I post two fairly distinct topics.

#CelticFc

And #SpeirGorm, (generally Irish) current affairs.

If you follow me for one but not the other, mute the other hashtag.

Browser: click the hashtag, mute.

Bluesky app: Press & hold hashtag, click mute.

That should remove 90% of that topic from me. ๐Ÿ’š
Delighted to see you back, my man!!

I can truly say, you were missed on here yesterday. So many people noticed your abscene and hoped all was good!!

So we're all glad to see you back!!

Oh.. And C'MON THE HOOPS!!! ๐Ÿ€๐Ÿ€๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…
Definitely never a penalty yesterday.

My issue with Ralston is that he's accepted as not good enough to start, but "ok backup".

But that also blocks the place from a youth player who could also do that job, but also have a higher ceiling to develop further and actually push for a start.
Ralston the perfect example of #Celticfc 's imperfect squad management.

"Can do a job", but not near pushing AJ for a start. And we have a good few players like that.

Everyone should really be pushing for a start, with the other spaces being reserved for youths.

Raises level of the whole squad.

I know this won't surprise anyone here but Musk's reprogrammed artificial intelligence is spreading misinformation about yesterday's attack on a train

Aye.

There's 2 lists.

A list and B list.

B list can, have unlimited youth players, who have been eligible to play for the club at least 2years.

A list has 25 players.

But at least 4 need to be club trained.
And 4 "association" trained.

Otherwise, you lose however many spots in the A list.
I'd take him as chairman or something like that.

I think he might be abit too old school for DoF, given he doesn't really believe in stats & other things that would be really essential in building the structures of modern club.

But definitely not averse to having him in some position at #Celticfc
Apologies. It's actually 2 years he needs to be at the club. Not 3.
Sadly, he doesn't make the B list as he hasn't been a youth in the country for 3 years.

So he had to be named in the A list.
Legend!! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ’ช

And breathe!!!

A tough second half, especially given we were facing 10 men.

But came through it in extra time.

At least that monkey more or less off our backs now. Because there's no way we would've won that a few weeks ago.

Mon the Hoops!! ๐Ÿ€๐Ÿ€๐Ÿ€

#Celticfc
Nick Walsh is the prick's prick.

#Celticfc
This seems to be the case.

With Maloney the one in the middle of the team huddle, giving out instructions at HT of ET.

#Celticfc
I'm more confident with the change of manager. And moreso Maloney tbh.

Before MON had even come in, he rounded up the players and was going through the Hearts game to show players where to improve. Which it seems BR just never done.

But still a lot of shortcomings. So who knows.

Still want to see Donovan be allowed go develop in that position.

Ralston is a bit of a liability.

But don't confuse that with the inexperience of youth, who will develop and get better with that game time.

#Celticfc
I'd give Donovan a chance too.

General concensus Ralston "can do a job", but not NEAR pushing AJ for a start.

SURELY Donovan can do that, thus creating an actual youth pathway, instead of blocking it with players we know aren't good enough.

But BR won't.

I think Donovan looks a prospect. I'd play him ahead of Ralston this season. Rodgers won't but I would.
Defence creaking badly.

We are lucky they are incredibly shite, and yet Schmeichel has dug us out a few times.

#Celticfc
We're not that solid defensively.

Ralston gets beaten too easily.
Scales tends to rush out to press someone, which I never understand isn't exploited more.

And a couple of crosses there we look a bit at 6s & 7s, leaving a player unmarked.

#Celticfc
YYYASSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!

WHAT A GOAL CALMAC!!!

#CELTICFC
Fuckin hell Scales....

We have been CHRONIC this half...

#Celticfc
Never a pen.

Shocker.

But we've been shite the 2nd half.
You'd think we were the ones down to 10.

Mon ta fuck #Celticfc!
Ralston the brickie wall there. ๐Ÿ˜…

#Celticfc
Holy shit.

How'd that stay out from Forrest...

#Celticfc
Tounetki just not connecting with anything on that wing at all.

Nothing happening for him or from him at all.

So off for Forrest.

#Celticfc
They're pressing us.

And we're showing that fragility.

Scales cannot deal with a press.
Will just pass it away, even under no pressure.

And Ralston...

#Celticfc
We have fallen to bits here.

They're down to 10.
But we've gone so scrappy. Struggling to make passes.

#Celticfc
Why has Sinisalo not been given the cup game time?

Rhetorical question.

Doesn't make sense, especially in cup to persist with the faltering and aging KS, and leave Sinisalo with a lack of time on the pitch
