SENTINELCELTS

Morning,all. This morning is a wee treat for us. A guest article from JIMBO67. ********* A few weeks ago, on this site The Gombeen Man (TGM) replied to a post…

It struck me that under Ange change is happening at a very fast pace. Given our propensity to be slow movers in recent times, the rate at which things are…

The news that John James had messed up the password to his site and inadvertently given last week’s scoop a wider audience, reminded me of that other scoop. Charlotte Fakes….

Morning,all. Tomorrow sees us host Morton in The Scottish Cup,the only domestic arrow still missing from AP’s quiver,with the very strange kick off time of 1215pm. And since,for a change,it…

Morning,all. The TWISTY Naps Competition has been a rattling good ride so far,and we are now entering the closing stages. Only ten weeks left of a forty week competition,truly a…

Morning,all. Last night was our chance for revenge against the only Scottish team to have beaten us this season,and also the last team to beat us domestically at home-and that…

Morning,all. It is a sad time for us as we remember the many happy days that Frank McGarvey gave us in just over five years at Celtic Park. The greater…

Celtic and The Rangers both won, there was controversy, VAR problems, I guess you could say it was a typical weekend for Scottish football.   Getting to a final is…

So Kyle Laugh-at-me is really fired up for today’s big cup clash. Raring to go, can’t wait, ‘the man’ is aiming to come back with a bang. Translated, he aims…

Morning,all. The title is,strictly speaking,inaccurate. Tomorrow’s match is actually the semi-final of the Scottish League Cup,or whatever name it goes by these days. But it IS the second match in…

Morning,all. JOBO brings us today’s article,with a view on how complicated the setting of a transfer fee can be. ~~~~~~ Bobby’s article on Tuesday concerning the possible departures of Juranovic…

Morning,all. Three months ago,I would have laughed in your face if you suggested to me that G-Mak and JJ looked set to leave the club in the January transfer window….

I’ve been loath to mention the recent referring controversies, that topic has been very well covered here and elsewhere. Yesterday has changed that.   Another Goldson handball, another biased decision,…

Regular readers will know by now my main bone of contention when it comes to the team. Midfield of course.   I subscribe to the long held theory that winning…

Morning,all. On the twelfth day of Christmas,BILLYBHOY sent to SC… ~~~~~~

So I wake up, read the blog upto kickoff time which reveals the team sheet, and go to work pondering the selection avoiding any opportunity for the result to filter…

Morning,all. It’s a rare thing to get a late equaliser at the bigotdome,yet still come away disappointed. But that pretty much summed it up for me-though the devil is in…

Firstly our deepest condolences go out to the Mc Garvey family. Every Celtic fan knows Frank’s name, he is synonymous with the club and his exploits for the team left…

Im delighted with the buildup to Monday’s top of the table clash.   Taking the timing into account, the extra rest should obviously suit the pressing team more.   The…

Morning,all. Watching Match of the Day on Monday night was a revelation for those of us who like to get our footballing fix via more agricultural methods,as regularly displayed north of the…

Morning,all. Prior to our return to league duty after the World Cup,I stated that I would be a very happy bunny indeed if we welcomed 2023 with a 100% record…

It’s the classic no brainer decision. Excuse me Sir, would you like to upgrade for the same price or maybe less? Ange,,,of course.   It was clever all around to…

As the year draws to a close those of a Celtic persuasion will sleep the easiest. Reinforced in numbers via another busy winter transfer window, reinforced on the park with…

I’ve come to realize something.   I was pondering this team of ours, and by that I mean the whole squad. I’ve written before this is the strongest squad I’ve…

Or-Former Rangers Target Lionel Messi Wins Argentina World Cup,as the headline to an article from Adam Miller @OldFirmFacts in The Herald claimed!~~~~~~Morning,all. I have no wish to blaspheme by using…

It was always about the win. After such a long lay off some sense of familiarity was going to be lost, momentum there to be picked up again not simply…

Morning,all. JOBO has helpfully compiled a list of the worst VAR “errors” to go against us. Feel free to add to the list during future matches! (Edit for clarification from…

I’m still finding it hard to wrap my head around this winter world cup and the subsequent knock on effects on the SPL. Just when we would usually be wrapping…

Morning,all. With the return of real fitba now on the horizon,it seems that my fervent wish for Celtic to use the last five weeks to turn the screw on the…

I’ve become increasingly aware that when you reach a certain level the game is decided on it’s big moments, specifically which team takes advantage of them.   It’s the managers…
