Only Irish at Celtic is Stokes but he is not even on the bench, nevertheless looks like a good result for Celtic if Barca do not score in the last 7 minutes or so.

**pineapple stu** · 23/10/2012, 8:42 PM

Always the case

Seems like Celtic struggle to see out a game with out any Irish in the side.

I don't say this lightly but this is the worst tricky_colour thread yet.

Because a lot of Irish fans follow Celtic so I expected there would-be a lot of interest, and judging from the number of replies I was right.

Tricky, you deserve a swift kick in the b******s for this thread.

**tricky_colour** · 23/10/2012, 8:57 PM

So my thread has an interest level of 8/9 or a staggering 88% yet the other thread only generate a response rate of 1/52 or 1.9%

**boovidge** · 23/10/2012, 9:05 PM

Yeah but that's because everyone's thinking "wtf is this doing in the Ireland section" and clicking out of curiosity. Textbook, if very lazy, wumming.

**tetsujin1979** · 23/10/2012, 9:34 PM

starting a thread in the international section about a game in the Champions League between two non-Irish clubs (albeit with Irish links in their history), with zero Irish players involved is pointless, but I am more concerned with the spelling of Barcelona.

I think you are forgetting how bad some of my other threads were.

**paul_oshea** · 23/10/2012, 9:49 PM

although it wasnt his intention im sure, but from spanish pronounciation I can understand the spelling like that.

**Supreme feet** · 23/10/2012, 10:34 PM

I thought the relevance of this thread would be that if Celtic, with their personnel of clumsy Championship-level journeymen, could put up such resistance against Barca, what excuse do we have for our performances of late, against similar opposition?

Anyway, to the Rubbish section with this thread.

**tricky_colour** · 23/10/2012, 11:12 PM

That's a good point, Celtic have proved a team full of less than perfect players can compete at the very highest level,
and we should not fall into the Trap of thinking we can't either,

**Charlie Darwin** · 23/10/2012, 11:21 PM

Look at their possession stats. They rode their luck every bit as much as we have against top teams. Forster was their Richard Dunne tonight, except it wasn't enough to keep a clean sheet.

**nigel-harps1954** · 24/10/2012, 12:04 AM

Delighted for Celtic tonight. Got exactly what was coming to them.

**CraftyToePoke** · 24/10/2012, 1:18 AM

This thread is a shocker, even by the Tricky standards and it hit a new low when Supreme Feet tried to tenuously give it relevance only for its creator to only then realise that aspect.
