The Celts v Barca - Preamble

Football - the Beautiful game.

Celtic Park will in a few hours time provide the perfect backdrop.

Those lucky enough to be there - MAKING the atmosphere - will see some of the world's best players in action (you know the names...). Countless other Tims, like myself, will be kicking every ba' and singing every word in front of telly and internet screens in EVERY corner of the globe.

This is what all the hard slog was for - all those crappy games at Falkirk and Dundee and Inverness and Govan, in hail, rain AND freezing sleet.
So that we can be present on the Big Stage - up there with the best.

The working clothes are laid aside, 'cos...
... this eveing we don the guid suits
... tonight we dine at Paradise!

Make them suffer Bhoys!!!

Starting lineup could look like this:
-----------Artur
Hartley--Mick--Caldwell--Naylor
Naka--Robson--Donati--Aiden
----Skippy---------Jan

I expect to see Sammy strutting his stuff as from 60minutes.

That`s exciting! A message from Martek in Houston. How y`all doing?
Hopefully the team can defeat the nerves and give us all a display to be proud of.
Come on Celts!

Young Caddis gets the nod.
Robson and Hartley replace Brown (suspended) and Donati (starts on the bench).

Good luck the Bhoys !!!
