I noticed all the big teams aren't playing this weekend because of the international friendlies it's only the smaller lesser teams playing competitive games this week 😀 that tells us all something about you know who? Would like to see rogic get his contract seems now to be saying the right things about staying think hos agent was upto no good seeing pound signs. Will be big changes this summer lots of comings and goings be interesting to see if the board have actually been holding back cash last four years.

I wouldn't hold my breath over the hidden millions but you never know.

Noticed that one of those lesser teams let in another 3 today! What's that 6 in 2 games? And we're meant to terrified about these 2nd raters! Don't make me laugh! As much as I've been critical of Our team this season can u imagine the sevco loving medias reaction if we conceded 6 goals in 2 games? And we're in the big league!

The last thing we need is lots of comings and goings . Doing that only upsets any team work and team spirit that should exist . I want to see many of those who don't feature leaving, but that will only happen if their contract has ended, experience has shown that we find it difficult to move on players surplus to requirements. We do indeed need players in, but this window at least let us try for one or two quality players who will make a difference.

Beave81 fully agree with your comments about playing a poor lower league team who have conceded 6 in 2 games. So you are correct this should be a walkover. So let's see what Ronny produces then maybe we can asses where we really are as a team. I am no where as confident as you regarding a game that should be a no contest but hope you are spot on and I am wrong. If I am it will be the first time this season. I think we will win but my bet is2-1 which really is a joke.

{Ed007's Note - You've not been wrong this season? It's only over the last couple of weeks you've learnt to spell the manager's name right! After that episode I don't know how anyone can even think about taking anything you say seriously.}

Was in the car had snyde on for a bit keevins actually questioning the man with the magic hat and the zombies were up in arms defending the chosen on who by the way is a tactical genius BTW? Lol a few hoops fans stating if that was Ronnie making these subs and causing almost collapses late in games the burning torches would be out by the Scottish media? Oh and also why were the massive newest team in Scottish football only able to name five subs money that tight? Lol.

Football has proving that with footballers giving it their all any team can win any football match, if Clyde could beat us why can't Rangers? The bias on this side against rangers is certainly A requirement and I'm the first to admit that I look at them through green and white glasses but it's starting to become somewhat of an obsession for some, legally speaking they are not the same company however football wise it's the same blue nose high and mighty God save the queen signing club we have always had beside us. Can we not put this to bed and just bask in being so far ahead of them in all departments and look forward to backing the boys in green in the semis/ next season when their finally make it up to the top level.

Beav81, they might have lost three goals but they scored four. One more goal than the opposition is all that is needed.

Ed 007 strange that you can make a comment about me but when I reply you don't print it. is that how you run your site? Obviously it is. You probably won't print this either.

{Ed007's Note - Both your posts were sitting waiting for me, Jonniemac. I've deleted the other one now though, JonnyCam.}

kerp up the good work Ed.

{Ed007's Note - As long as you 'kerp' on entertaining me, Canjohnmy.}

27 Mar 2016 14:20:25
Ed you make me snigger 😂 straight to the point got to love it.

{Ed007's Note - I've got loads of anagrams from the different ways to spell Johnnymac/Johnniemac too (giggle)

Ronnie Delicious, I wouldn't like to share the same sleeping arrangements you advocate . Spend Spend other people's money, cheat and fiddle the queen and her subjects and lie down in a bed designed by u and everything is clear .

Anyone sticking up for Mulgrew and wanting to see him at CB regularly needs their head examined. The way he lost Kris Boyd against Killie was absolutely criminal, Kris fecking Boyd. If he can't handle Boyd then the future isn't bright for him in that position. Needs to be jettisoned out the door come the Summer. Skip to 23 seconds in to watch his horror show moment.

I'm not a massive mulgrew fan but defence has been looking a bit better since him and Erik have been playing there lately.

If I show you a video of Griffiths missing a penalty would you say he needs to be jettisoned out the door?

26 Mar 2016 08:45:10
Celticforever has never had a good thing to say about anything always looking for a negative. no one said he was perfect at cb but has been a lot better than what was on show before he moved back there and what he was like in midfield.

26 Mar 2016 09:19:32
Utter nonsense Celticforever! The defence has looked much more steady and calm since mulgrew went back in there! Would u prefer boyata or ambrose in there? If u say yes u need your head examined! Yes big mulgrew isn't a world beater, but no player in our team is! But he has qualities that the other two will never have! With big jozo now out for the season Erick and big mulgrew are the partnership for the run in! U could show a clip of any player making mistakes and judge him! In fact I think ambrose box sets comin out soon! Give mulgrew a break for gods sake! He's been a good servant for us and nobody can argue with that! Remember he's just back from long term injury to! With him and erik at the back I'm a hell of a lot more confident than if any the other two were in the team!

Beav I think the problem is more about Mulgrew being the best of a poor bunch. The way we try and play does leave us open at the back. If you look at the Killie game they had 3 or 4 very good chances and Boyd loses his man time and time again but if you look at how many times we gave the ball away in midfield and then there was no covering midfielder to help out so the Killie player was right on top of our centre backs. Mulgrew or anyone is going to get exposed and he is not as quick as he was but a lot of this is down to the players in front of him. To be fair I thought the Killie game was one of the worst displays I have seen all season so it's not all down to Mulgrew.

Celtic forever you should add moaning onto the end of your login name. Tell us two good things about Celtic recently? Just two things.

26 Mar 2016 10:42:52
Mulgrew is no where near good enough to be a celtic centre half
This argument about us being steadier and keeping clean sheets were used about ambrose when he had a good run before the semi final
Mulgrew was shocking it that position early in the season.
But because of injury he is the best option we have at this moment in time for me.
Boyata and ambrose are no goes
If Janko was fit in would move Lustig inside.
At end of season I'd let mulgrew leave.

If you look back over 10/ 12 years you will see we have always had problems with reliable central defenders - with the possible exception of Denayer and VVD.
Mastorovic, Tebily, Loovens, Caldwell, McManus, Henchoz, Rogne, Hooiveld, Ambrose and Mulgrew are just a few off the top of my head that have had inconsistent spells in the heart of the defence to say the least, but have had better players than we have in the current team in front of them.
We have a potential pairing of Schiavchenko and Sumonovic that has been hampered by long spells of injury that would seem to be the managers preferred option; but we haven't seen enough of them yet.
I would hope that we would address our deficiencies at the back and up front during the next window and prune the squad of the glut of midfield players that are surplus to requirement.

Celtic for ever . All experts seem to agree at this stage of the Campaign it's results that count . Neither Killie or Boyd scored against Celtic . I agree Mulgrew should have been a wee bit closer to Boyd, but with the attitude referees have against Celtic, if he got really close, ref would probably given Killie a pen .
In the first instance where Boyd actually got something on the ball the angle was so narrow that there was no way Boyd could score . Just not possible, Unless Gordon ran away .

Anyway your point is stupid as it isn't a criminal offence in Scotland to give a striker space .
Some people may even think that with Mulgrew missing football for mths he could be rusty.
