  1. OUT AGAIN HAHAHAHAHAHA

    From css, on Thu 29 Oct 8:43AM

  2. david number 39. with all due respect your testicles­ are chattering. these are virtually the same players­ that GS had. the players mowbray has brought in has­ decreased the overall standard of the team. perhaps you­ need to take a realistic view of what is actually­ happening at celtic park. mowbray has added nothing of­ substance to the team. how many of these players have­ been responsible for winning 3 out of the last 4 league­ titles?
    in strachen we had a leader in mowbray we have­ a liability.
    a manager brings his ability, man­ management skills, techniques, knowledge and leadership­ to the team. the team follows his instructions. look­ at our performances and results, they are down to­ mowbray, no one else.

  4. This is my story this is my song,
    Follow the Hearts and­ you can't go wrong,
    For some say the Celtic and­ Rangers are grand,
    But the boys in Maroon are the best­ in the land.

    "Hearts, Hearts Glorious­ Hearts".
    Well Done The Super Jambo's, Very­ proud of you.

    M.C.F.C & Hearts Til' I Die.

  16. re:-frankie the bear,
    perhaps byou need to realise that­ a maqnager can only work with what he's got. Apart­ from McCourt there is not one of this lot of garbage­ who deserve the name of Football Player .The rest of­ this team are a total waste of space'

    From David, on Wed 28 Oct 9:51PM

  17. GIRUY Ya pegselling bin-dippers

  18. its about time mowbray started with the same players­ for 2 games in a row, does he really have a clue on how­ to run our team. Am i the only fan who thinks­ n'geumo is a total waste of time. badly lacking a­ goalscorer and a leader in the middle of the park

    From mark, on Wed 28 Oct 9:50PM

  19. Hope hearts or someone else can surge above these old­ firm europa punching bags. Haha.
