigger more successful International team than the team of their birth . Some managers like WGS must have weird dreams about players playing for Scotland, for example Chris Martin.

Most Celtic players could arguably be playing for worse players whilst on International Duty or at best worse motivated players .
