...a bit disco Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Listening to the Norwich game on BBC sport and as the Celtic game drew to a close we were treated to Alison Walker commentating.

Guest oldcastlerock2012 Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Given we've had 2 (and even 3 with mchattie's) non pens given against us this season it'll be interesting if the media will again support celtic's inevitable camapign against the refs after just one dodgy decision against them.

Footballfirst Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Morton for the cup. For the last three seasons, then team that beat Celtic has gone on to win the cup. (St Mirren, Kilmarnock & Rangers) The last team to break the sequence was ........ you've guessed it, Hearts. Beat Celtic in the Q/F then lost to St Mirren in the S/F.

NotVincentGuerain Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 the bbc stats show - morton had 1 shot on target. -celtic had 67% possession, 25 shots, 10 on target. 27 corners to 2 this celtic team might not score in the champions league this season. and they were "unlucky" against AC Milan.

leginten Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 He's a reporter not a commentator. He was commentating only because it went to extra time. He's paid to broadcast - we suffer endless hours of his inarticulate, incoherent attempts at communication. You'd have thought that in terms of being on the radio he'd fall at the first hurdle in the selection process as a result of not being able to speak English. "Clean-cut chances" is another of his recent favourites. WTF is a "clean-cut" chance? One that doesn't get reeking every night or jerk off in front of the computer and always manages to look dapper in the morning? Bin this cretin now.

Perhaps some heard him earlier re Manchester United with his ill informed comments and this from a man whose career is in football..........taliking about cut backs and how his 'friend' was having to work within a strict budget as things were tight at Old Trafford................... Except Moyes had just been asked about a ?90 million bid for Bale and did not deny it and ................. 'Just lagging a tiny bit behind Real in the financial stakes, Manchester United are projecting that they will generate more than $680 million this season after breaking their revenue record while winning a 20th English title. United pointed to the enduring success of their commercial operation in helping to maintain the club as a force on and off the pitch, as they face the challenge of David Moyes replacing Alex Ferguson after more than 26 years as manager. Owned by the American-based Glazer family, United reported revenue rising by 13 percent to $578 million in the year to June 30. The club expects it to soar to between $669 million and $686 million in 2013-14. Our commercial business continues to be a very powerful engine of growth enabling the team to continue to be successful Ed Woodward, Exec vice chairman United reported a net profit of $27 million from $7 million the year before, while the cash balance rose by a third to $151 million.' Hardly a team/club with money worries unless you are Chick Young trying to defend his friend with a couple of little porkies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floyd Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Can't play it at Parkhead/Hampden due to Commonwealth games. Wrong! Unless Celtic are planning playing their remaining league games elsewhere this season?? Hampden is getting a running track installed, hence it can't be used for either the league cup or Scottish cup. Parkhead can't be used for their champions league qualifier as it clashes with opening ceremony. No need to thank me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floyd Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Park head is used for opening ceremony and media/ training facilities, Hampden for athletics and ibrox for rugby sevens, all no go. In July!!!!!! FFS, the opening ceremony is on 23rd July, unless the SFA have gone all Sepp Blatter on us then I'm sure that the league cup final in March, yes March, a whole 13 weeks minimum before the opening ceremony will take place at either Ibrox or Parkhead. Where you guessed it, both will still be playing league games. The Scottish Cup final will again take place at either Ibrox or Parkhead in May, yes May, a whole 6-8 weeks minimum before the actual opening ceremony begins and guess what, up until the week before, both will still be playing league games there. The only game to be affected by the commonwealth games will be Celtic's qualifier for the champions league which takes place in July, slap bang in the middle of the games, hence the need for them to potentially use Murrayfield. There is no danger of the SFA holding either cup final at Murrayfield regardless of who gets there, as there will be a stadium free in Glasgow and they won't want to give money to rugby rather than football.

The final is 6 months away, the choices pre tournament would have been Celtic Park/Ibrox or in the case of an Old Firm final Murrayfield. I imagine Celtic Park was first choice (due to not having a home game that weekend) but they couldn't announce that until Celtic went out. Since no club teams played at the Millennium stadium it was easy for the FA to announce the finals would be there when Wembley was being done up. I imagine if the Millennium stadium wasn't available to the FA, they would have held off announcing the Final venue until Man United/City/Arsenal etc were out of the tournament.

Celtic only went out a matter of hours ago and with 6 months to go till the final they maybe don't think its high priority to make a final venue announcement before the 3rd round is even completed.
