I sometimes think it gets overlooked about how good the Celtic performance was against Inter Milan in the 1967 European cup final.
The Lisbon Lions had an incredible 42 shots at goal on the day against a club who had won the European cup I think twice in the previous 3 years.
To put how impressive that statistic was into perspective,
The greatest final ever was at Hampden Park in 1960 when Real Madrid won 7-3 against E. Frankfurt and there was only 42 shots at goal between both clubs.
The Germans were also a decent side having beaten Rangers 12-4 on aggregate on their route to the final.

Buzz i enjoy your stats mate. The last one is one I will be telling my boy about. Incredible amount of shots on goal at that level. And if getting a GF makes you as happy as Commonsense sounds I would steer well clear bro! Keep on keeping on!

Mr Grumpy is back on to give his criticism as usual.
Never once has commonsense gave positive feedback about anything to do about our club which is very suspicious.
My point is the score line doesn’t reflect how dominant Celtic were in Lisbon compared to the Real Madrid result.
It’s okay I will put commonsense back into the water. 🐟 😂.

I don’t know what commonsense is more mad about,
The statistics from the final in Lisbon.
OR the fact that I mentioned Rangers got beat 12-4 on aggregate.

Good to see the team looking more at it these last few games. Hopefully get a settled team as we have been unlucky with injuries and C.V. impacts. If we go on a run, which I expect, and keep Rangers in sight we will reel them in. My only worry is that nobody else looks like taking points off them so we absolutely must the next time. My only concern is our goalie, who is best and are either No1 material? IMO both are decent but nothing special.

Your not going to be popular on here for pointing out Duffy is a limited player. Apparently on here we don't want ball playing CH we want nonsense CH. Despite the fact our defender's see a lot of the ball. Even worse the no nonsense CH is brutal.

Hi Ed any idea what Laxalts wages would be at Milan? Seen an article saying we can sign him for €5m which I think might be a bit lower that what Milan really want but if true he's well within our budget considering there will be a few top players being sold in the summer there should be a sizable kitty to rebuild the team.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed007's Note - In summer 2019 it was widely reported that Laxalt's proposed move to Atalanta collapsed because they couldn't afford to match his Milan salary of €1.8 million a year, circa €35k a week.}

02 Nov 2020 16:50:01
Maybe get 10m plus laxalt for Ajer. Wishful thinking.

Agree1 Disagree0

02 Nov 2020 18:52:22
I hope we can land him on a permanent basis I think it will be a little harder to do it without him hearing the noise from the fans but still hope.

Agree0 Disagree0

03 Nov 2020 10:31:10
Definitely wishful thinking that Fifer. wouldn't be surprised if AC Milan tried to make it a straight swap, at best a few million coming our way.

Cheers Ed, Wages not out of reach then although a little on the top end of what we can offer.

I wonder what nonsense he will be spouting about this. I will not be surprised if this incident is not the first time that mob have broke rules. Only reason we are hearing about it is because Police were involved. 14 day suspension for their club must be.

02 Nov 2020 15:01:49
Interesting to see if the SPFL will stop Sevco playing for 14 days as they have with any other team.

Agree2 Disagree0

02 Nov 2020 15:05:28
He’ll be looking out his crayons rite now tae write down his exuses! Am loving the they dealt with it straight away pish tae! More like Phil said, the police were called and they had no other choice but to put it out! There game this weekend should be cancelled just like ours was and Aberdeen’s was! Won’t count on it but! Sweep sweep! Am sure Clyde1 will dedicate the whole show to it tonite! 🤔🤔🤔.

Agree0 Disagree0

02 Nov 2020 15:09:35
I don’t think their 2 players have been in contact with the rest of the squad and therefore Sevco will be okay to play their next game.
The Police only caught them at 1.30 this morning at a house party and they issued them with fines.
The club have suspended the 2 players and they will now have to isolate for 14 days.
It would’ve been a different story if the players went into training after breaking the rules.
They’ve got away with one again.

Agree3 Disagree0

02 Nov 2020 15:58:53
The Aberdeen players never went near their squad the following day.

Agree1 Disagree0

02 Nov 2020 16:21:36
Thought the two game suspension was a punishment, because professional footballers had been given a special dispensation, to allow the professional game to continue, the players were meant to just exist in a bubble as it were, it wasn't a quarantine as such.

Agree0 Disagree0

02 Nov 2020 17:47:47
Wasnt it a party for arfield bday? That's what I heard.

Agree0 Disagree0

02 Nov 2020 18:58:30
A lot of ifs and buts. I know we will have to wait and see with interest going from what has been said only way they will or should stop there games is If those two started to train with the first team squad today before getting pulled would out Then it should be the same scenario as RC.

Agree0 Disagree0

02 Nov 2020 19:15:27
It was Scott Arfield's birthday yesterday so may be some truth in the rumour. The Scottish government will have access to the police records and if Scott Arfield was there, then this could get very nasty for Sevco as they have not declared it.

Agree1 Disagree0

02 Nov 2020 20:39:33
They issued their statement just before the story broke. Every time they issue a statement there's always more to it than it seems.

Agree2 Disagree0

02 Nov 2020 23:20:33
There is a pic floating around from someones snapchat of Morelos being there. Not sure if it was from an earlier party or maybe he went home before the polis busted them but rumours are Sevco are covering it up.

Is it just me. Why is it everytime Nir Bitton plays an ex player or pundit will say he's not playing in his natural position. For me he's now a class defender as shown playing for his club and country. They don't say anything about Ajer when he's playing.

Believable1 Unbelievable0

02 Nov 2020 11:43:37
Bitton is a tremendous player in possession he's immense and his passing is usually right on the money lacks a bit physically but tgats what Duffy was brought in for.

Agree0 Disagree0

02 Nov 2020 12:12:04
I remember Tom McAdam was a centre forward when bought by Big Jock but made his name as a Centre Back, playing alongside Roy Aitken another 'Jack-of-all-trades' in the Hoops. George Connelly could play literally any position and there was Big Shughie Edvaldsson; another versatile player. More recently Chris Sutton could do a decent shift up front or at CB. Good footballers can always adapt.

Agree3 Disagree0

02 Nov 2020 14:01:47
Ajer isn't playing in his natural position either but no one seems to mention that.

Buzz I understand most legue only have 1 cup comp has any other teams won 4 connective doubles? Cheers mate hh.

Jic1956
There’s been half a dozen clubs who’ve achieved 4 doubles in a row including Juventus recently.
Lincoln Red Imps hold the record of 8 doubles in a row from 2004 to 2011.
Celtic will overtake Rangers 19-18 in doubles if we manage to overcome Hearts.

02 Nov 2020 21:00:34
I noticed Celtic in 1966/ 67 hold the record for the most goals in a season of 196.
Barcelona team of 2011/ 12 are second with 190 goals.

Agree0 Disagree0

02 Nov 2020 09:06:52
What’s your thoughts on Celtic playing one of our rearranged games 4 days before we play Hearts in the cup final.
For me it wouldn’t be an option if Hibs reached the final but as it stands Celtic will be going to Ibrox 3 league games behind.
Celtic are home to Kilmarnock on the Sunday December 13th and then we could possibly play home to Aberdeen OR home to St. Mirren on the Wednesday before playing the cup final on the Sunday December 20th.
But that would be our 9th game in December.
Are we better to stay patient and play them after the New Year?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

02 Nov 2020 10:35:07
Personally; I would like to play games-in-hand, the soonest date available simply because closing the gap puts pressure on them; whereas a team sitting nine points clear are more relaxed.

Definitely get the games played, the way the gov are handling the C.V. virus, they could potentially call off the season at the half way point . We need to get back on terms with them ASAP . If they get a two game ban due to the players it could do us a favour .

When big rogic has one of his good days it shows how much a genuine playmaker lifts the level of the team . let's hope turnbull can turn out to do this on a consistent basis.

Agree1 Disagree0

02 Nov 2020 11:27:05
Turnbull isn't the same type of player as Rogic though. He's not a no. 10.

02 Nov 2020 11:36:39
Need to see Turnbull first starting to get annoyed not getting to see the boy tbh.

Agree0 Disagree0

02 Nov 2020 12:27:55
There must be a reason why Turnbull is so far down the pecking order. His one start he was poor, as were the whole team. He will have to be patient and keep working hard and then take his chance when it comes. I think a nice home banker would be a good time to throw him in. Bit of a wait for that though!
