Pre season games usual and people are panicking we play I Scotland that was Lyon best team out and lennon wanted to give every body a game so why worry the trophy means nothing it's all about play time it's only a friendly give them a chance as it's been hard they will be ok as they kept going lennon did the right thing.

C'mon Rapala no excuses Lyon only made 9 changes and brought in 150 million pound worth of talent compared with the team they put out against the Champions elect 🤣🤣# MedalsB4Hotels 🤣🤣.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 23:46:38
Who is panicking it was a dead rubber friendly? I thought both sets of bhoys played well in spells against a full strength Lyon side at their own ground. Only negatives really was the result and Boli 🤣.

I'm absolutely disgusted with that tonight. If Peter Lawwell hadn't forced Dembele out the Club behind Rodgers back we could have drew a preseason friendly tonight. 🤬🤬
All these stories about hotels and extending the main stand are just smoke screens to hide the fact that we waste millions of pounds on players not good enough and the time & money on nurturing youth players who lose to the team that finished 3rd in France and are still in the CL.

Here we go again!

The one thing that's glaringly obvious watching tonight's game is Bollingoli isn't good enough. Thought the rest have done well tho.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

18 Jul 2020 21:28:35
Taylor is just as bad if not worse than Boli

Both should be punted.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 21:37:50
Aye so he is Kev T2 🤡 Away and celebrate your glorious pre season cup win🤣.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 21:40:30
Boli is an absolute bombscare, he's basically a pacey ambrose. I think Taylor has been a big improvement on boli but we've been spoiled in that LB position the last few years.

Agree1 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 21:52:18
It’s plain to see that Boli is never going to be good enough to play for Celtic in any capacity. After the last game against Nice, Boli was the only negative.
Taylor looked good the other night and I would sign an experienced left back to compete with Taylor.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 22:05:02
Yeah Boli looks like a fish out of water his positional play and first touch is absolutely murder. Taylor is a real solid player he just doesn't have that burst of pace to beat his man. Agree someone experienced to compete with him is needed. Thought Biton cruised the first hour with a cigar in his mouth. And have to admit I was hiding behind the sofa when Elhamed was clutching his ankle glad to see he carried on though.

Agree1 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 22:17:28
His passing is atrocious young Taylor way ahead of him.

Agree2 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 23:09:28
taylor looks to be pushing much further up the field and his crossing is looking on point. I'd be happy to have him as left back with someone else to compete with him.

Agree1 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 23:52:55
I'm surprised the Hickey deal hasn't been done by now, Maybe the interest isn't there anymore. Although Frimpong took all the plaudits last season I've been more impressed with Taylor in pre season.

Agree0 Disagree0

19 Jul 2020 03:32:18
Oh no. The panty wetters are out in force. Its s pre sesson kick about. Means nothing. Like dancing with your sister. Lol.

Agree0 Disagree0

19 Jul 2020 09:14:23
Aussie, I don't think anyone in this thread has said anything to justify calling them "panty wetters". clearly everyone has stated the glaringly obvious fact that Boli isn't good enough and that Taylor has been performing well. What should we do instead? Overlook the fact he's not good enough for this level and claim he's the next Roberto Carlos?

Agree0 Disagree0

19 Jul 2020 09:19:54
Aussie Ray
Yes its friendlies and its about match fitness doesn't take away that Boli looked out of place.
Like the look of young Henderson. Glimpses of talent from Soro and the Polish Paddy time will tell.

Agree0 Disagree0

19 Jul 2020 11:32:28
Seemed strange to play Henderson on LW maybe he'll be used as cover for Moi seeing as Mikey needs an operation.

Agree0 Disagree0

19 Jul 2020 13:26:51
Oh Stevie your the clown 🤡, Taylor is stinking and just because I think he’s poor doesn’t mean I support Sevco

Taylor is on par with Ralston - recall you’re comments about him ya 🤡.

The starting 11 for tonight does he swap Christie for Ntcham in main 11 or stick with same two set ups?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

18 Jul 2020 13:35:12
Apparently the team that finished against nice gets the first 60 against lyon.
Don't know if that's true or not.
I might have been drunk when I heard that.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 13:50:37
Maybe if we play both those teams at once we might get a result?

For pre season games I thought when our first 11 was on the park we looked really good for not having had played a game since March I was actually impressed by how good we looked.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 13:01:12
Could do without this PSG game on Tuesday, it will end up doing more harm than good. That mob are getting themselves finally tuned for the Qtr finals of the CL on the 12th Aug and seem to be using everyone they play for shooting in practice😂😂 If we get a heavy defeat which is very possible, I can see the frenzy many of our own supporters and the media will get themselves into.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

18 Jul 2020 13:14:50
It's getting us prepared for the season ahead to see who can cut it. It can only make us better. Some fans moan about everything that's Celtic fans.
I'm feeling gd and look forward to it. Lenny will drum it in to them. The gd thing is our defence will get tested keep them up to speed.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 13:33:04
So Andy if we're on the end of a pasting does that mean none of them can cut it in your book? Our defence will get a big enough test today with Lyon making 9 changes from Thursday and starting with the team that's likely to start against Juventus in CL in a couple of weeks.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 14:02:52
The C.V. has deeply influenced our preparation making it three difficult (away) opponents in succession, pre-season, but considering the situation with empty stadia there won't be the intimidating atmosphere; but also, unfortunately no high profile curtain-raiser at Celtic Park. The main thing is to get fitness/ sharpness up to speed.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 15:05:55
Theses games are about getting minutes into the players legs we get beat so what. sevco win the pre season cup every year and we won the real cups.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 16:04:49
If we get beat heavily I'm off of here until we have got a 10 pt lead in the league 🤣🤣.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 19:22:47
It all about getting us ready for the new season. I don't care if we get a pasting it does not matter. As long as the lads make a gd a count of themselves and try. Soro is on klamila is on let's see what we need to do.
It's all about how we play as a team they are up against a gd team what's wrong to believe we will win both games. Big dumbelle left us the lads know what exspect.
We want hard game against the best teams. It's Gona be a long season.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 19:34:53
Sorry but I never think or will except us getting a pasting from anyone we play or should play to win in any game excepting a pasting is giving up We are winners and shouldn't expect second place for any game.

Agree0 Disagree0

Just shows what it takes to rummel up the soft southerners. A Lanarkshire guy with his heart on his sleeve getting tore into them at training and they're telling him to tone it down? Maybe one day they'll understand what dying for the cause is all about.

What about Leeds Ed with your man Bielsa?! Read a lot about him and his techniques he's some man! Why has it taken him this long to find his way over to Britain? Must admit couldn't see the fuss when the media went tonto at him spying on poor Frank ad have done the same myself.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed007's Note - I'm delighted for him and Leeds, they're a massive club who should be in the Pub League and pushing at the top end of it too. I think Bielsa's different approach to things scared off a lot of English clubs away and the fact he couldn't speak a word of English didn't help his case.
He would have been a fantastic appointment for us 😢

18 Jul 2020 12:09:46
No half Ed! He’s spent buttons and got them millions. A mind you saying he would have been your dream appointment. Leeds is a dump of a place but the clubs got massive potential.

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - Have you ever been to Burnley? It's a complete tip of a place, like a real life Hovis advert but the people all look like they should be in The League of Gentleman!}

Fascist right wing support. Hope they go straight back down.

18 Jul 2020 15:31:53
Ed, careful, I'm only 2 miles from Larkhall. At least Stonehouse isn't as bad as Port Glasgow.

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - The Stonehouse Klan look down on their Larkhall brothers because there's a Chapel and Catholic school there. I don't know if I've ever been to Port Glasgow.}

A boy in work moved from blackwood to stonehouse cos it was stauncher. 😂 bellend.

Apparently the papers are lodged for the new hotel and museum. kets hope it gets the go ahead.

@mallythetally67 we do not use words like "lodged" on here lol try submitted.

18 Jul 2020 12:36:32
Timalloy- now that was funny 😄
In response to the post Museums or hotels will not win us games we require better players especially for this important season. I just get the feeling that we are settling for what we have and hoping that it will be good enough to see us through.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 12:47:30
@lawman45 the Hotel, museum and bigger club shop will benefit club for years to come. The museum will attract more visitors to the area. Our hotel and larger club shop will give Celtic extra income every year, it will also give people jobs and improve the whole area.

Agree1 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 12:51:52
Tim so sorry am on the naughty step 😅😅.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 13:21:13
You tell him timalloy 🤣🤣
Agreed nice hotel more jobs in the area new museum etc parkhead will look great the emerates etc.
Planning for the future it's exciting. Now maybe a we sneaking proven goal scoring in the transfer window. Also Celtic are fairly clearing out lads not much left.
Soro klamila fingers crossed.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 13:41:33
Guys I understand the whole it will benefit us in the future outlook on things and I'm all for it but in the here and now I'm not getting a sense of urgency from the club to get the players in we need to make this potential historic year one that we can enjoy instead of one where we stumble over the line. Maybe I'm just overthinking things.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2020 15:08:15
Dont think this will impact what we're doing in the market.
