The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

[stew]

That would have been one of the best Celtic results in their history

Steady on. You're talking about a club that has won the European Cup.

And that's exactly why I said ONE of the best results in their history.

[Main Street]

No doubt it would have been a great result, considering.

I was reading a report on Celtic Wiki,  about the Euro Cup 1974 semi final game against Athletico Madrid at Celtic Park 1st leg.
The Athletico Madrid team,  Thug; Psycho, Punch; Spit, Hatchet, Bludgeon; Hammer, Thump, Wallop, Gouge, Axe-Murderer

How times have changed.

Kilmarnock might have beaten barca!!

Don't sell McCourt, my Paddy McCourt. I just don't think you'll understand, cause if you sell McCourt, my Paddy McCourt your gonna have a riot on your hands...lol...WTF


Paddy came on against Dundee Utd yesterday and gave the ball away which resulted in Dundee Utd going straight up the field and scored from it, then 2 mins later he was dispossessed again and Dundee Utd got a corner from it. After the corner they scored again.

Why would you start a riot for selling a guy who can't get a start in the 1st team and whenever he does come on as sub he continuously gives the ball back to the opposition?

You are spot on, no call to bring him on at all yesterday. He needs moved on now.

[camanchero]

i'd keep McCourt. He offers something different that Celtic dont have in attack. It is just a pity he isnt getting enough game time there to keep him match fit - which imo was the problem yesterday in giving the ball away (not fitness- just not used to the tempo from having feck all action this past ages).
there are a few Celtic players that are in the same boat as McCourt. on the fringes and maybe not quite good enough or maybe always injured and a few of them need moving on.
Celtic have too big a squad now, but this should guarantee them winning the league, if Lennon does the swuad rotations correctly.

People were saying to get rid of Samaras, but the guy offers something different and I think in the past few months at least has shown people what this is...

anyhow, Dundee utd have been hard for Celtic to beat this past few seasons and yesterday shows that they raise their game for the Champions. Celtic need to be more clinical though. Too many mistakes being made by defenders.
Still as long as they get those out of their system and park the bus on Wed night and try to plunder a goal on the counter attack, we wont care!

Five nil Barca, the aul pride will kick and they will put manners on the celts tomorrow.

[Main Street]

What a team and CL occasion to have for Celtic's 125th birthday celebration.
I hope the rte pundits can shut up for 5 minutes so we can witness the display.

5-0 would be a bit of a party pooper, even worse if Barca score before the display has time to unwind 

[Ulick]

Amazing display there at the start:

[Fear ón Srath Bán]

Get in there!

[orangeman]

Unreal.

Just doesn't add up. Their league results and the champions league form.
