Celtic v Spurs
Live Sky sports 2
KO: 5.30pm

Class looking forward to this game, finishing work early (hopefully shortly) heading to the pub, getting a good seat and a lovely cold pint.................. ahhhhh mouth watering already.

Wonder who Tony's supporting? 

HAIL HAIL...............the CELTS are HERE.

[T Fearon]

Ah sure its only a friendly. Here's hoping for a great season for both clubs

[the green man]

Talk today on the net is that WGS is interested in Paul Robinson, left back from West Brom...
...Did I mention that he's 29.

So was Barry Robson when he signed. Age aint nothing but a number

Sorry, is that your input?
Care to quote the whole piece and comment on it, the age was put in as an aside.
And for your information age is more then a number when talking about professional soccer players. We already have a LB who is probably on a par with this player re: ability, and he is a year younger at 28, so why bother with this numpty?

Celts pretty poor last night, expected that result tbh had Spurs h/t and f/t at 11/4.  The defence made Bent look world-class.

Dipped into the highlights of Celtic v. Spurs this morning (aka Tonys creamfest) and heard distinctly the Celtic fans singing a tune that was of the fairly green varety. If Rangers fans were singing something as "orange" we'd be having multiple page threads here would we not?

Maybe it was the same tune but with different words? The version I know is about a uniform.

Poor show alright about last nights match, WGS is still tinkering with the team before the start of the season next weekend.
Bit worried about Mick McManus going off injured, considering how dodgy the defense is with him, it's going to be even worse without him and the options aren't great for replacements - maybe getting Tamas has become a necessity now.

Yeah most definitely, need to get him in ASAP. Also think we a lacking a creative player in the middle of the park. hartely, brown and robson are great battlers and will run all day but Id like to see an other option in there to take some pressure of Naka and Aiden.

Good win last night. Really looking forward to Sunday now, especially as it doesn't clash with Armagh's AI Quarter Final

Anyone else going over to see the flag unfurled?


PS Heard the scousers had a banner at Ibrox last Saturday which read. "On behalf of the whole of Liverpool thank you for your attempts to destroy Manchester!"

I see one of the scottish papers asked 20 journalists who would top the league this year.

All 20 said 1. Celtic 2. Rangers I believe.

[Rav67]

Good win last night although Feyenoord's defence was abysmal.  Interesting to see WGS go for a 4-3-3 formation as he's never tried this before as far as I can recall.  Worryingly Celtic still have not been linked with any left backs yet, desperately need one in before the window closes.

Transfer news...................................

Tamas deal now dead in the water. - unconfirmed.



Pulled this from another site:

"Have heard on the grapevine although I am not tying my flag to the pole just yet that Celtic will be announcing 3 new signings on thursday these being...wait for it.....

Dario Simic (AC Milan)
Christophe Metzelder (Real Madrid)

And.......

Hernan Crespo (formerly Chelsea now a free agent!)

Rumour has it that Lawall has been in Milan all week tying up the deals. Dont know if its true but heres hoping!"

Simic linked from way before euro2008

metzelder would be great
as would the exp of crespo

Still need at least a LB ,a second RB wouldnt be too bad either

so far Celtic are back linked with crossas from barca, Basa - the c defender from le mans,
Lens full-back Nadir Belhadj ,Southampton winger Nathan Dyer and another 20-year-old Barcelona midfielder, Jeffren Suarez, on loan.

Lads i can't remember the guy's name but he won us the cup and played either left or right back and tore his achilles last year, is there any sign of him coming back from injury (well i can remember it but i'm fucked if i'm gonna try and spell it )
