    If we get Barca on match day 5 or 6 they'll probably have already qualified.

    With the atmosphere of Parkhead under the lights... you never know.

    I'll go for Celtic 3 - 1 Barca

    Commons X 2 Del Piero x 1, Messi for Barca.

    Good thing from the teams point of view is the travelling time is good ,apart from Moscow.Portugal and Spain shouldn`t have any real effect on the players.

    2nd in that table is a good possibility and if we could repeat the 2004 Barca games then ..........aye awrite 2nd would be great.

    Interesting that we've played all 3 of our opponents in the past 5 years. Anyway, the way our games are set out should be the following:

    Matchday One
    CELTIC v Barcelona
    Benfica v Spartak Moscow

    Matchday Two
    Spartak Moscow v CELTIC
    Barcelona v Benfica

    Matchday Three
    Benfica v CELTIC
    Spartak Moscow v Barcelona

    Matchday Four
    CELTIC v Benfica
    Barcelona v Spartak Moscow

    Matchday Five
    Barcelona v CELTIC
    Spartak Moscow v Benfica

    Matchday Six
    CELTIC v Spartak Moscow
    Benfica v Barcelona

    Bring it on. :50:

    Honestly I think it'll be tough to finish above 4th in that group. Even Spartak have a good squad but I'll always give us a chance at Celtic Park, it needs to be a fortress.

    Little disappointed if I'm honest, would rather teams he haven't played in a while but still, Messi at Celtic Park, McGeady home coming and plenty of experience for the the Bhoys!

    We're never going to win this thing so why not let the lads get in about the Barca, who IMO are the greatest team of our generation

    No matter what group we got, we're in it and Parkhead will be bouncing regardless of the score

    The Bhoys are back in Town!

    I sense a little overconfidence. We are capable of qualifying indeed, but ease does not describe even slightly the effort it will take from the players. It’s a tough group, you can’t overlook that.

    Too many times in the past we’ve been in this position of optimism prior to a major competition and the reality is actually entirely the opposite with multiple drubbings.

    Spartak and Benfica are beatable at home and everything else is a bonus.
    Time to enjoy being back in the big time and hopefully get a 2nd or 3rd place finish.

    3rd would be an achievement. 2nd possible but not likely.

    We need a couple of very big signings if we want to get through.

    I don't think anyone said it's an easy group. :rolleyes: 2nd or 3rd is well within our capabilities though.
