It's what I call a great day at the bookies too.

Fantastic stuff from the debut Bhoys and so far, another fine display of pressuring, possession and passing.
All I would ask for is a few more goals as we continue to squander chances created by consistently good play.
I will also add (while we are on a winning run so it can't be construed as sour grapes) that the 'honest mistake merchants' are at it every single week with dubious and inconsistent decisions.

Well done JimTim, cleaned up myself with that laste Chelsea goal mate
Tell you a bet though for future
Celtic game first goal 0-10 mins that's 3 in a row noo and looks as though how they are set up!

Good shout to be fair that. We do fly out the blocks. Think its the whole pressure thing. Domestically anyways. Hit them hard from the off. Then apply a steady but not too exertive pressure until we can pick holes and capitalise on mistakes. We're even seeing the same sort of thing at the start of second halves too. We're definitely due a 9-0 this season at some point.

Aye the bookies.
Guingamp drew with a 4th division mob in the French cup and done me for a wedge. Love it haha. Excellent from the bhoys tonight though and hopefully another win to nil at the weekend we'll go into the Inter game buzzing and with no fear.

Morning Ed & Bhoys. What are your thoughts on the new outrageous TV deal negotiated in England? Personally, I can't see how the TV companies, especially Sky can possibly make any money. It looks like each match is working out around £11million each. Advertising will not even come close to reaching this amount so I assume that broadcasting rights are weighed heavily in the equasion.
Let's face it, Stoke v Crystal Palace on a Wednesday night isn't exactly a crowd puller. I got rid of Sky last year and apart from missing the Celtic games, I couldn't give a monkeys about the Prem.
Maybe I'm not that business minded but I think Sky have shot themselves in the foot this time.

{Ed013's Note - Morning Big Rab, it means that the Premier League is pushed further and further away from the lower leagues and on only rare occasions will anyone break into the so called top 6. Too much money for a once beautiful game! Anyone for Tennis ;-)

ED013 and Big Rab you would hope that once this new deal kicks the clubs will cut both season tickets and entrance fees, adopt a grass roots club in their area and fund them, fund other small league teams and maybe even subsidise their own fans going to games both home and away it would cost them a pittance from the extra money to do this

Timalloy, of course what you say all makes sense, but as a Celtic fan I hope to God EPL clubs remain as greedy as before . Just imagine if the EPL clubs provided subsidised transport to the game and charged between £10/15 admission, our supporters would expect Celtic to do the same and if Celtic didn't match, bus loads of fans would be leaving Scotland for every Epl match .

It's a double edged sword, the more money the teams get from tv, the bigger wage packets the players get.

I suppose the players could argue they are entitled to get more money if the club's get more .
The horrible thing is that the evil scrounges of agents that are the curse of football, also get more .
