City v Celtic post match

Talking to the Celtic fans near us they're not that enamoured with Roberts, Junk was the word used, all one foot etc... I thought he looked the real deal actually and would hope we get him back in the summer.

Also asked which was better in Van Dijk or Denayer and they were evenly split on which one was, one said Denayer constantly baled out Van Dijk.

The vast majority of Celtic fans love wee Roberts. He is becoming a better player with us and I hope we can keep him for another year. Dijik and Deneyer were great. You could do a lot worse with both.
 
Love it when the Old Firm big themselves up. Against the English they play a high intensity cos they have summat to prove to the Premier League, which they'd rip up if they played in it (sic). A cup game's different to the league week in week out, a rational borne out of the fact they dominate the Scottish League playing clubs that struggle to get crowds of 5000 unless them pissed up twats are in town!


Your ability to get into the minds of five thousand people and assess their merits is truly astounding.

And here was me thinking Jesus feeding the five thousand with a bag of rolls and a tin of sardines was good going!!

Songs will be written.
 
Don't think we learned too much last night, or that there were that many good signs.
Adarabioyo and Maffeo were a bit meh.
Zabaleta good at times but it looked like a piss take that you would see in a testimonial at times with him turning up in the hole behind the striker. Never going to see that in a proper game.
Nolito probably our best performer, also think Sane showed some good signs and don't get the criticism he's receiving on twitter and elsewhere since

Gundogan took the wrong option a couple of times in the second half when there were goals to be had.

Big Willy > Bravo
 
Funny because if Celtic had got their wish and switched to the English League then the Lisbon Lions would probably have never qualified for the European Cup.

In contrast, because there were so many decent English outfits in the 60s and 70s, most English teams only got one bite at the cherry.

All Celtic had to do was finish above Rangers and they were guaranteed qualification every season.

Anyway, let them continue to take the bits of the argument that suits their cause.

We beat the best, Leeds at the time, home and away in the 1970 semi of the then European Cup.

Home and away.

Scottish football was a lot stronger back in those days, Celtic were a great team, they played the English champions Leeds off the park when they met them at a later date.
There was no desire then to join the English league, this has happened since the huge influx of money in English football, back in the eighties when English clubs were banned, there was am exodus of top players to Rangers and Celtic.
 
The funniest bit last night was when they all put their phone lights on, you're not at a Michael Bolton concert you fuckin' idiots, its a football game. "We're just hear to patty" - of course you are, you finished last and didn't win a fuckin' game.

Anyone know what happened next to the Celtic fans in the second half? Looked like things were being thrown at one point but couldn't work out if it was City or Celtic fans.
 
seriously it garbage !!!! to watch
no urgency couldn't create chances like against chelsea spuds ect

so seriously right now i can say its 2015-2016 2:0 except kast at least we won a cup this year i don't see how
As for CL which is the thread :)

2 fucking draws againt Celtic ! what do you expect next ? a draw against a strong team then we are out as early as possible
 
No it wasn't. Tierney and Sinclair would be in. I accept you made nine changes, but, look at them. They cost over £100m.

Don't forget your first team couldn't beat us either.

A wee tad sour grapes me thinks.

You have no divine right to win. And two attempts at a shite Scottish team and you get 2 points.

It's either we are better than you give us credit for or you are a lot worse than you believe.

It can't be both.

Your shout.

hilarious how the only clubs who talk about money are the ones with no money , sour grapes ? , were in the draw on Monday , and your not , in fact your not in europe at all . At least with Rangers back in your league , you will have two full houses instead of the empty seats and shit atmosphere at your stadium every week , whilst sleep walking to another title in the least competitive league in the world. Now jog on.

You need a lie down.

Just putting on my trainers.

No sour grapes though. Don't like them. Although I do love sour sweets.

I know, I can't work that out either. Perhaps during my jog I will have an epiphany and come to my senses. Or more likely, collapse in a cardiac induced heap.

I do have nice trainers though.

Every cloud.

Thanks for your input.
 
Expected 2 wins against Celtic, wouldn't have expected 2 draws. Didn't get the impression Pep was too arsed about winning last night considering he only used 1 sub, his on-field and sub bench selection.
 
I've noticed that some younger Rangers fans affiliate themselves with Manure. It must be the previous few years playing in the pub leagues.

Credit to Celtic on their performances on the pitch. I thought we played OK in Glasgow (but for defensive mistakes) but were shoddy in the second half last night.

If we are going to hit low corners let's find somebody who can drill the ball in. Had enough of the high floaters that barely land in the box.

So, you're a Michael Bolton fan? How else would you know that?

I was wondering where it came from.

Thanks for that. Has he any up and coming gigs you're planning to take in?

As for not winning a game? Well, that's football sometimes.

But, Michael Bolton? Who would have thought it?

Has he still got daft curly hair?

Your funny, make me laugh any relation to billy con? :-)
 
Just seen the highlights and as I thought at the time Nolito was not offside when he scored, another shit decision...

If only you were as erudite and articulate as Magicpole has been throughout this thread you could've used something a bit better than, 'jog on'...

I thought it was a good goal too. Would have been pissed off it it happened to us.
