What a cracking day we “had, he was over the moon when I asked him “what would be the best thing ever today n he replied “to go to Hampden” then I handed him the ticket and said “we’ll let's go then”. His reaction couldn’t have been better.

Great stuff Stu! Hope the Wee man had a great day! First leg of the treble in the bag! Wednesday was tough to take no doubt but getting your hands on silverware is the best way to get over that! Welsbhoy exactly how is it u get tickets for standing section? The Wee mans been asking me for ages to try and sort some out but with work and stuff I haven’t managed to look into it! Every home game we sit in the Lisbon lions and he stares more at that than the game! Lol. any info would be appreciated buddy 🍀🍀🍀.

I thought your earlier post was good about going to surprise him but this follow-up was really heartwarming. What a great gift and what you are building are memories (for you, yes but more for him) . In years to come he will have a story to tell about his dad taking him for a breakfast and then hitting him with a cup-final ticket. Well done you.

I don't think we have improved over this time last year. None of our summer transfers featured today so basically its the same team that won the league cup last season. We have brought in 5 or 6 new players from last season. Ntcham only one to feature and he never got on the pitch. that's a bit of a worry. Maybe this is as good as we get but don't feel we got out of third gear today. We don't take teams apart any more.
Agree1
Disagree3
26 Nov 2017 18:56:10
There are definitely two or three that are nowhere near the form of last season and we have had a few injury problems so I believe we have yet to reach our peak and this makes the 65 game run - and another trophy even more amazing.
I agree the players brought in have yet to make an impact but we are choked with midfield options and guys like Hayes, Ntcham, Benyu and Eboue are competing against today's starters plus Bitton, rogic and Henderson when fit.
I do think we need to bring in more quality for the CL - especially in defences and that could get even more complicated if we lose Moussa or more?
Agree0

26 Nov 2017 19:49:23
I don't think we have a better first 11 than last year but we do have a better squad. If we beat Anderlecht we've doubled our CL points from last season and remain unbeaten domestically, have Europe after christmas so results are an improvement on last year, I agree though we don't take teams apart as often as we did, though we control games more than last season.

Disappointed with Sinclair at the penalty. He's not the first nor the last to do that but hate to see it. Feel we would have won without the pen. Surely now James Forrest has put to bed the does he doesn't he debate? . The bhoy was outstanding ☘ oh and get the bhoy Moult in this January. reminds me of big bad John.

Was never a pen, if a decision like that today went against us we'd all be raging. Personally i don't see it as cheating by Sinclair, i see it as poor refereeing from Thompson. He has to be stronger in that situation. There was minimal contact on Sinclair but no where near enough to merit a penalty never mind a red card. Very very poor decision by Thompson yet again.

I totally disagree, Sinclair certainly isn’t a cheat as you both state, he was taken down deliberately by his left shoulder.
Definitely not a sending off though but he should have been sent off with that ridiculous chanange on Dembele. Well done Celtic, well deserved winners in any ways, the best team won. 👏🍀🇮🇪.
Agree2

{Ed007's Note - After the game I seen it from an angle behind the goal and you can see where Kipre pulled on Sinclairs left arm/shoulder, in slow motion it looks soft but when you think that Sinclair is running full pelt it wouldn't take much to knock him off his feet. The red card decision was a strange one.}
26 Nov 2017 18:55:23
The centre half should’ve been off after about 10mins for foul on Dembele, McHugh should’ve been off, Sinclair should’ve been booked for diving, ref was pretty poor. I thought overall we done enough to win, it’s another trophy and the double treble will prob rest on winning the Scottish Cup, but I agree, think we need couple new players that will improve team again👍.

26 Nov 2017 19:04:11

what a lot of crap , fair play its a contact sport no arguments there, but the boy lifted his hands to impede sinclair no matter how soft you all think it was , it was a foul and outside the box noone wouldve even blinked an eye its only because the boy got a red card ( which was totally wrong by the ref ) that everyones going on about it, sinclair never cheated end off the day we won the cup.

Like Sinclair said after the game, he felt a contact so he went down, but that's all wrong, you shouldn't go down just because you feel a contact, you shouldn't go down at all, you should get put down, or get impeded, so you can't do what you want, before the ref gives a penalty, every thing else is just plain diving, was listening to talksport last night, they were discussing the very thing, don't know who was talking, some ex professional, but think he was saying yeah it was better to go down and get the penalty rather than carry on and have a chance of scoring, that kind of thinking needs to be taken out of football.

I couldn't see what exactly happened whilst match was going on as I was down in the corner that Celtic were defending . Based on what I saw in clips after the game there was decent contract and as the MSSM tell us freguently when the pboot is on the other foot and A pen is awarded against Celtic, the Well defender give the ref reason to award pen .
The new rules indicate that ref having given penalty was correct to give red card .
Football is a game of opinions and everyone is entitled to their opinion .
What is questionable on a Celtic forum is to quote from Talk Sport . Talk Sport is as bias as Radio Clyde with big D Johnstone spouting his rage .

I was just going to mention in a separate post about Gordon's save. I don't think it would have changed the end result had it gone in but it would definitely made it uncomfortable. Fantastic reactions. The game itself was pedestrian at times and I really think that we could have put them to the sword today which might have planted some doubt in their minds for the next two games.

Celtic 25/ 1 to win in extra time and 18/ 1 penalties.
But bets I am doing Motherwell 40+booking points 7/ 2
Penalty 9/ 4
Moult anytime scorer 9/ 4
I fancy Sinclair 9/ 4 and Rogic 9/ 4 to score both seem to keep their goals for big occasions
I am putting a quid on some fun bets
6-2 100/ 1, 7-1 150/ 1, 8-0 200/ 1

They have been talking themselves up for a while and although they put themselves about and Moult is very capable of scoring - I fancy us to take the Paris hurt out on them with a return to the pace and space of domestic games. Moussa can do anything moult can and much more and Armstrong is due a big performnce and a goal.
Just hope that rat Thomson doesn't spoil a good day.
