The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

Didn't see the game, but conceding two goals to Dunfermline (who would struggle to score twice against an Irish league side) and relying on an own goal and penalty ultimately for a win doesn't sound like much of an improvement

Don't comment on the game if you haven't seen it. Penalty was harsh for Dunfermline and for the own goal, if the Dunfermline player hadn't put it into the net, Rasmussen would have.

I though Celtic played alright. That new signing Braafeid looks like a good player. Any time he took it down the wings something came off from it. Rasmussen also looks like a good goal poacher and him and Keane could strike up a good partnership. From watching today, seems like Celtic can't play with Brown, Crossas and N'Guemo in a 3 man midfield. They played better when Keane was brought on for Crossas and seemed to be playing a 4-2-4.

why does this friendly match betwenn cliftonville and celtic youth team keep being brought up?

[T Fearon]

I don't know, it has nothing to do with the fact that Dunfermline would struggle to score twice against an Irish League Club

[tyroneStatto]

it has to be a good thing that kamara, rasmussen and keane all got on the scoresheet. hopefully the defence will start getting their act together as quick.

Too far behind in the league now to have a realistic chance of turing things around.  If Mowbray can win the Cup it may save his scalp and allow the team time to gel. 

[T Fearon]

It is hard to accept when the previous manager for all his faults, in each of his 4 seasons, had either won the league or ensured we were in contention to the very last day.

Wednesdy night is absolutely crucial for Mowbray. Rangers will I feel drop points at Fir Park, if Celtic fail to take advantage against a Hearts team in disarray, then there will be hell to pay. Having said that I wouldn't rule out Jim Jeffries outwitting our hapless manager

[illdecide]

Tony you're starting to get on like that baloon Pints FFS, i'm not overly happy with the way things have panned out and i'm sure Mugga would have done things different but judge him next season when he has his team in action and playing the way he wants them to play. I'm by no means giving up on this season either, we've to play the huns twice and they have to play tough games too that they usually drop points there every year without fail so it is by no means over but very difficult.

I do agree with you that if we drop points tomorrow night and the Huns don't then it's mission impossible but lets see how tomorrow night goes first

[rossie mad]

Tony will you be hoping that the hoops drop points against hearts and that rangers win?

[T Fearon]

Mugga is perhaps an apt description for Mowbray, though I do believe you meant Mogga. Even worse tommorrow night is the scenario where Rangers drop points tommorrow and Celtic fail to take advantage and drop poinst themselves.

I woudn't put 2p on this Celtic side to win any of the two remaining Old Firm games and I fear that by the time they come around it won't matter anyway.

[illdecide]

It sounds like your better off at White Hart Lane (have i spelt that ok Toney )

[Club Rossa]

Hearts never need any extra motivation to play Celtic,what Jeffries will ensure is that they are even more fired up this time around.
I once had a conversation with an ex Celtic captain who totally despised Jeffries and said that his total hatred for all things Celtic were well known in scottish football circles.

COME ON THE CELTS

Sorry, but there are 15 games left to play (2 of them against the Hun) that's 45 points to play for, this league is still very much alive - albeit the Hoops have to put together a run of victories. The buns WILL drop more and more points over the next lot of games.

Hail Hail

[tyroneStatto]

good performance from the celts tonight and 2 points gained on the huns - though should have been 3 points but for another scandalous decision in chopping off a perfectly good motherwell goal.
