    Was quite impressed with kenny shiels in the studio. Talked sense from the bits I saw.

    I agree with that.

    It looks like more and more teams are looking to play football.

    I went to the Falkirk v Ross County game on boxing day. Falkirk dominated throughout but lost a 94th minute goal for a 1-1 draw.

    Falkirk are probably the better footballing side but I think they sometimes can get bullied by more physical teams in the first division.

    didnt see the game but listening to lennon on the sportsound podcast. he is not happy with izzy. was he really that bad?

    the hairy hun has stated that the two big decisions went celtic's way and would not have been given at the other end. I would argue the biggest decision was the disallowed goal. obviously chico pulled him up about this <whistle>

    For the goal, yeah.

    But then Victor and Cha were culpable as well. I remember listening to Ray Hougton talking about Torres coming back from injury at Liverpool. He said he'd get through the first game back no problem on adrenaline. After that, it takes a good bit of time to get sharp again.

    It just looks a bit like that at the minute for Izzy.

    Pressley got it wrong big time, no doubt it was a penalty, no doubt that Celtic had a perfectly good goal stroked off and two or three hand balls by Falkirk in their box.
    I think he should have been thanking the officials for keeping the score down.

    Just another thought, Scot Brown has really demonstrated his use as captain, last week a wonderful pass and a brilliant finish lifted us out of a tight spot. Yesterday he, knowing our problems with penalties all year, as soon as penalty was awarded he took on the responsibility and blasted the ball home with no delay. Every good team needs a good leader and in Scot we have one.

    100% agree with you on this one. He's been immense since he came back from his injury, glad he signed that new deal as well.

    The Huns will be sick in May when he's lifting the SPL trophy.

    Celtic are like crack cocaine.

    You give some **** a shniff of the goods and to borrow a phrase from the green brigade, they "just can't get enough".

    It's a tough league !!! Saw your team live on the telly last week , that team is top of a league !!! With Celtic rejects just shows you how bad that the championship really is, you English come on here demeaning our game , while your epl standards drop every week , look at Man utd England top team depending on two 38 year olds , I would be confident Celtic young team Beating any team in England at the moment bar Man City and Stoke ( our footballers at the back couldn't cope with hoof ball )
