Celtic banter 10

BETTER DAYS AHEAD

That is the name of a horse in the Irish Grand National tomorrow 14/ 1 5 places

It is also how I am feeling, I think we will have learned our lesson from Tannadice and I feel confident of a win today. Win these next two games and we will be in a decent place with the split coming up.

The sevvies are confident, but I think there are a few banana skins for them after the split

For those of you who Celebrate it I hope you all have a
JOYFUL EASTER SUNDAY.

Tim if we had more firepower we might have a chance but we're toothless up top, and our wide men are so inconsistent, there is no room forcertor no draws all wins needed, jfp says improbable that's my take also.

05 Apr 2026 10:49:35
Happy Easter Mr Legend 🍀.

Thats the past 2 motherwell home games I've attended. My son is a season ticket holder.

Ive seen absolutely nothing from just that would merit a bid. Goes down easy, reluctant to go in the box / attack. Steven Odonnell did more today that just and he was horrific 🤣🤣🤣

Maswanisse? Small? Little to no service? Yes he got a goal today but largely ineffective in both the hibs / now Falkirk games.

This is only my opinion.

P. s. I've never seen a worse performance from a referee than this guy today 🙈🙈🙈🙈.

05 Apr 2026 10:12:39
I get mixed up between McGinn and O’Donnell but it was mentioned in commentary in December that one of them had just beat Celtic for the first time in their career.

04 Apr 2026 17:22:49
Nothing less than being a point above the Sevs by this time next week will be acceptable.

04 Apr 2026 17:54:46
We head to Dundee tomorrow third place in the league. We’ve taken 0 points from 9 on previous 3 visits to Dundee. We’ve lost more games than first and second placed teams combined. We’ve beaten neither in the league.

Both have a better goal difference. Our three strikers have what 4 goals between them and not all from open play. Does that sound like a team that will win the league?

04 Apr 2026 18:32:58
It is possible if Celtic win our 2 games before Sevco play and then we would need Falkirk to win next Sunday.
I hope Stevie is right.

04 Apr 2026 18:52:58
Buzz

I hope Stevie is right too!

It’s possible - but for me - improbable.

04 Apr 2026 19:22:54
Really hard to accept, but I have been waiting all year for Celtic to play well for a whole game and vaguely resemble the Celtic we know. The long term damage done by the Board and the ridiculous appointment of Nancy has given MON a mountain to climb - wearing roller skates. I will never concede anything this soon but can anyone see the faintest hint of the miracle we require all things considered? Senior players have to take the team by the scruff of the neck and we cannot afford any passengers or lightweights for the remaining games.

However, the amount of injuries and inadequacies in this squad makes this very, very tough.

04 Apr 2026 22:01:39
I would agree with everything you mentioned Celtic Mad but we’re not at the miracle part yet.
I hope I’ve not wrote too soon before tomorrow.

05 Apr 2026 00:10:47
Always said since Jan, we need to get to the split still in touch, to be in touch we must win our next 2 games, tomorrow is huge, for me if we don't win it's a 2 horse race and we're destined for 3rd which is a disgrace and that alone to be 3rd in what should have been a 1 horse race given the gulf in resources we had is unforgivable.

05 Apr 2026 09:41:52
I hope with every fibre of my being you are correct Buzz.

I just haven’t seen any evidence this season that it will happen.

We have far too many journeymen in the team.

05 Apr 2026 10:14:08
Agree Stevie Bhoy 👍🍀.

05 Apr 2026 10:50:55
Figures crossed North.

05 Apr 2026 11:17:08
I think we are very much at the miracle stage of the season, what have you seen that makes you think that we are going to win every game between now and the end of the season. It's too big a jump from our current form to champions form.

We are conceding, we are not scoring. This is what it looks like when the quality of your team is much the same as the teams you are playing and you do not have the quality to play the system you are trying to play.

05 Apr 2026 19:16:24
Nail on head here.

Too many SPFL dross in the team who in my opinion wouldn’t get in any of our main rivals teams.

04 Apr 2026 14:28:56
Wonder if big Arthur could play rb Tom with trusty coming in it would give us 3 big guys as well just don't fancy Donovan or ralston.

04 Apr 2026 14:51:49
I think Donovan has been one of our few positives this season and he’s only going to get better.
He should keep his place tomorrow although AJ and Araujo are huge misses.

I would also keep Trusty on the bench with his body crying out for rest and with all his travelling involved.
He’s another big player we can’t afford to go into the split without.

04 Apr 2026 15:41:39
Donovans final ball is awful if he could improve that side of his game he'd have a chance.

04 Apr 2026 16:04:55
True Mally he is a good defender but we miss our 2 injured players in the final 3rd.

04 Apr 2026 18:05:30
I'd rather have Donovan than Ralston but it's a pretty close call.

04 Apr 2026 14:26:15
could not believe that we are playing a crucial game on Easter Sunday!
A day when many people are enjoying quality family time!

04 Apr 2026 14:53:53
Next season Easter Sunday will land on the International break for a change.

04 Apr 2026 15:37:42
The dodgy random fixture computer and SLY programming are just two of the many factors in a season none of us will ever forget.

04 Apr 2026 14:25:52
Celtic and Man City have done it all before and it’s 28 times your money double to still win the league and 30.6 times your money with a boosted bet with Ladbrokes.
Man City still have Arsenal at home,
Celtic should still have both Hearts and Sevco at home.

05 Apr 2026 11:52:55
Not as big an advantage now as it should be because of, well we all know whos responsible tired of even using the words.

04 Apr 2026 11:29:46
Tough one tomorrow and could be very wet and windy conditions if the forecast holds, we have to show more fight Dundee made it hard at cp and have already beat us, no room for error as we could be 4 points behind sevco and 8 behind wee sevco before ko, iam expecting a nervy performance but 3 points crucial regardless the performance.

04 Apr 2026 13:03:26
Celtic are already 2 points behind the tribute act and that could become 5 today.

04 Apr 2026 13:13:59
Any win will do tomorrow an early goal would be nice though.

04 Apr 2026 17:21:01
At least the pitch should get a watering.

04 Apr 2026 11:04:18
Happy 40th Birthday Aiden McGeady.

On this date in 1989,
Celtic Won the last ever Dubai Cup and we got to keep the trophy.

The Champions of Scotland and England played a one off match in Dubai but it only ran for 3 years.
Celtic played Liverpool in the 1st Dubai cup and we lost on penalties
after conceding a last minute equaliser.

The following year Rangers beat Everton 8-7 on penalties after scoring 2 late goals to take it to spot kicks.
Then Celtic and Liverpool played out another 1-1 Draw and this time the Scottish Champions prevailed on Penalties.

04 Apr 2026 10:01:39
I’ve mentioned a few time recently that Celtic could’ve went 10 points ahead of Sevco when we visited then bottom of the league Dundee back in October,
But we could’ve went 11 points ahead.
( Sevco had 9pts and Celtic had 17pts going into Dundee )

Celtic went into the match 8 points ahead of Sevco and we had a better goal difference of 9.
Now we could find ourselves 5 points behind them before we kick a ball tomorrow and that would also mean they will have added to their current 8 superior goal difference.

DD flexed his muscles 10 years ago because the Sevco Directors were giving him it tight after they won on penalties.
The Celtic fans have been giving him it tight all season and he decides to double down.
A shameful disgrace of a man who needs to sell up and go.

04 Apr 2026 11:08:10
His arrogance, despot dictatorship and denial have put Celtic back in the doldrums of mediocrity, He (they) must vacate the premises ASAP.

04 Apr 2026 07:39:27
Could it be any more obvious after playing last at Tannadice we're now last again they couldn't even have us on before the wee buns tomorrow.

04 Apr 2026 11:09:23
You can also rest assured the Lanarkshire Mafia will ensure their team goes top before those games are played.

04 Apr 2026 13:14:36
I’m more raging with the computer for sending us away from home after all 4 International breaks whilst they got 4 Ibrox fixtures.
The programmer has done the SFA/ SPFL proud.

He also gave us 2 rearranged away games for reaching the league cup final.
Celtic have also visited both Ibrox and Tynecastle twice each after a European match.
That’s at least 10 away games with extra complications out of the 15 we have already played.

I get the SFA want a more competitive league but they should make disadvantages less obvious.
