The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

[Archie Mitchell]

Not great indeed. Hopefully another week of training will bring them up to scratch to get a result.

[the green man]

Strachans Celtic wouldn't have lost that

Maybe not, but it was Strachan's celtic that got us there!

that was very much tongue in cheek

[Orior]

You guys seem very positive about turning the result around away from home. Maybe you have to be an optimist to be a Celtic fan?

[tyroneStatto]

disappointing result after such a promising pre-season but i wouldnt rule out celtic winning 1-0 away and then winning on penalties. have to win away at some point!

[T Fearon]

Not optimistic at all given our disastrous away record in Champions League. If Mowbray turns this around he will be immortalised.

its the away record IN the group stages of the CL is the problem.
Celtic won 3-1 away toAjax in MON's first campaign if you remember correctly.

I blame strachan ,as his ineptitude as manager has foisted the qualifying stages of CL upon Celtic and mowbray when he is still only settling into the job.
At least Strachan had a stong combative side to pick up and use from MON.
Mowbray has had to start from a lot lower down.
If Celtic had won last seasons league then I'd say they would have given a good account of themselves inthe CL.
Still have a chance, but its gonna be tough.

[Main Street]

Couldn't get to watch it or even listen to it.
There is a big difference between beating a team at a similar stage of preseason like Ajax and beating a team, who are in mid season, on their own turf. Good result for the Russians but Celtic still have every chance in the away leg.

Strachan had his moments, like the 2 games against Spartak.

are we out of europe altogether if we dont turn this around or do we go into the europa league?

[tyroneStatto]

think i read somewhere that it would be the qualifying stages of the europa league.

[AAAA]

Yeah 4th round qualifier of europa league i think

[the colonel]

Was at the game, crowd stated great but obviously got deflated when the goal was scored. Serious amount of chances. N'Guemo was best man on the pitch. I thought they were minging and I think we will beat them out there. Our guys ran out of steam so another weeks training will help.

Thought it was strange bringing Fox on and putting Maloney into the middle, especially with Crosas on the bench

[Clown]

Who was the captain last night and what was the attendance?

[the colonel]

I think Caldwell was captain. I'd say attendance was about the 55,000 mark
