The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

[Carmen Stateside]

Good win for the Celts this morning, plus two goals for the Tyrone man Mc Ginn.

[Hoof Hearted]

Did you see footage of King Henrik training with Celtic this morning. He is over for some dinner for Chris Sutton on Sunday night. If only you could turn the clock back 1o years !

[Celt_Man]

9 nil win and no comments on it till now!! Something not right about that!!

[mylestheslasher]

Mad scoreline and surely is not good news for Scottish soccer when aberdeen are getting hammered like that.

[Sheedy]

think it says more bout the standard of scottish football. good to see stokes banging in the goals though.

[tyroneman]

You win your previous match 9-0 with both CF getting hat tricks. So what do you do?  Break the team up and move one CF to the wing where he has been sh/te to date and let a complete waste of space in to play up front.

Well done Lennon. Fcukin clueless.

[tyroneman]

Last 5 games: 3 draws (at home) 1 loss and 1 win. 9 points dropped. Rangers 2 ahead with a game in hand. Truly pathetic.

Lennon should have had the wit to learn his trade from the bottom up. Just go. Now.

Er, should that not be nine points dropped.

That is all.

[tyroneman]

Yr right. Even worse (maths not my strong point). Changed that - ta

Still needs to go asap

[Hoof Hearted]

it used to be great heading out to watch a Celtic match, especially aginst the huns, the atmosphere used to be great. But now it's completely different.

I mean, who are these guys (tonights team) ?

26 Forster
03 Izaguirre
05 Majstorovic
11 Cha Du-Ri
25 Rogne
14 McGinn (McCourt 70)
16 Ledley (Brown 66)
18 Ki Sung-Yeung
27 Murphy
49 Forrest
88 Hooper (Stokes 35)

Jesus, gone are the great days of watching Larsson, Sutton, Lambert, McNamara, Balde, Mjallby, Petrov etc etc

[tyroneman]

Only Forrest and Hooper would even make the bench on the last great team of MONs

Oh the days of a home-grown team!

[Clown]

The economics of the SPL dictate that Celtic (and Rangers) can only target Championship players (Hooper, Ledley), players from other SPL clubs (Stokes, Wilson), free transfers or players less than 1.5m (Cha, McCourt, McGinn, Kayal, Majstorovic), loan signings (Forster) or take a chance on young foreigners (Rogne, Izzaguire, Misun, Mizuno, Ki) that no-one has really heard of and hope to develop them into good players. They did sign a mexican international for nearly 3m but for some reason he's not getting a look in under Lennon??

The days of signing players for 5-7m from Premier League and paying them 40grand a week are long over for Celtic. I can't see this changing in the near future, if anything it'll probably get worse
The celtic squad has declined steadily since O'Neills days.

You get what you pay for, I don't expect Celtic to be qualifying for the group stages of the CL anytime soon by buying in these markets, but they should be winning the title from a financially crippled Rangers club. Celtic have out-spent them in transfer windows for years now.

Get intae 'em !!

What words are to the song the Celtic fans are singing in the tune of Amhrán Na BhFiann.
