Morning,all. Not our best of weekends just gone,as has widely been commented on. Not from me though-I just left it alone. One of those days,etc,how much more crap in our…

I honestly thought the questions surrounding the manager were answered in the main, but yesterday threw a complete spanner in the works. Yesterday, we looked like a Neil Lennon team…

Are we a good team or not?It’s a stones throw away from October with the early nights and cold weather arriving, yet I’m still stumped on what kind of team…

Morning,all. Bloody hell,it isn’t easy being a Celtic supporter,is it? Two up against one of the top sides in Spain,easy street. Then ASWGL supplied me a link to the game!…

Morning,all. After another seven days of soap opera at our great club-preceded no doubt by some considerable time spent on rehearsals and casting,as well as trying to make sure that…

36 years ago – Friday 13th September, 1985 was Jock Stein’s funeral. The Big Man was taken far too soon, but he was doing something he dearly loved to do…

Things are getting strained in Intellectual Corner. There are pictures, photographs, paintings on the walls, off the walls;  they don’t stay in one shape, one set of colours, one size….

That’s the buzzword, that’s the go to line, that Dominic was incompatible. It’s notable that only one of the parties briefed against the other, the party with scruples enough to…

Most of us probably recall where we were on this day in 2001. Twenty years ago today most of the civilized world gazed in horror at The Twin Towers collapse,…

Morning,all. As I said yesterday,it’s good to be a Tim.  More accurately perhaps,good to be a Celtic supporter. Four years ago,the citizens of Lisbon could not believe that around 7000…

Morning,all. I originally started this article as a response to a post from MAGUA at 545 yesterday. It grew legs,and grew into the article to follow. Nothing wrong with that,of…

130 years ago … 1891 and it‘s Tuesday and a free midweek. The match reports from the previous Saturday’s league win at Celtic Park versus Renton (4th league game of…

Morning,all. It is definitely a rarity during an international window for this site to actually discuss international football; even more so for me to make it the topic of an…

I hate International breaks, but I’ll tell you who won’t be feeling that way,,why none other than Ange Postecoglou, a Celtic legend in the making.   After that defeat, and…

Morning,all. Football has long been a haven for the nastier side of human behaviour,the type that hides in the shadows and only shows its face when in large groups of…

Morning,all. Wednesday morning was our chance to reflect on an important and very busy transfer window,as we waved farewell to a number of our “top performers” over the last few years…

As windows go, I doubt we shall ever see bigger folks, and if we do, things have gone pear shaped.Midway through last season many of us saw the writing on…

120 years ago … 1901 and on this day (Sunday) the team are on a rest day, having defeated Third Lanark in a league match at Celtic Park (yesterday). The…

Morning,all. If I’m honest,Sunday’s match didn’t really tell us much that we didn’t know before. We already knew that the team was in need of a serious rebuild across practically…

Yesterday a work in progress suffered a blip. It happens everyday, and it just happened to be our turn. Its not particularly pleasant, but its not catastrophic either and in…

The week started very well with the Tims rubbing hands, two sixes in a row, playing slick, and having the momentum despite the derby being away in front of zero…

Morning,all. Wee Fergus reminded us many moons ago that it is not always easy to be a Celtic supporter-but it is always rewarding. Well,last night proved that in spades! I…

Morning,all. I can remember the good old days when Thursday was a day of rest after our latest midweek game,a day when we renewed our energies for the usual riotous…

130 years ago – and on this day (Tuesday) in 1891, the players are recovering from a fantastic league victory over current ( sic) league champions (joint) Rangers. The press…

Morning,all. Six games and counting since we all threw ourselves off a cliff nearly three weeks ago. A home draw and away defeat in the Champions League saw us turfed…

No, not just their title ambitions, I mean actually sinking ’em, sticking our foot for their neck and crushing that curse of a club once and for all.   I…

How many goals shall we score? That’s now my overriding thought approaching every game, not just some.It’s bloody fantastic!Under Lenny two goals and shut it down seemed the norm, allied…

A real goal scoring machine, in a Celtic career spanning the best part of 20 years. Quiet shy and never seeking the limelight, Bobby Lennox was a tremendous player who…

Morning,all. The AP revolution continues! Last night saw Celtic give one of our best displays in Europe for some considerable time,beating a very good AZ Alkmaar side by two goals…

120 years ago – 1891/92 was shaping up to be a pivotal season. The club had already made a huge impact on the game in Scotland, having contested a Scottish…

Morning,all. As we’ve mentioned before on here-often!-it is far too early to get carried away with the recent improvement in our performances,even if that improvement has been massive. MAHE pointed…

That’s the most important thing, being only three games from silverware at the conclusion. Silverware which Ange could do with around March to hopefully energize the troops as they approach…

I’m very suspicious when senior players with zero sell on value publicly announce an allegiance to the club.Of course most tend to be Scottish and Irish, though there is the…

Morning,all. Last night’s result might have looked,at first glance,as a somewhat perfunctory one-given that we were two up from the first leg. Don’t be fooled. This was a very good…

I hope you’ll forgive me, since it’s a Celtic themed blog, but I thought I’d skip my usual Celtic player tribute for a change and turn to my favourite player…

100 years ago…..1921/22 was a pivotal season and the resetting of the ‘natural order’ of Scottish fitba was required… ( Aye…It’s really all about context Mister Levein!) In 1919 Celtic…

Morning,all. After the general gloom of the last two years or so as we witnessed a spiral into mediocrity,few of us were optimistic heading into the new season. Most were…

First of all I thank each and everyone of the hardy souls who braved the elements to attend the fan protest. The weather never dampened their spirits, the speeches were…

The writing has been on the wall for a long time but this week finally announced it, this current iteration of the beautiful game is a failed model. Just like…

First of congratulations must go out to Kyogo Furuhashi for his dream full debut for the bhoys. He looks a player, a snip at that price, and as one poster…

There is a myth that appears from time to time that the Celtic Board cannot be held accountable at all and that at AGMs any resolution not of the Boards…

Morning,all. This site has been saying for some time that there was an enormous rebuild ahead,with an entire team needing signed-either as first team ready or as back up. The…

130 years ago… 1891 we prepare for a momentous season for the ‘new’ club. Tomorrow (4th) will see a visit to Greenock for a pre-season ‘friendly’ against Morton at Cappielow….

Morning,all. Not the best weekend I’ve ever experienced,what with one thing and another. Should have seen the writing on the wall right away when I saw the refereeing appointments. Draw…

So Griff got booed. Wouldn’t have been everyone there but it was clearly audible over the airwaves, the Tims booed one of their own team at home for off field…

For a suave jailbird with only bluster left, then yes.For a world famous football club it’s flabbergasting.   The fact we are a bare bones operation has been displayed for…

Morning,all. Abject. Awful. Pitiful. Tragic. Just a few of the words that posters used last night to describe our performance over the two legged tie against Danish giants Midtjylland. Out of…

Morning,all. So it seems that we have finally been made an offer for I Wanna which the club deems as at the very least a starting point for negotiations. As…

110 years ago- The close season 1911 had parallels with the present day…The halcyon days of ‘6 in a row’ are over, and any hopes of a ‘Seven’ are dashed…

Morning,all. Saturday was that rare occurrence for some of us,but by no means a rare one recently-a sobering event! If it isn’t covid restrictions denying us access to the pub,it’s…
