    He was just naturally rapid; I've never seen him go all out just run very, very fast. If you know what I mean?

    You could tell that Matthews was straining every single inch in his body to go that little extra bit faster.

    Cha wouldn't have needed to do that; even if Matthews is fast :56:

    I was meaning more that Cha was always bombing backwards to catch up for his * up......although Matthews did certainly looks as if he was ready to burst a blood vessel.

    That's true. I always wanted to see Agathe going all out; I don't think he would have been able to stop without going through the Jock Stein Stand :56:

    * that...would have had to cover the advertising boards in rubber foam :56::56:

    That reminds me - I was doing some repair work inside the Italian Centre in the town......the bold Agathe comes strolling through with two gorgeous burds on each arm (one blonde, one brunette). when I managed to take my eyes off them two, I remember thinking that * looks much taller in real life!

    One that always sticks in my mind was big Dan mentoring Wanyama last season. Once there were breaks in play, you could see Dan putting his arm around Wanyama, talking to him and walking up the pitch with him. Bit of a * one but still sticks in my mind. I liked Majstorovic. Yes, he had a few blunders but our defence still improved massively in his time here. I was dissapointed with how he left the club. He didn`t seem to be part of the title celebrations or anything. Maybe I`m wrong though

    Big Maj used to do that to all the young players. Constantly had either an arm round the shoulder and a quick word or a stern word in there ear. It's the biggest plus he brought to the team.

    I shudder to think what he was saying to them though... "No, you're doing it all wrong, what you want to do is get under the ball, so it sails right over your head." :56:

    He wasn't as bad as made out for me. Just always took a * of a long time to get back to any semblance of form after injury...

    I can still remember the baffled look on his face his first match when every header he made; we were so starved of a dominant defender.

    Scott Mcdonalds celebration against the huns when he scored at IPOX.

    Mcdonald kissing the badge nearly everytime he scored, Naka kissed it a few times, love when a player does that!

    at the end of the 2011 Scottish cup final when we bet motherwell when the players left the park after the parade sammy was last on the park he put the trophy down and applauded the celtic fans whilst we sang "ooo ahh samaras".

    Crosas going mental when sammy scored against the huns.

    Whole of CP Applauding Thierry Henry and Ronaldinho when they got subbed. Also this seasons friendly against Inter we applauded Sneijder of the park and he applauded us back.

    I think we may just have been happy they were going off the pitch :56:

    I hate badge kissing; unless they deserve to. McDonald and Naka deserved to in my opinion.

    The best example of badge kissing I ever saw was from Henrik. Can't mind who we were playing but he scored (obviously :celt_2: ) and he ran to the fans, tongue out, mobbed by his team-mates and took the adulation.

    Then after the celebrations were over he was jogging back to the halfway line and he just lifted the badge and gave it a little kiss. It was such a private moment (as private as you can get surrounded by 60,000 people) and wasn't meant for anyone but himself and really drove it home to me what the club meant to him.

    * I love that man.

    If I remember correctly it was Kevin McKenna who was knocked out, we were losing 1-0 and McKenna was the one who scored the goal and the physio said afterwards he hadn't a clue about the game and hadn't a clue he had scored in it.
