The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

[tyroneman]

At least Murphy will be a big target man.................oops

Unless SWP is really 6ft 7 this is worrying

while ennon would not have been my choice of manager, he is doing all the right things.
Sorting out problem positions at full back and getting cover/competition for places.
Midfield he has obtained a creating player and a tigerish dynamo in the Mexican pocket rocket !
I would expect that Lennon will be looking for a key striker yet as he knows we have not had a decent striker since Larsson left.
I believe he is still after Keane, but Villa will get him.
Its possible MON will loan out one of his surplus 'stars' to Celtic and there is still the chance that bellamy would come back if Celtic have the cash. Bellamy has said as much himself!
Scott mcdonald was good in spl but not good enough in europe - he has been inj more than fit this past two years and selling him was a good move. Lennon getting rid of players who are just not good enough or who areproblematic (caldwell / Boruc)
I still think Jimmy bullard will sign. Maybe boetang too !

[lynchbhoy]

.......by the way
still no comments from anyone on the re-signing of Mulgrew???

does this not prove that strachan was a narky girly irrational  muppet!

A decent draw for Celtic when you consider who they could have been playing.

No soft draw there. Braga came second in the Portuguese league last season and as debutants in the CL, will be very hungry. When you see the Armenian and Macedonian sides in there, could have done much better. Still, it's a draw Celtic can come out of.

From what I have seen of Murphy, he does not have aerial ability.
A big lad without that ability does not justify his presence on a team

Celtic could not have drawn those smaller teams though, there was only a limited amount of possible draws and Braga believe iit or not was one of the best they could have hoped for.

Supposedly on these streams!!!

Ridiculous that BBC Scotland didnt do a deal for these games bearing in mind that TV Rights are not sold as part of the Champions League package.

they must be expecting snow, playing with the orange football

Harsh enough penalty decision, but some finish.

1-0 Braga after 25 minutes.

[charlieTully]

[charlieTully]

three nil. cant bear to watch anymore.
