HFC; 1875. CFC; 1888. Do the maths. First to wear the green etc, except HFC were re-formed with the intention of accepting all comers, regardless of colour, creed or religion.


And you scoffed when Deek returned to ER

Even more amazing considering the masonic referees who operate in the SPL who have a clear anti-Sellick agenda.

Wondered when you'd be reappearing

It's shaping upto to be a quite a season, teams aren't that feared of celtic and rangers now and seem more intent on having a go raher than sit back which is refreshing to see.

I just think the SPL is brilliant, I mean, Rod Wallace 40 goals in a season, amazing. That's more than 'Choccy' scored for me on 'Man Utd in Europe' on my Amiga in 1992.

Hail! Hail!

Thoroughly deserved win for the Hoops. Not much in it over the ninety minutes but extra time was so one sided, it was unbelievable.

It's a good job for Rangers that big Sam Harris is still utterly hopeless or it would have been four or five.

Well on Pre-Season form it looks like Celtic have finally got themselves in gear after the departure of Gordon Strachan and seem to be playing good football and have a more assured defence, The signing of Marc-Antoine Fortune looks impressive and he could be the perfect foil for Scott McDonald a hard working forward who looks to drop to pick up the ball leaving McDonald the room to exploit, Daniel Fox is a supposed highly rated Left-Back which is a position where we have looked weak with Lee Naylor recently and he's also meant to be deadly from set pieces which helps cover the loss of Shunsuke Nakamura, Łukasz Załuska looks a fantastic signing should Artur Boruc go off the boil again like last season and provides great competition. A number of players will be looking for a big year after some below par performances last season especially the likes of Artur Boruc & Aiden McGeady and in Pre-Season we look to have seen a rejuvented Massimo Donati & Chris Killen, I believe under the guidance of Tony Mowbray the SPL Title will be coming back to Celtic Park...

Here's hoping.

Consistency let celtic down last season and bad results against the gers. I'd love celtic to do the business this season though.

Forecast - Celtic or Rangers. Doze.

You never know this could be St Mirren's year!!!!!!

Its all about St Johnstone this year!

I dont really care since My Gretna got booted out

Give me Scottish Division Three over that SPL any day.

I agree 100% and with the also rans like Elgin and Albion Rovers doing well in the Cup on Saturday it could be a really competitive season down there and they could do what East Striling did last year and be up there challenging.

Who cares as long as ICT win Div 1

And I do not think that will be happening sometime soon....Dundee for me I'm affraid

Piece of cake.

Would do it in a double with Pontefract but alas they do not have a high enough ranked football team..nor Eccles for that matter

Not looking good at half time for the hoops against Dinamo, despite them scoring the 1st goal Celtic have had chances to grab a goal or 2 themselves and have looked the better team. Dinamo's pace upfront is causing a few problems.

Did you manage to watch the game?...
I never like the idea of going to Russia trying to win a game, Dynamo have a record of 7(W) 3(D) 5(L) in 15 Home Games this season so they are definitely beatable, Hopefully Scott Brown and Steve McManus will be fit for that one...

yeah,there is a site where you can watch it for free. pm if you want the site as I'm not sure I'm allowed to post it, should be able to view it next week to.

Celtic had plenty of chances and had they of got that break through I think they would have scored the 2nd. Considering Dynamo have already played so many games this year Celtic played very well and after the goal Dynamo never really looked like scoring again. 2nd leg will be tough, I'm gona go for Celtic to go through on penalties.

Hows Shatics European campaign goin?

Wasn't good. We drew 2 and lost 1 on our Austrian Tour

The second leg is live on BBC Alba apparently so you will be able to get it on any sky box.
