Celtic vs Legia Warsawa (UCL 3rd round qualifier, August 6th 7.45. NOT ON TV).

I was wondering about the black thing myself but I have nowhere near enough knowledge about Polish history to even take a guess or pretend I knew lol

 

Maybe Cracovia is right that it has something to do with the history of skinhead movement and its connection to football supporters, but in Polish context it just seems completely nonsensical.

 

I don't think Ronny will change the line up for this. If we get in control of the game early there should only be one winner.

 

We should beat them comfortably home and away if they're as bad as people are saying, the only thing that can go against us in this tie is our habit of * it outside of Scotland.

 

So is it a fair assumption that we are better than Legia by a little bit but they are still good enough to cause us problems if we are not at our best? Hate the unknown at times.

 

Hopefully Ronnys unaware of our history away from home in Europe and ignorance is bliss lol

 

Yep, this would be my assessment. We are comfortably a better team on paper but the same could be said of every team we have played in qualifying since the Champions path was implemented and we have still had a few scares. For me this is the most difficult opponent we have faced in qualifying over the last few years.

 

I would agree with that they are too. I still cant tell whether Reykjavik were the poorest team we have faced in qualifying over the last few years or maybe it was just a really good performance by us.

 

im confident we'll get a good result over in poland

i think our team will probably be the same as started against rekavic

no reason to change a winning and dominant team performance even if it was against part timers

mulgrew and i'm a fan is looking better and better in that lcm role be tough for kayal or biton to get into this side

maybe cause its better opposition we'll play an extra central midfielder

so a 4 3 2 1 this time

forster

lustig ambrose vvd izzy

Going by the co-efficient rekyavijk were better than Cliftonville we beat both by the same scores so its hard to judge

 

To tell you the truth I am bricking it about this one.We have some key players out through injury, a new manager still finding his feet, and a defence that looks widen open at times, especially via Ambrose.

 

Fancy us to sneak the win over there 1-0

 

Haven't a clue about Legia Warsaw but these ties mean everything to us. Europe is vital to us.

 

For sure he is. And, of course, it is nonsensical, especially in connection with black people.

But this "racism" is not really dangerous - in fact, only a really small group of people identify with this ideology. The thing which probably can concern you is USSR symbol. I have no idea if you really like communists and Soviet Russia, but you oughta now, that they murdered hundreds of thousands polish people during and after WWII, especially polish army officers and other 'vital' to nation persons, then they took a big part of polish territory and occupied Poland until 1989. Results of that are visible in Poland everyday (and not only in Poland, for example lots of polish people living in Scotland is also an effect), so hanging that flag would probably instantly get Legia fans mad and make atmosphere a bit harsh.

Ps. Hi all
Ps2. Sorry for my english.

Cheers.

 

* every racist *, dont care if polish scottish or what.

Hope and think that the respectful Legia fans will welcome us very well.

Your English is great (it is very polished), mate (I just think you meant until 1989 instead of since 1989).

 

Lol, of course I did, stupid mistake. Thanks
