Celtic banter 10

Well done to Lee Congelton

He has written an article in which he says Daddy Lawwell is trying tto interfere with his recruitment policies, he has reminded Pedro that HE and NOT Pedro are in charge of bringing new players to club, Mr Congelton even says "he is an Accountant after all"
One for the good guys.

18 Apr 2024 23:04:51
All you need to do is look at how our transfers were done in the year when PL was gone and how we reverted to type after he came back.

18 Apr 2024 23:35:23
Congleton sounds like the kind of guy who wants his daddy to buy a rolls royce but his daddy tells him he can only afford a morris minor, then he complains to all his mates that his daddy is a skinflint.

18 Apr 2024 13:24:06
Let's concentrate on ourselves and forget about all the noise from Sevco fans or SMSM nothing had been won yet waiting with baited breath for the remaining officials appointments foe the remaining games get it done as soon as possible let no one off the hook.

18 Apr 2024 13:53:18
Was just about to post something similar. we need a note of caution nothings been won and let's not get ahead of ourselves. its a hard run in with tricky trips to Dundee and killie never mind the big Sevconian and wee Sevconian.

Good morning my friends Enrico wondering how all panty wetters are feeling now?

Conceding league was over and that BR should leave now.

Celtic team have clicked at right time and BR's experience is driving it guys you know.

We must finish season strong and complete the double.

Hail Hail.

18 Apr 2024 11:30:43
Very true 👍. Most of us keep the faith but some get carried away nowadays.

18 Apr 2024 11:55:16
Enrico. Glad Rangers have slipped up. But we haven't won the league yet. 5 games remaining and dodgy referees to deal with as well.

18 Apr 2024 11:34:43
Don't tempt fate enrico.

18 Apr 2024 11:43:12
We knew Celtic have regressed this season because our points total confirms that.

But we also knew that Sevco have also regressed this season.
Sevco have already dropped 2 points more this season with 5 league games to go, compared to last season.

18 Apr 2024 12:01:37
I think most of the negativity was directed at the Board and Recruitment shambles that hindered and damaged our progress, from a treble winning team. However, BR had his critics as well after some disappointing performances and results saw us knocked out of a cup early doors, finish bottom of our CL group and let an 8 point lead slip in the SPL.
Recently we have been playing better football in conjunction with injured players returning and very good team and individual performances all over the pitch - despite VAR controversies.
We have plenty still to do in what has been a difficult campaign for several reasons, but now are in a very good position.
If we win the SPL title (and Cup) , the manager and players should get every credit for turning things around, but the sins of the Board should not be forgotten or we will be sorry next season.

18 Apr 2024 13:17:52
I don't know if it's so much us turning things around or more of them collapsing.

19 Apr 2024 17:52:44
Our league consists of 38 matches . How we stand in points total after 10 15
2o or 25 matches is irrelevant and comparing points totals with other yrs at any stage may provide useless statistics. What every league is all about is. the position in league after 38 games . Of course we expect to win league each and every season and in our minds we are favourites from the outset to win it, so although points gained are not important, we always need to be at least up their knocking on the heals of the leaders, ready to take over as we approach the split .
Most teams, if not all have a lean period in season or drop points carelessly but Celtic usually finds a very strong and successful run at some stage of campaign which leaves our opponent looking up . Let’s hope with our stronger line outs with injuries healing up we are now on our victory run.

17 Apr 2024 22:28:41
What a brilliant week it's been for us so far. However, 3 points with 5 games to go I'm not counting my chickens just yet. But we're in a very, very strong position now.

17 Apr 2024 23:02:05
They had 6 points in the bag V R. County and Dundee to go 2 points ahead before a ball was kicked in the 2 games.2 points ahead to 3 behind in a few days but Baldermort thinks they are just unlucky as they should have beaten Motherwell 6-1 and we scored 3 goals against Celtic!

17 Apr 2024 23:37:14
I actually thought he carried himself well when he first came in but he's cracking under the pressure just like the rest of them. He's morphed into Beale 2.0 the past few weeks and it's delightful.

18 Apr 2024 00:45:19
Hes a game aways from shouting at people from a bush.

18 Apr 2024 01:12:35
Complaining that players were man marked and followed to the toilet was just hilarious.
I'm sure he now has a worse record over his first 25 games than Beale.
Maybe they will look to bring back Pedro or slippy G.

18 Apr 2024 07:00:04
Exactly kev. We have a good advantage but we can't relax. We just need to keep turning up and getting the 3 points.

18 Apr 2024 08:36:52
And they pesky Dundee players kicked a few off the line instead if letting gbthem in although not even bfkb knew what he was waffling about.

18 Apr 2024 09:23:10
I said it a long time ago when Motherwell done them at ibrox, that afterwards he seemed unhinged, he got away it then cos we had some poor results too, now it’s all there to see, I think his frustration is with the piss he’s managing, there’s definitely a good manager there and he got a tune out them for a while but I think couple that with some shocking stuff from Celtic and window of our own discontent and it made them look good, now he’s serving the same clueless stuff his 2 predecessors did, we still need to do the business so no celebrations yet but this is just coming together for us.

18 Apr 2024 12:44:42
Did he get a tune out of them for a while? I'm not so sure. Officials and VAR have carried them all season.

18 Apr 2024 16:08:02
They only have 1 gear like screaming away in car at the lights. You can shoot off but quickly the inability once you hit top speed to do anything else means you have to ease off the revs.

Us by comparison probably been chugging along in third and now we have slipped in to 4th and have heard still to go up. Sevco have now stalled as they don't even have reverse 🤣🤣🤣.

17 Apr 2024 22:11:27
Congratulations to the ladies who achieved top spot in the league. Might see if I'm permitted to take girls to game on Sunday. Elsewhere the smashed bottle was ground to dust.

18 Apr 2024 07:00:54
Both the men's and woman's team could win the league against sevco.

17 Apr 2024 19:49:04
any the lads on here have a tentbox for there car. looking for some info on them if there worth getting.

18 Apr 2024 07:02:24
I don't have one but I have seen them on camp sites. I spoke to a woman who used one for her and her daughter and she said they were good. Sorry, I couldn't be more help.

17 Apr 2024 18:52:05
Anybody looking for a ticket for Saturday?, I've got a spare for the East stand if anyone's interested.

18 Apr 2024 10:15:27
I’ll take it off your hands Stevie if you still have it.

18 Apr 2024 13:31:18
Still got it, it's a 30 quid ticket, where do you stay? I'm in Denny.

18 Apr 2024 16:18:20
I’m in Glasgow but I drive I can pick it up.

{Ed007's Note - If you both drop me an email at ed007@live.co.uk I'll get you in touch with each other no probs. McMillana has sent in his phone number Stevie so if you're fine with posting yours I'll pass them on.}

18 Apr 2024 16:49:28
Cheers mate.

{Ed007's Note - 👍👍

At this stage of the season we have just one game that isn't vital . This weekend struggle against Aberdeen is certainly a game I want us to win but I won't be heart broken if we lose it . The cup and especially a Cup league double is always very nice to win . This season and the position we find ourselves in at the split means that. winning the cup alone would almost be an anti - climate
Let us get behind our team in Hampden where we have in recent yrs, despite it been a truly awful National Stadium, have been very successful, and let's hope for a 2nd appearance this season in May. The SPL is number one, the Scott Cup is number two .

17 Apr 2024 14:26:47
Must win for me theyte a poor Aberdeen side . lose to them could halt momentum and let doubt creep in . also gives a potential party after title winning party.

17 Apr 2024 15:03:43
Celtic losing the Cup tie will put extra pressure on us to deliver the title because our rivals might then have the chance of a treble, if they qualify this weekend.

17 Apr 2024 16:03:28
Absolutely no way is the Scottish Cup less of a priority for me, and no way we should even be considering getting beat by this Aberdeen team who are just honking.
If we win the cup, either way it's better - either we win a league/ cup double or we stop them winning the treble, it's a no brainer!

17 Apr 2024 16:04:35
Must win for me just don't take it for granted.

17 Apr 2024 16:35:15
The title is by far more important than SC, I desperately want to win them both but the title this year is massive considering the riches at stake. If the title was to go elsewhere this season it could be a game changer, if it stays in Paradise the other mob will struggle to keep the lights on next season.

17 Apr 2024 16:56:02
We have struggled for a consistent string of wins for much of the season, mainly due to injuries to key players and a limited ability/ experience squad. Right now we are very close to a full strength team and decent bench who have in the majority been down this course before. BR needs to instill the belief and focus.

17 Apr 2024 18:27:33
A double means we would equal the amount of major honours won by both Ibrox clubs combined🤭.

17 Apr 2024 21:08:55
Bookies have Aberdeen to beat us than Hearts over them. Tells me bookies know they are easily parted from their cash. 🤣.

17 Apr 2024 22:42:13
Bookies tempting fools to part with money . Losing this yrs SPL would be the very worse sporting disaster I could imagine. Nothing not even losing to a v poor Aberdeen team could match it . I agree with many our team are in a good frame of mind and losing on Sat would destroy our momentum.
But Celtic are often used to heartbreak and I am sure BR could lift them for SPL
Hopefully we won’t need that, and we take care of Aberdeen and the final 5.

17 Apr 2024 12:29:43
Afternoon, I hope all the posters are well!

I wanted to ask if anyone is attending the Euros in the Summer to support the mighty Scotland?

I am heading to Germany on the 17th of June for around 5 days! I'll Be in Germany for the Scotland Vs Switzerland game.

Meeting up with fellow posters for a small orange juice would be good.

HH.

On this particular date April 17th,
Celtic lost twice to Sevco at Hampden in
2016 ( penalties) and 2022 (AET )

Celtic have won the other 22 Cup Semi Finals and Finals we've played since 2016.
One of those games was at Murrayfield.

Hampden has been like a second home to Celtic in recent years.

It wasn't a ground I liked years ago.
