I see GT10 was bang on with today's team in his post last night. This bloke must be pals wi Calvin Miller🤣 Remember last season he got every team right the night before the game.

Cheers Stevie, I get the info from a friend of a friend 😊😊 I've arrived in Tenerife so trying to find out how the Bhoys where today. Just happy we got 3 Points. Had a few beers so I'll check all the treads in the morning to see what people are saying.

GT If you're in Las americas end of Tenerife. There is a pub down across the road from san eugino shopping centre called the Irish rover great little pub scottish family run. Drinks are cheap and they do 2 for 1 on all spirits till 11 pm and they don't know what a measure is haha.

Result never in doubt for us. Missed the Livi goal due to still sussing out my route North after the games but listening to Open all mikes, it sounded like another Gordon blunder. I really don't like singling players out after a win but thought Johnny Hayes was a wee bit off the pace today. He needs more game time. Was impressed with The Griff, a couple more weeks and he'll be back to his best.
All in all, we absolutely bossed them today and looking forward to Wednesday night, a totally different prospect ahead but I'm confident!

Ajer switched off, free header into path of the scorer.

I managed to watch the game through vipbox if anyone else in Australia was struggling.

Really shoulda hammered them today after such a dominant display and 3-1 was a ridiculous reflection of the game.
Got to be happy with the victory and the sharpness in front of goal will hopefully get better as we should really turn all this possession into more goals sooner or later.
AEK will be a tougher opponent and we will probably resume the back four and in my opinion, 'Eddy' is much more effective in a pair and although I don't see it happening, I would like to see him and LG play together and try to gain a big advantage in the home leg.

It's a bit much criticising a player for something that happens as you are walking to car . It's a good job you don't like criticising a player.

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Aug 2018 00:30:26
Read my post Chris, I was mildly criticising Johnny Hayes who I watched with my own eyes before he was subbed. Gordon as far as I am aware as I wasn't in the ground at the time, was to blame for the Livi goal. Not everyone leaves at the final whistle and some reports and info come from third parties.
Nothing wrong with that, is there?

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Aug 2018 01:55:07
My bad, wasn't header, it was a volley touch on to scorer.

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Aug 2018 07:00:14
I thought Hayes played alright
Especially the first half.
I was thinking wee Griff was slightly off it, he needs his two goals over the line pronto, make his mark in the 100 Club and set him up for the season. He may be 3rd choice when the moose is fit.

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Aug 2018 14:49:30
The defence switched off, as simple as that. The game was effectively finished and ref blew the whistle when Celtic kicked off.

Agree0 Disagree0

04 Aug 2018 17:19:00
A good performance apart from the Livingston goal. Hopefully Ntcham didn't pick up a knock late on. A good we run out for Griff. It was like a training session. Callum is playing well at present and it's great to see as not long ago we had the boo boys on his case when he misplaced a pass or two. Hopefully we come out all guns blazing during the week and get a few goals and a clean sheet.

05 Aug 2018 01:52:05
Have to say I was glad when Livi scored, I had a Celtic win, Rogic to score and over 3 goal in the game.
The wife asked what I was cheering for when Livi scored.

Good morning been reading with interest comments on here about no signings ect when are my fellow Celtic fans going to realise that the team we have are a very good equipped players to deal with the likes of ark Athens and especially the domestic campaign as I've said before the imposters over the road will fall like a pack of cards honey G will go back down south and get a youth coaching role again mark my words I was on Clyde 1 I'm actually john provanmill on that show and I said the same to Hugh leaving wait until the English transfer window closes we will make moves and strengthen big time have faith bhoys and Ghirls I'm seldom wrong and good contact so let's open this treble treble campaign with faith in our double treble manager BR and please believe me we will be 3 points ahead of the imposters on Monday morning it's great to be a good person that being a fenian.

1 Player who doesn't get the praise he deserves is C Gordon imo, does have the odd blip but he's an amazing shot stopper!

Believable0 Unbelievable1

04 Aug 2018 14:19:30
Celtic need more than a shot stopper for the higher level though.
Yes he is a very good shot stopper who can pull out some great saves but his distribution is shocking and constantly hands possession back to the other team.
His decision making is shocking as well plus his handling and punching not much better.

Agree2 Disagree0

04 Aug 2018 14:28:32
Gordon gets far more praise than he deserves IMO. Definitely not an amazing shot stopper. Average GK who would get shown up if he wasn’t at a club who dominates domestically.

Agree1 Disagree0

04 Aug 2018 14:37:57
Even when he saves it, he parries it right into opposition players

Good back up but a new No 1 would be ideal if we can target one.

Agree0 Disagree0

04 Aug 2018 17:22:26
He loses goals at his near post far too often. Every cross ball into the box gives me the fear. I suppose he's a Marmite type of guy.

Agree0 Disagree0

04 Aug 2018 18:47:37
U blind Brendan he’s the weakest link.

Agree0 Disagree0

04 Aug 2018 20:55:02
No matter who we had in goals there are some nappy wetters on here would never be satisfied . Gordan has an amazing record of having 100 clean sheets in 200 games . Yet some try to break his confidence, his performances have been even more impressive when we remember what many fans regards as bombscares playing in front of him from Efe, Boyata and Hendry .

Agree0 Disagree0

04 Aug 2018 22:02:56
Give it a rest Chris I’m one of the most ardent supporters of the team and have a go at most for the shitey gripes at transfers the board etc but let’s not pretend Gordon is our weakest link don’t hit me with stats they bore me he’s just not good enough and gets away with it cos we’re so dominant.

Agree1 Disagree0

04 Aug 2018 23:09:47
You just have to have a look at the supposedly best and most expensive goalkeepers in the world and look at the mistakes they make, then there is Joe Harte, the panty wetters on here would probably be crying out for Celtic to sign him, because he would cost a lot of money, so he must be better, he is not, he is rubbishe, look at De Gea, he is supposed to be good, but he makes more mistakes than CG, Craig Gordon is brilliant, he is not infallible, but he is better than any alternative, I can think of.

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - Joe Hart is just an English version of Craig Gordon, it's difficult to rate who's the worst of the 2, Gordon probably edges it because he doesn't play in the Best Pub League in the World.}

04 Aug 2018 23:45:53
Gordon gives me the fear . and I’m pissed off im getting involved in a keeper convo when I’m over the moon with the bhoys really believe this season is going to be great to watch.

Agree0 Disagree0

04 Aug 2018 12:25:12
How was Henrik Larsson allowed to leave on a free? Was it simply a case of him refusing to sign an extension or what? In today's market I reckon he would have got us about £20m if sold to Barcelona.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

04 Aug 2018 13:23:20
It was loyalty thing ( I know) he signed his last contract with us on the understanding he would get a loyalty bonus if he seen out his contract.

Agree3 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - Larsson told Celtic he was leaving to go back to Sweden at the end of his contract, instead of selling him the Club told him that if he seen out his contract he would get a £1 million "loyalty bonus", the Club then arranged a benefit game so that the fans ended up paying his loyalty bonus and he buggered off to sign for Barca for crazy money and a hefty signing on fee.
By far one of the biggest - if not THE biggest - mistakes Peter Lawwell has made.}

04 Aug 2018 13:42:00
In today’s market he’d be worth £70million.

Agree2 Disagree0

04 Aug 2018 20:33:54
the memories, trophies and money earned from keeping a player like Larsson for 7 years is worth a million times more than any fee we could have received for him at any point.

Which kinda shows u a difference in attitude nowadays as most people are obsessed about how much we earn from selling players as oppose to the quality on the park.

Agree1 Disagree1

04 Aug 2018 20:34:08
Absolutely LM67 but not if he played for us unfortunately. It would be another van dijk type saga.

Agree1 Disagree0

04 Aug 2018 23:31:56
At what time was he worth £70m in today's market . Certainly not when he left us . We got good value getting 7 yrs out of him even though we paid him well.
Any fan that begrudged him the 1 million play off shouldn't have went to the game .

Having said that I think Larsson was a brilliant player but he was lucky to spend his best years in a Celtic team where he was worshipped by team mates, manager and coaches and fans . Celtic did their bit to make him so good.

Okay, it's on. First day of the new season and we have to send a message here. Livingston should be four down and have their tongues hanging out at half time. Seriously.

Midweek we were not great, we also were not poor and got through, so i expect us to step it up today. This season we will receive more bad press than any other, we know the reason, so let's shut it down today.

Permatan has been making the right noises, as you would expect, but this is Celtic, your just up, show some respect and humility. I feel really strongly about this let's bury them. And keep at it for ninety minutes.

The example? .5-0 v sevco. start at that pace and stretch them and the outcome will be the same, a kicking. With the game tomorrow featuring our supposed main rivals,
send the message.

I love Danny McGrain. I always have and I always will. He was my hero as a lad and still is. Great to see him getting honoured today. I won’t be at the game today which is probably for the best as I couldn’t trust myself not to run on and hug him before being wrestled to the ground and then chucked out. :)
