[Official TC Thread] Celtic vs Manchester City - Wed 28th September - 7:45 - BT Sports 2

I missed the opening goal because an old guy jumped in the back of the turnstile when another guy was going through and both were jammed haha

 

Pep shook every celtic players hands at the end and spoke highly of us. Seems a decent guy.

Although he did say "it was 3 goals away in europe which is hard" he travels further to southampton in the league but i guess he has to try and put a positive spin on it.

Bought the program last night its going to be a keeper!!

 

Just as well you wummin are allowed to change your minds. <IMG class=inlineimg border=0 alt=0 src="http://www.talkceltic.net/forum/images/smilies/players1/smiley-laughing002.gif" smilieid="259">

Immensely proud of what we achieved last night and those kind of games are what going along to see makes being a Celtic supporter so special.

Brilliant atmosphere from start to finish and a joy to watch us take on what are arguably some of the world's biggest if not richest clubs, and make them go home knowing we have given our all.

 

I remember there being a period in the second half, around 70 minutes I'm sure, where it might have been the loudest I've ever heard Parkhead, with the score at 3-3.

Grace, the Lonesome Boatman and the COYBIG chant came across extremely well on TV, as of course did YNWA. The noise that the crowd made during the CL anthem also gave me severe goosebumps. It's those things that you miss when you're not in the group stages.

 

COYBIG was very loud in the stadium last night.

Quick look on their forum and theybare envious of the atmosphere.

 

Only disappointment was that we never got the full stadium Huddle going, * kept on equalizing less than ten minutes after each of our goals :smiley-laughing002:

 

Yer right. I was singing along in the hoose. Brilliant on and off the park.

 

Am still on a high from last night, one of the best games I've ever been at. The fans on top form as usual for European nights and by christ did the team turn, we took the game to them from the get go and had them rattled for the first 10 mins, that first half was the best ever football I've seen us play in the flesh at that level. They didn't half step up.
Huge boost for the team plus a great lesson for them in terms of how good you have to be on the ball, pressing and mainly keeping that tempo up which is down to playing that level every week. I knew we'd tire but pleasantly surprised we made it to 70mins before they dominated the ball and we sat in but even then we couple of chances to break.

Exciting times ahead!

 

Sitting here thinking of what could have happened had Kolo scored with that chance and made it 2-0 inside ten minutes, not sure if the stadium could have withstood what would have come next :smiley-laughing002:

 

There is some amount of retards in our support that don't know how to go through a turnstile properly, I see it all the time.

 

One rendition of Blue Moon and That Glad All Over song which In sure was about Guardiola was the sum of their support.

Awful

Believe me they will be no better down there, I saw them play CSKA a few seasons ago and it was in my view quieter than The Emirates which is the one that seems to be held up as the definitive * atmosphere

 

I notice that the number of votes for draw has increased significantly since the final whistle.

 

I voted for a Celtic win just before kick-off. :smiley-laughing002:

 

Was anyone else forced to listen to Martin Tyler last night? With Paradise as rocking as it was you can still here the crowd but whatever broadcast it was drowned out the sound of the game and increased Martin Tyler's mic. It was like watching paint dry, you'd think the way he reacted to goals this was a friendly being played in North America. Didn't even know who scored our second goal, had to pause for 5-6 seconds to find out.

 

Going to watching it again tonight on sportmania....hope we win this time..:icon_mrgreen:

 

Anyone have videos of champions league anthem from last night?

 

And well done BT sport for not cutting to an ad break (like Sky usually do) when Champ League anthem and the team huddle is on!

 

I'm near Manchester right now and folk are raving about us in that game.. It's like a wee bomb went off in the Premiership ! Celtic just did to city what Swansea, Bournemouth , BMG, West Ham, Stoke, man Utd have all failed to do so far..

Other EPL clubs and their supporters are thinking they show man city too much fear and respect...

 

Who they playing on the weekend? They'll try the same and get absolutely pumped I think.
