We don`t belong in the last 16 that is obvious, but the "Men" didn`t beat the "Bhoys" did they Ince? I hope that Blackburn lose every game while he is in charge. Disrespectful twat. McDonald`s goal: Had Ronaldo scored that we would be hearing it as goal of the decade. Team defended well, with Wilson star man in defence for me. Stuck to the task very well. Brown played well too, but the fitness was the thing for me. They looked miles fitter. |

Hinkel,wilson,Caldwell and Mick were stand-outs all night. Midfield were great until they tired dramatically Mcdonald and Sheridan ran themselves into the ground We done well considering we were 5 first team regulars down and if ever we needed McGeady for an "out" ball then last night was it! Still, beat Aalborg,Villareal 2-0 and hope Man who beat villareal then we're through Easy PS - Displays from Fans last night were immense PPS - YES WE DO BELONG THERE, WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS!!

Dropped off the kids at school today and the janitor (Man Utd Fan) walks in out the playing field. Before I could speak " If I ever hear the Celtic Manager saying how proud he was of his team again... Absolutely disgusting! Defended all night... Celtic wouldn`t beat lower league English teams. Blackpool would beat them!" Cue laughter from me (not to his approval) and "Drew with the reigning CL EPL club": "Hull wouldn`t beat ICT!": " Only four teams in England" "We had no strike force and still scored!" This typifies Man U for me. Heads up erse with no dignity. The fact they didn`t beat us obviously made him mental. As for them wearing Celtic /Man U scarves, we should ban this. They will never be the people`s club. prawnsandwichtraffordbrigade Hopefully Arsenal/ Liverpool will gubb them in the league |

That's your and some ex Celts' opinions though. :thumbs.up: It is not fact. I never expected Porto to get near a CL final. Monaco either for that matter but both managed it four years ago. So you can't know what can happen, it is difficult with the disparity in resources but, as long as we are in it, I always believe there is a chance. WGS said before our CL campaign started that we have a better squad of players now to be in a better position to win away in the CL, well words to that effect. We've obviously still not won away but then he didn't say it was definite. Obviously home results, particularly v Aalborg haven't gone the way we would want but, mathematically, we are still in the competition so we still do have a chance. I can understand what WGS meant about the squad though. We are better equipped, he is right about that. We never make injuries an excuse but it does have an impact on your chances in games, it can be especially restrictive if you are trying to make changes in a game. As the Celtic site said last night, we went into that match decimated by injuries, we still competed and still very, very nearly beat them again. To even get a point in those circumstances was magnificant. Hopefully, by the time we play our next round of fixtures, we will have more/all of our injured players back and so have more options. The first thing we must do is beat Aalborg, that will guarantee us post Christmas European football. Then I certainly wouldn't bet against us at home. We have nothing to lose. If we lost/drew, we'd still have a UEFA cup place. If we go for it, we get a goal, we only need one, maybe two more in case we concede one but I can't see Villareal getting much change at our cauldron if they only managed a goal against us at home. We can do it and, if we do, we deserve to be there and, after what we did to the European Champions last night especially and with a decimated side, I would not bet against us whoever we draw in the last 16. ![]() HAIL HAIL |

I had a wee sneaky before the match Skippy might score. It wasn't really a goal though, it was a work of art. Don't! :angry: I hate that wee rodent with about the same venom as I hate that rat faced bastard Novo! :angry: Big pansy.

:rolleyes: And if he hadn't made us more defensive and they'd scored, you'd have been castigating him for not being defensive enough. :rolleyes: None of that team, and that includes WGS, shat it last night! |

Good point about Porto and Monaco, except for the fact that both are far superior teams than ours and Portugal and France are also able to cherrypick their former colonies at will. That helps a lot. The performance last night was outstanding. The effort the guys produced was amazing, however, effort will only take you so far and presently we are a CL group stage team. And Grouch is right and I said it earlier myself. Strachan shit himself with 15/20 minutes to go. He took off Sherridan. Fair enough he was knackered. However, bring on Hutchinson, instead of pushing Brown up front and most bizarrely Robson, who was majorly outclassed last night, to the awkward and unfamiliar right midfield position. :rolleyes: As soon as that happened, Ferguson smelt blood and immediately brought on Evra at left wing back to run the legs off Robson. He then took off Maloney and McDonald. Again, they were knackered fair enough, but Donati?!?!??!?!? Cannae get a game in the SPL, but I'll play him against Manure. Plus, he's shite. Push Brown into the middle, take off the clearly outclassed Robson and bring on Naka. Or better yet, fucking start Naka in the first place. :rolleyes: Strachan took off any attacking outlet we potentially had, which is what killed us. Every time we cleared the ball it came straight back to us and as anyone who has played the game will tell you, that is a fucking nightmare if you are playing in midfield or at the back. It is absolutely knackering. We started to crack and got pushed further and further on to the edge of our 6 yard box. As soon as Strachan made his changes, the equaliser was inevitable. You keep a presence up front and who knows? Also, I have to re-emphasize his decision not to play Nakamura, a player who is an expert at keeping possession of the ball, in a CL game like that, was lunacy. :rolleyes: :banghead: And his after match comments were a disgrace quite frankly. |

Well we have to break the hoodoo eventually. My only worry is that Aalborg seem to have more of a threat up front than ourselves presently. Knowing our luck it will be another shambolic away performance. :unsure: |

It wasn't really a goal though, it was a work of art.
