Champions League: AC Milan vs CELTIC, 18th September 19:45 kick off, live on SS2

Its the Champions League...enjoy it....embrace your *

Milan 0 - 0 Hooperydoos .

 

2-2 I reckon.

Samaras with a header from a Mulgrew corner to make it 1 nil after 20 minutes.

Milan get one back straight away and then go ahead just after the break.

We are all over the place for 20 minutes or so- Keep giving the ball away, can't string two passes together, 6 yard box madness- Forster is back to his best though and pulls off some world class saves.

We settle again around the 70 minute mark and create a couple of great opportunities but we waste them, and it looks like we'll regret it.

Then up pops Commons with a screamer in the 82nd minute.

Then we defend stoically for the remainder of the game with a couple of heart in mouth moments and a wasted opportunity from Ambrose right at the death- headers over the bar from six yards from another great Mulgrew corner.

All in we'll be happy with the draw but feel slightly gutted that we didn't take our chances to win the game.

 

Paddy power is some joke, tony watt 10/1 to get the first goal... aye * off

 

Just read there that within this years competition we have the most domestic trophies out of every team, no reason to fear anyone , could probably say we are most decorated club in this years competition as well I'm guessing!, Bring on Milan!

 

It's weird though. Frankly I don't enjoy it. In the days leading up to the CL games you're nervous as *, can't concentrate at work etc etc, then the actual games are torture.

It's the memories that make it all worthwhile...but that comes after.

 

Excited more than anything else, most of the world would expect us to go there and get beat so the pressure is slightly off. Considering their poor league start and their injuries, if there's ever a chance of beating milan at the san siro, it's tomorrow.

 

No mate they have a fantastic support, its just that in some countries fans dont come out for early competition games, nothing to do with a poor support. Put it this way, say Celtic had won the European Cup 7 times, the Intercontinental Cup 4 times, the European Super Cup 4 times, the CWC twice and the UEFA Cup twice i reckon our fan base would stay at home for early rounds of Euro Comps and start coming out in numbers when things hot up as in the Q/F, S/F and Finals.

 

I think it's more of an italian thing not to bother with the group stages more than anything else.

 

Loovens hair is very nice, Loovens is my gay da.


Brilliant hahaha.

 

Pretty vague prediction.

 

I would really like to know what is up with all the Loovens tags.. Glendas been gone for like a year now

 

I don't expect anything from the away games. I'm only nervous as this is a great opportunity to get some points away from home with all Milan 's injury problems. Do I feel sorry for them? No. They spend more on one player than we do in total in three windows. They cannot hide behind their injury list as they should have the quality to compete regardless of who they field. It's the same scenario if we had a huge injury list and we were playing Hibs at home. I'd still expect to win.

Knowing us, we'll make hard work of it (someone will let them into or keep them in the game). They're there for the taking though and we have nothing to lose.

 

Going to be a long day at work today! * buzzing tonight , would bite your hand off for a draw right now.

 

Mon the Hoops! A draw would be magic

 

Have a good feeling about the game today.

 

I think we could sneak a win tonight. It would be an amazing result.

 

Aw *, you've spoiled it
No point it sitting up to watch it now :smiley-laughing002:

 

Got a 5er 1-0 commons fgs.

I'm feeling strangly confident about this game.

 

Samaras to score anytime 6/1, I'll be having some of that!

Would give my left * for a draw, will be happy with a decent performance tonight. Buzzing for it though!

 

Milan only won 5 of last 18 home games in CL
