We got beat fair and square but happy with how we performed, however folk seem to crawling over each other on here to make the same remarks looking for a bite that’s not really there. It’s a bit cringe really. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because if you stay, then no matter how hard you try you will never, never, never reach the level of Real, Man City, Bayern etc etc. Just as no matter how hard they try Aberdeen, Hibernian, Heart of Midlothian will never reach the level of Celtic.

paranoid android Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 If the only factor stopping celtic from being the best team in the world is money, then we're looking at a systemic failure to attract significant investment - sack the board. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You say they like I have any control or say in where we play Difference is I’m not going to bitch and moan about finances because there are parts of our performance last night which were good and if we were more clinical then getting a result may have been a possibility.

All they need to do is show a bit more ambition. Maybe grow their fan base a bit and they'll be able to complete with the big boys. Apparently it's really easy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, the usual story of a home side going close a few times in the first half, roared on by the crowd, before Celtic step up through the gears in the second half to a comfortable victory away from home. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie67 Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 Why all the fuss? The best team in Scotland got beaten by ,arguably, the best team in the world . Was expected. We played well in spells and had some good chances but unfortunately never took them . Judge us on results against the other 2 sides in the group 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mychurch Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 That’s a good performance and result for Celtic - the gulf in class between the European elite and the rest is enormous. They will learn a lot from the defeat. It’s a shame for the rest of us - another domestic treble and an undefeated season could well be on the cards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet in the Tory tinted world of Glasgow Celtic where you just have to think positive and try harder it seems that it is. You're performance last night was as irrelevant as a St Mirren or St Johnstone pluckily making it to half time level before the inevitable and tedious pumping. What poor Liz Truss will make of it when she takes up the invitation to watch the right wingers football club of choice is anyones guess. But she'll love the Celtic philosophy......no handouts, pull yourself up by the bootstraps.

I think this has stemmed more from the recent posts on here from some Celtic minded posters on recent threads regarding the duopoly stating teams need to show some more ambition and just "get things right" in order to challenge Celtic (or Rangers). I don't think it's much to do with Celtic fans reaction to last nights result. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But she'll love the Celtic philosophy......no handouts, pull yourself up by the bootstraps. Like it or not football is a pyramid system at every level and unless you change the system at Uefa level and implement all of these suggestions such as revenue sharing, salary caps, limits on foreigners then it’s just blue sky thinking. We aren’t going to be getting a cut of Real Madrids revenues, we aren’t going to be given a handout by PSG, Man City aren’t going to reduce their salaries to make it fairer for us so the option presented with us is a singular one and that is use the resources at our disposal and try get better. Thats the reality and it’s the one I’ll face into with optimism. You won’t hear me say it’s pointless or meaningless or that we should just start playing our reserves Edited September 7, 2022 by Jinky67 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
