Champions League Qualifier: Celtic v Cliftonville 23 July 7.45pm KO

Like he always does, a wee smile and a cuddle with the players. Only seen him react different when it's Old Firm games, Champions League or a last gasp winner.

 

And what a smile

 

What happend to the old stadium announcer

 

Job done, Elfsborg will be a couple of steps up in quality to Cliftonville. Bring them on.

 

Enjoyed being back at Celtic Park,now looking forward to the next match

 

My thoughts exactly. Speakers were much louder and crisper from last season, sat in Jock Stein and they sounded fantastic.

He should do 1 extra flip for every goal he scores this season.

 

On the boat back home now.
Thoroughly enjoyed last night, great atmosphere. Couldn't believe it when I seen reports of 29,000 at the game. 29k me ballix! Easily 40k.
Before and afterwards was great craic in Gallowgate with our green brothers.

Here's my thoughts on yesterday: ( bare in mind I am commenting as a big Celtic fan as well)

Sammy would be a better player if he would learn to stay on his feet!
In both of these ties he went over at the slightest touch. Maybe that's just European footballers, but its *.

Don't get too carried away with these wins.
Listening to Radio Scotland this morning, you would have thought Celtic had just come through a big tie with Real Madrid!
Cliftonville are a semi pro side. Most of these lads are brickies, plumbers, teachers etc. they work full time and train twice a week. Tbh, Celtic should have steamrollered the Reds, but didn't and were really poor last night in front of goal, given the gulf in class and experience.

This Cliftonville side wouldn't equal the transfer fee of any of Celtics first team players. kinda puts it in perspective.

I and most of the Reds support will be cheering Celtic on as usual for the rest of the campaign. Thanks for all your hospitality in Glasgow, not that we expected less. Hope to see you all soon again in our usual seats in the home end at Paradise. ( surreal sitting where the Huns usually are!!!:smiley-laughing002

Fantastic club, best fans in the world, lets hope we can go the whole way this year. No club deserves it more.

 

Class wish he had done it infront of the jock stein stand were I was sitting

 

Was at the game last night with my folks from LA (their first time) and was sitting in 409 above and to the left of the GB. The loved the game and were really taken with the sound coming from the GB. Dont know if it was just because I was nearer to them but thought they put up a great showing.

 

Just saw this. Brilliant.

 

It looks full-ish in videos, where 29k the BBC got is clearly bollocks.
