    If we can keep a clean sheet for 30 minutes v Hearts next week, Fraser Forster will break Bobby Clarke's Scottish record for Aberdeen set in 1971. Forster equaled Clarke's record of 12 consecutive clean sheets today.

    2 quick goals for Stokes to give him a hat-trick, 3-0. :-)



    Great to see for Stokes. I think he has played well overall this season just the goals have not been there. But thats 4 in the last 2 games now and 11 overall so hopefully he will finish the season off on a nice run.

    CELTIC: Forster; Matthews, Ambrose, van Dijk, Mulgrew; Brown, Biton, Johansen, Commons; Stokes, Griffiths.

    Subs: Zaluska, Samaras, Boerrigter, Balde, Pukki, Fisher, Herron

    Every week, there seems to be a new long standing record for Fraser Forster to beat!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,529 ✭✭✭✭Dempsey


    I few uncharacteristic wobbles today by the defence! :pac:

    Congrats to Fraser Forster on another record broken, incredible stuff! :eek:

    You LEGEND!

    1-0 Griffiths

    Nice finish


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,529 ✭✭✭✭Dempsey


    2-0 Pukki

    Great work by Balde to win the ball, pass finish into the corner by Pukki, Commons on hand to finish if need be too

    Missed Pukki's goal, must have been very late as I had to leave the house on about 89 mins. Griffith's was a beauty, nice little turn and picked his spot perfectly. Delighted for him. As for Forster, that's a fantastic achievement. He can relax now and hopefully keep extended it.

    93rd minute

    A couple of nice goals


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,229 ✭✭✭bobbysands81


    Forster beating that record is incredible.

    If we keep a clean sheet at Pittodrie on Tuesday then I think yes only 6 minutes away from the European record held by (I think) Van Der Sar when he was at Manchester United.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 464 ✭✭rosskind


    Tuesday will be a real test but if they come through that there's a nice run of games in March to really smash some records. People may dismiss Forster's acheivements all they want but there have been some vital, game-winning, world class saves along the way. Not many keepers in the world I'd swap him for.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,529 ✭✭✭✭Dempsey


    I didnt realise he's that close to the British record by Van Der Sar.

    I expect Celtic to avenge the performance in the Scottish Cup with a clinical display. At times in the 1st half against Hearts, I felt Celtic were going through the motions until Forsters record was secure. Lennon needs to knock that mindset out of them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,706 ✭✭✭premierstone


    Pretty impressed with Grifiths on Saturday I have to say, was linking up well with Stokes and they do seem to compliment each other well, great finish for the goal aswell.

    CELTIC: Forster; Matthews, van Dijk, Ambrose Izaguirre; Brown, Biton, Mulgrew, Commons; Griffiths, Stokes

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,529 ✭✭✭✭Dempsey


    Van Dijk sent off


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators, Regional North East Moderators Posts: 10,887 Mod ✭✭✭✭PauloMN


    VVD red carded, very harsh sending off. Rash challenge but he got the ball.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,529 ✭✭✭✭Dempsey


    Griffiths only got a yellow card for that! :pac:

    EDIT

    Celtic picking up too many cards. They are failing to get to grips with this game


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators, Regional North East Moderators Posts: 10,887 Mod ✭✭✭✭PauloMN


    Another yellow, this time for Ambrose! Gonna be a long night!

    What a goal by Johnny Hayes, Forster had no chance!

    Arse.... missed it, little one wanted a story... some things take priority, even over Celtic. :D

    2-0. Game over I'd say now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,529 ✭✭✭✭Dempsey


    Cant see it myself. Celtic's inability to deal with adversity & implementing an effective plan b is showing again but it takes nothing away from how good Aberdeen are playing.


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators, Regional North East Moderators Posts: 10,887 Mod ✭✭✭✭PauloMN


    Being 1 down a man against a side at home and hungry for it is always going to be difficult, especially when it was such an early sending off.

    Can't win 'em all!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,805 ✭✭✭Lennonist


    Good goal from Forrest well set up by Brown. 'mon celtic
