Malky Mackay as new Performance Director at SFA.

When you think Scottish football couldn't present itself as any more backward.

3 points out of 18.
1 point out of 9 at home.
16 goals conceded.
Biggest defeat in Celtic's European history.
Two home defeats.
GD of -11.
The 2nd worst amount of goals conceded.
27th best team in the CL out of 32.

Let me get this straight.......you are proud of this?.
Nice to see that you are out of your huff, always a bit embarrassing when a guy in his 40s behaves in that manner.

Lets have a look at what you posted.

Were either of those predictions remotely close to being true? They weren't, were they?

As for Franco and his, they were even worse.

Eh?. It WAS the goalscorer that stepped off and then back on. Cowie.
At the important time, when the ball was played, the only Hearts player close to being off the pitch is the number 10.

As glasgow67 said, you are clutching at straws.

Well done The Sons on a fine win v Fakirk, a sublime 2nd goal to win the match.
Onwards to Somerset Park next week

We've beaten United @ home, and were unlucky to lose up at Tannadice a month or so back, Hibs beat us @ home narrowly earlier in the season with a dodgy penalty and they took a while to get in gear v Sons last week.
A very tight League where every side is capable of beating each other.
Morton are worth keeping an eye on, underrated & very decent on their day.

Could be a cracking season in the Championship as long as one of the sides doesn't bottle it like Aberdeen and Hearts have in the battle for 2nd in the Premiership.

And for the booing of the English national anthem.

Never realised an element of the fine was for that.

The 4 FA's should get together and refuse to pay the fines

Celtic continuing to swat teams aside, fair play to Partick Thistle though. Two times we played them recently although the aggregate score was 5-1 they tried to attack us and created more chances than probably most if not all the other domestic teams will create in all our games between them this season. They should have beat Sevco a few weeks ago too, suprising they are bottom of the League.

Are they needing a tea boy?

No chance he'll get more than a few last 5 minute appearances. Time has caught up with him.

They played really well on Tuesday.

Great to see Sinclair getting a goal with Dembele struggling a bit recently. Also good to see the squad rotated to keep up with freshness. I'm not sure about Calvin Miller at left back though. He'd struggle to break through and get a game in front of Tierney.

You never know, Tierney didn't do much in his first 5-10 appearances for us. Then since then has been one of if not the best player in the team.

Whats all this Joey Garner stuff about as well? are they mocking him by singing about him in the same way as Celtic fans sing Efe Ambrose Balon D'or.

I've not been online much over the last few days but a The Rangers fans I'm mates with on FB was going nuts last night about Celtic fans teaching Little Mix fans Irish Republican slogans. Also seen a delicate soul of a The Rangers fan tweet Police Scotland cause a Little Mix fan called him a Hun.

It must be a bit of a piss take, he has as many bookings as goals.

If only it was close to that amount!

Still, if VvD moves in January it'll be some extra money for Rodgers to get to spend.

If we get £5m, then that's pretty good business.

Any idea what the sell on is?

10-15% on the profit Southampton will make?

Cracking game of football at Fir Park.

3 goals and 2 missed penalties in the first half with an absolute peach of a goal by Skippy.
