The SoBL's scattergun approach to the issues right now may be partly to deflect attention from the fact that they complained to the police about Clattenberg based on media reports rather than first-hand accounts or evidence.


Knee-jerk lawyering prompted by the meeja must be a little embarrassing for them.

This just reminded me of a woman I used to work with. We used to do a weekly predictions game with cash prize at the end of the season. She put 2-1 for EVERY single game (she said she knew nothing at all about footy so it seemed the easiest way). She didn't win, but she was pretty high up the league.

"No words to describe the atmosphere at Celtic Park," Pique tweeted into his phone as he left the stadium.


Then La Marca gave the man of the match award to Celtic's supporters. "There is probably no bigger home advantage in all of football than at Celtic Park," it wrote.


Praise does not come much higher than that.

Well I was interested in what El Pais had to say but had to do with the google translation of it. It makes for amusing reading.


Celtic will hardly win the European Cup. It is also known that ultimately is not a heroic conquering Celtic Park. It will not be easy either that bhoys again have a coach like Jock Stein and a player Neal category, or Larsson Jonhsntone. Now it is impossible to form a legendary lineup with children born within 30 miles of Parkhead as happened in 1967. Not even compete with the Rangers down. Celtic, however, will always be the Celtic, impossible to forget a stadium like Celtic Park and green is by definition the opposite color to blue in Glasgow: 125 years after its founding, the Scottish champions club remains a recognizable and admirable very capable of defeating occasionally a team like Barca.


There are few teams that churn through the power of Celtic at Celtic Park game the misty Glasgow. The mixture was explosive for boys of Tito Vilanova, who signed his second loss of the season as they prepared to certify the pass to the second round of the Champions League. The match, after all, was very similar to the Camp Nou. The result, however, was the opposite. Used to being out face Barca yesterday touched the cross in Celtic's lair. The continued possession and shots on goal only served to make the goal of honor.


As it did in Barcelona, ​​Vilanova bet in Glasgow by the touch and Xavi and Iniesta pause before the vertigo of Cesc, Alexis chose aggressiveness to Villa goal, wanted the same team in the first leg, to Alves-except for the injured Adriano-resolved back at Celtic Park. So I had to re-set the pace, stop rondo in the opposite court, avoid turnovers, focus at Forster. Deploying more precisely thanks to Celtic as we saw in the Camp Nou and was found in Glasgow.


The Scots play defense very well at Bar?a. Intense and concentrated, especially well staged on home soil, no spaces or sometimes granted, clog the passing lanes and wait patiently to steal the ball to shoot a transition that inevitably ends in a band or an outside corner. And usually, a corner kick is a scoring chance at Celtic Park. Last night was no exception: Wanyama, measuring more than two feet Alba headed to Mulgrew service network in the first arrival of the boys of Lennon.


He had the same aim Barca. Although hard-earned shooting positions, twice topped timber (Messi and Alexis) and 10 not holed a goal that seemed sung before the noses of Forster. The old story in Celtic-Barcelona duels and often repeated also in Vilanova team, used to compete with the score against, a situation that has already been given in seven games this season, four solved with success, and two with defeat. A Barca had not done any better than playing at home: the break trailing by 1-0.


Nor was news because we know that sometimes seems too flat when a team does not play Villa and Cesc. Alexis has no luck with the porters, either at an auction last night to face with Forster, and yesterday night it was not Peter. The party demanded a change of gear from the Barcelona because the minutes were consumed in favor of Celtic and Vilanova brought El Guaje and, soon after, Cesc and Pique in a row, ready to flip the marker after Forster will again deny Messi goal.


The insult went wrong at Barcelona because the Celtic not spare after a long kick from goalkeeper managed to not reject Xavi. The ball ended up at the foot of Watt and his cross shot beat Valdes output. The meeting had no remedy for the club. Messi's goal, after collecting a rebound of a shot from Villa Forster, did not avail the boys of Vilanova. Again discussed Messi and Villa and held his swollen Scottish team with a startling roar, scream own a club always recognizable by their strength and mystique.


Today, 125 years after its founding, the celebrated Celtic still the beloved Celtic. There could not be a better gift for the 60,000 fans who gather in a single liturgy at Celtic Park to an outstanding victory against Barca. Nobody ever hesitate personality of the Betis of Glasgow.

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By jazzer · Posted

      Agreed and in the meantime its "joe public" who has to pay through higher prices. We're talking all over the shop from food to insurance and everything in between.  And to add insult to injury they "hurt " their own voters/supporters through the actions they have taken. Sadly it gets to a stage where you start thinking about leaving London and even exiting the UK for good, but where to go????? Sad times now and ahead for at least the next 4yrs, hence why Govt and Local Authorities need to cut spending on all but essential services.  An immediate saving, all managerial and executive salaries cannot exceed and frozen at £50K Do away with the Mayor of London, the GLA and all the hanging on organisations, plus do away with borough mayors and the teams that serve them. All added beauracracy that can be dispensed with and will save £££££'s

      The minimum wage hikes on top of the NICs increases have also caused vast swathes of unemployment.

      Exactly - a snap election will make things even worse. Jazzer - say you get a 'new' administration tomorrow, you're still left with the same treasury, the same civil servants, the same OBR, the same think-tanks and advisors (many labour advisors are cross-party, Gauke for eg). The options are the same, no matter who's in power. Labour hasn't even changed the Tories' fiscal rules - the parties are virtually economically aligned these days.  But Reeves made a mistake in trying too hard, too early to make some seismic changes in her first budget as a big 'we're here and we're going to fix this mess, Labour to the rescue' kind of thing . They shone such a big light on the black hole that their only option was to try to fix it overnight. It was a comms clusterfuck.  They'd perhaps have done better sticking to Sunak's quiet, cautious approach, but they knew the gullible public was expecting an 24-hour turnaround miracle.  The NIC hikes are a disaster, I think they'll be reversed soon and enough and they'll keep trying till they find something that sticks.
