Supported Barca since I was 9 and lived in Spain......almost 30 years ago.
My wife's Spanish, got married in Barcelona and I have loads of in-laws there...so I'm more than qualified to comment.

You are no more qualified to comment on here as anyone else. Get over yourself.

That's pathetic and you know that it is. Barca are an outstanding team. Celtic played out of their skin. Your post is as ridiculous as it is unwarranted.

Not really........what's the point of playing football to defend for 90 minutes?

Celtic took the lead. They defended right up to the point of scoring down the other end.

Still, at least you'll have the SPL wrapped up by Christmas...

You obviously dislike Celtic, messcotti, and it's showing. You look like a spoilt child wanting them to play how Barcelona play so they'll get rolled over 4 or 5 nil. Diddums.

Good delivery from the child neglecting Mulgrew, lucky OG. Apart from that, what did Celtic offer?

[CIE560]

Incredible. If you were the Celtic boss, how would you approach it?

I love this thread, what's a Mulgrew?

Not at all. I enjoyed the game to an extent, I just wish more teams would have a bit more balls. No Pique, Puyol or Alves...a rookie and a midfielder in central defence and a left winger at right back...poor show!

I dunno why I'm defending Celtic, I only just tumbled over the border into Scotland for the very fist time a couple of months ago.

But, really, this Mascalin chap is a right muppet. It's like a Man. United fan coming onto the Torquay United thread to crow about a narrow win. Utterly and totally pointless.

Indeed. I suspect it's a case of not having it their own way and a dislike for Celtic.

Imagine it ended 1-1, the toys would be out of the pram then.

If I were Neil Lennon, I'd shave my hair off.

Like I said, Barca's defence is makeshift at the moment, look at Depor on Saturday...they had a go and were unlucky not to get something from the game.

Celtic didn't have a go...if they did, they might have got more than the 0 points they ended up with, yet somehow this is something to be proud of?

It's a Celtic player.

I suppose I just can't get the mentality that losing in that manner is something to be proud of...

Not at all...I'm not a fair weather fan...I actually wanted Celtic to make more of a game of football out of it.

You realise that all 14 players that played last night cost less then jordi alba?

[messcotti]

Plus, what's with the Irish Tricolor on the tracksuit? Neil's certainly got the Mature Ned look down to a tee....

And? Remember Rubin Kazan? (That's a Russian Football Team, not a Right Back!)

Really?

Proud of one shot on target? Proud of 18% of the ball? Proud of an OG? Proud of 10 men behind the ball?

Poor. Try playing football.

Forca Barca!!

Yes really

Barcelona are possibly the best team in the world.

Do you not think Celtic would have liked to have played a more attacking game?

Celtic played to the best of their abilities and came close to what would have been, for Scottish football, a fantastic result.

I've generally found Barca fans to have a bit of humility about them, you are obviously the exception.
