Celtic Thread - 2023/24

[No.8]

Would have loved to go over. Just moved house so wasn’t an option. Will watch it though.

He dropped me off today and reminded me he was going. I said ‘All off to Dublin in the Green’ and he says ‘Aye. Fuck the King’ … think they are going to have to work on the lyrics there : ))

Formidable CEO of Rangers, James Bisgrove is reported to have offered the Celtic a small chance of increased allocation for the Old Firm games. He has apparently said the European allocation may be possible if Celtic can guarantee their fans sort their hygiene issues

So many stories about so many players, 99.9999% are obviously clickbait and guys of 44 still living at their Ma’s looking for attention.

For me we are still requiring a LB a Goalie, a striker and Tete if we can get him. I never believed a big money signing was on because who in the category will come to Scotland. My belief is we don’t need to spend £15m on one player anyway. We have discovered players for a fraction of that who will bring in a similar amount, do that again as waiting for guys with choices will never end up choosing us. Sad but true.

Looking forward to our game with Wolves, still without CCV and Johnstone and that’s a weaker defence. Big Rocky will hopefully start but we need a LB and RB moving forward. Hopefully Yang can show us what’s he’s about and the same for the best player ever and young Odin.

Feeling hopeful.

So, is Joe past his sell-by date?

Not at all. He needs competition.

Cmon that made me laugh. When I read the headline on FF I was about to blow a fuse

The money your support save on tickets could go towards soap / deodorant

Must be the only club to send season ticket holders a reminder to wash as fellow supporters were complaining about the BO.

You can’t have that and not be mocked

Awwwwww FFS he’s been absolutely rotten since signing! You can’t just blindly back every player ffs

Google the picture of him at the Souttar goal. When Tav was lining up that free kick I said to my mate if this is on target it’s a goal. Boom

He was never great and for a tall keeper was never that commanding but as well as the odd fuck up he would pull off the odd worldy. He has nothing now and needs replaced.

One thing that stands out with Hart , and he’s always had this, is he is a great communicator. At Ibrox when you went behind and before you kicked off Hart was running round every player in the team geeing them up. A great trait to have but unfortunately for him he’s passed it.

Last season the Top clubs in Scotland started McLaughlan / McGregor at Rangers, Gordon at Hearts, Marshall at Hibs and Hart at Celtic. A retiral home for Keepers well past their best

It’s a fair trade. You can slag us for some who are averse to a shower. We will slag you for being the most gullible, deluded, believe any fucking thing, get all over confident, then descend into contradicting everything you said about your players as they can’t match the hype as you call them all the useless shitebag of the day Oh, a we win all the trophy’s so I suppose you need something.

Gordon was still class until his leg break.

I agree but still past his best. I actually rate Zander Clark as a very decent back up keeper. We missed a trick by not bringing him in ourselves. If I remember correctly you got him free last day of the window

Shut it smelly

Anyway you posted a whole load of posts from FF slating the team.

I’ve posted nothing to suggest we’ll win the league. I was advising others to lump on Celtic ffs

You’re the one contradicting yourself

He is nowhere Craig keeper wise.
You do know for a keeper past his best he was the football Writers POTY in 2022.

Aye and Sandy Jardine got it in 1986. Doesn’t mean they are playing at their best

He’s a very decent back up. Celtic and Hearts had at least two keepers each better than Rangers keepers.

I wasn’t solely referring to you. I read your stuff and know you are more of a realist. But you too got a bit frisky.

Sandy was brilliant that season as well.As he was every season at Hearts.
Craig was playing as good as he ever has been in 2022.Club and International wise.
Just because your old player wise doesn't mean you cannot be as good as when your a young player.
Craig Gordon was brilliant every season he played for Hearts.
People forget he won 5 SPL titles with Celtic.
Class keeper.
I would have said Cruickie and Niemi were our best keepers until Craig returned for his second spell at Hearts.
Now I rate him as our best.

Antii Neimi was a vastly underrated Keeper. I thought he was excellent

Did McLaughlan not win an award while at Hearts?

I was at Jardines 1000th game. Hearts v Rangers at Tynecastle. He was one of my all time favourite Rangers players.
Gary Stevens / Trevor Steven were brilliant together but purely as players I’d take Jardine over Stevens

Sandy was a central defender at Hearts.
Playing alonside Roddy McDonald and then Craig Levein.
McGrain and Jardine the two best Scottish fullbacks in my lifetime.
Danny McGrain what a player.

McGrain was my favourite player when a lad. He was brilliant. Jardine was an excellent player too, but for me at least, not as good as Danny.

Boruc was a great keeper. The best I’ve seen. No mention?
