You are a worry..:smiley-laughing002:

Brilliant

 

Where have all our new Turkish friends gone?:smiley-laughing002:

 

The Molde result really does throw things up in the air.

Could be one of those ones where all the teams cut each other's throats.

If we can beat Fener in home game next, it puts the pressure right on them.

 

Molde could've just been a total shock result and nothing more. I'm glad they've done this as it means our position to win the group is open now and it means we wont be complacent with Molde when we face them.

If we can beat Fener at home or at least draw then we're still on for a promising group campaign.

It's the double-header that will decide who finishes where.

4 points at least against Molde whilst Fener v Ajax is either a 2-pointer or a 6-pointer for one side would be a dream.

 

If we beat Fenerbahce in our next game then they are under serious pressure already. The way the group is I can see teams taking points off each other home and away, so a point at home to Fener wouldn't be that bad.

 

Molde result makes it a bit confusing, I mean before it I thought we'd have to put in a good defensive performance against Fenerbace but now I'm thinking maybe just go for it and see if they wobble under pressure?

And now it's the opposite thoughts about Molde.

 

2 days ago we are going to lose the league and get pumped in every game in Europe now where going to win the group

 

Molde looked good took their goals really well..

 

Welcome to Talk Celtic :smiley-laughing002:

 

We need to make Parkhead a nightmare for Euro teams again. This Celtic side are capable of making that happen.

 

Molde could've easily had more goals. Fenerbahce looked out of ideas. Van Persie substituted early and nani complacent. They looked very much like a team Celtic should beat any day of the week. 4 points should be a minimum. We should go over there to get 3.

 

Just watched the goals from the Fener v Molde game and Fenerbahce were all over the place. No pace at the back and no positioning.

I'm pretty confident now that we can get something out of both ties.

 

Apparently only 25k 3 match packages sold

I'd guess that's because many will not buy the package due to Molde game at 6pm?

Anything short of 45k for these games would be disappointing as I think a crowd behind us could help us to victories.

Think the pricing for these matches could have been better.

 

Aye mate that's why i'm not going, don't finish work till half 5 and would be impossible to get away any earlier.

Hopefully we can now get 6 points from the Molde games - I really think that result wasn't supposed to happen - looking at the stats (Although not having seen the highlights) Fenerbache dominated and should have one.

6 points from them and hopefully another 3 from the other 3 games against ajax and fenerbache and we will qualify from the group on 10 points.

 

Really, where'd you hear that? Guys at the TO last week told me bottom tier was near sold out

 

6pm kick off is a bit of a * for folk, finishing work on time and getting down if there's a bit of travelling involved. Not ideal at all. I live in Glasgow and it's not giving me a great deal of time with work commitments. I think people underestimate the travelling a lot of our home support has to do to get to Celtic Park to be honest. If you can't make that one that you're more than likely not going to bother buying the package and just buy tickets for the other 2 nearer the time.

Anyone know if there's a specific reason why there's 2 designated kick off times for EL? 6pm and 8.05. Tried looking it up and couldn't see anything, and I can't think off the top of my head any real reason or purpose for it.

 

Down to The Tv Company's and Uefa

 

Don't know why TV didn't even occur to me there. Of course :smiley-laughing002:

 

Also Geography is one issue, games in Russia normally kick off early so as to prevent them lasting until midnight local time.


That's if we had to play in Russia
