The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

[ned]

Routine. We didn't have to be at our best. No more of a challenge than Motherwell.

A 2-0 defeat is respectable enough to keep Portuguese Peadar in a job for another while.  That and the fact they can't afford to sack him.

[Targetman]

Handy enough win today, no injuries picked up so on to the big one on Wednesday, that lovenkrands is a bitter man, it was killing him to say anything positive about Celtic, typical i suppose!

[Sheedy]

It was hilarious that rangers thought it necessary to put 2 stewards on guard at each post at the celtic end at the final whistle. They were determined Griffiths wasn't going to get tying a scarf on a post today.

I thought that too, Celtic should and could have buried them but in hindsight a 2 0 result will leave them thinking they are closing the gap on Celtic..................They are far from closing the gap on Celtic.

I listened to Radio Scotland after the game in the car and they were saying on it that if you take away the name Rangers from the game today it was just like a performance v Ross County & Hamilton etc. They said Rangers are no further down the road than they were 2 years ago, they also said that it was only 2-0 but it was so comfortable and as easy as last season without knocking in 5 goals.

Now bear in mind there is the likes of Chic Young etc on the programme so for these men to come out with this is shocking but the biggest laugh i got all day was watching the game on Rangers TV (the streaming was excellent HD) and to here them yapping about Celtic was class, I was streaming away and didn't know where i was getting the game from until Sevco had their first attack and the two commentators nearly screamed the mic's off it was then i realised i wasn't watching it on SKY...lol

Lol. Yep their idea of damage limitation. 

Going to Ibrox is hillarious these days. In a football sense it is no different to going to any other ground in Scotland but it has the added fun of their support spewing all their bile before sheepishly disappearing off home early.

Thay does not sound an awful lot different to what Sky can serve up.

Celtic fans have been shortlisted by Fifa for their fan award of the year.

The irony of it 

RULES OF ALLOCATION
'The Award rewards the best fan moment between November 2016 and August 2017 inclusive,
regardless of championship or nationality. This could be, for example, for a choreographed display
("tifo") display, chant, or other fan moment which  struck a chord with people globally and
expressed a special form of commitment and passion  for the supported team or football in general.'

The display in question was the end of season panorama display v Hearts, pity the video is crap quality

A good result (a draw) in Brussels on Wednesday would top off a great seven days.

[Targetman]

Yep a draw would be a good result but a win would be great, and its achievable if we don't concede an early goal, on yesterday's game the huns support are going mad as to who leaked info to the Celtic support about their big display, mad craic!!

[Dougal Maguire]

What big display?

[Targetman]

Before the game the huns had a display in the copeland road stand of the rangers crest with the words three letters emblazoned on our chest, then the Celtic support unfurled a banner saying three letters emblazoned on your grave R.I.P. they're not happy the Celtic fans got wind of it, class!!

[Dougal Maguire]

Yes, I took a look into the Rangers Media site. Some pretty bitter folk on there.
