[Official TC Thread] UEFA Champions League Third Qualifying Round 1st Leg - Celtic v Rosenborg, 26/7/17, 7:45pm.

no way were going thru after that.no spare striker ffs. awful.flat side to side and repeat. no penetration even if we had dembele and griff on. but i bet you griff will drag us through tie another scarf and miss the next game lol.seriously though we could easily have been 2 nil down.

 

We were always going to have to score over there anyway.

 

Poor perfermance,badly missed Griff/Dembele but still all to play for.Rosenberg will be more open at home and we'll have more chances on goal.Was like playing a well organised Scottish team with 10 men behind the ball,they won't get away playing like that at home.Score draw or win and we're through.

 

Well said. Their match sharpness and our lack of a striker turned into a big advantage for them, yet they still couldn't capitalise on it.

 

Ah well.

Hopefully we have enough next week.

 

* raging, feel good factor at the club has gone for me. Not down to the players performances but the * board.

Wish i had your optimism...* * that was painful to watch

 

It's not naive. The strikers we want to improve us might not be available until we qualify.

The strikers we have should be more than enough, nobody could foresee us losing one to injury and another to suspension.

 

Was the wrong decision to ban 900 fans from the match .... They should have just banned the gb leadership cut the head off the snake they all fall in line * up big time especially with their reasoning behind it

That's because Griff was in the stand mate! Only listened to it but sound like we dodged a bullet! Still confident we'll get a score draw over there.

 

Terrible. Not impressed with board either. We scraped through last season and came 4th, now this season we try and scrape through again? Just coz it works the odd year.

Oh and banning out vocal support in our most important home game helps.

 

At least they didn't get an away goal.keep the faith HH

 

Desperately need quality on the wings..

 

Luckily Rosenberg never took the chances that came their way so all to play for over their not sure if having no striker on helped them, will need to improve upfront next week and create some chances

 

First time I have had question marks about Brendan.Keeps Forrest on ? His head looked full of the GB tonight. Totally distracted.

 

Dundalk got a

Dundalk got a 1-1 over there, more than capable of at least that.

 

First and only shot at goal in the 77th minute ...absolute joke

 

well Peter ...banning the GB for tonights game was a stroke of genius eh

 

We walk away very lucky, They came with a plan and stuck to it, they did it very well. We made it easy for them to defend, maybe having no striker helped them. The worrying thing is the lack of chances created and shots on target. Granted they are 17 games into their season and looked sharper than us but we were slow all over the pitch and too many sideway passes. No investment in another striker at this level is just stupidity, maybe that performance will allow Rodgers to go to the board and expect some signings.

 

Team is too predictable, works in the SPL not against better opposition in Europe, side to side happy *, so slow and lethargic build up to nothing, garbage and frustrating to watch to be honest. We have made it difficult for ourselves now, after that performance I see them going through unless a completely different Celtic team shows up in Norway.

 

Rosenborg will be kicking themselves that they never put tie outta sight tonight.

They'll be very confident winning at home though.
