Arsenal 3-Celtic 1

By: Matt | Comments 11 Comments

I understand that Arsenal were well on there way to the win, and easily cruised after Eduardo did his Greg Luganis impression. Some points must be made on this shameful display. First of all, if I was a Arsenal fan, I would be EMBARRASSED if a player on my club first performed such [...]

“The Battle of Britain”

By: Matt | Comments 14 Comments

Be prepared to read that headline for the next few weeks…a lot. The S*n, they’ve probably trademarked that slogan already. The Daily Ranger? Oh yeah, they’ll be wearing out the “b” key on their press. The Herald, The Times, etc. You bet. As there were only two teams from [...]

Your basic rundown of the game, your highlights (are they still up or have the fun police come yet?), and your pure unadulterated joy of finally winning a match away from Celtic Park in the Champions League.

The Treble, You are On Notice!

By: Matt | Comments 7 Comments

Well Celtic Fans, I’ve got good news and bad news. Let’s get the bad out of the way, shall we? Celtic pretty much ended any chance of European Competition after Christmas by losing 2-1 in Denmark yesterday against Aalborg. Barry Robson was able to put Celtic up in the 53rd minute, but [...]

Celtic take a point from Man U

By: Matt | Comments 6 Comments

Remember remember the fifth of november…I’ll remember being pissed that Celtic drew Manchester United. Celtic had the current European Champions on the ropes for 83 minutes but could not deliver the knockout punch, or if we want to use a proper boxing metaphor Celtic could not run around the ring and avoid getting punched [...]

Undermanned Celtic no match for United

By: Matt | Comments 8 Comments

It was always going to be a tough task getting points at Old Trafford, given Celtic’s away history and United’s class, but things were not helped when four key Celtic players missed the match due to injury. For all of these reasons, Manchester United was able to defeat Celtic 3-0 on matchday 3 of [...]
