the best wee league in the world SPFL 21/22

joe hart will be on dis ting

continued on from can't think of a good title: SPFL 2020/2021

When I look at Celtic - which I try to avoid tbh - I just see Le Guen-era Rangers.

shhh

don't think we have any chance in the league this season. dont mind ange as far as i can tell - like him bamming up the press - but i feel he's on a hiding to nothing as there was too much of a rebuild needed.

feels funny to be happy that joe hart has signed for us. always thought he was a hugely overrated big haddy and a bit of a dick - love him now of course - but he's such a huge improvement over what we had.

james mccarthy signing almost pissed me off, should've signed him over a decade ago, when he was playing for hamilton, cunts a tim from castlemilk ffs.

i seem to remember we didn't take on mccarthy as a youth because he was too wee. which also boils the blood. neanderthal scottish football men

hahahaha

Pretty good results for Scottish teams so far - Hibs could do with a goal though.

... but not for the other team.

Some result for the saints

I’m delighted. A tiny tinge of disappointment we conceded. Looking forward to next week.

fuck! that was rough. celtic all at sea really until edouard came on. massive result against a quality outfit

mad transfer window for celtic. big rebuild.

got rid of a couple of my bete noirs in hendry and christie.

french eddy the eagle (sorry)

kinda feel there's no way giakoumakis is any good

not often Celtic and rangers drop points on the same day. although Celtic not winning away is getting to be quite a predictable occurrence.

the dom debacle round parkhead way points to more banter years to come.

there's absolutely no chance that giakoumakis isn't 100% dung

Progressed from embarrassing themselves in the Champions League to embarrassing themselves in the Europa League.

Worst thing is that this isn't remotely surprising

kyogo 🙏

back to CP tonight - looking forward to maybe seeing giakoumakis, hatate, and maeda in the starting line up

hatate is a pler

should have brought ramsey on

Always wary of false dawns of new messiahs, but Hatate looks the absolute business.

that felt magic yesterday. didn't even manage to watch it (was working) but just checking the score and then watching the highlights were a joy.

still buzzing really. even found myself enjoying an oasis song earlier

lots more games to go though

aye, can either be "that was the night we won the league" or "mind that good game we beat the huns in that shite season"

So, as per fucking usual, Celtic are going to have to beat Rangers on their own as none of these other numpties are up to the task.

hearts looked pretty good in both second halves against celtic (at parkhead and tynecastle) - can rarely rely on them to do a job against the rangers II though

celtic just need to take it one game at a time - still think they'll drop more points. thankfully getting a bit more depth back for the bench - some finds this year in CCV, jota, o'riley, hatate, kyogo, jura and the new firmware updates we signed for rogic and bitton

there's absolutely no chance that giakoumakis isn't 100% dung

he's been playing well recently (dundee utd game notwithstanding)

Giakoumskis is good only because his is one of the names it's just fun to hear in a Scottish accent on Sportscene.

See also Baningime (pronounced to rhyme with thingummy) and JakAlnwick (all one word).

some amazing accidental partridge this week in the cinch

Well, that was a season that happened. We were economical with goals this season, just as well we saved them all for tonight just to be on the safe side.

Nothing short of another 9-0 will satisfy me.

we want 9

I'll settle for Morelos being sent off in disgrace... again.

Watching this Rangers team I have no idea how they've managed all these good results in Europe, they are total dogshit.

it is a mystery

That touch and finish from Jota were excellent.

Huns go absolutely mental as Dundee United sing 🎤🎶Lizzy's in a box 🎶🎤 as the minute silence was meant to be happening 🤣🤣🤣 pic.twitter.com/AHINFDpoTC

nice!

Awesome. I'm not that surprised though, Dundee has always been fairly free of Orange bastards, unusually for Scotland. They're more into Tangerine than Orange... apart from the marmalade, of course.

Can someone please put me out of my misery and tell me what tune "Lizzy's In A Box" is sung to, because it isn't "Living In A Box" but it's something really famous which I must have heard thousands of times and it's driving me crazy.

KC & the Sunshine Band - Give It Up, innit?

Easter Road today.

Go on the originals😎 pic.twitter.com/UqZnp3Xmji

xp thank you! I was singing the na-na-na-na-na-na bit, but the new lyrics had completely wiped the original from my brain

Van Bronckhorst out.

Tom D.: Plz share your thoughts on Cameron Carter-Vickers. Imo he did not get enough playing time for the USA in Qatar and I just learned he's Celtic's captain, which surprised me.

He seems a pretty solid player to me.

Barkas - still absolutely shite. Cheers pal!

Shocking penalty decision that.

Aye, I'd have been raging if it had been at the other end and given against us.

How is Daizen now pure shite when nearly everyone else is playing better than they have for ages?

Commentator "there's two balls on the pitch"
Bloke in pub "aye, and Maeda cannae control either of them"

I genuinely think tonight might be the first time I've actually seen Barkas make a save.

Just enjoying the replay of Porto's goal on the other telly - absolutely howling from Butland

Walk into any pub in Glasgow and you'll see a guy who looks exactly like the Utrecht manager.

We're still playing shite btw.

Oh aye, but Utrecht are shiter.

Fuck me, that was baws. Schmeichel is terrible.

And then TNT forgot to put ten bob in the meter and we all missed Trusty's goal

lol I thought that was only me.

Really could have done without the commentator pointing out that was MON's first European home win as Celtic manager for 21 years. As I am but a child, I can only assume I misheard him.

Anyway, still in Europe despite the Liz Truss-esque blip. There's a lesson there.

In other news, oh The Rangers are shite

Following former Celtic manager Ronny Deila taking up his role as the new head coach of Israeli club Maccabi Tel Aviv, former Scottish striker Kenny Miller has also joined Maccabi Tel Aviv as an assistant coach.

lol, Kenny Miller as assistant coach is hilarious. The guy is so technically braindead it's a miracle he manages to breath.

Cosign

St Mirren 1 Hearts 0.

Here we fuckin' go.

This Dundee game has been brutal

Let's buy some more forwards who can't score and add to the half dozen crappy wingers we already have and everything will be fine.

junior adamu more like junior? damn, dude

lmao that fuckin rules

Haha, I made this happen by the power of negative thinking

me, 90'+5': sport, just as life, is an exercise in cruelty and self-abuse
me, 92': YEAHHHHH EAT SHIT DUNDEEEEEEE

Also by buying another pint at 88 minutes just in case

I'm having to follow this on text as it's not on any streaming service and BBC Scotland only had the first half commentary before switching over to Graeme Mackay and his Scottish Dance Band.

I hope it's actually Graeme Mitchell and his Scottish Dance Band as he's married to my cousin #teuchter

I think from memory of searching for games in London that Premier Sports who carry the Scottish Cup also carry GAA and therefore it's usually on in Irishy pubs, for future reference

Definitely Graeme Mackay, I'd recognise his Scottish Dance Band anywhere.

Genuinely amazed that Douglas Ross has the brass neck to turn up anywhere in public ever, let alone running the line in a televised football game.

Obvs never in doubt, in MON we trust, etc. Let's hope we're stumbling to the end of the season with a back up plan coalescing in the background. And some top PR in signing Perrie Edwards' boyfriend as a free agent gap filler for paparazzi action.

The Ox and Stephen Welsh to the rescue.

happy for the ox, he's had a rough time of it but always seems one of the good ones. and a great player when fit.

what a week, what a season

No escaping the fact that this Celtic team is shite.

schmeichel and nancy cost us this league

Too many mediocre players; players who aren't mediocre like Maeda and Hatate who can't be bothered; players who are past their best like Schmeichel and, dare I say it, McGregor.

maeda seems clinically depressed

… and not enough players who like to score goals.

just need to see if tounekti has a couple of brothers who arent doing anything right now

schmeichel gesturing that the free kick is going over has tilted me so bad

maeda seems clinically depressed

He only has to play for them, we have to watch them.

araujooooooooo puro pinche scenes carnalllllllll

LOL getting ridiculous now.

easy

Absolute scenes.

outcome never in doubt

get it up ye, dodds & mccann

nygrenyahu is a G/A mentality monster

Scales and Trusty are dire.

schmeichel worse than a man down

Directly responsible for two goals. Could be worse, could have lost 4-1 at home to Nottingham Forest.

...and we would have.
