SEE YOU! A brand spanking new modern fitba thread 2021/22

Why are they trying to manufacture a crisis out of the Liverpool game yesterday?

 

Why can Celtic not go a week of games without ~3 first team players getting seriously injured

 

Irish have you ever read into the 1966 Cup winners Cup semi final? Celtic won the home leg 1-0 then Liverpool were 2-0 up at Anfield when Bobby Lennox scored a CLEARLY LEGITIMATE goal in the last minute to send Celtic through to the final....or so the 15,000 travelling supporters thought before seeing that it had been chalked offside by some perfidious sasanach bastard. A completely justifiable and legitimate expression of frustration culminated in a wee riot, mainly conducted by means of artilary fire. After the match Shankley joked to Stein: 'do you want your share of the gate reciepts or will we just return the empties?'

 

Maybe it was the same official who refed the 66 WC final. Only this time around decided to reverse course and allow illegitimate goals.

 

Never heard tell of it not because it hasn't been discussed or admitted but rather because the fixation is inevitably on the 68 European Cup semi final vs Inter, which totally totally stank.

 

Celtic or Liverpool? You mean 72?

 

Liverpool vs Inter, 2nd leg, in fact it was 1965, in Italy. Utter robbery.

 

Just watching Cameroon vs Comoros hee, Comoros have had their goalkeeper sent off so they put their left back in goals as they've no substitute keeper because he's got covid.

The left back/keepers been pulling off all these mad exaggerated saves and he's kept the score at 1-0

 

Greatest free kick of are times

 

Another fan collapses at the Burn vs Boro game. Play stopped.

 

Season defining week for ra Sellik. If we win these next three games im certain we're champs, if we have a bad week its over.

 

I'm hearing that Boris had a drink.. On his Birthday.

Not on. Just not on..

 

RIP Wim the Tim, the man who stopped the ten. :(

 

F'n hell imagine him on stimulants.

 

true

 

Former Celtic manager Jansen dies at 75

 

Some day, really was

 

Oooooh

Obagmfemi was jussssssst offside there.

Aaaaaand the field is on fire now

 

I had a fat old maths teacher called Gerry Duffy who spent most of 1997 telling our class of dullards that Celtic HAD to win it in 1998, just had to. That was my final year in school, fat Donegal Duffy telling us that 1998 had to be the year.

 

Fuck me Slice that was a fairly gash game. The Hoops didn't show me much tonight bar that hitting the post.

 

It felt like the gatekeeper might meet the keymaster in the centre circle that year. People would openly cry in the stands and stuff, bless themselves on their knees without irony and it all seemed normal....you really had to have been there

 

We were fucking lactose-intolerant shit on a packed bus mate. Utter wank, I'll take a point, but that was a statement-game and we fucked it.

 

We will make the playoffs I think, but we had a real chance to go for automatic here at home and I hate to say it, but we fucking bottled that shit.

 

I didn't really count one QPR chance after matey hit the post.

But can you complain? You've got 12 goals in the last 15 minutes, only Fulham did better.

I like QPR, I like Loftus Road, I like the IDEA OF QPR if that makes sense.

 

I think Ian Wright might reconsider why so many of us are so fucked off with the AFCON.

Its not fucking bigotry.

If the prem was on a winter furlough I'd be watching the Afcon, as it is I've caught a few games already.

 

Na I can't complain at all to be honest bro, we've had more than our rub of the green these past few games and I was expecting the luck to run out at some point, maybe not at THIS point, but at some point. It's all good, a point is better than nothing and we still have a shot at automatic promotion, though I have to be honest I can't see it happening right now. I'm very confident we will make the playoffs, and we have a good record in them.

 

I was watching a 60s game of your boys, @Hut*Hut.

That Jimmy Johnstone was quite a player. Tremendous close control.

 

Aye, he was one of the best. Di Stafano reportedly insisted on inviting Celtic to his testimonial due to his admiration for Johnstone - im guessing he enjoyed Jinkys run to set up the goal ~3.50 in
