Happy in a way that sellik are bein hammered (0-6 at present), but sad in that it shows how many miles off the pace Scottish football is with the rest of the world

7-0 now their worst ever European result
 
Barcelona play football on a completely different level to any other team or country on the planet..Celtic were just the latest team to face a mauling from them and they certainly won't be the last. Pace, movement, skill, finishing and workrate on a scale that no other football team in the world can emulate, they are an absolute joy to watch and play the game at the highest standard you can ever really reach.

No real disgrace for Celtic losing so heavily to that side. I can't understand for the life of me though why Rodgers has decided to drop Craig Gordon, an international class goalkeeper, for Dorus de Vries. Celtic made life difficult for themselves with some poor defending and a chronic lack of awareness but overall it was a complete mismatch. Missing a penalty didn't help either.

You can't compare Spanish Football with Scottish Football especially at the level Barcelona play at...Scottish football would be best compared with other countries of similar size and population like Croatia or Denmark.

Tee-Hee!

In light of the hun mutants untold joy at this result though, they`d maybe be better asking themselves what Barca would`ve done to Warburton`s team tonight....

Goaded them probably. Maybe by scoring a dozen or more.

But the The Huns would have shown restraint for eleven seconds then burnt Barca to the ground.

yeh I know...but it just reinforces the knowledge our win in europe against barca will probably have been our last :sadwalk:
 
I`m long past caring about European competition. It`s moved on so much we`ll never be able to compete. So i say, who gives a fuck really.

When we qualify then our fans will get one or two drink filled jaunts to somewhere on the continent. Braw. Then after getting humped, we try again next season for a wee midweek break or two.

UEFA and the 'big' leagues are conspiring to ensure that Euro competition and it`s cash is a closed shop just for them. I think Celtic fans are now beginning to realise this. The outside investment in our game (particularly from TV) is so pathetic it`s ridiculous to think that our clubs will ever agian compete on a level stage in Europe.

Accept it i say. Accept what we have and compete well at our level here. Be the best we can be and go for the cups and as high a league finish as possible, then enjoy any forays into Europe that come our way. But never take it seriously. Those days are long gone.

That is true as well. I cant even remember the last time I bothered watching euro highlights and only have a passing interest in the EPL. Don't go out of my way either to watch SPL highlights now they don't feature Hibs.
 
It was tremendous. Hopefully Man City do the same to them in two weeks time as well.
 
Wife while watching the demolition on the news.

Have they [celtc] not got a goalie?

:giggle:

If he'd done the sensible thing and played both of them they might have kept it down to four or five.
