The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

Christ that's a weak looking team 2nite

Lafferty's nationality, religion or off field personality has nothing to do with my opinion on his nastiness on the field for Hearts against Celtic. Hearts decision to play the way they do gets them so far but has won them nothing recently. Their decision to keep long grass on their pitch for Celtic's visit (and only Celtic's) appears to have backfired long term, possibly contributing to injury to their captain Berra.

P.s. O'Dea is almost as bad.

Good teams should be able to fight fire with fire when a team adopts a more physical approach.  Think of the Man Utd teams in recent history with Robson, Ince Keane, Hughes, Scholes etc who were all talented players who could take and dish out the rougher stuff against weaker, aggressive teams who were never going to be able to play them off the park.  You need winners too as well as ballers.

Football has moved on since Ferguson's days. There is being tough and then there's Hearts.

After conceding early we've come back into this and Griff should have equalised, still a chance!!

[Captain Obvious]

2-0 (3-1) behind its not looking good for Celtic.

[Captain Obvious]

A lifeline for Celtic? 2-1 (3-2) now

[From the Bunker]

Ah well that was a like a slow death at the end. Europa League here we come!

[rodney trotter]

Be a slow death in the Europa too. Rodgers for all the hype can't do anything in Europe.

Rodgers teams are so poor defensively.

You can't expect to progress in a stronger competition with a weaker squad-Boyata missing,eduoard missing,dembele doubful,armstrong gone-

Boyata missing through his own choice the grandiose cnut. Lack of investment yet again from the plc. Rodgers will slide on next season.

[Over the Bar]

Tie should've been settled at Parkhead v 10 men.

Lads the slow death is happening for years.  God knows what level Celtic will be at in 30 years.  Sad state of affairs when the domestic league is so poor.  A stronger rangers would help but don't think it would help massively.  Unless they get into the premier league or some sort of Euro league the club will get smaller and smaller

Why a strong Rangers? Aberdeen, hibs, hearts?
We were unlucky this round. Missing our two best CB's and with half fit strikers. In other circumstances we would have won that. f**k the English premier league. I watched Aberdeen run burnley close in the Europa League. Outside the top six that league is mediocre. Celtic are where we are, this pattern has been repeated for the last 20 years. We aren't really any further forward or back since MON came in.

[Targetman]

Well feck that anyway, dominated possession for large parts of that game but yet again the inability to defend costs us in Europe, not good enough and better off out of the champions league playing like that, should have opened the biscuit tin and bought a couple of decent defenders!!
