Game of 2 halfs played well first half again wasteful with final ball second half vang average and the subs made us worse. baffling why take off a lb who's doing fine and bain is not the answer.

06 Feb 2021 19:49:23
I never saw the game today Mally but Bain has been awful this season and if it was me, I'd get rid of him and Hazard come the summer.

C’mon Scotland. I’ve never been much of a rugby man but an Irish company took us to Murrayfield a few years back for Scotland against Ireland and it was fantastic. The hospitality was better than anything I’ve ever seen at football. I was a bit confused with the opposition wearing green and singing the fields of athenry and me wearing blue though. What was even more confusing was sitting with a beer with the Irish fans having the craic. What was even more confusing than that was Scotland got a penalty to win the game and the Irish fans were asking for quiet among them. They were telling me there is always a good atmosphere between Scotland and Ireland and Scotland, Ireland and Wales but Scotland against Engerland is a different story. As I said I’m not a rugby man and don’t even understand the rules but anything we gub the Brexiteers at I could get into even if it was tidllywinks!

if the hospitality is as good as the number seven lounge at celtic park it must be good as i can't see by it win lose or draw.

06 Feb 2021 21:20:32
Shaw I’ve been in the No.7 lounge too which was excellent but honestly Murrayfield was something else. Don’t get me wrong I’ve been at the captains table I think they call it in the north stand and more recently had hospitality in the main stand and Celtic Park is excellent. Wee Bertie was sitting with us the last time what a laugh.

06 Feb 2021 22:35:42
you can't get a word in with wee bertie can you jfp, what a man.

07 Feb 2021 09:35:50
Used to see wee Bertie all the time in Baird's, what a character he is, fantastic.

07 Feb 2021 09:43:37
AGG he’s still as sharp as a tack for his age and as you say he’s a character and a half.

06 Feb 2021 18:23:42
Kick in the chest, wonder if that will get talked about much.

06 Feb 2021 19:36:40
He booted soro intentionally on the chest with malice 6 game ban.
Let's see what happens now.
It should have been an instant red card.
Gd game the lads fought for everything. Mother well put 3 up front but old Celtic came back and ripped them apart they thought our defence was weak big mistake it seems stronger.
Last 15 mins nerve wracking think we got tired but it's coming lads.
Turnbull coming if what's Lennon's idea of that. Griff can go rogic can go. We build around this team get a string bench.

06 Feb 2021 22:37:38
Thought the first half was excellent just couldn't get more, second half was good until they scored got a bit nervy, but a wins a win and a better showing, turnbull looks a player. Eddy starting to look good now although abiy too late. That kick in the chest was unreal, see how much press it gets cos if that was scott brown that done it im sure it would be rammed down our throats, also a elbow in there.

At times Celtic played well today but in the end we rode our luck.
The pitch cut up badly as the game went on.
We were discussing in our household that when we make a few subs, we manage to get worse and the same happened again today.
Celtic bring on good substitutes and most are straight swaps but instead of stepping up a gear with fresh players, we look a shadow side.
Young Coatbridge Bhoy Stephen Welsh was a deserved MOTM.

06 Feb 2021 17:22:06
Buzz why did Taylor go off?

06 Feb 2021 17:26:39
The substitution of Taylor was yet another head-scratcher for me - unless he was injured? He was having one of his best games and team was well balanced and in full control of a comfortable win.
However, I agree the changes often come in clusters, like an American Football game with players scrambling around trying to fit in.
We lost confidence and shape after their goal, but Soro made a very good contribution when he came on. All-in-all a relief rather than an expected route, after such a quick opener.

06 Feb 2021 17:32:54
Taylors been subbed baffled me.

06 Feb 2021 17:42:40

I just think it was a straight swap for Laxalt. No other reason.
I find it strange why we keep conceding when Laxalt is on the pitch because he isn’t a bad player.
But that’s Celtic won 12 out of 15 league games that Taylor has started and only 3 wins out of 10 league starts for Laxalt.
I was happy for Laxalt that he saved the day for Celtic but I was also thinking what was our left back doing on the right post.
It seems to be Laxalt just likes to follow the ball instead of staying in his position.

06 Feb 2021 18:07:44
There's no arguing with the numbers Buzz on the LB position this season. Bringing in Laxalt seems to be yet another head scratcher.

06 Feb 2021 18:25:10
Is there a clause in Laxalt loan where he has to play certain amount of games? Sooner he's gone the better.

06 Feb 2021 18:32:54
Sometimes l wonder does Lennon make some changes just for the sake of it. Turnbull going off made no sense again but he seems to take the lad off every game.

06 Feb 2021 21:54:48
Laxalts not a bad player buy he's also not a good player.

06 Feb 2021 15:12:57
Great to hear that Tim is back home and recovering. God bless you mate.

06 Feb 2021 12:23:54

06 Feb 2021 11:14:45
Well it takes one to know one.

{Ed007's Note - Whenever she starts moaning at me or Yoda I just hit her with the menopause/hormones patter 😁 "Aw look Yoda, Mrs Nae Treats (or The Bad Woman) is having another crabit hot flush." She's only 44 but it gets right on her wick.}

06 Feb 2021 11:59:03
😅😅 Ed that's class. If I said that to my wife I'd be out the door.

{Ed007's Note - 😁

06 Feb 2021 12:00:55
If my wife moaned when our kids were younger, we used to say to her
“ We Love You Miss Hannigan “ 😂.

{Ed007's Note - 😂

06 Feb 2021 12:27:00

06 Feb 2021 12:35:07

Ive heard that this so called review has been done all parties are fully aware of the steps moving forward behind the scenes the chest pieces are being placed and worked before they are ready to commence. Wee teasers may start to unveil near season ticket renewal time but only if initial numbers of renewals are under projected sales targets. But for the now hope we get a good win and performance today HH

Team could be

Bain
Kenny
Ajer
Welsh
Taylor

Brown
McGregor
Mio
Turnbull

Edouard
Ajeti.

06 Feb 2021 11:17:33
That’s the same lineup Celtic TV picked.
Except they’ve got Turnbull on the right side of the diamond and Elyounoussi at the front of the diamond in midfield.

06 Feb 2021 11:29:56
Yeah the starting 11 speaks for itself just now really.

06 Feb 2021 11:32:24
Oh and btw am not NL but i do know one of his mates well tbf.

06 Feb 2021 10:05:35
TIM great to hear that you're home and on the mend. We'll look forward to seeing you back on here soon. God Bless. 🙏☘️ HH.

06 Feb 2021 01:08:19
all the best to u and yours tim.

Celtic have just clinched a deal with a communication firm to produce more behind the senes footage could this be a connection via the new CEO?
