Lucky number is 7 for Celtic

By: Matt | Comments No Comments

Celtic announced their return to form today by putting a whopping seven goals in ninety minutes against a 10 men St. Mirren team. The dominating victory keeps Celtic even with Rangers on points in the SPL race, after Rangers squeaked by James McCarthy and Hamilton today, but puts Celtic within striking distance of Rangers [...]

Title Restart

By: Matt | Comments 3 Comments

So after pissing away a seven point lead, Celtic start this weekend even on points in the league with Rangers, despite sharing the honors with them in the three matches played, winning one, losing one, and drawing one. Rangers technically lead the league on goal differential, having handed Hamilton and Caley servings of humble [...]

Oh thank goodness, a place for poor Derm and Petey to spend their cash

By: Matt | Comments 7 Comments

Happy Fat Tuesday to all the Timothy’s out there, as tomorrow will start a “fasting” period for many of you. By God, do I love me some fried fish and cannot wait to head to my local parish here for some fish fry tomorrow and Friday. I am not very religious, but I [...]

Lawwell: “Take our money, please!”

By: Matt | Comments 11 Comments

The Sunday Mail came out with an article yesterday where Peter Lawwell insisted that Celtic were not being cheap in the January transfer window, but rather that no one wanted to sell. Lawwell said, “We had targets and moved for them but for a variety of reasons it didn’t happen. As can be [...]

WGS Has Lost It

By: Matt | Comments 15 Comments

First, I’d like to apollogize for no match preview for the Motherwell game. A combination of technology not cooperating and a busy weekend prevented me from constructing one, but in reality all it would have been was me sharing my man crush for Mark McGhee, my belief that he should be the next manager [...]

Celtic 0-Rangers 0: Pillow not included.

By: Matt | Comments 6 Comments

Well, that was a restful 90 minutes. Nothing like a little game of keep away in front of 60,000 people to help get me to sleep at 730 in the AM. After a miserable night of hacking up a lung due to an epic outbreak of the flu on the University of Dayton [...]

Biggest Game of the Season pt. 3

By: Matt | Comments 9 Comments

Yet again, we here the pundits (does that include me?) telling us that the biggest fixture of the SPL season is upcoming this weekend. Celtic sit a mere two points ahead of Rangers, from what was a seven point lead after defeating their cross town rivals in their last match up. The winner [...]

Midweek Derby News

By: Matt | Comments 1 Comment

So yet again, Celtic faces the prospect of “the most important match of the season” (the third one it seems…how many can you have in a season?), and of course the Scottish media is full of controversy. Surely it’s a coincidence that it is all being reported the week of Celtic’s match against Rangers, [...]

Two first half goals enough for Cup progression/Would you score on your favorite team?

By: Matt | Comments 3 Comments

Celtic progressed to the quarter finals of the Scottish Cup through the strength of two first half goals by Gary Caldwell and Scott McDonald. Queen’s Park made things interesting in the second half when they got a goal back in the 67th minute, but the home side were able to fight off their lower [...]

Naka and Skippy to log frequent flyer miles

By: Matt | Comments 5 Comments

The 5th round of the Homecoming Scottish Cup (or as I like to call it, The Scottish Scottish Cup) sees Celtic take on lower division minnows Queen’s Park. In all accounts, it should be an easy win for Celtic and progression through to the next round, but then again, a trip to play relegation [...]
