Non Monumental Moments Why You Loved a Player

Marc Crosas going ape * running into the crowd when Sammy scored his first against Sevco at the Bigotdome. Showed his genuine love for the club even though he never got given a chance. HERO

 

I think it might have been the Motherwell game where wee James Forrest ran absolute riot.

Another one about Sammy has to be after the first 60,000 man Huddle against Motherwell when we beat them 4-0 to lose the league. He just stood there; hands on hips looking round at the fans absolutely gobsmacked and gave a round of applause after it.

You can tell he absolutely loves Celtic. I'm very happy for the way he's turned his form around.

 

I know it has been posted, but the Di Canio/McKinlay free kick

My mate and I recreated it the next game we played, I volleyed it and scored! Cause you know that is just how I roll.

Great thread this.

 

andreas thoms winner against dundee united in 95 SCQF at parkhead,we were 1 0 down with a minute to go,big pierre levelled and thom scored a cracker,a lot of bhoys from belfast left early,the brother and myself stayed on,the abuse we give them on the bus and boat home was truly MONUMENTAL and deserved

 

Bourc for everything he went through he just wouldn't give in on blessing himself loved him for that. Also mcgeady when he shoved novo(*) to get the ball for the throw in which was took and resulted in JOH scoring the winner in the 2-1 game

 

After we got beat at the Nou Camp in 08, Sammy was the only player to stay after the final whistle and clap the fans as every other player went up the tunnel. He only just signed a couple of weeks earlier aswell.

 

I remember at the Clyde game (Roy Keane and Du Wei's debut where they pumped us 2-1 out of the Scottish Cup) and Du Wei was having an absolute stinker.

This guy a few seats away just got up and shouted:

"* sake Du Wei if ye cannae tackle him just stick a chopstick in his eye!"

I was buckled

 

wrong thread :smiley-laughing002:

 

So it is

Du Wei CSC

 

Playin the huns at CP about 1998 ish.

The ball was trickling out for a throw to them down at the corner flag at block 111. Gough is doin that thing defenders do and basically shielding the ball from Simon Donnelly so he canny get near it and it will go out for a throw to them.

Wee Simon gets fed up with Gough`s pish and gives him a good shoulder barge. Gough starts runnin and has to jump the wee wall/gate bit to avoid crashin into it.

When he landed in amongst us he very near shat himself and got outy there as fast as he could. Still mind the look on his face to this day, sheer * terror in his eyes.

Anybody mind this? I know its a long shot but it was very funny at the time.

 

Now, if he had stuck a chopstick in the guy's eye - correct thread!

 

Naw smart * am auld enough to remember it unfortunately

Game away to Dundee about 9-10 years ago. Larsson scored a beauty to put us 1-0 up. Was early in the game, so things looking comfortable. Balde (I think) then got sent off and we played 70 odd minutes with 10 men. Larsson was unbelievable from then on in - he was everywhere, putting challenges in at the back, think he may even have cleared a goal-bound header at one point. I remember, distinctly, O'Neill lavishing Larsson with praise after said game just for his sheer effort to earn us 3 points - this was when Dundee had a good wee team too.

Also the video of Balde in the Celtic end in the Camp Nou when we drew with them - 0-0 game I think and went through - he was going mad like every other fan!

Remember that game, I'm sure Larsson actually got told to play as a midfielder when we went down to 10 men.

 

When sammy took out Novo with a classic school yard technique... the dead leg!

Or "a deady" !!

 

Last season at Ibrox, was Wilson's * up, Maj wasn't playing.

Thinking of big Dan, and on topic with the thread, him going through the back of guy's head to win a header on the half way line at St Johnstone and caving his face in. Thought the big man was underrated, Jelavic never scored against us whilst Majstorovic was on the pitch. Big man always kept him quiet.

Cha's crazy celebration when he scored a screamer against St Johnstone.
Matthews redeeming his * up to win the ball in Helsingborgs.

Kayal going over to the Green Brigade against Udinese last season to get them going.

 

The game when the scum won the league at Parkhead with Dallas. Last minute of the game, can't mind who the hun was, but he had the ball in the corner flag. Vidar Riseth just comes flying in and takes him from the knee. He was already on a yellow. He didn't even look at Dallas, he just got up, dusted himself down and headed straight for the tunnel as he knew what was coming. The game and league was long gone, so nothing like a bit of hunskelping as a consolation.

 

A so it was!

Matthews redeeming his * up in Helsinborgs; I've never seen somebody go flat out as much as fast as they could until then.

 

Mark wilson's individual performance against Dundee united when we beat them 2-1 away, a couple of seasons back. He was like a man possesed that day. It was his first start in ages and it cemented his place in the team for near enough the rest of that season.
