"I spoke to Bruno Alves and said to him, 'So this is Scottish football'." SPFL 2017/2018

If that was Derek McInnes' way of showing what he can do with a team at Ibrox, he's welcome to the manager's gig.

Saw approximately ten tedious minutes of the first half of our game due to Celtic TV's complete ineptitude, delighted to get away from there with a point.

Looks like McInnes set up a completely new formation and strategy against the team that lost to Dundee and Hamilton. Anyone paranoid would think he was throwing points to Glasgow before moving there...

Someone remind us to put "concomitant" into the thread title next season:

(also lolz at the "we didnae want him anyway" insinuations all the way through. That'll be why you've been blatantly tapping him up for weeks, aye?)

a quite preposterous institution

They're the gift that keeps on giving.

Was it just me that found it amusing hearing Angry Kris Boyd on Sportsound tonight acting as if there's no way anyone at Rangers had ever had the chance to even informally outline anything to McInnes at any point?

Boyd making a clown of himself all week (century tbh).

This wee jambo thread made me lol

I've somehow ended up in a parallel universe where Adam Rooney is arguing with William Shatner about who has the biggest balls.

🤔Would it be ‘naff to tell @17AdamRooney that my bawbells are bigger than his? #sizematters 😝 https://t.co/LSA954nJYo

THREAD TITLE FOR NEXT YEAR KLAXON!

I think i must still be drunk?

wish I was

Genuinely don’t understand what’s happened to either team

Hearts made it a physical battle early on and Celtic shat it.

Our defence has had this in them all season, never imagined Lafferty would be the one to expose it.

There's also some weird thing going on where the pitch is ridiculously slippery but only for Celtic players.

brb passing out briefly

Well, if you're going to go out, go out with a bang.

Never seen Kieran Tierney have such a pish half. Still considering sending a search party out for Boyata.

Still a hell of an achievement over the last year and a half, but.

New central defence plz.

Hell of a fall off in two years

2004–2009 Inverness Caledonian Thistle 132 (8)
2009–2012 Heart of Midlothian 87 (4)
2012–2015 Rangers 83 (5)
2015–2017 Shrewsbury Town 49 (4)
2017 Blackpool 10 (0)
2017 Skelmersdale United 1 (0)
2017 Chorley 2 (0)
2018– Tranent Juniors

fucking knew this was going to be an ian black related post ;_;

“The game has been good to me and I want to help Tranent achieve their vision, “I won’t be coming here to take my foot of the gas. I am hungry to be a success at 
Tranent. There’s no hiding place at your home club.”

“Ian is a local lad who has played at the highest level. He will go straight into the squad for our first game of 2018 at home to Dunbar on Saturday.” Tranent play in the McBookie East Premier League.

Currently sitting one place above my local Junior side in the league.

McBookie

They write themselves.

Tierney was brilliant in the wing back role tonight, like "this side is mine. Everyone else better stay the fuck away."

nice to celtic bouncing back after a bit of a lull. i like the look of big cha already.

Byeeee!!!

and hello?

HEID

:(

I'm sure the forced early changes don't help but I have no fucking clue what system we're playing here and neither do the players.

Beaten again? Rodgers out!

Sadly Liam Miller has passed away. RIP

;_; RIP Liam.

very, very sad. 36 is no age.

i used to "hate" him.

Dreadful news. RIP.

Alex McLeish? FFS.

(about to get the Scotland gig again, according to reports)

Oh God no. We may as well give up.

... yes, I know, I thought we had...

And confirmed. Fucking hell.

pffft

“I’d saved the first shot and I looked up and saw the ball going to him,” said Bain. “I just thought, ‘aw naw’. Luckily he hit the post and I was able to scramble and catch the ball before it went over the line.

Aw naw indeed.

In hysterics at that miss.

Celtic goals were all really good. Our defence was a shambles at times. Ntcham had his best game in the hoops so far.

Good to see Murty's assertion that they will never have a better chance to beat us. Fingers crossed he's right.

Boyata, say no more, a manager like Mourinho would have subbed him after 15 minutes.

Morelos looking like a baw-faced toddler who'd dropped his lollipop added to the hilarity - mind you, he always looks like that.

Our defence is mince, both of their goals were howlers.

incredibly satisfying and important win though.

Still chuckling at that miss. Boyata gives me the screaming heebie-jeebies. Collum doing the "12th man" tradition proud, along with his comedy Tory sidekick with the flag.

i honestly couldnae believe the linesman, seems like he lost his head there and the mask slipped big time

Aye, think he forgot he wasn't in the stands.

Can't find it just now to link it, but the clips I've seen of the Rangers TV commentary is hilarious.

Fat footballer corner: Mark Yardley gets a street named after him:
