    What are the chances he won't win the league, though? Whatever about Saturday's result, Celtic have the squad depth other sides can't dream of. Dundee United and St Johnstone look good in one-off games but they'll have days where their squad is found wanting, which should be enough to see Celtic through. And even if Rangers get promoted the next year, they'll still be **** once McCoist is in charge.

    They should win the SPL, more so on merit hopefully.
    Not really a factor re.the Zombies, as more likelihood of them going bust again or even not being promoted...more about Desmond spending some of Celtic's transfer profits and allowing a bit of scope to speculate generally to build for the future, but quite hard when you lose your best players every other season, at most.

    With spending money though, was it the club who were unearthing players like Wanyama or was it Lennon's people? If the latter, you might end up just spending the money on dross, or getting in crap Norwegians from Cardiff.

    I thought it was pretty funny. I think it was meant in a lighter heart than people are taking it.

    edit: but really, the better team did win

    Not a question of prices, just about getting value for money, which if you keeping buying cheap/taking loans, isn't happening.

    And what LW and their fascist fans forgot to say, is their lawyers lost...

    Well, ignoring my opinion on Legia, I was asking if the club's transfer policy, unearthing players like Wanyama, Forster, Van Dijk, even Kayal and Bitar for the future, is that something the club did or was it Lennon's staff finding these players and turning them into big profit for the club?

    Bit harsh. Took Stromsgodset from being a newly promoted Norwegian side to being league champions for the first time in 40+ years. Wasn't a fluke either; they'd been runners-up the previous year. Seems exactly the kind of manager a club like Celtic would be justified in taking a risk on.

    Some of his comments are downright weird, granted. Talking about the Europa League being their level two years after getting through the group stages is at best something lost in translation; at worst naive and clueless. I think he's had other weird comments too.

    Maybe if Legia spent more time learning how to fill in simple forms, instead of trying to look cool on twitter they would have being playing last night.

    Talking about the Europa League being their level four weeks after claiming they shouldn't have to go through Champions League qualification at all is more bizarre.

    Are they sure to be seeded in whichever of the competitions they make next year?

    Their club seeding is still pretty high so they'll probably be seeded through the qualifiers of whatever competition they're competing in, but Scotland's low ranking means they'll probably be in from the early qualifiers.

    Unless there's a major change in attitude or personnel, it'll be irrelevant anyway.

    Napoli have just disintegrated in Bilbao. They had been dominated all game but found themselves 2-1 up on aggregate just after half time but three quick goals, coming from three defensive mistakes, have killed them. They play some awful ****e to be fair, Athletic a much better team and more deserving.

    Penalties about to kick off in Ludogorets-Steau. The Ludogorets keeper was sent off moments before the end and they'd used all subs.

    That is a mental story altogether.

    They're gonna have a problem now staging games in the group stages. The national stadium where they are playing their games is not Cat-4.
    DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?
