    Comment from Celtic Football Club: “We are extremely surprised by this statement and the timing of the release." 1/3


    This is clearly not our understanding of the situation and we stand by our statement of 23rd June." 2/3


    We feel there is nothing to be gained by commenting further until the tie has been played.” 3/3

    The celtic media side of things has went a bit mental the last few days, that statement came from no were and never even said what it was about, dont no were gerry mc has went either, he has went missing from snapchat and twitter, and never done the interview with the new guy.

    Malmo only drew 1-1 at home to Vardar from Skopje.

    Beer Sheva with a 2-1 win at home to Honved.

    2 possible upsets.

    Rosenborg have been terrible so far, Dundalk deservedly ahead

    Beer Sheva were 2-5 and Honved 8-1 one mate so I don't think many would have been shocked by that one.

    The shock would be the away goal, Honved would have taken 2-1 before the game.

    Both themselves and Malmo would have expected to come through comfortably. BATE only drew 1-1 at home to Alshkert too.

    Rosenborg have just equalised, atrocious defending at a set-piece from Dundalk.

    It finished 1-1 between Dundalk and Rosenborg, Rosenborg are even more average than I thought. Celtic would have few fears against either.
    I see Ludogorets of Bulgaria lost in Lithuania as well, a lot of teams making hard work of what seemed like straight forward ties; Beer Sheva, BATE, Ludogorets, Malmo, APOEL, Sheriff.
    First competitive game for a few of those sides, which is why we can't be complacent on Friday.

    I would be extremely surprised if we are complacent on Friday.

    Likewise, I am merely highlighting the dangers. I would also consider us to be better than all the sides I mentioned.

    Anyone know why we have jumped down to 60 odd in the new method of UEFA rankings?

    Our CL Last 16 season got took off now this season has started.

    They are irrelevant now really though as they are changing next season. In reality we will be 53rd at the moment for next season as it stands not 64th as they have it the now because they are moving to the club part only counting the country part will only come into play if 2 teams have the same points.

    You can see how it will really look next season here https://kassiesa.home.xs4all.nl/bert/uefa/data/method5/trank2018.html

    Bert's site is great for keeping abreast of the changes that go on down at UEFA alright. The ultimate site for football geeks!
