Beach Balls CSC


BTW, Celtic looked like shit yesterday against Legia Warsaw. Kenny Miller looked handy and Aiden McGeady was MOTM......other than that......


Petrov NEEDS to leave NOW. He was ****ing moaning all game yesterday and the sooner he leaves the better for everyone involved. Get 4 million for him and move on, Mr. Strachan.

What's the deal with all the beach balls? Thought they could've donated them to all the little Scottish children around the world... until that big bad man began stabbing them.

I didn't even know about that, Bluenose.


Celtic were pumped again today 2 - 0 by Wikla Krakow or something like that. It was Zurawski's old team. Started the game with reserves and everyone played like reserves except for Jarosik. He was quality. Again, why they continue to play Petrov is beyond me. He doesn't give a shit.

If Strachan plans on a 4 - 5 - 1 like he did today, it is going to be a long season. Having said that, it is only pre-season and they still have 7 more ****ing games..........

I see the Huns were playing their brother Huns in Belfast. I'm sure that was lovefest with a great family atmosphere.

2-0 Gers over dreadful Linfield.
Why play rubbish competition to start the season?
Didn't see the game, but apparently Burkey and Buffel put on a show in the Gers new fantastic away kit. Rodrigues was class as well.

I did see the Sellick loss today, but I know you Cappy, of all people, are just as hard on the Tic as anyone else, and I knew you'd bring it up.

Chesney has to get Petrov tae Fcuk asap...He will spoil the whole team if he is left to languish there agianst his will...

Still waiting for Clement to committ....

Burke was carried off injured too........Fantastic new away kit? You're having a laugh. The Celtic '3rd strip' is ****ing shocking I have to admit but the 2nd strip(away in the SPL) is smart.


Celtic were outplayed easily today. Both Polish teams were handy. Today though, Celtic created NOTHING which is always a concern. 4-5-1 will do that to a team. Ask Portugal. Right, Franchise?

4-5-1 can create if you have decent wingers.
Celtic has no decent wingers.
Clement signed on today, 21 year old Left footed starlet from Lyon.
With him on the left, Bazza and Ricksen or Rae in the middle and Sionko or Burkey out wide right, LeGuen can run Buffel around free role and have Prso or Boyd up front.
Celtic doesn't have that quality. Fact. Especially after Petrov Leaves.

Nice one. Thanks for the laugh to start the day. Doesn't have that kind of quality? Ricksen/Bazza/Rae. Good stuff.

As for Clement.....here are some stats that will bring the fear of God into all Celtic fans and players..















That's about as much as he has played in the last 3 seasons.........





After watching Simon Ferry in the first two games, this kid is a cracker and don't be surprised to see him playing in the middle when we finally get rid of the cry baby........

Nakamura/Maloney/Ferry/Jarosik/McGeady...........I'd take that over the Huns midfield.......

Portugal had decent wingers and created the square root of **** all.

PMSL, Clement was at Lyon. He is 21.
LeGuen rates him, which means something.
Apparently he was after Elmander, who has signed for Toulose today...On to other options....

The Sellick Midfield is NOT as good as Rangers, wait till the season starts.

Sorry you fcuking Dutch cnut fanny baws.......


Clement has played a total of 9 league games in 3 years..........Of course if Le Wank rates him he has to be one of the best players in the world, right?


I'm looking forward to this season. At least Rangers might be more competitive this year and not finish 2 places and 19 points behind........
