Hail, Hail, Celtic are really Irish and everyone shouls support them above eL teams!
(don't really mean it but just thought that I'd see if I can get the thread to 50pages)
An A*se, if you had a higher calibre of intelligence I would have made a better effort. :rolleyes: Why do I think your intelligence is greatly challenged? Because you - and the rest of the Leeside planky gang - have nothing, BUT NOTHING, to say except sh*te, although quick to go running to dahamsta and get myself and Mr. O'Banton banned for a week if we start rising to your insults. Perhaps, when your cojones have dropped things will be different and you can come back and prove me wrong with some sort of coherent argument. Until then (YAWN) you're little more than an irritating itch on my sphincter. :cool:Quote:

Lopez, ....... see what you can do when you try !! :D
Ten points for effort, someone give him a biscuit :)
Listen mate .... while i do at times enjoy your ramblings, i dont go running anyway about them. You are well able to get banned on your own, you dont my help at all, just wanted to set you straight on that point.Quote:

Oh deary me!! Sell-thick the Muppet butts in on this thread aiming to wind people up and what happens? It looks like he's getting all wound up himself. Must of hit a sore spot! F*cking brilliant! You've made my Sunday, an A*se. :DQuote:

Thats what we should avoid. That is all i am saying.' Now Sell-thick, that doesn't sound like positive support for a Shels victory. It sounds like it would be better for Irish football that Shels (or any EL side except your own) failed to make it into the Champions League group stages. In other words, the league is better sh*te, the consequence being that much of the footballing following population will follow the foreign teams you claim to abhor. But then this is just my view: I'll let the rest of the posters on this thread make their own mind up on whether I was taking you out of context...or not!Quote:

It doesn't matter what the rest of the posters make of it, cos i see that you have already altered it to suit yourself. "In other words ..." ....... Ahm NO, not in any other words at all, not matter what way you arrange them. The point i am trying to make is (again) "My argument is that it is not good for the league to have one team pull away from the pack and dominate for the next 10-20 years. It would be like watching SPL .... Shíte ..... Thats what we should avoid." .... that is what i am saying. !!Quote:

They can take whatever the fúck they want really ... makes no odds to me :)Quote:

Did we really see Sell-Thick shown up to be an ordinary team last night v Barca or is it only a hic-up for them ??

bhoys are missing larson big time
They're ordinary, and that will continue to be shown in the champions league, especially away from home where the crowd and 'fighting spirit' won't be worth a damn to them.
Ordinary teams spend £1.5 million or so pre-season, great teams spend buckets. Until O'Neills purse strings are loosened, then it'll be the same old same old...
Outclassed totally. £45m spent by Barca in the summer showed the difference between the 2 clubs.
I thought we'd a chance of nicking it during a 20 minute period of pressure before and after our goal but if that had happened then it would have been stolen.
No complaints, ability beats passion 9 times out of 10 and I thought we'd get a hiding when I saw them keep the ball from us for the first 5 minutes and when we did get it, the first thing we did was hump it up the park and give it straight back to them :confused: . Never really understood that logic myself :rolleyes:
Unfortunately I think we'll get a few more comprehensive beatings in this group.
Well, there'll always been crowing in some quarters, whenever Celtic lose a high profile match like this.
It was a really strange evening all round. The whole Henrik thing was really bizarre, almost surreal to see Jebus-made-flesh himself potting it in the net... :( and then not celebrating in the usual manner. :( It wasn't the best of games, to be fair. I thought they were on top for a while, but the it-all-goes-titsup-fairy sprinkled her magic dust and it fell apart.
But to answer the original question, no, they're far, far from ordinary.
Define ordinary. Well capable of progressing from the group stage, unfortunately not this group. Barca are a very good side and will probably get better with time. AC may well do a job on Celtic as well.
However they have shown in the past that they are capable of beating some very good teams probably will do so again.
Certainly as well Celtic did have an off night (all three goals were down to defensive mistakes) however were comperhensively outplayed. Restricted by their (and Rangers) success in Scotland big tv companies will not touch them, they will unable to attract players to narrow the gap in Europe. This isn't a bealt by the way I know that the smaller clubs in Scotland have similar grievances against Celtic and Rangers. Simply stating facts.
Prob at monent a second tier European side.
Celtic, truely an awful joke, as my Dad said, small time players in a big club. When will Martin O'Neill wake up and jump ship, there is no more he can do with the club.
Before anybody makes scathing remarks, I have no interest in the 32 Counties aspect of Celtic, ie. The Celtic "fans" at Turners Cross a couple years ago.
a face,will be distraught today ;)
And what exactly makes them an awful joke?? :confused:Quote:

Neil Lennon? While I'm not a huge fan, the facts are fairly simple......he's got a better pass completion rate than most midfielders in the Champions League (opto stats) which basically means he doesn't give the ball away, which basically means if the opposition don't have the ball then they can't score (no smart comments about how it hasn't worked so far!!). Carlo Ancellotti pointed out before the Milan game that Lennon was the player he most admired in the Celtic team and that in his opinion, every team needed someone like him.
