My team for tomorrow

Gordon GK
Lustig RB
Boyata RCB
Sumo LCB
Tierney LB
Forrest RM
Armstrong RCM
Mulgrew LCM
Izzy LM
Commons CAM

Ambrose in for Mulgrew if not fit and Rogic for commons if he doesn't make it.

Gordon

Lustig Boyata Simunovic izzy

Armstrong Allan

Forrest Rogic Stokes

Griffith

I wouldn't be fussed to see tierney over izzy and would rather see stokes ahead of gms who has shown nothing this season, I'd also go for Allan ahead of a defender in midfield or a player who's just back from injury.

Agree1 Disagree1

26 Nov 2015 03:54:35
Dont think we will ever see stokes in a celtic shirt while deila is there.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Nov 2015 08:05:50
Your prob right big D but I'd like to know the real issue as I don't think it's purely fitness related. With commons andJohansen out and gms and Armstrong being very poor out left I would revert to the player who played there for a large part of last season and who has experience.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Nov 2015 09:57:22
Would anyone give Ciftci a chance out wide? GMS can't buy a good game atm.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Nov 2015 10:10:44
Based on injuries etc. I'm not even sure who's all carrying knocks

Gordon

Lustig
Mulgrew
Simunovic
Tierney

Armstrong
Allan

Forrest
Rogic
Mckay-stevens

Griffiths

Not sure why i'd pick Mulgrew over Boyata but I am. ha ha.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Nov 2015 10:53:03
Think that's Mulgrews best position, playing centre back.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Nov 2015 13:22:31
Do any of you think he'll go with Ciftci up top and drop Griffiths in one?

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Nov 2015 14:18:42
Surely if he was going to play one on the left it would be Cifti Kevbhoy?

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Nov 2015 15:36:28
Jim1972 from what I've heard its a lot to do with his off field antics. I know for a fact last season he was not allowed out on a night out without someone "babysitting" him due to this. I personally would rather have him in squad than Cifti.

GK Gordon

LB Tierney
CB Boyata
CB Jozo
RB Lustig

CDM Armstrong
CDM Mulgrew

LW GMS
RW Florist

CAM Rogic

CF Griffiths

Although we have injury problems, we have a lot of options for CDM positions. I hope we sign a couple of wingers in January.

Looking likely we will see Scott Allan make debut at some point tonight.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Nov 2015 15:48:51
Gordon

Lustig
Boyata
Simunovic
Tierney

Armstrong
Mulgrew

Forrest

Wouldn't mind seeing that with probably GMS/Allan getting on.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Nov 2015 18:07:31
Bially

Lustig
Boyata/Play with 10 men/Tramp from street
Simunovic
Teirney

Allan
Armstrong

Forrest
Rogic
GMS

Griffiths.

Agree0 Disagree1

26 Nov 2015 18:26:07
@cmcbhoy Maybe, either way I wouldn't put him in. Ajax can be got at with pace and direct running so I'd have Forrest and probably GMS or possibly even Izzy on the left wing. Whatever happened to Janko? I would have liked to have seen him at RB with Lustig and Jozo at CB.

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Nov 2015 18:13:45
Have we ever had a full season out of brown?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed007's Note - Brown's appearance record since joining is in season 2007–08 he made 48 appearances; 2008–09 -48 apps; 2009–10 - 30 apps; 2010–11 - 39 apps; 2011–12 - 32 apps; 2012–13 - 33 apps; 2013–14 - 50 apps; 2014–15 - 48 apps. That's 328 matches over the previous 8 seasons, averaging at 41 games per season - and he has played 16 times so far this season.

26 Nov 2015 10:01:36
It's not bad at all really considering internationals and how early our season can start. Past couple seasons he's been playing through pain or on meds. Probably just his resiliant character more than anything but perhaps we need to start being a lot more cautious with him at 30.

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Nov 2015 17:34:36
Have got to say with all the injuries/fitness issues we have for tomoz nite I am really worried about it in the cold light of day.
But come match time I will believe we can win.
The team will defo be interesting tho.

Believable1 Unbelievable2

25 Nov 2015 19:27:30
Rayman make your mind up. One minute your saying we will get horsed by ajax next your saying we can win. No doubt you will be secretly praying we get beat so you can slate Deila.

Agree2 Disagree1

25 Nov 2015 19:36:04
Am with u rayman, always been the same with the European games and the old derby we used to play. Ad be bricking it all week then come kick off the game would be in the bag, in ma mind. Part n parcel of following the hoops. HH.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Nov 2015 02:00:36
I had a full statment typed there and read it and f#@k that not worth the grief but bhoys and ghirls the hoops go into battle let's support the team for 90mins see where it takes us pzise the lord for a performance oh and on a higher note CAN NOT WAIT FOR BIG BILLYS STATUE WILL BE A BEAUTIFUL MOMENT HAIL HAIL THE LIONS.

26 Nov 2015 14:42:55
DN you must think I am Louis Suarez mate, I don't bite every time lol.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Nov 2015 15:11:27
Rayman was worth a try lol.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Nov 2015 16:36:50
Tho I do think if Lennon was manager we would a got thro this group.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Nov 2015 17:32:14
Your right Rayman. He is doing well at Bolton.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - And at least he's admitting he wouldn't have got us into the CL either.}

26 Nov 2015 20:58:04
At last progress with rayman ed lol.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Nov 2015 02:24:14
Are you related to Suarez DN lol.

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Nov 2015 14:40:21
Just wanted to wish our U19 team Good Luck tonight in Uefa Youth League against Puskas Academy from Hungary the lads trail 0-1 from away leg so come on the young lads and show the big team how to win in europe.

Believable5 Unbelievable2

25 Nov 2015 20:38:45
They've just gone 3-0 up.

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Nov 2015 12:55:10
Is someone able to please tell me what players are not available for the Ajax game, thanks.

Believable0 Unbelievable1

25 Nov 2015 14:51:18
Bitton and Johansen are suspended. Commons has been ill and Brown has a swollen knee but both might be available.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - Brown's out for 12 weeks, Jimbo ;(

25 Nov 2015 15:20:26
Wowza. Dunno how I missed that one! Hard to bare. I think for 3 month I'd like to see Johansen in there. Get a good run of form going in a position I think he's more comfortable in with Armstrong filling in for rotation. Not fussed about Allan at all. Got a feeling RD might throw Mulgrew straight back in for a bit of physical presence tomorrow though :/.

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - I think you might be right about Mulgrew tomorrow night in there beside Armstrong and hopefully now Johansen has had a rest he will come back refreshed and find some form in there instead of Mulgrew week to week. This is Armstrong's chance to show us and RD what he can do and without being malicious towards Brown being injured it could be a blessing for Armstrong and the team in general, players will need to step up and show some strength of character now.}

25 Nov 2015 16:43:20
Thanks Gents.

Big blow to have Brown ruled out for so long

With no Bitton, Johansen, Brown, and possibly Commons I would like to see us set up 4-4-1-1 with a Midfield 4 of Forrest Rogic Armstrong Allan with Nesbitt floating between them and Griffiths but that's not going to happen. More realistic would be Mulgrew and Armstrong holding with the 3 being Forrest Rogic Mackay-Steven.

With so many ruled out it's going to be an interesting starting line up.

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Nov 2015 16:58:25
Wouldn't have minded Guy Demel as back up in there. Big step down for him going to Dundee Utd.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - Demel should be a decent signing for Utd.}

25 Nov 2015 17:23:21
That's not good news about Brown although we should be able to cope domestically with what we have, but tomorrow night is very daunting with all that experience in one area all missing especially against a team like Ajax.
If Mulgrew can't start I would even put Ambrose in midfield as I think he could do a job. Izzaguire with Tierney behind may be another option?

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Nov 2015 17:31:57
I think you are spot on Stan pending KC.

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Nov 2015 20:28:50
Some players won't get a better chance to come in and prove their worth, If Allan is fit and doesn't start with so many midfielders ruled out i really will start to question why he is at Celtic. Now is the time to throw him in. Would love to see Nesbitt at some point, a bit like Watt v Barcelona he will be fearless and eager to impress, Get him in Ronny and let him run riot.

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Nov 2015 21:48:33
great opporchancity for some players to prove themselves one way or another)
RD should know who is up for it and we should go out and have a go. very little to lose now.

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Nov 2015 09:01:54

25 Nov 2015 14:12:29
No probs ed 👌

Chris1888.

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - I've spoken to the lad that runs it, Chris and he says about only 300 folk getting access is nonsense. Then he started talking about a DNS for tomorrow's game and something about streaming from the USA, both of which means absolutely hee-haw to me!}

25 Nov 2015 14:58:27
There are a few more addons you can try mate. I've had success with zeus, daffy and dexter. They sometimes go offline for repairs but are worth a go if you are struggling as they have loads of sports channels listed inc bt and sky.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - (yes)

25 Nov 2015 15:17:43
Its prob the reason why some of us can get it and most of us cant. can't rememba wer i read it? . but yeah that means nuffin to me aswell unless i can git celtic lol. av got zeus aswell but couldn't get celtic link either on that. best fing to do is jus go to paradise! 🍀

If its just sky sports and bt sports you want to see go to phoenix tv and select Woody. Cracking streams for those channels

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - Apart from sports what other add ons do you all use most? I think the UKTurk one is brilliant for classic TV shows and documentaries, I can always find something on there to watch.}

25 Nov 2015 17:16:46
WWS with MX player works everytime for me. Just scroll through em on BT or sky channels.

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Nov 2015 17:32:30
Uk turks is crackin for stand up comedy and concerts too. In phoenix Rockcrusher Stael2014 and TNPB has got endless things to watch. Never knew about Robocop until you mentioned it a few months ago and have been impressed with premier league pass when you can watch any Epl game live at 3pm on a Saturday, the quality of picture is unbelievable. For boxsets and movies Genesis SALTS online movies pro, popcorn flix are all good..Best hundred quid I've spent on my T8. Think you might have to open up a new topic on Android boxes ed.

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - There's an android page that's just seems to be Ed001 talking to himself on it:
