Celtic Diary Friday July 14: Here We Go

The 2017-18 season starts tonight with the first UCL qualifier against Linfield taking place in Belfast. Champions League games don;t normally take place on a Friday night, but as its the marching season over there, it seems the authorities couldn’t guarantee everybodys safety.

Thats a palusible enough excuse, but one does wonder what would have happened if the game had been played the day after sevral items of Celtic memorabilia -including effigies of supporters and players-were burnt in great big bonfires.

Although we kind of expected that, after all, they claim it is their culture, take a step outside and have a look back in.

A club has been forced to move the date of a game because authorities couldn’t guarantee their safety in a town where effigies and emblems were publicly burned.

Little wonder Celtic are not taking their ticket allocation, despite their being a large support in the city.

Get in, get a result, and get out.

Brendan Rodgers was diplomatic;

“This is a game that the football club haven’t been able to have assurances for their safety….which is sad for me. That is a problem for me. Celtic as a football club have to protect their supporters.”

Interestingly, the PSNI said that this was not their decision, but entirely the decision of Celtic..Celtic replied with two statements, both of which ended in “…Off. ”

Whatever the politics,and  whatever happens off the field, the job must be done on the field.

Scottish clubs have so far racked up one win, one draw and three defeats in these early games, and still no one is pushing for an earlier start to the season.

Apparently, the counter argument is that clubs will suffer in the later stages of tournaments.

Yeah. Because thats been an issue.

The problem right now is that clubs are out of Europe before the domestic season has started, largely down to a lack of match fitness.

Latter stages, and international tournaments , are something that used to concern us, but now now.

The disastrous adventures of St. Johnstone and “rangers ” will have further weakened the national co eficient, which means the vicious circle is growing ever more vicious.

Yet another failing of the men who run the game.

 

Anyhoo, back at the ranch ahead of the game, all seems well, with new signing Olivier Ntcham finding a pal almost instantly.

We would pause here to remind you that we told you he had signed before the media did, again, but one doesn’t like to blow ones own trumpet.

Oh, just once then..

Ntcham played alongside Moussa Dembele for France under 20, and seemed happy to rekindle an old friendship.

Though at that age I suppose anything longer than a couple of beers together could be classed as a long friendship.

Those of you not going to the game, no doubt a few will sneak in, and we’ll show you how in a moment, can watch on Premier sports, exclusively, as the home club have all tv rights for the game, and chose to seel them to a company that very few are subscribed to.

 

The rights for this match belong solely to Linfield & they sold their UK & Ireland rights to Premier Sports.

Those tv rights, incidentally, fetched a lot more than had the second leg been on Belfast, which is another reason why Linfield wouldn’t switch venues.

If you are going to try to get in, heres a visual aid to help you dress up.

Image result for evolution of man

Start from the right and work your way back. You’ll be sorted.

 

With a hostile crowd behind the hosts, the manager may be excused for fearing a repeat of the result of his first European tie, the infamous 1-0 defeat to Lincoln Red Imps in gibraltar, the game which saw the end of Efe Ambrose in a hooped jersey;

“The game in Gibraltar was interesting. It was my first chance to see the team in a competitive fixture,” 

“The conditions were tough and difficult – but there was also a vulnerability there in the team. You sensed that.

“It was my job as a coach to make sure that game was never going to be a symbol of our future.

“It was an opportunity for me to look at it and go ‘OK – there’s an issue here’. The club hadn’t qualified for the Champions League for a couple of seasons. So it was a question of how I could help the players deal with this pressure, the mental side of the game.

“I knew that tactically and technically, we would get better as we went on. Now, 12 months on, I think we would all agree it is a different team with a different mentality.”

I think we can safely say that.

“We have gone into some tough places as a team and I think what we have developed is a mentality and a one-ness that pulls you together,”

“If you go to Ibrox, in front of 50-odd thousand, with 40-odd thousand opponents against you, you have to be ready.” 

Each one of those just as good as the eleven facing the team on the park, as well.

Meanwhile, there’s been an interesting development on the transfer front, although it may come to nothing.

Steven Caulker, currently with QPR is going to leave the club, and he needs to kickstart what was a promising career, that has stalled due to drink, gambling and whatever else he’s been up to.

Rodgers revealed…

 “I spoke to Steven as a former manager. The kid messaged me. He has been suffering for the last period of time and he looked to me as someone who looked after him when he was 19 and I was only too happy to reach out and help. 

“We spoke at length about his life and his situation and just where he is at. He is a boy that if he can get it together and find a peace then he is an awesome talent.

“He is 6ft3ins, quick, strong, he can play. You would take him to war with you. He is unbelievable, both boxes, he is an incredible young footballer but he is suffering.

“Having had experience in trying to help him then I was only too happy to do that. At this stage there is nothing more than that.

“He is obviously a QPR player and I was only too happy to speak to him and help him try to shape his life.” 

so Is Brendan considering moving for him ?

 “Not at this stage. He is a boy that I have spoken to. It was only recently, the last few days. He is a big, talented player and he is only 25 but bless him, we’ll see with that. Initially it is a cry for help.

“I don’t think it is worth going there yet.” 

We’ll have to wait and see.

 

The SPFL have a new chairman, 68 year old Murdoch MacLennan.

No, i don;t know how he could possibly be deemed qualified for the job either.

You may remember him from the Andy coulson phone hacking trail, the one that finally saw the end of the News of the World.. court reporter James Doleman does..

The jury weren’t convinced by his heartfelt plea, and Coulson was found guilty.

And if you know a man by the company he keeps, may I be the first to say to MacLennan..

So with Stuart Armstrong. From how Brendan described Ntcham as a fast and powerful number 8 it looks as if he has been purchased to provide a challenge to Stuart Armstrong. Stuart must know this and is probably worried about a number of things, his Celtic spot, his Scotland spot and his big money move. He should really consider whether or not he likes to play football because there is considerably more pressure on a manager to make a big money move work, than there is on making a free work or a player who was purchased for a knocked down price. So unless Stuart is purchased for more than £10M it’s likely he will be seen as further down the pecking order. What do the rest of you think?

6 years ago

Remember Celtic had to agree to play on the Friday night! No one would have been able to force Celtic to paly on the Friday, Linfield asked Celtic to switch the tie to the Friday in order that they could make a ton of Tv cash and Celtic said ‘yes!’ Celtic actually have a game on the Saturday and decided they would just take cash from the supporters and play reserves in tht game. No one at Celtic has explained this decision clearly. Celtic could have said No to the Friday, and insisted that the game be switched to Celtic Park first, which the PSNI were leaning towards and UEFA would have insisted on. Celtic would have battered them on Wednesday making the second leg meaningless and no TV windfall for the sectarian Linfield. Celtic agreed to this and then immediately said it was too dangerous and they wouldn’t take any tickets. This is hypocrisy from Celtic. Too dangerous is too dangerous but Celtic seemed only to keen to ensure that Linfield win their league for years to come and I simply don’t understand why? What a situation when it is a close call as to who the biggest liars are, the people running Celtic or the PSNI. Celtic seem OK with the players playing in a hostile sectarian environment but less keen on their own ‘troublesome’ supporters being present.

Unless someone can present memos, recordings or some other evidence of what was said we are jumping to conclusions as to what was said. In that vein I will jump to the following conclusion. The PSNI and the Linfield board have probably colluded to create this scenario and I would not be surprised to find out in 10 – 15 years that Peter Lawell demanded some assurances which were never brought to the table.

The Board got it wrong again. Uralius’ cry of we don’t know what was said is wearing thin as a defense of the most reprehensible Board in our history over the past five years. Another Tim on another Blog said it better than I ever could.

BLUJULY 12, 2017 at 10:02 GoosyGoosy,If what you say is correct, fans/supporters should look at these people, who are the current directors of the SPFL, as recorded at Companies House.BLAIR, Iain Joseph BUDGE, Ann Cochrane Cook Wallace DEMPSTER, Leeann DONCASTER, Neil Antony DRYSDALE, Eric Wilson FERGUSON, Kenneth William LAWWELL, Peter Thomas MAXWELL, Ian Gardner MCCLUSKEY, Karyn TOPPING, Ralph JamiesonI’d reckon that most people would think that there’s some quality in that group, maybe some independent thinkers? However, if they collectively fail to see the need for transparency and evidence of being seen to have applied the League’s rules without fear or favour in respect its dealings with RFC 2012’s improper player registrations, the game’s screwed.
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
IMO
Unfortunately the game is screwed and has been for decades
How many individuals on the SPFL Board are noted for putting integrity above commercial interest?
Believe Me
If they were people of outstanding integrity it would be well known by now. Their reputation would have gone before them.for a start They would not have joined or remained on a board that employed Neil Doncaster as CEO
Integrity is not a personal trait that sits well with commercialism. Its one of those pesky moral values that keep interfering with making money. It fights its corner in every big decision where the commercial brain is suggesting you act dishonestly and tell lies.
Integrity cannot ever yield to dishonest compromises. If it does the respect it once earned has gone forever. My business experience suggests that integrity at Director level is nowhere near as common as you might expect.Integrity seems to reside mostly in individuals who are considered bolshi for raising moral questions during commercial discussions. Paradoxically, these people also tend to have progressed their careers by earning respect for difficult and often unpopular decisions.
5 years have gone by since we last heard the voice of integrity in Scottish football.
Turnbull Hutton(rip) enjoyed a long and successful business career without compromising his integrity.He was just as outspoken then as he was at Raith Rovers. He made a lot of difficult and sometimes unpopular decisions. But he did it with respect for the people most affected.
When he spoke up against the Armageddon lies and arm twisting by the SFA he knew he would get little public support from other club Chairmen.He was right. I don`t recall any other club Chairman backing him in public.
Football club Directors with genuine integrity live lonely lives.They are avoided by those who can

I won’t predict the scoreline, but here’s my alternative predictions:

Leigh Griffiths – 5 (Tunnocks Teacakes)
Scott Sinclair – 3 (episodes of Corrie, with his missus in each episode)
Stuart Armstrong – 1 (law degree)

Celtic will be playing with just 10 men – Craig Gordon will be given the night off, while his team-mates batter this lot senseless!

“The problem right now is that clubs are out of Europe before the domestic season has started, largely down to a lack of match fitness.”

St Johnstone’a manager said they lost because the other team were better, the rangers* lost because they are technically shite, and Aberdeen are only still in because they technically have Celtic’s youth team.

Starting the season early may help some of the professionals avoid some banana skins, but until this technical deficiency is resolved we’re just gonna keep picking the biggest lumps at 14 and 15 and ignore all our wee Messi’s and Xavi’s and all the summer football in the world ain’t gonna fix that.

i think the problem is the other way round….most of our players are not that tall or physically strong…..look at all the top teams, most players are 6ft while in Scotland we are around 5ft8″.
just look at the players Brendan is signing all big and powerful.
i agree the great players have been shorter but they are far and few between now and cost massive money.

Doncaster’s appointment of Murdoch MacLennan as chairman of the SPFL, taking over from Ralph Topping on the first of august is another seemingly HUN appointment.

The board have been “surprised” a lot lately, first by the “no sporting advantage” claims and now by the PSNI statement. On the latter I presume PSNI said we can’t guarantee safety, and the board said we won’t take tickets. So everybody’s right. But the board notes the timing is odd, seems like an attempt by PSNI to cover their posteriors if anything goes wrong with fans in the ground whom they have said they will remove. So don’t wear colours and just support the better team on the night as a “neutral”!!
