I know people will say that i'm biased because i know NL personally but all i'm saying (not defending him) is give him a chance and if he doesn't take his chance and he's not up to the task then give him a few quid and thank him for his efforts and move him on...Simple. I'm a Celtic fan first and I want whats best for Celtic but i'm prepared to give NL a chance and see how he performs, what's annoying me is people don't want him for the job without letting the fella have a proper go (their minds were made up the first day he took over).

10 in a row is too near
we cant take chances at this stage.
sorry I have a lot of time for NL but we need to nail this one.

I'm not sure what you mean by that...
Is it, you can't take a chance so give NL the job or you can't take a chance on NL

Has anyone any good dealers they have worked with in England for cars?

Going to head over shortly to try and trade in a VW Golf for a newer motor. Any good dealers or particular areas in England that are recommended?

Not big into it TBH but i reckon up north would be better as things tend to be a bit cheaper. Liverpool, Carlisle, Newcastle etc. That's where i'd start anyway plus it closer to the boats too

If Aberdeen had of tried playing football today they might have got somewhere

Hope, Don't think so. Celtic were always winning today, before they got a man sent off Celtic were in control of the game. I was nervous about the game but turns out there was no call to be nervous.

People talk about Lennon and bringing in other managers, the players are playing for him and he knows what he's doing. I get the feeling if he completes the treble it still won't be enough for some people, they're sitting just waiting to pounce the first time they're beaten.

Kickham csc, a great read and brought me back to my first game. Great to hear the stands are full of families, I know the GB gives the atmosphere to the match and they kinda do dictate the songs sang during the match. It's not perfect but it's not too bad either.

On the game...It's hard to break a team down when they have no intention of scoring or even breaking up the field hard afraid of getting caught on the break, some of Celtic's misses can be legislated for and i'm sure NL was pulling his hair out. We had enough talent on the pitch to win comfortably but i suppose you get one or two of these a season, just a pity your cub didn't get to see 2-3 goals, glad you's all enjoyed and don't wait too long before you bring him back again.I'm trying to fit my lad into a game at CP before the season is over.

Right guys, FFS we're arguing over silly stuff and they're worse than us and we're better than them. Wise up, there are village idiots in both camps who shame the club. I agree with Sutton that things seem to be getting worse this season for some reason and don't know why.
Rangers are up to their neck in fenian blood and Celtic are freeing Ireland and whatever else ( I know the argument will be their songs are worse than ours and that may be the case but it's foolish to think that one set of fans are worse/better than the others). Regarding Pyrotechnics and the like at games or anywhere TBH are insane, I've seen the damage they can do and they're basically small bombs used by clowns who haven't a clue what they're doing and it's only a matter of time before someone is seriously injured or killed by some drunk twat.

Football wise we were poor enough last night, first half was a bit better than the second. Still not impressed with O Ntcham, gives the ball away too easy and looks lazy trying to get it back. Maybe injuries dictated who came off the bench last night but surely that was the game to get 45 mins into Rogic's legs after how rusty he looked on Sunday but it was refreshing to see Christie back pushing forward with purpose. When everyone is fit we've a decent 11 but the guys coming in to fill the gaps are def of a lesser standard (unfortunately)

Why does my €25 Argos DAB clock radio adjust time automatically while my €25000 car DAB radio does not?

I give up? Why? (Maybe your big expensive car has a DAB radio worth a fiver )

TBH i was a bit surprised big Tam was used, he was so far of the pace it was frightening (i know he needs game time to get him up to speed but don't think today was the game to throw him in). I'm kinda glad Boyata got injured as he's a bomb scare anyway and he's running off in the summer (probably to BR at Leicester) thank God. Funny how Celtic seem to play better with 10 men, it's no fluke that they keep performing better when down a man (maybe the opposition come out a bit more and more space for quality players to thrive).
Anyway played poorly in the second half but got away with a win, R Kent was their best player and caused Celtic a lot of problems but playing against 10 men at home already 1-0 up should be a formality but that's not the way Celtic roll, we like to do it the hard way.

When Boyata goes 8n the summer, will Celtic get big money for him i.e. £5m or does he go on the cheap?

He goes that cheap it's shocking...FOC. As Lenny say's his contract is up so he's free to the highest bidder (whoever will offer him the highest salary)

Why are so many against N Lennon taking it on a permanent basis? If he wins the treble surely you can't pass him, he's tried and tested. He's a brainy lad who knows Celtic and knows the players, if he doesn't win the two remaining trophies then by all means look elsewhere but some of you are sounding like Sevco fans

You are biased on this one mate and rightly so but I agree. He deserves a 1 year contract at least imo. He stepped into the breach and he is delivering. I love the fact it means so much to him. He is genuine.

CT, i get it and probably am TBH but it's nothing to do with me knowing him it's just based on fact and his record. He will have them playing different to BR, that's no doubt and some games will be ground out but i can tell you something and more so in Europe we'll not be beat 7-1 again when he's in charge.  Oh and he'll not walk out on us unless P Lawell pushes him out...

Jim S i think that would just push them over the edge...lol. Wouldn't it be great if NL was the man in charge when the go bankrupt again

Have a ticket for Sunday but it was just sprung on me and i've to try and find a way over...

Think Celtic will win 3-0 on Sunday, there could be a sending off or two. I expect Sevco to have someone sent off and therefore we'll win 3-0. If it stays 11 v 11 then i'll go for a 2-0 or 2-1 to Celtic...

Forrest to score first...

i dunno what the big fuss is about, they've had their day and are going through a transition. They're a big county that will bounce back again in a few years( I think, although I'm about to contradict this...lol), the only worry i'd have if i was a Cork football fan is Hurling is getting more and more dominant in Cork and the longer the footballers waste away in the lower divisions then the bigger the Hurling will get...

Anyway that's a topic for the Div 3 thread now...

Was a tribute paid by the "All Ireland Team" for those young people who lost their lives in Cookstown?

Why would you ask that MG? what's your motive?
