Better than sky!, I always liked peter Martin's commentary tho, wonder where he is now.

Gd getting organised how much different from last year this is. Fans panicking new manager etc.
All positive steps.

Augustus peter martin is doing a show with roughie and barry ferguson and a few others, I think its radio and podcasts and the company is called plz soccer.

Now that it is becoming clearer how our away games will probably all be on Sky and our home games will possibly have a couple on Sky but most of the rest will shown free to Celtic season ticket holders by Celtic TV . As Champions 9 times in a row and with us having the biggest stadium in Scotland, I think all our away games to be played before Christmas and all our home games in the new year . Maybe by then fans can attend matches in full stadiums and so it would be a nice thank you to the fans who regularly attend in the biggest numbers in Scotland👍.

What if you don't have celtic tv, will you have to subscribe?

Hope they get better commentators.

I think season ticket holders will need to subscribe to Celtic TV.
Virtual season ticket holders will get a code which will allow home games to be viewed.
They won’t get to view everything else a normal subscriber to Celtic TV will get to view, the rest of the week.

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Jun 2020 23:32:27
Not sure if it's been discussed but does anyone know if non season ticket holders would be able to buy some sort of virtual pass to watch home games next season.

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Jun 2020 23:31:06
How much do you reckon
it would cost for non season ticket holders if subscriptions where made available by the club? Surely it won't be around 28pounds for 1 game? Then again surely you can't give it cheaper to non season ticket holders to watch.

Agree0 Disagree0

06 Jun 2020 09:29:30
Murky waters pud but it wouldn't be fair at all if season ticket holders got the same deal as us non season ticket holders. Just my opinion mind.

Just a quick question to see everyones thoughts, would you take a punt on scott McKenna?

For me personally I think he's been inconsistent and average at best but I do think he could be developed into a proper player with the right guys around him, if he was available for a decent fee I think he's worth the gamble and would make a decent backup before eventually being a first team regular.

He still has 3 years on his contract and with Aberdeen knocking back £5 million last season, I don’t see the value in buying him for a big transfer fee.
I would pay £3 million tops because he is only 23 years old and he will improve.
I like the fact he is left footed because Celtic are badly needing a left sided CB.
He actually started as a left back in the Aberdeen youths before moving to CB.

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Jun 2020 18:02:20
One plus buzz is the Aberdeen need money and his stock has dropped a bit. 3 mill he'd be worth a punt but is a wee bit injury prone.

Agree1 Disagree0

05 Jun 2020 18:15:11
McKenna not for me I am sure we could get far better for the money he would cost.

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Jun 2020 18:40:56
Haven't been impressed with him so far as we have scored a good few against the sheep in recent times.

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Jun 2020 19:23:38
Be as well bringing Jack Hendry back.

05 Jun 2020 19:39:12
No thanks.

Got to be better left sided centre halfs about, big cart horse.

05 Jun 2020 22:14:52
Before I got to know him I thought he looked decent.
After I got to know him - no chance.

Agree0 Disagree0

06 Jun 2020 11:13:17
he is that bad the orcs wouldn't even want him.

Agree0 Disagree0

06 Jun 2020 12:41:13
If could get him for 3 mill yes, no more tho ☘️.

Agree0 Disagree0

06 Jun 2020 14:02:53
If NL REALLY wants him - £4m and a couple of loans.

What’s everyone’s thoughts on this coming season and particularly playing behind closed doors? I think it could be quite a leveller for other teams along with the fact every team will be looking to be the team that put a dent in our hopes of the 10.

Believable4 Unbelievable0

{Ed007's Note - Or our players raise their game knowing what's at stake, knowing that when it comes to actually playing football nobody can touch them because they are by far the best in the country - then just obliterate everyone in the league.}

05 Jun 2020 13:39:47
I agree with Ed.
Celtic have showed over the last 4 years, how professional they are.

Agree1 Disagree0

05 Jun 2020 13:44:40
It would be good to see another Invincible happening next season - 3 Invincible squads from the best team in Scotland within a 5 year period would be magnificent and the icing on the cake.

I would love 5 trebles to go with our 10 In A Row.
It would show how insignificant their 5 tainted stars are.

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - Would you want or accept 5 stars on our top for 5 trebles?}

05 Jun 2020 14:05:33
Buzz, I just want Celtic to win the lot while developing youngsters and cutting costs. It's clear the also rans have to buy big to stop us as their development is just not happening.

Agree1 Disagree0

05 Jun 2020 14:07:24
No chance Ed. 😂.

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Jun 2020 14:09:33
I know that's tongue in cheek ed but any team in the world that puts a star on their top for league titles etc has a small club mentality and that's their level.
Stars are for European cup wins only now that's a big club mentality.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - Tell that to Juventus, it was them that started it all back in the 50s, or Bayern Munich who have 4 stars on their top for league titles. Would you see either of of those two clubs have a small club mentality?}

05 Jun 2020 14:17:17
I would put the five stars under the badge just to wind them up, then the one big star that they will never get on top.

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Jun 2020 14:33:19
One big gold star is classier. 👍.

Agree1 Disagree0

05 Jun 2020 14:38:00
I would personally wait until we win the next couple off leagues then have 55 on top of the badge.

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Jun 2020 15:11:43
Naw ed. Our one star means more than any other stars.

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Jun 2020 16:18:01
The Bayern Munich 4 stars must be for their 4 European cups / CL victories.
If Bayern win the league this season, it will only be their 30th title.
Juventus 3 stars are for winning over 30 league titles.

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - Juventus pus a star on their top in the 50s for their first 10 league titles. Bayern Munich have won 5 EC/CLs so they're a star short.
Football in Germany has two official star systems operating in parallel. In 2004, the DFL, which governs the Bundesliga (the top two divisions), introduced Verdiente Meistervereine (roughly "distinguished champion clubs"). This has a sliding scale of 1, 2, 3, and 4 stars for 3, 5, 10, and 20 titles.}

05 Jun 2020 16:40:54
I thought I was bad Ed.
How do you know all that. 😂.

Agree2 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - When you've repeated things so often you get to know the general ideas and then just look up the actual details.}

05 Jun 2020 18:00:32
I'd accept a cheeky wee '55'embroided on the shirt if we get to 55 titles before them just to rub it in.

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - We'll be able to claim the "world's most successful club" patter before we get to 55 titles in 4 years time.}

06 Jun 2020 11:52:58
Won’t have any prob getting there before them, they no longer exist 😊.

Good luck with your bets, Timbo.}

05 Jun 2020 14:03:57
Enjoyed the new take on it . Like everything, there was a few rushed/ poor episodes but all in all thought it was well done considering how poor some of the movies were . Looking forward to the new season . They started on a 3rd? Season 2 must be looking a success then lol.

silly season about to begin. Looking forward to see who we get in to replace our outgoing defenders. anyone know what the deal is with CL qualifiers, or even when Uefa are going to announce their plans?

I hope we do all we can to keep the rest of the squad together, continuity at clubs is often overlooked. for me this means keeping FF and ME as a minimum. If Soro looks like he could be the one to challenge brown for his spot then great, otherwise do we need another CM?

Another striker is key, to add to Eddy/ Griff. Assuming Eddy stays for another year at least this gives the new striker time to settle. Big years for bayo/ klimala to make the grade or bang in some goals on loan somewhere.

Will the challenge be harder next year, in terms of winning the tittle? For me, the mentality from sevco is what kills off any (small) chance they have. Major bottle merchants. All this talk of us being handed the tittle and no-one talking about how their form fell off a cliff post christmas. It reeks of perennial losers. I thought it was just fan nonsense but then you hear their players saying how they could have caught celtic and you realise it aint. All be it at just amateur football, but i have been in teams who have sometimes lost out on leagues/ cups etc. The guys who start blaming everyone else apart from your own team are never the ones who are going to change anything the next year.

Our mentality these last 4 years has been unbelievable. Do we put a lot of that down to BR, or is it the senior players in the team? Either way, hopefully this mindset is here to stay.
