Thought we played ok especially 2nd half kick on now and go on a run created 5 great chances on another day they go in young Morgan looked decent but what was boyata thinking about watched the replay he was ask ing to get sent off.

Looks like us or The Rangers with have to play 2 days after a European game for the semi final.
Who's your money on getting hit with that bhoy and ghirls?

I’m not a betting man but I’ll go with us Kev?

26 Sep 2018 22:38:23
Ok so we’re both playing on Sunday but one of us will be be playing at Murrayfield. Predictions?

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Sep 2018 22:40:46
What's wrong with Monday night?

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Sep 2018 23:24:43
My information on the semi finals is rangers play 12 30 and we play same day 7-30pm that’s what I’m hearing.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Sep 2018 23:32:42
No way the police will allow that.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Sep 2018 00:03:14
Glasgow polis won’t let us both play on the same day. Why can’t the league set a semi final date that doesn’t follow European games? The words piss up and brewery spring to mind.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Sep 2018 07:52:30
Why can't one game be on the sat and the next the following sat.

27 Sep 2018 08:26:34
Cos we both play Thursday.

Brendan didn't look himself at post match interview tonight. I'm not a phycologist but I know well pissed off when I see it.

26 Sep 2018 22:24:20
John McGinn.

Agree1 Disagree1

26 Sep 2018 22:40:11
Of course he's pissed of.
We aren't firing on all cylinders
He's taking pelters all over the place
He's had to say he's not wanting to leave almost every week for over 2 years
I'd be pissed off.

Agree2 Disagree0

27 Sep 2018 00:10:34
This is the additional pressure a Celtic Manager has to endure. Constant pish from the Scottish press about him leaving, falling out with the board, dressing room splits, not having a plan B, blah, blah, blah. and when they’re proven wrong once again at the end of the season, they’ll come back at us next year with exactly the same pish again.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Sep 2018 07:32:03
why McGinn?
If he really wanted to play for us he could have. HE chose not to sign for us.
When his career is ending he will probably come to us looking for a payday by professing his desire to wear the hoops blah blah blah.
He is history now and we know what that is about.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Sep 2018 16:19:50
I wonder who Brendan looked like at press Conference . It must have been the tan tha he has had topped up or his teeth further whitening that has made him not look himself .

Agree0 Disagree0

28 Sep 2018 13:19:19
I don't want to appear any B R, as I am not, but if he is responsible for the players recommended to board, then he has as big a responsibility for the poor return on incoming transfers as anyone and there is no point in us feeling sorry for him.
We have to hope everyone responsible stands up to the mark, take the blame and acts differentoy.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Sep 2018 21:58:36
If we had taken our chances it would've been 4 or 5. A lot better than previous weeks. Well done to Hendry - thought he was solid.

Believable2 Unbelievable0

26 Sep 2018 22:14:01
Though Morgan done well too, hope he starts this weekend.

Agree3 Disagree0

28 Sep 2018 13:24:42
We had a good second half, players all seemed more interest and we looked like scoring goals
Morgan looked the part, but for now I would continue bringing. him on in the second half when pace has died down a little, as he runs in various directions pulling tired defenders with him.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Sep 2018 21:44:26
All I can say is. thank God we have wee Griff. At least he's getting in the positions to put the ball away. From what i saw of the game we were better than previous weeks gone by. but we were very wasteful. Hopefully we can kick on now. Id start Morgan next game give him a confidence boost and see what he can do. HH.

26 Sep 2018 23:52:21
The wee man is priceless for us just now.

26 Sep 2018 21:41:42
Not the greatest, but good result, our play was better, we just need a target man. Wee griff carrying the team. HH.

Important win
Looked Much better in 2nd half but it is only st Johnston
Going to struggle for a defence at the Is rate for the semi final.

Morgan looked sharp

I hope boyata told Beaton he's a cheating blue nose bad£ard.

The big bhoy fae Leicester should be back by the next round.

{Ed007's Note - The semis aren't until 27th/28th of October (v Hearts) so plenty of time to sort it out, Kev.}

26 Sep 2018 22:17:19
Likely to be 28/ 29th now Ed. Us and rangers playing Thursday 25th in the Europa. So either someone plays Thursday-Saturday, we play Hearts at Murryfield or Monday night football.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - I was just reading about that too, it'll be interesting to see how it's going to pan out.}

26 Sep 2018 22:40:55
It will pan out with ua playing on the saturday.

Believable1 Unbelievable0

26 Sep 2018 21:47:46
Geez peace. He's tapped because we were fouled twice and then st Johnstone got the foul.
We had to put up with it all game, no wonder one of them blew up.

26 Sep 2018 21:55:36
Spot on kev, boyata bashers always find something. Hopefully said something worth the red.

26 Sep 2018 22:13:21
I'd put money on him calling him a cheat yermaws.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Sep 2018 22:37:29
Boyata bashers always find something haha. He was warned and kept going back for more when we were 1-0 up with about a minute to go! He's an person!

Agree1 Disagree1

26 Sep 2018 23:01:02
Jeb it was a nothing challenge he let himself down and his teammates watch it back the refs giving him a yellow but he keeps going so he deserved it and I like the big guy he's our best cb.

Agree0 Disagree1

26 Sep 2018 23:08:34
A don't need to find anything, how many times can one man let his team down. I know he's been playing well but that's what makes it even more frustrating. U give Beaton any chance to send u off n he's doing it, don't make it so easy for him. He's a clown. I said the same about ntcham when he got sent off for something equally stupid and I would say it about any other player that let's us down like boyata does.

Agree0 Disagree1

26 Sep 2018 23:51:11
It looked as though the ref gave him plenty of chances to shut up and go away to be fair to him. Pure petulance of the highest order.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Sep 2018 23:37:21
We have all been going mental about what the refs have been allowing to happen to our player from the second half of last year and continuing into this season.
Our players are getting blatantly assaulted and nothing is getting done.
Now one of our players blows their top about it and he's in the wrong?

Sorry not for me. Big man has my full support in this and the club should fight this all the way.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Sep 2018 00:50:39
No chance. Regardless of what boyata did in the summer or how well he's been playing he was well in the wrong. U cani go berating the ref over and over in the manner he was and get away with it. Bad example for young kids at the game or watching it and i think he went too far. Let himself and the team dwn now he will miss the semi final. Dafty.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Sep 2018 01:27:30
Initially I was annoyed at Boyata (and still am to an extent) but I’ve been wracking my brains and I don’t recall someone ever getting a straight red for dissent. 2nd booking yeah I’d agree, but Beaton should have booked him, especially given that it was the 90th minute.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Sep 2018 16:25:42
Kevbhoy I cannot recall a team having 67% of the ball and only get 3 frees in 90 mins . I remember the time the bhoys in the Jungle questioned the referees parents reputation and the lodges he belonged to even when they were less biased . Nowadays our fans prefer to criticise our own players.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Sep 2018 22:49:13
Come on Chris, there's having a go at the ref n there's going too far. He went too far in my opinion. It's crazy given our injuries plus a lot of fans, myself included still hold a grudge over his recent antics, I'm guessing some players do too.

Agree0 Disagree0

28 Sep 2018 13:27:53
Step bhoy 2 . What exactly did Boyata say to the referee on Wednesday that was going too far .

Agree0 Disagree0

28 Sep 2018 16:18:00
I've no idea what he said but he was warned plenty of times and kept shouting at him. Look maybe it was harsh but if your warned that your about to get sent off then why keep going, it's just stupid.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Sep 2018 21:10:48
Who remembers the Scott Sinclair song?

Believable2 Unbelievable2

27 Sep 2018 07:37:31
Boyata got sent off for mouthing at the ref.
imo unacceptable from a professional player who is paid good money for doing his job.
Bad enough some of the refs have an obvious agenda without giving them the ammunition.
I hope the club fine him heavily
(I have no axe to grind and would say the same on any player who gets booked or sent off for mouthing to the officials.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Sep 2018 16:33:42
Boyata got sent off and none of us were within ear shot of what was said and we don't know exactly what happened . We do know that Beaton the ref gave us 3 frees in 94 mins and we had 67% of the play . Beaton wasn't a professional referee last night he was biased but if Boyata was over the top with personal criticism of Beaton's competency as a referee, then he was in danger of punishment.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Sep 2018 20:38:46

More chance of winning the lottery same tippy tappy rubbish think Brendan needs to take them aside and say boys look what I have here it's a ball everyone say ball you too brown baw! Well done everyone, now were should the ball end up anyone? Brown replies baw! Not baw no that was the last question, boyata replys mmm to teirney or lustig? Nope good try ajar says I know the keeper omg no in the net and not your own got it! ? Brown do you agree? Baw! Ah do what you want i give up.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Sep 2018 18:16:43
Do yous think we will start with 2 up front? Here's hoping. Mcgregor and Forrest and Ntcham will be back and I would like to see Morgan get the nod to start the game. Let's get an early goal then hammer them.

Celtic Jerseys are not for Second best, they don't shrink to fit inferior players.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Sep 2018 17:38:41
Could tierney play left wing with izzy left back? Obviously don't want to change his position long term as he’s an amazing left back but he is our main threat his season and could do so much damage if he received the ball 20 yards further up the pitch and only had a full back to beat rather than a winger as well.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

26 Sep 2018 18:18:30
He could for me LH67 I believe he started out as a winger my fear is it takes our best defender out of our defence. Fair shout thought as we’re struggling to create up front more than we are defensively. For me KT is the best full back we’ve had since Danny McGrain and he’s as good defensively and better going forward than Danny was. 👍.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Sep 2018 17:05:29
Never mind Hendry he is bad enough but Lustig is done he should never play for Celtic again I watched him in the Rosenburg game he never got forward he never beat a man he never got a cross in all he did was pass the ball to Boyata or have a running argument with the north stand purely because he can't cut it anymore.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

26 Sep 2018 18:46:53
Franny he's a defender and against Rosenberg he defended well.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Sep 2018 09:15:14
Kev.

Unfortunately he is not very good at defending either ok he might have defended reasonably well against Rosenberg but check out most of the other games he has played this season he very rarely defends the crosses coming into our box we have lost a load of goals with his inability to carry out this basic art of defending.

I have always liked Lustig and I hate digging any Celtic player out but I have to be honest and say his time is up at Celtic in my opinion.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Sep 2018 15:40:47
Benkovuc out tonight so let's pray ajer is fit it it could be a tough night.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Sep 2018 13:08:32
Tonight i do not care about shape. I do not care about who we are playing or who the officials are, because tonight there is nowhere to hide. The first criteria for a jersey tonight is the size of your heart and your balls. Will you commit to the point of injury to help a team mate. Will you take a pass and move it on quickly. Do you want it?

Make no mistake most of this country are loving this. Fat baldy boyd and his views prove this conclusively. Two years of absolute and complete dominance has hurt them, bad. Whoever BR picks must be aware of what we, the whole lot of us, are facing here. They also must be aware of what they represent and what we expect.

They are waiting. Time to make them wait longer.

Hi guys
Just wondering who we are going to see partner boyata tonight, are ajer and benkovic available?

Believable1 Unbelievable0

{Ed007's Note - Ajer started back training yesterday but Benkovic still has some pain in his achilles.}

26 Sep 2018 13:06:22
So most likely see hendry tonight we think?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - Or a back 3 of Lustig, Boyata and KT?}

26 Sep 2018 13:13:46
Hopefully not a back 3 for me, KT is one of the few causing problems up the front end .
And we seem more comfortable with the 4 at the back.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Sep 2018 13:13:53
352 hopefully.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Sep 2018 16:32:29
I would prefer a back three, but not with Hendry in the team.
Was trying to find out how many games we have actually won with him in the team - as I think it's only one or two? but could't find an stats; but I did find out Celtic are his sixth club and he's only 23.

26 Sep 2018 12:00:44
This post is 1) about our younger players and why we should get behind them.
and 2) about our scouting system.
Players like Ralston, Hendry, Morgan, Johnston and Eduoard must, in my opinion, be given time and we fans should be encouraging them.
Ralston when he came into the team looked the part and then he got injured, he needs time (and games) to show what he can do.
Same with Morgan, he looks the part, is two footed and can cross a decent ball which is what we need, he too is just back from injury.
Young Hendry should be given a longer run at RB which is his natural osition.
Mikey Johnston, excites us all and just needs regular games.
French Eddy has the talent, we saw that last season, but again needs a run in the team and arm around him to encourage him, it could be, he needs a partner upfront to help him out.
Now to our scouting network, I must admit I am not a fan of Congerton. But I read he is in charge of 6 scouts in the UK and 8 scouts around europe. But Celtic have budget restrictions and it is no good them recommending a £10m+ player, with wages on top, way to expensive for Celtic. The scouts are looking at up and coming players up to £5m or players under the radar which are more difficulat to find these days. I think us fans need to trust Congerton and his scouts in the next 2 transfer windows, in the hope they unearth the next Dembele or Nicham. And yes when identified and Brendan asks Lawwell to sign that player, Pedro MUST do all he can to bring him to Celtic Park.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

26 Sep 2018 15:46:34
Hendry at RB help the boy is brutal. Lost down at Hibs last season with this imposter of a footballer 8n that postion . It's not a creche we are running.

If they're good enough they will come through. Not losing football games constantly to molycoddle anyone.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Sep 2018 10:59:08
Great chance tonight for us to start getting the season back on track tonight and lay down a marker everyone needs to get behind us, we hold the FIFA best fans in the world title so let's show the gutter press and all the doubters and fans from other clubs we are one we are Celtic 🍀.

Believable4 Unbelievable0

26 Sep 2018 12:41:06
Seem to have been saying that for a wee while now, but it really is about time the players showed some fight to return to form and take their (and our) frustration out on someone.
We have all had a say in the inconsistent start and other factors that have affected the manager/ players, but that's because we are all very emotionally involved and care deeply about all things Celtic.
Now there seems to be a groundswell of sniping, gloating and hun-hype from everyone and their dug aimed at unsettling and belittling our manager at every turn and it's time to shut a lot of people up.
Scott Brown and co are overdue a performance befit of Treble-champs.
