00:14:13.914 --> 00:14:15.777 So we're not in Europe next season. 00:14:16.677 --> 00:14:17.856 um so they're going to we're 00:14:17.897 --> 00:14:19.097 starting from scratch again 00:14:19.118 --> 00:14:21.177 essentially um are the club 00:14:21.197 --> 00:14:22.158 going to support them to 00:14:22.177 --> 00:14:23.438 this time make sure it's 00:14:23.479 --> 00:14:24.519 going to be sustainable 00:14:25.418 --> 00:14:26.759 time will tell and I also 00:14:26.818 --> 00:14:28.620 felt sorry desi just and 00:14:28.980 --> 00:14:30.539 this is just just my view 00:14:31.139 --> 00:14:33.480 and you can listen to some 00:14:33.520 --> 00:14:34.600 of the feedback for some of 00:14:34.620 --> 00:14:36.902 the the fans as well and I 00:14:36.922 --> 00:14:38.182 know that the celtic 00:14:38.261 --> 00:14:39.201 coaches took about a 00:14:39.261 --> 00:14:40.602 criticism so I'm I'm not 00:14:40.623 --> 00:14:41.883 like you're at the games 00:14:41.903 --> 00:14:42.702 you're amongst everything 00:14:43.062 --> 00:14:45.303 but somebody's sitting back a wee bit um 00:14:45.964 --> 00:14:47.144 I actually feel for her a 00:14:47.164 --> 00:14:49.806 bit because when she came in for Fran, 00:14:49.826 --> 00:14:50.586 Fran had this big 00:14:50.605 --> 00:14:51.447 personality didn't they? 00:14:51.866 --> 00:14:53.307 He would wind people up as well, 00:14:53.327 --> 00:14:53.888 opposition, 00:14:53.927 --> 00:14:54.869 he would wind up constantly 00:14:54.889 --> 00:14:57.169 but he had this energy about him, right? 00:14:57.210 --> 00:14:58.471 But he left mid-season, 00:14:58.691 --> 00:15:00.511 she came in and she got the 00:15:00.552 --> 00:15:01.951 title done when she came in 00:15:02.373 --> 00:15:03.613 and I just think she's got 00:15:03.692 --> 00:15:05.214 a very different personality, 00:15:05.433 --> 00:15:06.534 nobody has the same as Fran, 00:15:06.595 --> 00:15:08.615 totally opposite, polar opposite, right? 00:15:09.235 --> 00:15:11.580 But she seems very focused and like that. 00:15:12.120 --> 00:15:12.881 But he was the opposite. 00:15:12.902 --> 00:15:13.543 He was a bullion. 00:15:14.004 --> 00:15:15.506 And I just think... I felt 00:15:15.527 --> 00:15:16.028 for her because... 00:15:17.221 --> 00:15:19.403 I think she just needs back 00:15:19.423 --> 00:15:21.163 to give her a chance with her players, 00:15:21.644 --> 00:15:22.565 right? 00:15:22.585 --> 00:15:23.605 Absolutely merits criticism 00:15:23.625 --> 00:15:24.446 at times this season, 00:15:24.466 --> 00:15:25.806 but let's go back to the Champions League, 00:15:25.846 --> 00:15:27.167 getting there, winning the league, 00:15:27.567 --> 00:15:29.427 getting there, no batting, 00:15:29.807 --> 00:15:30.828 players blowing fumes. 00:15:31.328 --> 00:15:32.929 I just think that she merits 00:15:33.029 --> 00:15:34.791 getting support next season. 00:15:34.990 --> 00:15:36.731 If it doesn't work at that point for me, 00:15:36.751 --> 00:15:37.152 fair enough, 00:15:37.172 --> 00:15:38.633 but I think she deserves an 00:15:38.653 --> 00:15:39.793 opportunity to have a go 00:15:39.813 --> 00:15:40.453 with her own players. 00:15:41.716 --> 00:15:42.436 It's that thing we were 00:15:42.476 --> 00:15:43.236 talking about before, 00:15:43.256 --> 00:15:44.798 when you go to a game and 00:15:45.080 --> 00:15:46.140 to be honest a lot of the 00:15:46.160 --> 00:15:47.162 football has been pretty 00:15:47.261 --> 00:15:50.405 awful and you think how can 00:15:50.446 --> 00:15:52.187 she survive this because 00:15:52.207 --> 00:15:54.429 you can't see necessarily 00:15:54.570 --> 00:15:56.211 what the partner play is or 00:15:56.272 --> 00:15:58.235 what the actual strategy is, 00:15:58.514 --> 00:16:00.616 you just don't have the players to do it. 00:16:02.298 --> 00:16:03.120 Is it coaching? 00:16:03.620 --> 00:16:05.160 Is it just a pure lack of 00:16:05.341 --> 00:16:06.383 investment from the club? 00:16:06.403 --> 00:16:08.024 So there's all these factors. 00:16:08.764 --> 00:16:09.745 And then there's the element 00:16:09.764 --> 00:16:11.307 where she even talked about herself, 00:16:11.346 --> 00:16:11.547 where 00:16:12.076 --> 00:16:13.395 She felt that most of the 00:16:13.416 --> 00:16:14.336 year she's been doing a 00:16:14.376 --> 00:16:15.476 manager's job rather than 00:16:15.496 --> 00:16:16.976 what she was engaged to do, 00:16:17.136 --> 00:16:18.038 a coaching job. 00:16:18.697 --> 00:16:20.138 And I think she's learned a 00:16:20.158 --> 00:16:21.437 lot from this season where 00:16:22.019 --> 00:16:23.298 she's going to try and 00:16:23.339 --> 00:16:24.719 focus on what her job is 00:16:24.759 --> 00:16:26.980 and not worry about all the rest of it. 00:16:27.039 --> 00:16:29.580 So from my point of view, 00:16:31.100 --> 00:16:32.321 I really struggled with 00:16:32.360 --> 00:16:33.600 some of the football this year, 00:16:33.941 --> 00:16:35.562 but I'm willing to give her 00:16:35.601 --> 00:16:36.322 another chance. 00:16:36.861 --> 00:16:38.722 But she can't be hung out to dry. 00:16:38.863 --> 00:16:39.822 She needs the support. 00:16:40.602 --> 00:16:41.582 And you've got to remember, 00:16:41.623 --> 00:16:43.464 she is only thirty, thirty-one, 00:16:43.724 --> 00:16:44.504 a young coach. 00:16:45.043 --> 00:16:46.524 That was her first full season. 00:16:47.705 --> 00:16:49.566 And if you can learn from it 00:16:49.686 --> 00:16:51.105 and we can do better next season, 00:16:51.145 --> 00:16:52.106 then we've won a watch. 00:16:52.866 --> 00:16:53.927 If not, you know, 00:16:54.366 --> 00:16:55.628 does it set us back another 00:16:55.648 --> 00:16:56.388 two or three years? 00:16:56.447 --> 00:16:58.989 I don't know. 00:16:59.048 --> 00:17:03.769 Yeah, I thought it was very much. 00:17:03.809 --> 00:17:04.950 I was listening to the game. 00:17:04.970 --> 00:17:06.090 Sorry. 00:17:06.451 --> 00:17:07.570 Just one point I thought was 00:17:07.590 --> 00:17:08.291 really interesting. 00:17:08.751 --> 00:17:09.352 That whole 00:17:10.013 --> 00:17:11.815 competitiveness of the women's league, 00:17:12.255 --> 00:17:13.315 the fact that that's four 00:17:13.355 --> 00:17:15.056 different winners in the last four years. 00:17:15.336 --> 00:17:15.556 I mean, 00:17:15.576 --> 00:17:16.797 that's the sort of competitive 00:17:16.836 --> 00:17:17.836 league you're looking to. 00:17:18.458 --> 00:17:20.137 That's what gets people interested. 00:17:20.198 --> 00:17:21.338 No runaway leagues. 00:17:21.378 --> 00:17:22.338 I know we love winning the 00:17:22.358 --> 00:17:22.798 leagues and all that, 00:17:22.838 --> 00:17:24.460 but from a media point of 00:17:24.500 --> 00:17:26.560 view and a competition point of view, 00:17:26.580 --> 00:17:28.182 you'd think they would be 00:17:28.281 --> 00:17:30.102 latching on to this and the 00:17:30.142 --> 00:17:31.403 club would be latching on to this. 00:17:31.423 --> 00:17:32.282 There's something to spur 00:17:32.323 --> 00:17:35.345 the imagination to get people's edge up, 00:17:35.384 --> 00:17:37.404 but I think they've just 00:17:37.424 --> 00:17:38.365 taken their eye off the ball. 00:17:38.887 --> 00:17:39.807 There's leagues around 00:17:39.928 --> 00:17:41.449 Europe are actually talking 00:17:41.489 --> 00:17:44.250 to us and the SWPL and 00:17:44.431 --> 00:17:45.891 asking them about this 00:17:45.931 --> 00:17:46.912 because they can see it, 00:17:47.011 --> 00:17:48.712 that every year it's so 00:17:48.752 --> 00:17:51.513 exciting because of how the split works. 00:17:53.335 --> 00:17:54.734 The split with the men's game, you know, 00:17:54.775 --> 00:17:55.675 you're still going to have 00:17:55.935 --> 00:17:57.977 Celtic are going to be there, you know, 00:17:58.136 --> 00:17:59.217 Sevco in the background. 00:17:59.657 --> 00:18:00.698 You're not really going to 00:18:00.738 --> 00:18:02.519 get where we are yet. 00:18:03.020 --> 00:18:04.541 you know, we should be winning the league. 00:18:04.582 --> 00:18:06.683 But with a women's game, 00:18:06.703 --> 00:18:07.944 it is really exciting 00:18:07.964 --> 00:18:09.346 because you've got people that are all, 00:18:09.685 --> 00:18:11.126 yeah, some teams have got more money, 00:18:11.166 --> 00:18:12.627 but you've got four or five 00:18:12.667 --> 00:18:14.369 teams that are very competitive. 00:18:14.950 --> 00:18:15.470 And it just, 00:18:15.589 --> 00:18:17.251 it's so exciting going to 00:18:17.271 --> 00:18:18.172 these games because it 00:18:18.231 --> 00:18:19.373 changes every week. 00:18:19.814 --> 00:18:20.794 I mean, at one point, 00:18:21.295 --> 00:18:22.496 we had about six games to go. 00:18:22.516 --> 00:18:24.817 I think all four teams were 00:18:24.856 --> 00:18:25.718 on the same points. 00:18:26.117 --> 00:18:26.979 It was mental. 00:18:27.578 --> 00:18:28.240 Great stuff. 00:18:29.000 --> 00:18:30.461 But that's what we should be selling. 00:18:30.481 --> 00:18:30.701 Sorry, Ralph. 00:18:34.262 --> 00:18:36.749 It's just a typical assault 00:18:36.788 --> 00:18:38.413 to neglect something once 00:18:38.472 --> 00:18:40.458 it got it to a certain level. 00:18:40.930 --> 00:18:42.490 But a hundred percent agree, Dave, 00:18:42.611 --> 00:18:43.810 women's football is much 00:18:43.851 --> 00:18:45.832 more competitive than men's 00:18:45.852 --> 00:18:47.413 football because it's still 00:18:47.452 --> 00:18:49.192 at the stage where the players, 00:18:49.554 --> 00:18:50.594 they're not millionaires. 00:18:50.834 --> 00:18:51.775 They actually want to play 00:18:51.795 --> 00:18:53.654 football and they want to win things. 00:18:54.355 --> 00:18:55.836 I have a pal that used to 00:18:55.875 --> 00:18:57.457 play for England and she 00:18:57.497 --> 00:18:59.137 went away over to America. 00:18:59.637 --> 00:19:01.199 And she says to me, if you get a chance, 00:19:01.239 --> 00:19:03.179 just watch a game because it's brutal. 00:19:03.579 --> 00:19:03.779 You know, 00:19:03.799 --> 00:19:06.800 when you're actually stood at the side. 00:19:07.421 --> 00:19:08.981 And I was over at Loughborough 00:19:09.801 --> 00:19:12.123 and I kind of I think it was 00:19:12.303 --> 00:19:14.022 a caledonian uni were 00:19:14.063 --> 00:19:16.304 playing the local team and 00:19:16.344 --> 00:19:17.703 as soon as the referee blew 00:19:17.743 --> 00:19:19.305 the whistle it would 00:19:19.365 --> 00:19:20.404 everybody wanted the ball 00:19:20.444 --> 00:19:23.486 and it was just I would say 00:19:23.526 --> 00:19:24.766 refreshing but kind of 00:19:24.806 --> 00:19:26.227 frightening as well and 00:19:26.247 --> 00:19:27.446 that's kind of been lost in 00:19:27.467 --> 00:19:28.646 the in the men's game a wee 00:19:28.666 --> 00:19:30.647 bit because of your injury 00:19:30.688 --> 00:19:32.248 and all that kind of thing 00:19:32.327 --> 00:19:32.909 can I just can I just say 00:19:32.929 --> 00:19:34.108 just just just one thing 00:19:34.128 --> 00:19:35.108 and I've heard a few people 00:19:35.128 --> 00:19:35.828 we're all online and 00:19:35.848 --> 00:19:36.710 everything right you always 00:19:36.730 --> 00:19:37.509 get a wee group of them 00:19:38.393 --> 00:19:39.574 Ah, it's women's football. 00:19:40.255 --> 00:19:41.635 Oh, it's the Celtic women's team. 00:19:42.036 --> 00:19:43.017 What's that got to do with 00:19:43.237 --> 00:19:45.019 the men's team and all that kind of stuff, 00:19:45.038 --> 00:19:45.259 right? 00:19:45.318 --> 00:19:46.539 And everybody's entitled to their opinion. 00:19:46.579 --> 00:19:47.601 I get it, right? 00:19:47.641 --> 00:19:48.642 The only thing for me I 00:19:48.662 --> 00:19:52.045 would say to that is the 00:19:52.085 --> 00:19:53.806 women's game in Scotland, 00:19:54.145 --> 00:19:54.967 the men's game's had about 00:19:54.987 --> 00:19:55.728 a hundred and twenty, 00:19:55.768 --> 00:19:56.949 a hundred and thirty year start. 00:19:57.429 --> 00:19:59.069 wasn't it right and it's 00:19:59.109 --> 00:20:00.711 took the men's game so long 00:20:00.771 --> 00:20:01.951 to get to where it's got to 00:20:02.333 --> 00:20:03.433 we've got half the 00:20:03.473 --> 00:20:05.234 population here that were 00:20:05.275 --> 00:20:06.536 pretty much excluded for 00:20:06.556 --> 00:20:08.636 football up until very very 00:20:08.656 --> 00:20:09.518 recently in terms of 00:20:09.557 --> 00:20:10.659 playing the game that is 00:20:10.699 --> 00:20:12.460 right yeah so the least the 00:20:12.539 --> 00:20:15.461 least that Celtic and any 00:20:15.481 --> 00:20:16.262 other professional club 00:20:16.282 --> 00:20:17.864 should do is give initially 00:20:17.923 --> 00:20:20.826 a helping hand helping hand we're loaded 00:20:21.747 --> 00:20:23.769 right to give a couple of 00:20:23.788 --> 00:20:24.729 million pound two three 00:20:24.749 --> 00:20:26.351 million pound a year to get 00:20:26.371 --> 00:20:27.491 the women's team momentum 00:20:27.872 --> 00:20:28.952 over the next five ten 00:20:28.972 --> 00:20:30.173 years then off it would go 00:20:30.453 --> 00:20:32.095 it'd fly after that but as 00:20:32.236 --> 00:20:33.477 usual it's the penny 00:20:33.517 --> 00:20:34.917 pinching not quite sure 00:20:34.958 --> 00:20:36.538 what to do a wee bit of 00:20:36.578 --> 00:20:38.059 help here and there tick a 00:20:38.079 --> 00:20:39.942 couple of boxes mainly uefa 00:20:39.981 --> 00:20:40.923 boxes no doubt that we've 00:20:40.942 --> 00:20:42.002 got a women's professional 00:20:42.042 --> 00:20:43.805 team usual nonsense rather 00:20:43.825 --> 00:20:44.806 than think strategically 00:20:45.086 --> 00:20:46.287 and think about the 00:20:46.307 --> 00:20:47.127 importance of the club as a 00:20:47.147 --> 00:20:49.568 whole you know it's half the population 00:20:50.309 --> 00:20:51.711 Give it as much backing as you can. 00:20:51.770 --> 00:20:52.912 And more importantly, it's Celtic. 00:20:52.932 --> 00:20:54.913 It's Celtic. 00:20:54.933 --> 00:20:56.515 To be fair, to be fair, 00:20:56.595 --> 00:20:58.656 Ralph had been campaigning 00:20:58.696 --> 00:21:00.519 for a Celtic Park 00:21:01.019 --> 00:21:03.740 hospitality factor for about a year, 00:21:03.780 --> 00:21:04.521 maybe, Ralph, 00:21:04.561 --> 00:21:05.863 and it's maybe been 00:21:05.903 --> 00:21:07.664 implemented in the last eight months. 00:21:07.684 --> 00:21:09.645 So maybe in fifteen years 00:21:09.665 --> 00:21:11.127 there might be an 00:21:11.528 --> 00:21:12.689 investment the women's team 00:21:12.749 --> 00:21:13.589 actually deserves. 00:21:13.990 --> 00:21:15.090 Right, Ralph, what about you? 00:21:15.171 --> 00:21:17.373 Season overall, any thoughts, 00:21:17.452 --> 00:21:18.653 anything that springs to mind? 00:21:22.780 --> 00:21:24.182 And it's still kind of disappointing. 00:21:24.582 --> 00:21:26.242 I think we should have and 00:21:26.282 --> 00:21:27.243 could have done a wee bit 00:21:27.284 --> 00:21:28.044 better in Europe. 00:21:30.405 --> 00:21:32.626 We seemed to set a target of qualifying. 00:21:33.528 --> 00:21:35.568 And after that, nothing mattered. 00:21:36.288 --> 00:21:38.530 When we got to the... We 00:21:38.570 --> 00:21:39.550 kind of got qualified. 00:21:39.611 --> 00:21:40.451 We'd got the game left 00:21:40.491 --> 00:21:41.492 against Aston Villa. 00:21:42.272 --> 00:21:45.015 And it was just a sort of turn up. 00:21:45.075 --> 00:21:46.895 And then Hirahashi went away. 00:21:47.656 --> 00:21:49.057 And when we came to play Bayern... 00:21:50.478 --> 00:21:51.878 It felt to me like we were 00:21:51.939 --> 00:21:54.398 playing for extra time in the second leg. 00:21:55.000 --> 00:21:56.920 It felt like we'd done enough, 00:21:57.000 --> 00:21:58.601 but anything else in the bonus, 00:21:59.080 --> 00:22:00.401 don't embarrass ourselves. 00:22:01.280 --> 00:22:02.481 And looking at what happened 00:22:02.501 --> 00:22:04.362 last night with Postacoglu 00:22:04.402 --> 00:22:06.323 winning the Europa League, 00:22:07.742 --> 00:22:08.943 if we could get a kind of... 00:22:10.415 --> 00:22:11.896 A mix of the two managers 00:22:12.356 --> 00:22:13.238 were a wee bit better in 00:22:13.278 --> 00:22:16.700 defence and the adventurism 00:22:16.740 --> 00:22:17.579 of Postacoglu. 00:22:18.059 --> 00:22:19.240 And I think we did get 00:22:19.401 --> 00:22:20.781 further in the Champions League. 00:22:21.741 --> 00:22:23.502 You had the Haakon scoring 00:22:23.563 --> 00:22:25.223 over in Munich and then the 00:22:25.443 --> 00:22:27.965 absolute inevitability of 00:22:28.086 --> 00:22:31.448 Carter Vickers doing what he does and... 00:22:32.488 --> 00:22:33.808 negating all the good work 00:22:33.848 --> 00:22:35.109 done by the rest of the defence. 00:22:35.871 --> 00:22:37.551 And, of course, we signed Jeremy Shloop, 00:22:37.571 --> 00:22:38.571 or whatever his name is, 00:22:39.032 --> 00:22:40.453 and it was just like... Did 00:22:40.493 --> 00:22:43.096 Geoffrey Shloop attack? 00:22:45.257 --> 00:22:46.498 Geoffrey Shloop just got an 00:22:46.518 --> 00:22:47.898 FA Cup medal for playing 00:22:47.919 --> 00:22:49.619 for the first round of the FA Cup, 00:22:49.759 --> 00:22:50.560 I think it was. 00:22:50.780 --> 00:22:53.323 So that guy's a super hero. 00:22:53.383 --> 00:22:54.703 Where did you get that from? 00:22:54.784 --> 00:22:55.983 If you're not playing in the final, 00:22:56.003 --> 00:22:56.785 you don't get a medal. 00:22:57.005 --> 00:22:58.546 If you're James Forrest... 00:22:59.906 --> 00:23:01.490 Hasn't got a full set of the 00:23:01.529 --> 00:23:02.952 four tribbles because he 00:23:02.992 --> 00:23:04.075 never played in one game. 00:23:04.776 --> 00:23:05.998 And England's a part of the squad. 00:23:06.038 --> 00:23:06.960 Did you see the Europa 00:23:06.980 --> 00:23:08.563 League last night ran out of medals? 00:23:09.291 --> 00:23:10.313 By the time it came to the 00:23:10.353 --> 00:23:11.472 last four players, 00:23:11.692 --> 00:23:12.693 someone's looking at him, 00:23:13.153 --> 00:23:15.174 which is named Solanke up front. 00:23:15.255 --> 00:23:16.655 He's looking about for his medal. 00:23:16.915 --> 00:23:18.497 The guy's looking at an empty tray. 00:23:18.797 --> 00:23:20.018 I think they had five people. 00:23:20.178 --> 00:23:21.659 Five people with goalkeeper totes on. 00:23:21.679 --> 00:23:22.439 And by the way, 00:23:23.759 --> 00:23:25.101 Bayern Munich are light 00:23:25.121 --> 00:23:26.622 years ahead of Man U or Spurs. 00:23:27.142 --> 00:23:28.563 Aston Villa are light years 00:23:28.583 --> 00:23:29.643 ahead of Man U or Spurs. 00:23:29.663 --> 00:23:30.983 So there's no comparison. 00:23:32.604 --> 00:23:33.744 Which one's actually got a 00:23:33.825 --> 00:23:35.025 European trophy this year? 00:23:35.345 --> 00:23:36.586 Don't tell me you wouldn't 00:23:36.625 --> 00:23:37.945 have accepted that last night. 00:23:37.965 --> 00:23:38.926 I'll be in the Champions 00:23:38.967 --> 00:23:40.346 League every time. 00:23:40.366 --> 00:23:44.087 Maybe I'll be a bit of a devil's advocate. 00:23:44.167 --> 00:23:48.329 I can agree with you to an extent there, 00:23:48.390 --> 00:23:48.650 Ralph. 00:23:48.730 --> 00:23:51.171 I was a wee bit disappointed 00:23:51.931 --> 00:23:52.490 in Europe too. 00:23:52.530 --> 00:23:55.172 The thing gets me is 00:23:56.451 --> 00:23:57.573 Karen touched on the whole 00:23:57.613 --> 00:24:00.057 strategy and moving on 00:24:00.097 --> 00:24:02.282 progress and stepping stones, that idea. 00:24:03.233 --> 00:24:04.294 Are we really progressing 00:24:04.354 --> 00:24:05.214 that much in Europe? 00:24:05.414 --> 00:24:06.954 Or is it always just a case of, 00:24:07.335 --> 00:24:08.955 let's see what happens next year. 00:24:08.976 --> 00:24:10.096 Let's see what happens next year. 00:24:10.155 --> 00:24:11.496 Rather than, right, 00:24:11.596 --> 00:24:13.336 we've got a few more people. 00:24:13.396 --> 00:24:14.317 I'm disputing the question. 00:24:14.576 --> 00:24:15.277 A few more people. 00:24:15.297 --> 00:24:17.438 No, that's your opinion. 00:24:17.458 --> 00:24:18.357 That's what you're thinking. 00:24:18.397 --> 00:24:18.758 No, I'm right. 00:24:18.778 --> 00:24:19.137 I gave it a bit. 00:24:19.157 --> 00:24:20.117 Don't sit on the fence. 00:24:20.137 --> 00:24:21.298 I'm putting it out there. 00:24:21.338 --> 00:24:22.058 That's what you think. 00:24:22.078 --> 00:24:24.640 No, because I was about to say. 00:24:24.660 --> 00:24:24.940 No, you don't. 00:24:24.960 --> 00:24:25.779 I was about to say that 00:24:25.799 --> 00:24:27.660 we've got a few more guys experienced. 00:24:28.000 --> 00:24:29.580 So that will bed us in for next year. 00:24:30.080 --> 00:24:31.280 But classic Celtic, 00:24:31.580 --> 00:24:33.321 see the younger guys you've 00:24:33.342 --> 00:24:34.082 got experience, 00:24:34.321 --> 00:24:35.182 they're the exact guys 00:24:35.202 --> 00:24:36.163 we're going to sell in the 00:24:36.202 --> 00:24:38.083 summer for another twenty million. 00:24:38.542 --> 00:24:40.263 And then we're back to square one again. 00:24:40.483 --> 00:24:42.625 Karen, Waldorf and Stattler and Waldorf, 00:24:42.684 --> 00:24:44.484 two guys sitting in your Celtic park, 00:24:44.545 --> 00:24:45.184 you dread. 00:24:45.545 --> 00:24:47.346 At least you put me in your sector, 00:24:47.445 --> 00:24:50.987 I'll tell you that. 00:24:51.247 --> 00:24:52.948 Karen, you're sitting in for Monty tonight, 00:24:53.028 --> 00:24:54.248 Monty usually backs him up. 00:24:56.648 --> 00:25:01.990 Before I go to anything else, Hector, 00:25:02.090 --> 00:25:03.651 before I forget, 00:25:03.691 --> 00:25:06.771 we were talking about Celtic in Europe. 00:25:07.211 --> 00:25:08.553 The best performance by a 00:25:08.633 --> 00:25:09.712 Celtic in Europe has 00:25:09.932 --> 00:25:12.374 arguably been your pictures 00:25:12.473 --> 00:25:13.855 from your recent holiday. 00:25:13.894 --> 00:25:15.194 Would you like to tell the 00:25:15.234 --> 00:25:16.355 four listeners where you 00:25:16.395 --> 00:25:17.536 were on holiday recently? 00:25:18.317 --> 00:25:19.096 It was really nice. 00:25:19.116 --> 00:25:22.079 We booked last year, my wife and I, 00:25:22.220 --> 00:25:23.260 and we went away to Lisbon 00:25:23.641 --> 00:25:24.461 for a few nights. 00:25:25.803 --> 00:25:28.125 It was only two weeks or so ago. 00:25:28.786 --> 00:25:29.307 And obviously it was, 00:25:29.326 --> 00:25:31.588 you would say just before 00:25:31.608 --> 00:25:32.429 you started recording it, 00:25:32.549 --> 00:25:33.170 it really was the 00:25:33.210 --> 00:25:33.951 pilgrimage because there's 00:25:33.971 --> 00:25:34.811 that many fans doing it. 00:25:34.852 --> 00:25:36.032 More so because there's 00:25:36.093 --> 00:25:36.833 going to be some stadium 00:25:36.853 --> 00:25:39.076 redevelopment taking place soon on it. 00:25:39.836 --> 00:25:41.218 and they've got the funding, 00:25:41.298 --> 00:25:42.640 I think they've got thirty million euros. 00:25:43.901 --> 00:25:44.981 But the good news is the 00:25:45.082 --> 00:25:46.003 redevelopment isn't going 00:25:46.023 --> 00:25:46.984 to be ripping it all down. 00:25:47.005 --> 00:25:47.965 It will just be like a new 00:25:48.006 --> 00:25:49.186 roof and some new seats and that. 00:25:49.207 --> 00:25:50.209 So it's broadly going to 00:25:50.229 --> 00:25:51.769 look how it has looked. 00:25:52.431 --> 00:25:55.474 So we went there and it was interesting. 00:25:56.915 --> 00:25:57.616 we were talking about it as 00:25:57.656 --> 00:25:59.217 you do at night time but 00:25:59.237 --> 00:26:00.137 we've enjoyed the holiday 00:26:00.178 --> 00:26:01.438 once we're over there there 00:26:01.458 --> 00:26:03.098 for five nights and my wife 00:26:03.118 --> 00:26:04.420 being my wife she went her 00:26:04.440 --> 00:26:06.400 highlight was was watching 00:26:06.461 --> 00:26:07.980 me when we went to the 00:26:08.020 --> 00:26:10.501 stadio national right and I 00:26:10.521 --> 00:26:11.623 mean what do you mean she 00:26:11.643 --> 00:26:13.644 goes you were like a wee boy again 00:26:14.423 --> 00:26:15.163 And it was interesting. 00:26:15.203 --> 00:26:16.944 So we go there, just to put it in context, 00:26:17.486 --> 00:26:18.205 they've changed it from 00:26:18.226 --> 00:26:19.788 Monday to Friday now 00:26:19.807 --> 00:26:20.888 between nine and twelve. 00:26:21.628 --> 00:26:22.089 And lucky enough, 00:26:22.109 --> 00:26:24.391 we booked Thursday to the Tuesday. 00:26:24.491 --> 00:26:25.471 So we covered the Friday and 00:26:25.491 --> 00:26:26.413 Monday just in case. 00:26:27.153 --> 00:26:28.295 But a lot of fans would go on a Friday. 00:26:28.315 --> 00:26:29.055 The flight doesn't get there 00:26:29.075 --> 00:26:30.016 till late on Friday morning. 00:26:30.056 --> 00:26:31.837 So you won't get in in many cases. 00:26:32.077 --> 00:26:33.159 So we thought, oh, they're nice and sharp, 00:26:33.179 --> 00:26:33.980 nine o'clock in the morning. 00:26:35.119 --> 00:26:36.260 and then pretty much she had 00:26:36.280 --> 00:26:37.381 the place to herself we 00:26:37.421 --> 00:26:38.161 couldn't go on the pitch 00:26:38.541 --> 00:26:39.281 couldn't go to where Billy 00:26:39.321 --> 00:26:40.622 left the trophy but where 00:26:40.642 --> 00:26:41.823 the tunnel was with the 00:26:41.863 --> 00:26:43.604 changing rooms where this 00:26:43.624 --> 00:26:44.483 whole side of the pitch we 00:26:44.503 --> 00:26:45.304 could go there but it was 00:26:45.324 --> 00:26:46.164 just interesting she said 00:26:46.625 --> 00:26:47.785 you became a wee boy again 00:26:48.306 --> 00:26:49.125 and it was just like you're 00:26:49.145 --> 00:26:51.086 transfixed you just you 00:26:51.106 --> 00:26:52.086 know you go to the tunnel 00:26:52.207 --> 00:26:53.407 where Betty started singing 00:26:53.428 --> 00:26:54.708 the Celtic song you'd you 00:26:54.728 --> 00:26:55.488 can visualize all the 00:26:55.508 --> 00:26:57.108 players there and then 00:26:57.128 --> 00:26:58.509 you're out on the same side 00:26:58.569 --> 00:26:59.710 of the pitch just off it 00:26:59.910 --> 00:27:01.371 where the the dugout not 00:27:01.391 --> 00:27:02.211 the dugout where the bench 00:27:02.250 --> 00:27:03.852 was where Jock and all the players were 00:27:04.881 --> 00:27:05.580 And it's amazing. 00:27:07.442 --> 00:27:09.082 It's almost like you do, 00:27:09.362 --> 00:27:10.542 you step back in time and 00:27:10.563 --> 00:27:11.363 you think of your own 00:27:11.682 --> 00:27:13.384 parents or family that's now here. 00:27:13.804 --> 00:27:15.624 So it's quite an emotional 00:27:15.644 --> 00:27:18.045 thing and a fabulous thing. 00:27:18.085 --> 00:27:19.986 And if Andy's not done it yet, 00:27:20.874 --> 00:27:22.315 I would just say do it and 00:27:22.335 --> 00:27:23.474 what we did just to add to 00:27:23.494 --> 00:27:24.476 it a wee bit you know 00:27:24.576 --> 00:27:25.797 technology time moves on 00:27:25.836 --> 00:27:26.936 and folk get taxis and that 00:27:27.538 --> 00:27:28.438 I said to myself I'd like 00:27:28.478 --> 00:27:29.199 to do it the way the 00:27:29.519 --> 00:27:30.358 hospital did it way back 00:27:30.398 --> 00:27:30.999 then when they were in 00:27:31.019 --> 00:27:32.279 Lisbon you get the train 00:27:32.880 --> 00:27:33.921 and the train down at the 00:27:33.941 --> 00:27:36.082 river it's six stops to the 00:27:36.102 --> 00:27:37.143 wee town where the Stadion 00:27:37.182 --> 00:27:38.663 National is and we get out 00:27:38.683 --> 00:27:41.164 of the train and the train it's like ah 00:27:43.069 --> 00:27:43.930 as if it's not a lick of 00:27:43.970 --> 00:27:44.970 paint in about eight a year 00:27:45.391 --> 00:27:47.070 which I thought was perfect 00:27:48.290 --> 00:27:49.991 it was perfect you didn't 00:27:50.031 --> 00:27:51.711 want a modern you wanted it 00:27:51.832 --> 00:27:53.211 to kind of be how it was 00:27:53.231 --> 00:27:54.653 and you get out it was run 00:27:54.692 --> 00:27:55.873 down although weirdly 00:27:55.893 --> 00:27:56.452 enough there was a wee 00:27:56.492 --> 00:27:58.712 beach right behind it but 00:27:58.752 --> 00:28:00.294 you walk up the avenue and 00:28:00.314 --> 00:28:02.034 it was like almost doing it 00:28:02.094 --> 00:28:04.795 the way people did then and 00:28:04.815 --> 00:28:06.654 they as I say I would just 00:28:07.454 --> 00:28:08.955 highly recommend it just go 00:28:08.976 --> 00:28:10.096 and live it and you know 00:28:11.323 --> 00:28:12.143 Amazing. 00:28:12.182 --> 00:28:12.544 Wonderful. 00:28:15.605 --> 00:28:15.944 Very good. 00:28:16.045 --> 00:28:19.047 Ralph or Karen, have you done it? 00:28:19.067 --> 00:28:21.688 That was over in Lisbon in 00:28:21.728 --> 00:28:23.387 the year when we played 00:28:23.428 --> 00:28:25.670 Benfica and obviously it 00:28:25.690 --> 00:28:26.369 was the fortieth 00:28:26.410 --> 00:28:29.250 anniversary and I have to 00:28:29.270 --> 00:28:29.911 agree with Hector, 00:28:29.931 --> 00:28:30.932 you do feel like a wee boy 00:28:32.173 --> 00:28:33.153 We came off the plane at the 00:28:33.233 --> 00:28:35.155 airport and the lions were there. 00:28:36.057 --> 00:28:37.077 And I went over, 00:28:37.178 --> 00:28:38.398 I get pushed over to ask 00:28:38.598 --> 00:28:39.339 what time they were going 00:28:39.359 --> 00:28:40.140 down to the ground. 00:28:41.000 --> 00:28:45.464 And I spoke to Bertie Auld and he says, 00:28:45.525 --> 00:28:46.365 I've got no idea. 00:28:46.885 --> 00:28:48.227 And then he shouts, oh, Billy, 00:28:48.346 --> 00:28:49.347 what time are we doing it? 00:28:49.488 --> 00:28:50.388 And all of a sudden I'm 00:28:50.429 --> 00:28:51.190 there with all of them. 00:28:52.471 --> 00:28:53.932 And honestly, I felt five year old. 00:28:54.492 --> 00:28:56.074 When we went to the park 00:28:56.094 --> 00:28:56.835 where the ground is, 00:28:58.612 --> 00:29:00.393 one of the rogues that was 00:29:00.452 --> 00:29:02.095 with us had got a load of 00:29:02.335 --> 00:29:04.876 Euros that weren't quite real. 00:29:05.917 --> 00:29:08.140 And there were guys selling cases of beer. 00:29:08.180 --> 00:29:08.921 Allegedly, 00:29:09.882 --> 00:29:12.144 for the sake of any legal people 00:29:12.183 --> 00:29:14.184 listening, allegedly, carry on. 00:29:16.401 --> 00:29:17.840 So what you did, you used, 00:29:18.501 --> 00:29:19.843 I was told that you could 00:29:20.002 --> 00:29:21.263 use the fake euros to buy 00:29:21.284 --> 00:29:22.904 beer and they would give you change. 00:29:23.345 --> 00:29:25.526 So where did Billy get the trophy? 00:29:25.925 --> 00:29:27.227 We sat up there drinking, 00:29:27.948 --> 00:29:28.567 actually I think it was 00:29:28.587 --> 00:29:29.808 like Corona stuff. 00:29:30.930 --> 00:29:32.891 And it was a fantastic day. 00:29:33.171 --> 00:29:35.432 But the thing that kind of 00:29:35.451 --> 00:29:36.472 occurred to me later was 00:29:36.673 --> 00:29:37.973 everybody that was there 00:29:37.993 --> 00:29:39.394 was trying to recreate the goal. 00:29:40.810 --> 00:29:42.432 And after about half an hour, 00:29:42.471 --> 00:29:43.373 we realised they were 00:29:43.393 --> 00:29:44.394 shooting on the wrong end. 00:29:45.634 --> 00:29:46.556 Is this the end of Milango? 00:29:46.576 --> 00:29:47.076 Just to be clear. 00:29:47.096 --> 00:29:47.155 No. 00:29:47.175 --> 00:29:48.196 No, they're still at the same end as us, 00:29:48.217 --> 00:29:48.837 aren't they? 00:29:51.420 --> 00:29:51.619 Yeah, 00:29:51.880 --> 00:29:54.823 but as you're sat up there watching it, 00:29:55.830 --> 00:29:57.031 They were all doing the other end, 00:29:57.392 --> 00:29:58.152 recreating it, 00:29:58.632 --> 00:29:59.413 and running around and 00:29:59.472 --> 00:30:02.213 doing their wee celebrations. 00:30:02.534 --> 00:30:03.375 And it was only after we 00:30:03.414 --> 00:30:04.515 realised that the cameras 00:30:04.576 --> 00:30:05.736 were in a different place. 00:30:07.876 --> 00:30:10.378 And I didn't feel confident 00:30:10.419 --> 00:30:11.419 enough to go onto the pitch 00:30:11.439 --> 00:30:13.500 in case one of the local teams signed me. 00:30:13.940 --> 00:30:15.201 So I just left it to everybody else. 00:30:15.221 --> 00:30:16.662 All right, locals on down, maybe. 00:30:16.682 --> 00:30:17.102 What about you, Cam? 00:30:17.162 --> 00:30:20.763 Yeah, my visit was a bit of a nightmare. 00:30:20.983 --> 00:30:22.005 Sorry, Hector. 00:30:22.025 --> 00:30:25.127 Yeah, it was quite that. 00:30:25.387 --> 00:30:26.489 I think it was, 00:30:26.709 --> 00:30:29.090 I went over twice and we 00:30:29.111 --> 00:30:30.653 got beat by Penfica three 00:30:30.673 --> 00:30:31.814 nil in a one nil game. 00:30:32.394 --> 00:30:33.575 Can't remember what one it was, 00:30:33.615 --> 00:30:36.076 but I went over and I've 00:30:36.137 --> 00:30:38.078 obviously no idea where I was going. 00:30:38.138 --> 00:30:39.921 So it was the gate swirled a 00:30:39.961 --> 00:30:41.823 lot and it was the opposite 00:30:41.843 --> 00:30:43.443 side from where Billy picked up the cup. 00:30:43.463 --> 00:30:44.785 I didn't realise you could do that. 00:30:44.805 --> 00:30:45.066 Yeah, yeah. 00:30:46.663 --> 00:30:48.183 and get in and wee gab would 00:30:48.223 --> 00:30:49.384 let you in I didn't realise 00:30:49.404 --> 00:30:50.565 so I just like took some 00:30:50.585 --> 00:30:51.605 photos through the gates 00:30:52.184 --> 00:30:53.305 and that was my experience 00:30:53.384 --> 00:30:54.285 and then of course when I 00:30:54.305 --> 00:30:55.746 came back people said no 00:30:55.766 --> 00:30:57.006 you should have done that 00:30:57.385 --> 00:30:59.365 yeah so yeah it was a bit 00:30:59.465 --> 00:31:00.705 of a nightmare so it is on 00:31:00.727 --> 00:31:01.807 my bucket list to go back 00:31:01.826 --> 00:31:02.886 and do it definitely see 00:31:02.926 --> 00:31:03.906 Karen's thing there for 00:31:03.926 --> 00:31:05.106 those who aren't there when 00:31:05.126 --> 00:31:06.567 you walk up to it the one 00:31:06.607 --> 00:31:08.327 hole side's open so see if 00:31:08.607 --> 00:31:10.647 you're outside it you see 00:31:10.667 --> 00:31:11.528 the picture and everything 00:31:11.587 --> 00:31:12.749 one hole side's open right 00:31:13.088 --> 00:31:14.469 but see if you walk past that gate 00:31:14.888 --> 00:31:15.729 There's like a wee, 00:31:16.288 --> 00:31:17.128 the changing rooms are 00:31:17.249 --> 00:31:18.269 there and it's no change, 00:31:18.289 --> 00:31:19.309 it's like old art decor, 00:31:19.509 --> 00:31:20.869 it's honestly old art decor 00:31:20.890 --> 00:31:21.529 changing rooms. 00:31:22.069 --> 00:31:23.871 Just a wee twenty, 00:31:23.891 --> 00:31:25.391 thirty metre space and it's 00:31:25.411 --> 00:31:26.691 an open space to the tunnel 00:31:27.111 --> 00:31:28.011 and that's round the corner, 00:31:28.092 --> 00:31:29.211 literally twenty metres, 00:31:29.231 --> 00:31:30.432 thirty metres round the corner from it. 00:31:31.912 --> 00:31:33.673 Yeah. 00:31:33.712 --> 00:31:34.113 But yeah, 00:31:34.232 --> 00:31:35.292 that's definitely on the bucket 00:31:35.313 --> 00:31:36.913 list to go back and do it. 00:31:36.972 --> 00:31:38.634 Because Lisbon's a beautiful city as well, 00:31:38.854 --> 00:31:40.894 really gorgeous. 00:31:41.173 --> 00:31:42.815 If you don't count the cobbled pavements, 00:31:43.295 -->

01:07:37.875 --> 01:07:39.916 You're such a bunch of pessimists. 01:07:43.418 --> 01:07:43.780 Come on, Gary. 01:07:43.800 --> 01:07:45.280 I'll be even more pessimistic. 01:07:45.621 --> 01:07:46.201 I was talking about this 01:07:46.221 --> 01:07:47.402 game of day and I said, 01:07:47.442 --> 01:07:49.083 find this Celtic-Aberdeen tradition. 01:07:49.844 --> 01:07:51.646 I think Aberdeen will score first. 01:07:51.666 --> 01:07:52.806 I think it will be like the 01:07:52.847 --> 01:07:54.027 Roderick final idea. 01:07:54.527 --> 01:07:55.528 Aberdeen will score first. 01:07:55.548 --> 01:07:56.469 We will do the usual, 01:07:56.610 --> 01:07:58.431 possibly put a corner and 01:07:58.451 --> 01:07:59.371 somehow they'll win the 01:07:59.391 --> 01:08:00.333 second ball and score. 01:08:00.753 --> 01:08:01.514 And then we'll have to 01:08:01.554 --> 01:08:02.775 suddenly come alive again. 01:08:02.815 --> 01:08:03.755 Somebody will have to grab 01:08:04.376 --> 01:08:05.177 the game with the foot and 01:08:05.197 --> 01:08:06.978 neck and then get the two-one. 01:08:06.998 --> 01:08:08.259 My wife always picks two-one, 01:08:08.298 --> 01:08:09.740 so that will be my bet. 01:08:10.181 --> 01:08:11.322 So we will bet on two-one. 01:08:11.661 --> 01:08:13.844 But again, I would hope three-one, 01:08:14.123 --> 01:08:14.684 to be honest. 01:08:15.144 --> 01:08:16.765 But again, it depends. 01:08:17.266 --> 01:08:17.907 I actually think it will 01:08:17.926 --> 01:08:18.768 depend on the ref. 01:08:19.161 --> 01:08:20.161 How lenient is he going to 01:08:20.201 --> 01:08:20.841 be with that big? 01:08:21.402 --> 01:08:23.063 Is it Papi Gouy, 01:08:23.103 --> 01:08:24.462 who has battled Hatati 01:08:24.502 --> 01:08:25.543 across the pitch gallery, 01:08:26.003 --> 01:08:26.724 and then Shinny? 01:08:26.764 --> 01:08:28.024 You know what I mean? 01:08:28.085 --> 01:08:30.525 How much the referee lets him away early? 01:08:30.985 --> 01:08:33.707 That'll be interesting. 01:08:33.726 --> 01:08:34.967 There might be an indication 01:08:34.988 --> 01:08:36.028 of their attitude with the 01:08:36.047 --> 01:08:37.309 way they dealt with Hatati 01:08:37.429 --> 01:08:38.088 in the last game. 01:08:39.069 --> 01:08:39.850 But he tried it on a few, 01:08:39.869 --> 01:08:40.871 because at one point, 01:08:40.890 --> 01:08:42.211 I don't know if it is. 01:08:42.751 --> 01:08:43.452 There was somebody, 01:08:43.492 --> 01:08:44.492 I can't remember if it was 01:08:44.572 --> 01:08:46.493 McGregor or Johnson, 01:08:46.533 --> 01:08:48.713 but somebody on the bottom corner 01:08:49.604 --> 01:08:50.244 was pointing, 01:08:50.586 --> 01:08:51.485 basically pointing a finger 01:08:51.506 --> 01:08:52.827 in his face as I know you 01:08:52.846 --> 01:08:53.488 were up to there, 01:08:53.707 --> 01:08:54.689 as if he was trying to 01:08:54.729 --> 01:08:55.729 leave one on somebody 01:08:55.789 --> 01:08:56.649 earlier in the game before 01:08:56.689 --> 01:08:57.650 he'd done a tatty. 01:08:57.890 --> 01:08:59.572 See, that's one of my concerns is Rio. 01:09:00.153 --> 01:09:01.212 We talked on the podcast 01:09:01.333 --> 01:09:02.134 recently about that. 01:09:02.634 --> 01:09:03.715 When Rio plays, we play. 01:09:04.376 --> 01:09:05.476 When Rio's invisible, 01:09:05.617 --> 01:09:06.617 we tend to be invisible and 01:09:06.636 --> 01:09:07.518 tend to have creativity. 01:09:08.018 --> 01:09:08.479 And it's been, 01:09:08.498 --> 01:09:10.100 I think Roger has asked recently about it, 01:09:10.119 --> 01:09:11.560 because since we go to one game a week, 01:09:12.362 --> 01:09:12.862 he's just, 01:09:13.002 --> 01:09:14.122 he struggles with three games a week. 01:09:14.222 --> 01:09:15.023 It's just how it is. 01:09:15.042 --> 01:09:15.543 But the one that we, 01:09:15.684 --> 01:09:16.585 he's just been brilliant. 01:09:17.244 --> 01:09:18.405 And I think who comes in, 01:09:18.445 --> 01:09:19.067 it's either going to be 01:09:19.087 --> 01:09:21.029 obviously Bernardo or McEwan, 01:09:21.509 --> 01:09:23.872 but they're not the same quality at Rio. 01:09:23.891 --> 01:09:25.273 They're not that number ten 01:09:25.292 --> 01:09:26.253 who picks the pass. 01:09:26.954 --> 01:09:28.815 And that's an interesting one. 01:09:29.216 --> 01:09:29.957 Who plays there? 01:09:30.438 --> 01:09:31.819 And then does somebody else 01:09:31.838 --> 01:09:32.899 have to be a bit more 01:09:33.201 --> 01:09:34.502 creative within the team? 01:09:34.881 --> 01:09:36.304 Does Calmec go forward a bit more? 01:09:36.404 --> 01:09:36.944 I'm not sure. 01:09:37.324 --> 01:09:38.765 Because Bernardo is maybe 01:09:38.805 --> 01:09:40.167 more a six player. 01:09:40.768 --> 01:09:41.648 If that makes sense. 01:09:41.929 --> 01:09:43.109 Does Engels push up one to 01:09:43.128 --> 01:09:44.949 become the ten and Bernardo 01:09:44.989 --> 01:09:45.670 becomes the ten? 01:09:45.770 --> 01:09:46.210 I don't know. 01:09:46.590 --> 01:09:47.310 But I think Willow, 01:09:47.350 --> 01:09:47.990 the way he's been playing 01:09:48.011 --> 01:09:49.872 the last few weeks, that creativity, 01:09:49.912 --> 01:09:51.152 that's going to be a miss. 01:09:51.171 --> 01:09:51.332 Right, 01:09:54.094 --> 01:09:56.154 before we go into our last Scottish 01:09:56.194 --> 01:09:57.994 Cup item, I do have a Scottish Cup quiz. 01:09:58.574 --> 01:09:59.935 But we've only got five questions, 01:09:59.956 --> 01:10:01.237 so we've only got two questions each. 01:10:01.676 --> 01:10:03.738 So, Karen, I'll give you the choice again. 01:10:03.757 --> 01:10:06.019 Do you want to go one, two, three, 01:10:06.059 --> 01:10:07.698 four or five?

Wham Bham thank you Yang (for 2)
They 5* officials will flirt with an ease of conscious today. They are the innate, mate.
Celts 7-0.
Target their dirty midfielders and pass over the capitis.
dink over*
Everything has the ability to taste fine in a Pint Glass.
Hopefully, another Treble Yell today and I’m going with following:
Schmeichel
Johnston Carter-Vickers Scales Taylor
McGregor Engels Bernardo
Kuhn Idah Maeda.
Forest, McCowan, Yang and others to come on later to seal the deal and please, no nerve shredding ET and penalties although, to be fair, we’ve become quite good at those.
Enjoy, wherever you are and celebrate to the annoyance of the Unholy Trinity of Polis, Politicians and Press, which is a good thing.
Cha is the Celtic mole!
Hail Hail, Bhoys!
Well done, Cha!
The very dab!
Feck me, that was poor.
10 days ago, we beat them 5-1 at their place with a weakened team.
For all the alleged progress this year, there’s an undeniable soft underbelly.
Definitely one of the worst SC finals I’ve ever seen with Aberdeen sticking to their game plan which included a compressed low block along with persistent fouling, time wasting and play-acting fully backed by arguably the very worst referee in Scottish football, which is no mean feat
We, on the other hand, were mince all over the park yesterday. Lack of risk-taking, lack of creative spark, slow tempo for much of the game and no shortage of elementary mistakes. Rogers deserves a lot of criticism for his ineffective tactics, team selection and substitutions, the latter point also dating back to the win up at Pittodrie when he introduced Reo Hatate to the action while we were cruising at 4-1.
Hopefully yesterday’s fiasco wll serve as a wake-up call leading to some serious investment in playing resources this summer. BR’s qualities as a team coach are indisputable but his track record with regard to new signings is a considerable cause for concern. There’s a great deal of untapped talent out in countries like Japan and Croatia that ought to be examined and what a pleasant surprise it would be if we can just for once have new players in through the door by the start of pre-season instead of desperately bringing in highly-inflated last-minute punts. There’s limited time to get this right before that vital CL qualifier in August.
Why am words not through getting?
Perhaps ze admin are simply arscholes ..?
No words allowed then, Ralpho?
I told you you should’ve stayed away from those jabs.
