Non Monumental Moments Why You Loved a Player

They are utter morons if they said that. Not welcome at Celtic Park.

 

Lubo controlling the ball with his *
Jackie Mac punching Hatley
Brown squaring up to the near 7 foot St Pauli striker, while Mark Wilsons was laughing in the background
Wasnt playing for Celtic but have to mention Tommy Gemmell booting the German up the hole
Lennon celebrating at Ibrox when McDonald scored
Ronnie Simpsons back heel to take it past the Inter striker in the EC Final
Charlie Tully scoring his second consecutive corner after the first was ruled out

 

On that note, Lenny taking the trophy over to the GB last season was * amazing. The way he just left it there and walked off was quality, everyone booing that poor security guy for taking it away as well

 

The security man was * gutted

 

Artur's jazz hands against Spartak! :icon_mrgreen:

 

This, and in exactly those words.

 

The whistle stopping play, but Artur Boruc still diving to keep the ball out of our net.

 

Thommo crunching Ricksen every game against Deadco then trying to scrap with him, bet he never got asked round for neighbourly drinks after the game

 

stan petrov skinning ronaldinho then ronny took him out and got booked.. class

 

Roy Keanes testimonial at OT when Boruc took a goal kick with a wee ball the fans threw on. I love Boruc.

There was one point towards the end of last season when Wanyama was charging forward and a defender tried a shoulder barge and bounced off him.

Scott Brown taking the * out of the St Mirren player (Miranda, I think) who might have even been sent off eventually. I love it when Broony winds a player up beyond belief.

 

Mark McGhee, think it was against Honved Budapest at Celtic park. He had been getting pelters since he signed about his rather portely shape. Think he came on as a sub that day, got the ball on the halfway line after we had cleared a corner, they only had one man back on halfway line, McGhee bounced him out the way with his *, ran up the pithc and the keeper came out to meet him, he shot, hit the keeper, it rebounded back to him, he rounded the keeper and scored.

Went in a week from

"he's fat, he's round, he isnae worth a pound ,Mark McGhee, Mark McGhee"

to

"he's fat, he's round, he isnae worth a million pounds ,Mark McGhee, Mark McGhee"

Another favourite striker of mine was Tommy Coyne, loved when he bundled the ball over the line against the huns at Paradise and he ended up in the net, went to get out and john brown booted him up in the air and back into the net, Coyne just got up, flashed him a big smile and ran to the Jungle :icon_mrgreen:

 

Some great memories mentioned here.
I remember one game against Aberdeen a few years ago, they had a goal kick and John Hartson goes and grabs the ball and starts walking back to the half way line, keeper's yelling after him and eventually follows him to get the ball back, must have caught up with John about half way to the half way line when John lobs the ball right back towards the goal. Funny as *!
Also loved Big Rab's reaction to Henrik's first goal in Seville. Attempted a somersault or something of that nature.

 

David Marshall against Barcelona - think in the home game he come on for Rab Douglas, with his first touch being a pass back, he was being charged down my Rhonaldinho. Marshall cool as you like chipped it over the oncoming Brazilian, then passed it on to the nearest defender.

Marshall was sensational the 2nd game in Barca as well but that one wee moment was good for me

 

Came here to post this and you`ve beat me to it.

I was never really a big fan of his but Peter Grant was * outstanding that day and gave his all.

 

3-3 killie at rugby park, stokes scores the first and doesnt celebrate, then the second and doesnt celebrate, sums him up as a player whos out to win

 

Probably seeing Hartley give 110% and helping us to 3IAR. Wouldn't say I loved him but definitely respected what he did.

 

David Marshall chipping the ball over Ronaldinho's head after he'd saved his penalty. 19 years old showing balls of steel there.

 

Every moment Neil Lennon spent on the pitch at Ibrox. I always felt that Neily had his best games in a Celtic shirt at Ibrox. He * loved it there. The more they abused him, and the more they hated him, the better he played. The dumb * were too stupid to see it though.

 

The match that he and Roy Keane played at Ibrox, we were so comfortable it was unbeleivable.
