With all the talk about £1.8m Garner, Dembele is a bargain at £500k
Scottish Fitba Thread (Part 22)

Cracking game.
Towards the end I was worried that we weren't going to hold on for a point but we managed it.
Sinclair, Dembele and Toure were standouts for me.
Massive point with Barcelona winning in Germany.

My view on game was for the second goal, I'd blame Brown ( 2 slow ) * the third goal ( Kolo should have left it for the goalie, but the goalie was to slow coming out )
other than that great result for the bhoys

I'd be blaming Dembele and not Broony for the second goal, it was a terrible pass.

I'd say it was 50/50 myself mate, but Broony did give him a blast in the ear !

He certainly did.
Fantastic result, really difficult match but we had a good go and to score 3 goals against a top European side probably EPL winners and quarter/semi finalists was brilliant. place rocking as well.

It is just a gutter that we couldn't hold a lead for more than 10 minutes.
Whilst I still think that 2nd place is out of our grasp a win against Gladbach will give us a chance of getting into the Europa League.
Still a long way to go before that though.

I thought it looked like Dembele gave as good as he got, he's sussed out 'Broony', he's no footballer but he's at least supposed to be able to tackle and he couldn't even do that at the second goal.
Yet again Brown flattered to deceive last night, making some good interceptions but giving away possession in decent positions too often.
Over the moon with the result, strange to feel a little hard done by though as we were in front 3 times.
Celtic fined €10k from the Hapoel Beer Sheva game.
About 2% of the money we made for getting a point last night.

They fined us £16k for Palestine flags at the Murrayfield game now its only £10k
Celtic should take it to the court of arbitration as how can UEFA claim a countries flag is an illicit banner. It wont stand up although the fines are that much of a nonsense its probably not worth the hassle or the money to get Lawyers involved.

I'm presuming that the fine was so low due to #matchthefineforPalestine.
Had they hammered us it would have reflected incredibly badly on them.
St Johnstone got fined more and I think they only had 1 Palestine flag in their end.
It's all a nonsense though.

Covered the most distance of any player on the pitch last night and had a 91% pass completion rate.
Broony had a great game last night.

I'm not bothered by how much he ran about, we all know he can do that, the guys incredibly fit, still can't control a football like a professional though(see second goal). Brown is the very epitome of a player who's second touch is a tackle.
Surprised at those passing stats though, can remember him giving it away in the final third on several occasions. Wasn't his worst performance by any means but people are definitely influenced by all the gnashing and niggling he does, I'm even prone to a bit of that myself.
I've watched enough of Brown over the years that he'll never convince me, the odd decent performance isn't nearly enough.
It's actually incredible to be a Tim the now, walking about with a smile on your face feeling like you are floating for about a month now, not felt like this in years.

I think him playing when he hasn't been match fit has been very much to his detriment over his entire Celtic career. He has put the club before himself. Was that for the best? Maybe not.
For me, when he is fit he is the first name on the team sheet. That is why Rodgers had him down to London in preseason and we have played the way we have..

I am probably too harsh on him tbh, I like a bit of finesse about a midfield fulcrum. As long as he's in the side I'll support him.........and then criticise him when the game is done!
I think the fact he's been so inconsistent and his basic technique can be awful at times has clouded my judgement.
Another decent result for Beer Sheva tonight, they're definitely not the mugs they were made out to be.

You can't be Scottish coming out with that.

Very few teams are.
Remember how bad Braga were supposed to be? They beat us and ended up in the Europa League final that season.
Fantastic result for Dundalk, they must fancy their chances of getting through the EL group stages.
The club that put the State in Statement have done it again. 
I dont see how they keep going on about it when it was their fans that started the fighting, if they went home with their tails between their legs like the wee diddy outfit that had just been pumped that they were everything would have been fine.
But no raberz were raging and had to run on and skelp a few partying fenians before leaving.
Then to fabricate claims that their players had been attacked brass neck

Those in charge at Ibrox are constantly playing to the crowd.
The Glib And Shameless Liar promised a massive 'warchest' that hasn't appeared because it doesn't exist. They are struggling in the league need something to deflect and this is the best Jabba and Level 5 can do.
Bringing out these statements keeps some of their fans onside but the number is reducing all the time.
One day they'll all see through it like they eventually saw though Murray, Whyte and Green.
There will still be many laughs in store for us non-Ibrox fans first though.

On the park, losing Ramsdens finals, finishing 3rd in the 2nd tier, horsed off Motherwell 6-1 in a play-off, Cup final pumped run on and start fighting with opposition fans, statements released, promotion, "we're going for 55" leathered, skelped, battered, outclassed, statements released about sex dolls, sitting 7th, Joey Barton top earner banned.
That not even 10% of the laughing we've been doing either. The defeats and draw to the Alloas and Queens Parks and struggles now against Kilmarnock and Hamilton, 18 stone Kris Boyd outpacing your star centre-half.
It's too good.
