The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

Agree with that GDA. I think those rumours are complete and utter shite. So many injuries to contend with tonight. Bad news that Mark Wilson is out for 6 months by the looks of things. Just has no luck with that knee. Still quite confident of getting a win tonight. Rennes are nothing special. Hooper definitely needs a rest so I would drop him to the bench. If ourselves and Udinese win tonight and we beat Atletico at home in the next game, we are qualified from a very tough group. 3-2 win with Stokes getting two and Commons returning to form with a goal

Would go with this team:

Zaluska
Cha Maj Loovens Matthews
Forrest Kayal Wanyama Commons
McCourt
Stokes

Official Line up:

Forster

Cha
Maj
Loovens
Matthews

Forrest
Kayal
Wanyama
McCourt

Stokes
Samaras

Subs:Zaluska, Hooper, Commons, P George, J Chalmers, M Fraser & C McGregor

Delighted to see McCourt get a start but it kind of evens out with a certain Greek starting up front. Still, a very attacking team from Lenny. Wanyama will have to put in a massive shift to protect two accident prone central defenders

Samaras

What channel are you watching them winning on?

It's called supporting your team Family Guy.True,Celtic aren't very good these days but if you support a team you stick with them through thick and thin.Simple really.

Doing well so far. Lets keep it up. That zonal marking pish loses us another goal. Cant believe I am saying this but well done to Sammy for that second goal. Brilliant knock on from the big man. He`s still shite

. Rennes are woeful defensively and we need to keep attacking them at every opportunity. Get Forrest on the ball as much as possible and he will inflict a lot of damage

Family guy · November 03, 2011, 09:46:15 PM

I duno was just a sharp statement i mean cause did them in a bet and then seen they were 1 down and so went on a rant,be a good win for them and fair play to lennon if he pulls it off

Forever Green · November 03, 2011, 10:02:46 PM

Well done Bhoys. Fantastic performance considering how many players were out injured. Also, a big well done to Samaras. Played very well in setting two goals up. Delighted with that result. Lets kick on from this and finally get our season started!! A massive well done to Marcus Fraser also. For a 17 year old to come into our defence and look so composed was great to see. Lots of young talent at Celtic.

Hail Hail!!!

GDA will be on a bender for a few days.

I think they said Wilson will be out for 3 months.

Loads of empty seats in Park Head tonight,how times have changed from a few short years ago.

Aye, got the operation on the knee last night. Better news than what was expected but still crushing for him as he has battled over the last couple of years to stay injury free.

Better attendance tonight than a lot of people thought it would have been considering our recent woes. The current financial situation doesn't help a lot of fans either

Club Rossa · November 04, 2011, 08:19:49 AM

Samaras put in a decent shift last night for a change.Stokes took his 2nd goal well and Kayal was very strong in the tackle though he gave a few balls away too.Defence was suspect again and i would like to see Rogne and Mulgrew back in there.

it was good to see the win on thurs nite. would be fantastic if celtic could pull off an unlikely passage to the next round of the europa.

out of interest 3 middlesborough players today played in this game:

also, why can mowbray win the championship with west brom, currently do well with borough but fail miserably in a supposedly easier league with celtc?
