The Terraces chat thread....all the general footy talk..

all be honest here m8 celtic arent doing to good just now think we need a new manager.

Stoke fans are so fuckin fickle...!
Complaining like crazy on the forums when we're 9th in the league in only our second season and our form guide is, as you can see, pretty damned good...

My only little concern is our next match is Blackburn away, and take a look at their bloody home form..

Mind you, its gotta change sometime....

We played well away from home yesterday too, Dunn is on fire at the moment. Should make for an interesting game though Gaz.



Wigan are refunding the fans that went down to White Hart Lane yesterday, good of them.

Their chairman is a good'un though, ex Rovers player with a soft spot for the club ... so gives free pies to our away support every time we play there

Well, looking at your 5 previous away results you were due one mate....

I like Dunne, never fulfilled his potential for one so skilful though...

And yeah, good on Dave Whelan, he's a good lad, sacked Marlon Harewood and slags the team off when theyre shit, including individual players ( like his left back who got ass raped all afternoon by Lennon..)

He says its coming out of the players pockets too, which would be fully justified....

for TW lol

Dead Man Walking for a long time, same as Keane,Brown,Mowbray and Benitez..

They do indeed....one of...

Liverpool and Rangers say bye bye to the Champions League and hello to the mighty Europa Cup.........


EDIT- My mistake, Rangers say bye bye to all European competition....

Stoke boss Tony Pulis believes Matthew Etherington is a strong contender to force his way into England's World Cup squad.
Etherington has impressed for the Potters since joining from
West Ham in January, helping the club comfortably avoid the drop last
term.
The winger has been in fine form again this term with Stoke sitting comfortably in the top half of the Premier League table.
And Pulis believes a place in Fabio Capello's thoughts as he
moulds his final squad for the summer showpiece in South Africa would
be fully deserved.
Pulis said: "I don't think it's too late for Matty and England, he has got to be looked at.
"He has been outstanding and on a different level to anything I've seen since he joined us in January.
"It's not for me to tell Capello what to do or what not to do.
"The only thing I will say is Etherington has been excellent."



Aiden McGeady has admitted he would not pay to watch Celtic at the moment.
The Republic of Ireland winger, a lifelong Hoops fans, does not
blame supporters for staying away from Parkhead while the team are
struggling for form.
He said: "The fans want to watch good football and, the way we've been playing, that's just not happening.
"They're entitled to do what they want and, if I was in the same boat, I think I'd be doing the same.
"We've been playing really poorly and just grinding out the odd
result but we're really struggling. There have been a couple of matches
where we've played okay but we've struggled in the last three or four.
"I don't know the reason for that. We've got the same players we've had for the past two or three years."
Celtic have made their worst start to a season for a decade, winning only two of their last 10 games.
But McGeady insists manager Tony Mowbray is not to blame for the
slump, saying: "Any talk of putting time on the manager's head is
unfair.
"It's all new to him because he's never been in charge of Celtic before.
"It's a big job and I think he's taken to it well.
"Things can improve and he has to be given time."



Lee McCulloch has accused Rangers team-mate
Madjid Bougherra of disrespecting everyone at Ibrox with his most
recent failure to return from international duty on time.
The Algeria defender did not report back to his club as
scheduled last Friday after helping his country qualify for the World
Cup with a play-off triumph over rivals Egypt.
It was not the first the former Charlton player has
transgressed in this manner and manager Walter Smith left him out of
the side which beat Kilmarnock 3-0 at Ibrox on Saturday.
Bougherra was left on the bench last night as Rangers had their
European hopes ended for the season with a 2-0 home defeat in their
Champions League clash with Stuttgart.
In the build-up to the match Light Blues' striker Kenny Miller
criticised Bougherra, saying: "If you are given a time to come back,
you come back. It's as simple as that."
McCulloch was thinking along the same lines as he spoke after
the defeat by the German side which left Rangers bottom of Group G with
two points from five games and without even the consolation of a Europa
League place.
"It's not really for me to say but if it is the third time that
it has happened, and I honestly don't know if it is, then it's not good
enough," the Ibrox utility player said
"He's got to show a bit of respect to his fellow players and
show a bit of respect to the management and bit of respect to the fans.
"He has just come off a great result and is on a high from the World Cup.
"I'm not making excuses for him but I think if that was any Scottish player then there would be serious repercussions.
"We need all our best players and Madjid is one of our best
players. We need everybody fighting the same corner and going in the
same direction.
"He is not a problem in the dressing room, he is a quality player and we want him back as soon as possible.

A win tonight and we take our rightful place in the league ... above Burnley

I see Clint Dempsey is saying your lot wont bully em and they have some lads who'll get stuck in....

Dirrty dirrty Fulham, who'd have thunk it....

Samba will eat him alive

After a 3-0 defeat i take it Samba wasn't peckish tonight mate.......

Yeah, he had to go and score twice after his comments didn't he ...

I couldn't find a decent stream but by all accounts on the radio, we were actually the better team.

Our away form is gonna put is in real trouble if we dont sort it out. Just a good job there are a lot more poorer teams in the league this season.

both celtic and rangers are playing shit just now they wonder why they dident put us in the new league they were going on about.

Mark Lawrensons prediction:

Blackburn v Stoke
1-1


"This is probably a game where the ball will get stretchered off.

The aerial route will no doubt be examined and if I were a low-flying object, I'd probably stay away from Blackburn. "

Hahaha ... class!

Lets hope we surprise them all and have a 4-3 thriller ... to us ofcourse

Aberdeen 1-0 rangers
Celtic 3-1 St mirren


celtic 2 points in front for now, rangers have game in hand not a good week for rangers

Jimmy Bullards celebration ... gets the thumbs up from me

Good game yesterday Bee 0-0 draw but it looked a pretty tasty match, at one point I thought you were going to get it in the bag but we managed to hold you off......looking forward to the return match in Feb!
