"Stick That Clipboard Up Yer....", Celtic Gain Point Against Hearts

Saturday, 13 December 08, 01:37 PM · Hailed by LordOfTheWing

Celtic did honour it's Greatest Ever Player today. Not, that you would have known aboot it. A low key unveiling was the order of the day to ensure that were wisnny great crushing up Kerrydale Street. I'm sure, the couple of hundred who saw the unveiling will recall the tale for future generations.

No statue could EVER do the wee man credit. Some are disappointed that it disnny capture an iconic pose. I'm pleased that it shows a sense of humour wie a rowing boat being included in the plinth.

Still, the wee man is best captured on film.

You Surprise Me, Mr Bond.

The team on the 5 game unbeaten run, close to administration and players playing to be included in the 'Bargin, But Not Fully Reduced' section of the up-coming fire-sale in Gorgie, deserve all the credit that will come their way after their draw at CP. After taking the lead through an offside, and very impressive, Andrew Driver, it looked like they would see the game out comfortably against a Celtic side, that for 60mins suffered from major clipboard failure. But, Captain Marvel(sic), Mick McManus scored to equalise for Celtic to ensure that it wissny all bad.

Plaudits to Berra, Jonsson and Current Bond Villian, Shabba Lazslo, who out clipboarded WGS wie such ease that you would think he was a decent incumbent of Heart Of Lithuania. Also, I hope Robbie Neilson gets Aiden McGeady oot his back pocket in time for him to get the bus back home to Embra. M.I.B, Charlie Richmond, can also get added to the list of the Heart Of Lithuania players that did well. Ignoring, blatant time-wasting and not sending off Kingston ensured that he will be welcome at this weeks lodge meeting.

Still, at least oor, under pressure, manager, who has won only 37 points oot the last 42, was truthful as he faced the press, wondering why he changed a system that seemed to suit the talents of McGeady, Nakamura and Maloney for a Blackboard Duster standard 4-4-2: "It was a poor first half by us, one of the worst performances for a long, long time. Hearts did well and were physically strong but we were too predictable. We built ourselves up to average in the second half and had a lot of possession around their box so it was far more exciting." he said thanking his lucky stars Gary Calderbuer started finding Georgios Samaras wie long punts.

56% possession, 2 shots on and 6 off target, compared to Heart Of Lithuania's 4 on and 3 off and a corner count that if it was a boxing match would have been stopped after the 5th round, 2 to 9 in favour of the away mob, had Paul Hartley boasting: "We did not have too many clear-cut chances but I think we deserved the equaliser on pressure. " ignoring we were 2nd best for long spells and brought on Lee Naylor to change the game.

At least he was sitting in the corner marked 'The Bhoy Done Good' along wie the other last 30 performers, Gary Calderbuer, Andy Hinkel and Samaras. Maloney is now sitting in the Hessellink Suite wie Hammie-Ouch, that rules him oot for a few weeks. "He just pulled up. It's a hamstring and not very good," moaned oor manager.

Twitter (Heh, go and read my pre-match comment) and Profile.

Still could be worse. You could be this school teacher. 

Forza.

Thanks to Number 7 on KDS for the picture, not the one marked Celtic.
