Someone Was Going To Get It……
Posted by: | CommentsGood Three Points With Good Goals!
What it is with Celtic? We had twenty-seven shots at St Johnstone’s goal yesterday and scored with three of the hardest!
MAF’s first strike was stunning, Sammy’s volley was sublime and Paddy McCourt’s dribble and shot was easily a contender for goal of the season.(you can see what it means to Paddy below)
I said before the game that a good result could turn our season around and maybe it will. Of course we have to continue this kind of form against Hibs on Wednesday for there to be real hope of a comeback.
With players returning to training this week Tony just might have a couple of selection headaches ahead of the midweek fixture.
No doubt Mogga will deal with them, just as he dealt with David Tanner after the game, as he let the media know on Sky Sports what he thinks of their credentials for picking a player.
Nice one Tony.
Paddy Shows What It Means To Play For Celtic!
“He Will Build On This Goal To Help Us Win The Title.”
Posted by: | CommentsMurderwell 2 Celtic 3. Tony’s Post Match Prediction….
Now this is just what we want to hear! At last you can sense that Celtic are a team capable of overcoming adversity with the type of football we all want to see.
After taking the lead through big Sammy, who had another great game, we fell asleep to let Murderwell back into the game. Both goals we conceded were easily preventable and only better concentration will put a stop to these defensive lapses.
However, if anyone questioned the character of the side, then the Bhoys came up trumps today.
First Aiden scored a sublime equaliser, then as if it was written in a script, out of luck Marc-Antoine Fortune came on as sub and rifled a screamer into the Murderwell net to make it 3-2 to Celtic.
Three well deserved points that could have been a bit more comfortable had Barry Robson not missed a penalty at 2-2, our third miss in recent weeks.
As Tony says, this could be a game that goes a long way to deciding the destination of the title!
Good Luck Aiden, Good Luck Sammy!
Posted by: | CommentsWorld Cup Target For Duo
Tonight two of our Bhoys Aiden McGeady and Georgios Samaras will have a final throw of the dice to get themselves and their respective countries to the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
Aiden goes to Paris with the Republic of Ireland to overturn a 1-0 deficit and Sammy heads to the Ukraine in the hope of Greece nicking a victory or even a score draw to take the Greeks through.
Making it to the World Cup will hopefully give the players just the boost they both need to kick start their club season and push Celtic on to another title.
We could do with a boost after the Chuckle Brothers’ display at the weekend for Scotland!
Oh! Danny Bhoy…..
Posted by: | CommentsDanny Fox It Up At Paradise
No doubt most of the headlines will centre on the Greek Tragedy that is Georgios Samaras after his series of misses against the wee Huns tonight.
But for me, the man who Mogga told us could put a pass on a tanner, couldn’t get the ball to Landry N’Guemo five yards away from him in the lead up to the Swinecastle outfits penalty.
Of course Danny was caught out of position, not for the first time, and brought down Nade to allow referee Craig Thomson the opportunity of awarding a penalty. A stonewaller? Yip. Just like the two he failed to give FOR Celtic at Legoland last month.
Unfortunately for us The Holy Goalie 2 dived over the penalty kick and the wee Huns held out for a 1-0 win.
And to round things off Mick was sent packing in time added on for a ridiculous tackle on Driver that could have ended the players career.
Initially refereeThomson only yellow carded him, the over zealous assistant put in his tuppence worth to get Mick off. If it was for being the last man, then he got it wrong, as Caldwell and Hinkel were both goal side.
I could go on but the life is draining out of me as I post this……..
But lets look on the positive side of things. At least when we wake up tomorrow we’re not Huns!
