Another cracker of a refereeing decision in favour of Celtic as well .

[the green man]

I listened to the game on Radio Scotland. They seemed pretty annoyed that Boruc didnt get the line. I havent seen the challenge, so cant really comment on it. The way they were talking, it was a career threating tackle. Was it that bad?

Doesn't look too good

Sorry lads, don't know why thais was locked! 

Anyway more good green news:



Celtic midfielder Aiden McGeady has recovered from calf and knee problems to travel for the Champions League visit to Aalborg.

A decision will be taken on his fitness after training on Monday evening.

Striker Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink, who has not played since injuring his groin against Hamilton last month, is also included in Gordon Strachan's squad.

Massimo Donati misses out with a broken toe but fellow midfielder Paul Hartley's ankle knock has improved.

Hartley picked up the injury on Scotland duty but was considered fit enough to take a place among the substitutes at St Mirren on Saturday.

Barry Robson played for an hour in the 3-1 win after recovering from a groin strain incurred in a Scotland training session ahead of last week's friendly with Argentina.

"It is a must-win game for us," said former Celtic skipper Lennon. "I think it will be a British style game.

"We are in good form and we want to get that monkey off our back in terms of winning away from home.

"We have plenty of attacking options and players capable of scoring a goal at any time.

"It is frustrating that qualifying is out of our hands but we have to get on and win this game and that is not a certainty by any means."

check this out, hilarious!!!

"In 2003, Celtic's UEFA Cup final year, I went on a bus from Shawlands, Glasgow to the Celtic v Blackburn game at Ewood Park. We won 2-0 and wanted to celebrate after the match, so we asked the driver to take us to Blackpool. At first he refused and after we had a whip round and gave him 80 quid he agreed to take us for a few hours.

I can't remember the name of the pub, but we were in there a few hours, got a wee lock in an nat. Anyway, the driver came into the pub and told us to get ready to leave for Glasgow, we had five minutes.
We were well oiled and slowly and drunkenly made our way to the bus.

On the bus we were all getting comfy for a wee kip on the way home, when someone from the pub came running out shouting that we'd left one of the boys behind. We were all ignoring the driver's pleas to go and get him, so the driver and a few of the barstaff brought this 20 stone bear of a guy out of the pub. He was steamin' and well asleep. They huffed and puffed him onto the bus and laid him on the floor in the aisle between the seats.

We didn't really take much notice as we were pashed ourselves and trying to get a kip.

Thing is, the guy was snoring like a freacking train and about 10 miles north of Gretna my cousin Brian woke up asking what the heck the noise was.

As a few more of us woke up we looked at the lump of a guy on the floor. Some of the guys tried to wake him up but had no luck, then oor Brian said that the guy wasnae on the bus on the way down to Blackburn.

I was laughing ma ershe off and said that I hope he doesnae stay in Blackpool.

Anyway, one of the guys had a look for the guy's wallet to see if he had some ID on him. He found a driving license and it had an address in Hamilton on it. So we told the driver to drop him off.

When we got to the guy's house we had to drag him off the bus as he still wouldn't wake up. We managed to get his keys out his pocket and open his front door. We laid him on his couch and left his keys on the mantlepiece and left.

As we closed the front door behind us and we were walking down his drive one of his neighbours was coming in from the nightshift and she said. 'If you're looking for big Tam, he's away to Blackpool with the wife and kids for a fortnight.


Wonder what he did when he woke up??? "

ring th eticket office
you can usually pick up a ticket before the gam if you book an pay in advance

go early though, as the queue before matches can be a hoor

[Rav67]

I'm heading on Saturday too Gaffer, getting a ticket from my friend who lives in Glasgow and is in a club there.  You should be ok for getting a ticket I would imagine because there looks to be a few empty seats at most home league games this season from watching the highlights.

If you're worried about tickets pm me, I could probably ask him to get an extra one.

[Gaffer]

Thanks Rav67. If my man does not come up with the ticket he promised me , I ll get onto you and take it from there

New song copying the Liverpool Fernando Torres effort:

The Rangers huns they wanted him
Gorgeous Gorgious
He turned them down now he's a Tim
Gorgeous Gorgious
He's everybody's favourite Greek
He'll score us a goal almost every week
Gorgeous Gorgious Celtic's number 9!

[Tommy Tight Lips]
