yeh, he took his goal really well and is starting to look like a real player.

robson at left back was a strange one, he did ok (better than naylor) but it aint his favoured spot.

caldwell has improved immensely this year, he looked really composed and him and loovens worked quite well together, despite conceding two

anyone for paradise on the 5th for united?

Will find out on Sunday if my tickets are sorted, have been told shouldn't be a problem though, seems that there's a few tickets floating about atm.

£85.00 bus, HSS and match ticket all in.

Competition for two Man Utd tickets in this week's View....oh and I nearly forgot, a letter from yours truly

GD, might see you there next Wednesday night. Prize tickets have arrived, Section 104 North Stand lower half way up, near the halfway line, class

How am I going to find my brick on the LL wall in the dark though?

I can't believe how tough it is to get tickets for a Wed night game...I know it's Man U but i still thought there'd be a few floating about...

was at the match yesterday. a few things about it.

great to see we finished with paddy mc court and cillian sheridan as the strike force. neither looked particularly out of place.

we werent great, but got the job done so cant ask for any more.

im also liking that they play different things after the goals, instead of just chelsea dagger. they played the pogues yesterday and it was class.

i sat in the main stand for the first time and the atmosphere was seriously quiet. in fact, only for the jungle bhoys, the green brigade and the lads in the upper jock stein stand there would be nothing. its a pity and i know the weather aint great, but hopefully as the season wears on the atmosphere picks up.

hail hail

Agreed - I wish McCourt would get a start to show what hes capable of

Paul Ince is a complete tool and lacks class....I can't believe i'm agreeing with Walter Smith here but he's spot on with his assesment.

Illdecide

William Orr CSC advertising trips to Man Ure game in to-day's Irish News, though they may require you to travel over with them. Nevertheless Im sure they would want to sell the match tickets, if they don't get a full booking. Contact is Martin. PM if you need the phone numbers or check page 49 of to-day's Irish News. Worth a try.Good luck.

illdecide · October 31, 2008, 09:16:12 AM

Cheers T, i'll give them a call shortly. My problem is i can't travel with them as i'm going to my sisters house in Prestwick, but i'll try them anyway...

FFS Now Big Loovens is out injured for Wednesday night as well

aye i read that yesterday...Sure O Dea is good cover. I think he's every bit as good as what we have anyway, the lad just needs a good run in the team for confidence

anportmorforjfc · October 31, 2008, 01:50:06 PM

is any1 going to the game? should be a brilliant atmosphere.

T Fearon · October 31, 2008, 02:08:03 PM

I'm going, definitely, GD,probably, and I'lldecide, hopefully!

I fear its going to be a wee bit of a damp squib due to injuries (hope I'm wrong) and certainly wont compare to the last time in 2006 when a 1-0 win for the Bhoys saw them qualify for the the last 16 for the first time. That whole day was unbelievable and unforgettable. Boats off early morning, then a slow boat, a Tim Trawler (because it was jam packed with Tims) finally got out of Belfast about 12 noon, arrived in Stranraer, had to be bussed up to Ayr, train on into Glasgow, got to Hotel, checked in, got a free taxi ride (courtesy of a complete stranger, a fellow passenger on corporate expenses) to Celtic Park, got in with about ten minutes of the first half over, and the rest is history.Unbelievable day

PS I am flying over this time

Our bus was one of the unlucky ones in 2006 we were sat on the tarmac at Belfast port watching a slow crawl of buses get on that last ferry that day as they cancelled the HSS due to the weather.
We had to make the journey back home then and get pissed in the pub watching the match.
Still think Celtic have enough fight in them to give Man U a good game next week.
