Was buzzing for that tonight but a pitch like that can be a real leveller in games like this.

Hopefully works out for us in the long run. A free midweek to get energy levels back up isn’t the worst thing either.

Derek McInnes being an emotional wreck and charging our dugout was not a good look.

The real pressure part of the season is still a month or so off(last 8 games) and calls for calm heads.

Something McInnes doesn’t have.

Celtic: Monday to Friday.
Tomas Cvancara may not be the answer to all our prayers, but he does fulfil a much needed role.

Why are we just seeing this KT on in swinging corners thing.

What a ball that was.

Superb from the starting back 4 tonight. That’s a few of those in Europe for Trusty.

There are no words that can truly describe the mess Celtic have got themselves into.

Nothing can describe just how inept we are at recruitment.

What an absolute gift this will be for Hearts or Rangers if we lose it.

Someone remind me. Is this the interim or permanent manager?

It’s a matter of when now.

Donovan has to start going forward.

He’s performed well in two Europa games away from home.

He can handle our domestic fixtures and has a far higher ceiling than Ralston.

Great frame for the position and a nice knack of timing in the tackle.

Quick one on last night’s game.

Writing for Read Celtic just now. It’s a change in tone from my usual substack approach but a learning curve in covering games quickly.

Was on the bus this morning typing away.

Not quite one foot in the knockouts but things look a lot brighter this morning.

Roll on Roma.

Maswanhise at it again.

We will need to buy 2/3 right wingers over the next two windows.

Decent place to start.

Never been a massive fan of a back 3 but best get used to it. Will be interesting to see it applied or adapted to play against low blocks 80% of the time.

An intriguing appointment to say the least.

Is Donovan injured? If not, it’s quite strange to leave him out the squad and shoehorn JSP in at RB.

Anything above bottom 6 in the league and Ralston is out his depth.

He was dreadful on Sunday but this is another level. He’s so scared to put his foot in.

Big Trusty looked the part today. Playing on the right isn’t ideal for him but that was a good performance.

More power through the spine of the team with him, Engels and Kenny playing.
