The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

A great point to get on the road.
There's money to be made.....

Performance bonuses - €2.1m per win, €700k per draw. League ranking bonus - Each club will earn at least €275k for their league phase campaign - for every position above 36th, another €275k will be added to the bonus.

Pleasing result and it seems Rodgers has finally saw sense and taken a more pragmatic approach. Trusty and Scales were brilliant, more of the same please!

Got lucky at times but defended well.

The thing is concentration levels from everybody must be 100%.

One little slip and it's a goal. Concentration gets harder as the games goes on and when mental fatigue kicks in.

Would this be Celtic's best away result in Europe in last 10 years?

I'd probably put it third behind beating Lazio in the Europa and Anderlecht 3-0 in the Champions League.

Scales has developed into a very efficient central defender and is good on the ball to.

Agree 100%. Big Liam is consistently one of our best performers. A nailed on starter every week. Superb last night.

Updated probabilities for UCL Top 8 and Top 24.

They count in the changes in Elo points resulting from domestic league matches played since MD2 of UCL.

For me the next home game v Leipzig is crucial, they need pts badly and are a dangerous opponent. They will be targeting us to kick start the CL season so i'm v wary of them. If Celtic can win this game they'll definitely be in the driving seat but they must not lose this game.
Domestically celtic should not fear any team in the league, I watched Hibs v Hearts yesterday out of boredom and can seriously say i have never seen a worse standard of football from two team supposed to be top teams in scotland. Pure rank tbh

Heading to the Dundee match on Wednesday. Any tips on a good place to park?

yeah good parking in the housing estate next to ground off london road (Barrowfield & Yate) they're a bit rough but safe. i normally get the train into Dalmarnock and then walk back into city centre (25min walk). suppose depends if you're staying over or in a hurry back for the boat

That game and Villa are two I would maybe expect us to lose but think there's points to be had in the other three matches. We should be able to make it into the top 24. Scoreline vs Dortmund was concerning but I would have been delighted with 4 points from those opening three games. Really only expected 3 tbh.

What chance Rangers go into liquidation again or similar?

I think Kris Boyd needs a hug.

i've been saying this for about 4-5 years now. They're only getting by these last few years from loans, shares and raising funds from whatever means necessary. Eventually it catches up with you and Sevco manager told the world about it on live tv last night, his days are numbered (apparently if he's sacked they will currently still have 4 ex managers on their pay roll) and we'll probably soon see The Rangers III version.
