Getting the HSS at 12.20 from Belfast, so should be in Glasgow at 4.30pm.
Happy enough meeting up with you lads, but will have to be round the ground or at the CSC on London Rd, only 10-15 mins from ground up the London rd - always fantastic atmosphere in there before a CL match, also always a good band playing.

Jaysus, GD, I though Celtic Park was the only building left standing on the London Road?

Illdecide, get yourself round to the Lisbon Lions (to the right of the front of the stadium from London Road) wall and see if you can find the brick with my name and County on it. It still takes me a good 5- 10 minutes every time.

Lads, Jury's in the City Centre is a more sedate place for a pint after the game and the atmosphere there after the last Man Ure game was something else. A lot of lads skipped bed and went straight from bar to breakfast

Nah Tone, I'm bussing it so 3 hours drinking before the match in the CSC then away straight after the game. So it'll be the CSC for us.

[T Fearon]

3 hours boozing before the game? FFS I'd be comatose!

PS Best of luck with the weather and the boat tomorrow. I still have nightmares about November 2006

Anyone see sky sports news last night when they said the Celtic will playing young Irish player Cillian Sheridan (pronouncing it like window cill) cringing stuff!

[bennydorano]

Planning a weekend sometime early in the new year, are there any games down for a Saturday that will not be moved to accomodate Setanta?

[T Fearon]

You cant be sure until nearer the time. I love the Sunday 12.30pm kick offs, easyjet flight from Belfast at 9.00am has you there in good time, flight home around 8pm, which gives you a few hours after the game in the city centre, and providing you get in early the flights are cheap.The plus point is that Celtic tickets are usually easy enough to get anytime,apart from matches with Rangers

Celtic v Man Utd 
Uefa Champions League, Group E
Venue: Celtic Park Date: Wednesday 5 November Kick-off: 1945 GMT Coverage: Live on Sky Sports 2, live text commentary on BBC Website, plus video of 5 Live Final Score (UK only)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Manchester United defender Wes Brown is unlikely to face Celtic in their Champions League Group E on Wednesday because of an ankle injury.

Brown missed United's last two games and was not at training on Tuesday.

Gary Neville or Rafael Da Silva will deputise at right-back, while midfielders Owen Hargreaves and Paul Scholes remain long-term absentees.

Celtic, beaten 3-0 at Old Trafford in October, need a win to maintain their hopes of reaching the knockout stages.

Another win for United would send them into the last 16 with two games to spare if Aab Aalborg fail to beat Villarreal. A draw would also be enough if the Spaniards win.

Gordon Strachan's team will need to improve dramatically on their performance at Old Trafford, when two goals from Dimitar Berbatov and one from Wayne Rooney swept the Premier League champions to an emphatic victory.

Celtic have lost only one of their last 11 home Champions League games but they are yet to score in three matches this season and United are yet to concede.

However, the Scottish side can take heart from seeing Hull score three goals in a 4-3 Premier League defeat on Saturday.

And Strachan also said people should not read too much into his side's defeat at Old Trafford.

"We didn't play as well as would have liked but Man United are probably the best team in the world," he said.

"Everyone who goes there, who has spent more money than us, has got a right tonking there. We got beat 3-0 but two of the goals were offside so it's not as bad as people have been making out."



Teams to follow.

Hail Hail
