Celtic vs Liverpool - Pre match thread

[Mystic]

I like BT sports coverage.

I like BT sports coverage.

Really? You have David James looking like a tramp and mumbling into his blue sweater. Macca looking like Jabba The Hutt and cackling at all the shit jokes the anchor guy is saying. It's like they are 'trying' to create a kind of TMS version of footy coverage - All relaxed, informal and jovial. Instead is just comes across as contrived, cringworthy and utterly shite.

 

[mark1975]

Me too, it's been decent so far. And for all the fashionable slating of Owen, he's been ok to listen to, his comments about Fowler during the testimonial were incredibly respectful, given the commentator tried to push the "fans loved him more than you" point.

As opposed to how brilliant the likes of Sky and ESPN have been in recent years? It's almost refreshing. People just slate stuff like this, because.

 

[Red Astaire]

I don't mind Sky. ESPN can be a bit grating but this is a whole new level of turd TV.

100 miles an hour here.

 

[Fabio]

Allen looking bright and direct.

I'm liking it

 

[Whirly]

Maybe it's just me, but it feels like Downing often picks out the pass that's most convenient to play for himself, regardless of how unprepared or poorly positioned his teammates are.

 

[Fabio]

Aspas not liking being outmuscled

 

[Aidan O' Neill]

That was shit

 

[the_dude]

poor by wisdom, unlucky by mignolet

 

[Modo]

Fuck me...Balde scores.
1-0 Celtic

 

[jon545660]

Fuck off Downing.

 

[Fabio]

And we're losing

Downing fuck up, wisdom beaten easily, mignolet made himself big, saved it, but sadly looped up and straight in to the net

 

[Mors]

Was that rolo or wisdom that fucked that up? My stream's a bit dodgy

 

[Modo]

It's not even their best team!

 

[Fabio]

It was Downing mors

 

[Fabio]

And downing nearly scored..

 

[Mors]

And we're losing

Wisdom then, answers my question.

 

[Modo]

Hit it you fucking cunt

 

[Fabio]

Coutinho unlucky, should have scored. Wonderful movement and wonderful vision from Johnson

 

[Mors]

It was Downing mors

He started the fuck up, but the fucking sloppy defending having a 'bit of a jog' next to him and was out of position.
Ah well, we'll have to win 5-1 now.

 

[jon545660]

Going behind seems to have woken us up.

 

[Fabio]

Why's Gerrard being booed?

And downing shoots and a great save denies

 

[Fabio]

Least it sounds like booing

 

[jon545660]

Anyone know why Celtic fans are booing Gerrard?

 

[Modo]

Lucas doing well.

 

[Fabio]

Johnson missing a one on one from a slightly tricky angle

 

[TSD]

Ooh, another chance. We're really settling in now.

 

[Fabio]

Lucas doing well.

Since the goal he's had fuck all to do
