The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

And thankfully the team can only get better, players starting to find their form again and a few close to coming back!
Not sure about this new fella Blackman though, only 21 and has a bit of a journeyman status about him already, hoping someone at Celtic has seen something in him and he's settled down.

See the cream buns are getting taken to court AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your right there - great to see.

Back to within 7 points wouldnt seem such an uphill struggle. Just hope they can get past the Pars.

Interesting performance from the guys on Saturday. Solid at the back (for a change) Wanyama is soo cool on the ball that gives me a heart attack when there is about 3 players around him but always seems to do the right thing. Forrest some nice touchs and runs, Ledley definitely getting to how he is expected to play, Kayal solid, Stokes got the goals and Hooper has such a football brain that he is always a danger. He may not be scoring the goals but hes creating chances for others through his passing and runs.

But that Egyptian guy is useless.

El Kaddouri is Morrocan. I agree he is an absolute bombscare, cant even control the ball when it comes to him. Utter pish he is. I think Andre Blackman will be a good signing. Was and still is highly rated down in England but coundnt settle down beacuse all the clubs said he had an attitude problem. We are also interested in Mikael Lustig, a very highly rated Swedish defender who is available on a free transfer in January from Rosenberg.

Win tomorrow night, it will be down to seven points. Home to St Mirren on Saturday which should also be a handy win. With the huns away to Kilmanock this weekend, we could be top come the game on the 28th December. Kenny Sheils always puts an attacking team out so it will interesting to see how the huns deal with that especially considering a team like St Johnstone had 58% of the possesion at Ibrox. Kilmarnock will either win by 2 or 3 goals or get humped by 6 or 7 goals. Just one of them teams lol. I still maintain McCoist is not a good manager and will not know how to handle a bad game or two which could derail their whole season

Away to Peterhead in the Scottish Cup. Draw was made today. Celtic for the treble!!!!!

Still in the Europa league as well!
Quads away..

Forever Green · November 22, 2011, 10:50:23 PM

lol forgot about the Europa League. Easy

Apologies to El Khadouri but he defends like an Egyptian

. If Blackman has an attitude he'll fit in well with Lennon and Stokes! Sign Stephen Ireland and it could be fun.

Forever Green · November 23, 2011, 08:04:32 PM

Nearly 20 mins gone and it is 2-0 for the Bhoys. Hooper and Forrest getting the goals

Muzz · November 23, 2011, 09:39:27 PM

2-1 nervy final moments but still ground out the win.

Now come Saturday could be 4 points before gers kick off.

Ki missing that penalty seemed to dent their confidence a serious bit. Good to get the result in the end. Commons must have got an injury, disappointing as he seemed to be playing well in that 1st half

Why did Stokes not take it?

Not sure.

Was a game of two halves literally, missing the peno and then conceding the goal = team fell to bits, they lost all there shape and formation. Will put it down to nerves.
See Lenny having a go at the fans going down the tunnell.
Will possibily be only 4 points behind @5pm on Saturday, some change in a fortnight!
Never write the Hoops off. Keep the Faith.

Outstanding performance from the bhoys today. Have to say, Samaras was sensational, absolutely unplayable at times. Hopefully he keeps it up. Hooper really hitting form now after those couple of games rest he had. Stokes involved in everything again. Wee Dylan McGeouch scored a stunning goal. What a star this bhoy is going to be. The huns have to be raging we took him back to where he belongs. Overall, our best performance of the season. Big game on Wednesday against Atletico which could get us into next stage of the Europa. Hopefully we keep the same level of performance going as we did today

ONeill · November 26, 2011, 05:23:13 PM

Weren't they 15 points behind a few weeks ago? (Almost) Some turnaround.

rossie mad · November 26, 2011, 05:32:08 PM

Honestly cant see killie doing the celts a favour tomorrow.rangers should bring it back to seven tomorrow but their struggling with injuries at the moment and have a small squad so may drop points over the christmas period.
Great result today against a side who are doing well this season playing some nice football and was our boogie team the last few years.

rossie mad · November 26, 2011, 05:38:59 PM

Best of luck to pat fenlon with hibs.tough job with the hibees at the moment with the players playing poor,the fans very annoyed with the board and the squad and alot of the senior players coming out in favour of billy brown being appointed as manager.
