You don't like Polish people then? Anyway, of course you would. Celtic fans idolise Boruc and have a great laugh with him during games. You're an incredibly biased man I must say.

You're just really biased towards Hibs and it affects your judgement a lot imo.
Of course Boruc had a nightmare. I started this by replying to the "childish arrogant gimp" comment.
As for the Polish comment, could it be more obvious?
Firstly, everyone is bias towards the club they support, FACT
Secondly, if someone was to poke fun at John O'Shea and Ian Harte for having very similar nightmare performances. Would you take it that that person is saying they don't like Irish people?? Very strange logic you have
About time Hibs profited from a goalkeeping error!
Delighted for Shiels when he scored the winner, almost equally as delighted for that pr!k Caldwell.
I had written a pre match post yesterday writing off Celtic in the CL and writing off Strachans chances to get his team Celtic mk3 going
I see there is a bit more to the 2 Scotts than was evident in the other CL games.
Last night was good though Milan were powder puff and only played when they had to and when they did play, the 4 or 5 one touch football was different class.
Jarosik surprised, wasn't bad at all considering his absence, plenty of mistakes but was willing all night, a Killer Kilbanish type performance.
Our lad McGeady looked like he was starting where he left off against the Czechs (against the same full back?). But he is more sure of himself in Celtic's team than ours, he is better supported by those around him. Cut inside a bit more, lost the ball a lot less, covered better and coulda scored one.
Nakamura is more than essential, vision and skill.
an accurate enough description imo.
however i still think that Celtic are seriously weak up front and even though McDonald scored I thought he had a poor enough game. Nailor and Doumbe had decent games troo and I reckon Scott Brown was immense in the first half, well up until he got booked anyway.
Milan can be top drawer when they want to be and it is a pity they are 'ageing' as their skill is only produced when it is needed whereas a younger team would be able to maintain that level for a good proportion of the game.
Overall a good night for Celtic on the pitch.
I actually thought McDonald played well. He really did trouble Bonera and Nesta. His first touch is superb, the ball just sticks to him.
Celtic's reserves beat Rangers today. They might have some useful players worthy of taking the step up to the senior team come the next window.
Had the misfortune to watch the Gretna v Celtic game yesterday. Jeez it was grim. The only thing that helped me through it was the few beers that I indulged in.
Nobody can knock Strachans record but this team quite regularly produce absolute dross. That's the main reason why fans are still split 50/50 when it comes to him.

I think any fan that wants to see Celtic play good football will be fully behind Strachan. There'll always be a few dodgy performances away from home. I don't know how Gretna did it yesterday. It was like they had 2 or 3 players on whichever Celtic player had the ball. They didn't give them a second. Donati certainly wouldn't be used to that. You're allowed all the time in the world in Italy if you're at least 40 yards away from the goal.
Any team playing a big side will always be "up for it". That's not the issue and it certainly wasn't a case of Gretna running around like blue arse flies. They worked hard but it was to be expected. The problem was that Celtic were sluggish and went through the motions.
I watched in the local supporters bar and the vast majority there were commenting about how regular this sort of performance was becoming. You'll know more than me eirebhoy when it comes to performances as I hardly see any games anymore but that was the general consensus anyway.

Maybe the fact the ball wasn't round didn't help the players

In the last year they've more often than not played poorly away from home. Most of the time at home though they're a joy to watch. The likes of Naka, Donati, Brown and McGeady get so much more space at home. I don't know the reason. Many Irish fans only get to see the odd home game so I can understand them thinking the football under Strachan isn't great. His first season we played well 70% of the time. Last season it was more like 30-40% of the time. This season is back up there. The last few away performances have been poor but other than that it's been great to watch this season.

Hardly the IB??? Never liked watching games in there if so. Fellas opinions in pubs! If they knew so much why weren't they at the game, bus leaves from outside, heaps of tickets, only down the road.....
I'm getting wound up.
I'm with eirebhoy on this one, the football is coming back this season under strachan, and most fans (bar the totally anti brigade no matter what he does) are wising up to it.

On the contrary, most of them were season ticket holders. Not everyone goes to the away games and this is a supporters club that is based 2 hours away from Glasgow.
I wouldn't have them down as a moan and groan brigade either, in fact a lot of them I would class as knowledgable and reasonable. Just saying that they aren't exactly thrilled with the way the team has been playing.
