Can you help with: Celtic Teams of Yesteryear!

One of the threads tonight got me thinking. Having supported Celtic for thirty years or so, it's frustrating/amazing to think of some of the players who we never discuss / forget about.

To that extent, I'd kindly ask you to help me roll back the years and identify the Celtic Team of the Year for, well as long as we can go back really.

Everybody remembers the Larssons, Lubo's Mcstays etc but what about the other unsung heroes: The Rogan's, the Morris's, the Elliot's

And what about the other's: The Annoni's, The Slater's, The McGugans!

If we can start to list these teams, it might jog a few memories and some good stories? I deally it would be teams that you watched of course.

So, what do you think? I'll start, and make it easy, by doing last years.

11 First Teamers, 3 subs (1 DF, 1 MF, 1 FW

2007
Boruc, Wilson, Caldwell, McManus, Naylor, Naka, Brown, Hartley, McGeady, Jan, Skippy

Subs
Kennedy, Robson, Miller

Who can do another team? Doesn't need to be in any particular order. How far back can we go?

 

2003 (seville team)
Douglas
Mjallby
Balde
Valgaeren
Agathe
Petrov
Lennon
Lambert
Thompson
Larsson
Sutton

 

Boruc, Telfer, Balde, McManus, Wilson, Nakamura, Petrov, Lennon, Maloney, Zurawski, Hartson

Strachan's first Championship-winning eleven

 

NIce, so that's 2005 then.

The Telf!

Mind you have the option of subs if you wann'em

 

That's a * awesome team. Petrov was just a marvellous player.

 

In the opening post - what season are you refering to the last one or two seasons ago?

Either way you cant have Robson and Miller on the bench - they never played in the same team.

If you are talking about last season Sammy should be in place of Miller.

 

Gould, Boyd, Stubbs, Rieper, Mahe?, MacNamara, Burley, Lambert, Weighorst/O'Donnell. Larsson, Donnelly/Brattbakk

 

Can't remember who was on the bench

 

'95 Cup-winning side:

Starting 11

Bonner, Vata, Boyd, McNally, McKinley, McLaughlin, Grant, Maestro, Collins, Donnelly, Van Hoojidonk.

O'Donnell and Falconer were subs.


My first Cup Final. I mind me and a few of my mates being in tears at full time!

 

Last season mate. Maybe I'm not being clear though, just the players who you think were the mnainstays of that season. They don't need to have played together if you don't want to.

And if you do, that's fine too. I just want to see some of the old names up here and stir some memories..

 

Big Marc! Solid. As. *.

Mahe. An old firm psychopath:icon_mrgreen:

Wee Harold will always have a place in my heart

What year was this again mate?

Maybe we should put who was managing the teams too?

 

Yeah thats my point - Miller was hardly a mainstay last season - played two maybe three games!!

 

I don't want to be cheeky but you seriously don't know which year this was our team??

 

I'm liking this thread

love street 1986

Bonner, McGrain, Whyte, Franz McGugan, Aitken. . Burns, Grant, McStay, McLeod, Johnstone, Chalkey = (goals goals goals)

 

Hampden 1989

Bonner Morris Rogan McCarthy Whyte McStay Grant Aitken Fulton McGhee Miller. . .super Joe Miller

*edit : Gary Stevens was playing in the hole

 

I've an more-than-rough idea it's probably the "stop 10-IAR" side.

But I couldn't offhand remember the year it was.

Sorry

 

Team who sealed the Millenium Treble

Douglas, Mjallby, Vega, Valgaeren, Agathe, Lambert, Lennon, Lubo, Thompson, Sutton, Larsson

Subs: Gould, Stubbs, McNamara, Boyd, Johnson

 

Clever

 

Season 1974,

unsure slightly about the keeper ,it was either ,evan williams or connaghan
Davie Hay -Billy Mcneil-John Brogan - Ian murray.
Tommy Callaghan-Kenny Dalglish -George Connolly-Jimmy Johnstone.
Harry Hood-Dixie Deans

 

Some great memories here lads. Keep it up!

Even to see that team in '74, laid out by someone who has seen them live, is terribly exciting to me.

Can you tell us something about one of the lesser known players in that team mate?
