Re: Postecoglou to Tottenham

Last word on Postecoglou from me- Well done for the recent treble, not forgetting the double the previous season. Five out of six is a brilliant achievement in any professional football league. He was brave enough to come to Celtic on his own (without backroom staff) and guide the staff and players ...

Re: Postecoglou to Tottenham

Good luck Ange and i hope you stick it up all the knockers Well said- too many want successful people to fall flat on their faces. I'm Celtic through and through and I am disappointed that Ange has decided to leave us for Tottenham but don't begrudge him for that, he is entitled to go where any job...

Re: Rangers v Celtic

Another year another Treble. Poor game though. Agree that Celtic were far from their fluent best but very difficult when Inverness packed all of their players behind the ball until the last ten minutes or so. No issue with them doing so as they were never going to play an open game of football. Tha...

Re: UEFA Europa League 22/23

Mourinho is a spoilt brat, he can't handle being second best. Shame as I used to like him in his early days but he has resorted to making big bucks by being a failure in his latter years. I get it that you have to be hungry for success but if you lose fairly (as was the case v Sevilla) have some res...

Postecoglou to Tottenham

If the rumour mill is true Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou will manage Celtic for the last time this weekend in the Scottish Cup Final v Inverness Caley Thistle, a game which should secure the treble and underline his dominance in Scottish football- winning no less than five out of six competitions com...

Only as good and as bad as the current season. Check out the league table. ;-)

If there was ever a perfect time to lose heavily to your biggest rivals that was the one.

It was sore at the time but history will only remember the double/potential treble.

Sevco touched up by Aberdeen. :clap: :clap: :clap: Celtic dropping points didn't look so bad after that. Just the kick up the backside that was required before the semi-final with Rangers. That said going by reports Motherwell put up one hell of a fight and probably deserved to scrape a point.
