    You must have watched a different game to me then. They had two shots from long range, one from Bangura that was comfy for Forster, and one wonderstrike that hit the bar. And apart from that, they caused us absolutley no problems whatsoever. I'm not saying that this is a game we will definitely win, but we should have enough about us to at least score and avoid conceding 3. They are a worse team than Helsingorg fielded against us last year in my opinion.

    Why did the Elfsborg supporters boo Bangura at the weekend?

    Was it not the AIK supporters who booed him because he played for them?

    Ha. Ha. Ha. No, but I saw enough of them last year, and Swedish football as a whole, to know that they shouldn't be a problem to defeat. :50:

    It was AIK fans and it was because he used to play for them. I think Elfsborg and AIK are rivals.

    Gutted derk is out, his pace wouldve been a big help. Nervous about tomorrow but still confidant.

    Got a bad feeling about this to be honest.

    Not that that means anything at all :smiley-laughing002: If Boerrigter was fit I'd be a lot more confident. Think we might struggle to break them down again.

    Nothing to be worried about.

    Celtic will be 15-0 up by half-time even if we put our reserve side out and Elfsborg are just a Sunday league team who know they're going to get beat and will barely even show up. We'll give those silly Swedes one * of a beating and Mo Bangura will never dare look askance at a Celtic badge again.

    Did I mention Elfsborg are * and they know they are?

    ...

    At least that's the sense you get reading some of the comments on this thread.

    Personally, I'm with you. I'm not pessimistic, but I don't think it's going to be an easy game at all.

    I'm majorly nervous for this, I keep having re-runs of the Helsingborgs game in my head. We rode our luck in that game big time, I think people forget how under the cosh we were. Elfsborg are a better side, despite not being in the best form and this will be their Cup Final....at home....on astroturf. Add to that the fact Wilson's head has been turned and Sammy isn't 100% and on paper it starts to look that bit tougher.

    I hope I'm just being cautious but it won't be easy.

    The astroturf wont make a difference celtic train on 1 of them daily and to be honest i think we play well on them, we have done really well over the years on them hammer, spartak twice??? helsinborgs and helsinki infact a dont think av seen us get beaten on 1 before, and i agree with you we did ride our luck at times last year and i expect a tough game.:50:

    We have a GREAT record on astroturf pitches in Europe.

    Even back in the Strachan days when we couldn't do a thing away in Europe we got a 1-1 draw against Spartak Moscow away.

    Nervous for this game too.Would be a lot more happy with a couple of goal lead going over there.If we get an early goal i reckon there would be no way back for Elfsborg,plus i could relax and enjoy the game.:icon_mrgreen:
