    Well after a superb start start by Rangers sticking two early on to go two one up after an early Celtic goal, Celtic have equalised with a minute to go before half time. Not as dirty a match as I have seen in the past. McGeady is looking lively.

    Ill NEVER understand the SPL. It honestly seems like Rangers play Celtic at least once a month.

    Well there is a chance of that towards the end of a season up there anyway. TBF, it is not that hard to understand, there are less teams and so each team plays each other more times.

    Goal 1 - slightly offside
    Goal 2 - Weir with the back of his head (zonal marking WTF?)
    Goal 3 - great header from Cousin (zonal marking WTF?)
    Goal 4 - great goal from McDonald with great work from McGeady

    12 teams play 38 games = they play each other more than twice


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,008 ✭✭✭delija_sever029


    And i dont get how Celtics defence allowed to make twice same mistake and get 2 same goals....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,149 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6

    Victory,nice very nice,3 more to win and let hoping Rangers will draw and lose in next period


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 8,567 ✭✭✭Unearthly


    Must be very frustrating for a Rangers fan to be so many games behind, puts a lot of pressure on them to win their games in hand.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,008 ✭✭✭delija_sever029


    Maybe pressure will crack them and.....Celtic champions:)

    Goal 1: McDonald, OFFSIDE.
    Goal 2, 3 and 4 i agree with you
    Goal 4: McDonald Offside as the ball goes through, McDonald Outside the box as he backs into boradfoot to win the "Foul"

    In between, Caldwel, Naylor and Robson and Hartley do nothing but kick kick and kick again.
    and dont even get me started on Hessilinks Assault on Amdy Faye.
    2 Handball incidents in celtic penalty area go completely un noticed.

    Last week i came on here and openly congratulated celtic on a deserved win, not today.
    You kicked, cheated and fluked your way to that win.

    McDonald was not offside for the peno incident. Broadfoot takes him down in the box and should consider himself lucky he did not get a red card.

    JVoH can consider himself lucky he did not get red for that high tackle

    The Caldwell handball incident is as much a penalty as the one at the end from Dailly

    Very happy today and finally we put a bit of pressure on Rangers although it may be too late.

    I admit the dailly incident was as much of a penalty, as BOTH handball incidents.

    McDonald stopped and backed into Broadfoot outside the box, he made no effort to go towards the ball.
    Broadfoot as clumsy as he may be, had no option but to run into his back because of this.

    I'm sorry EB, but hearing a Rangers fan complaining about being kicked off the park has to be the funniest thing I have ever read on this thread to be perfectly honest. I'm still laughing at it.

    Alanis Morissette should add that one to her list. :D

    What do we make of Bourc wearing that god bless the pope t-shirt?

    Nothing. What do you make of it?

    The Rangers fans are probably complaining to the police again though. ;)

    Why bother worrying about that doughball?

    He done it for one reason and one alone, we all know that.

    As for rangers fans complaining about it....rich coming from Celtic fans who complain about Rangers fans having Union Flags....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,111 ✭✭✭✭RasTa


    I think it's a joke that Celtic's own players join in with the nonsense that goes on in these games and portray's Celtic in a very bad light.

    Celtic fans complaining to the police about flags? When?

    As for Boruc, fair play to him. Those nuggets have been giving him dogs abuse about his religion for years every game in Mordor so that may have been his little GIRFUY before he leaves in the summer. Fair play to him.

    Players often have stuff written on their T-shirts. What's the big deal?

    Nothing wrong with what he had written on it. If it winds people up, that's their problem.
