Loving KKK chat, some of them seriously think that we are in good form because JC is reading their site about tactics and formations.

 

:doh:

 

Ach some on BB, dinnae be harsh loon, some right tactical geniueses o'er there. Seems only right that JC would be paying heed to their advice ;)

Utretch however I sense might be an issue.

 

I don't think so Al. I reckon that's a step down for him.  He's managed Willem II Tillburg and Nijmegen in Holland, is Utrecht a bigger job than either of them? Is it a bigger job than the Dons? I wouldn't have thought so.  However, it did say on Setanta today that the Director of Football at Utrecht is Hans van Breukelen who is a good friend of JC's so that may sway him.

 

However, I'm not sure if that's a good friend to JC as Jimmy Nic is, or a good friend to JC as Martin Jol, Arsene wenger, Fergie, Pele, Cruyff, Zizou, van Basten, God, Rijkaard, Bergkamp, Jesus, Rensenbrink, van de Kerkhoff brothers, Ghandi and Jaap Stam are to him.

I loved Strachan's comments on BBC's match report....

 

"The thing that let us down is that they scored four goals from four free-kicks and we have to see if there is a common denominator there and eradicate it.

 

"I feel sorry for Mark Brown, because he has not had a save to make and has not been able to show his ability."

 

eh?  I counted at least four saves he had to make!

 

GIRUY ye wee shite.

To be fair, JC is a good friend of Gandy's.

Jimmy Calderwood says referee Dougie McDonald would have awarded a penalty had Zander Diamond not scored a crucial third goal in a 4-2 win over Celtic.

 

The Celtic bench were left angry, believing the whistle had already gone for a foul against Aberdeen.

 

But the Dons manager sought clarification from McDonald.

 

"Asking afterwards, he said he was going to give a penalty and then the linesman said it was a perfectly good goal," Calderwood told BBC Sport.

 

"I thought it was a perfect goal, but then Dougie blew the whistle and I thought it must have been a foul or something and a free-kick for Celtic."

 

Television replays suggest that a whistle was sounded around the time the ball crossed the line.  It was disallowed. The referee pointed for a free-kick

 

But Celtic manager Gordon Strachan insisted that the goal should not have stood after Diamond, who later also scored Aberdeen's fourth, dived to head into the net under pressure from Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink.

 

"We heard the whistle," said Strachan. "It was disallowed. The referee pointed for a free-kick.

 

"Jimmy accepted it was a disallowed goal. It was astonishing to see the Aberdeen players. They accepted it was a free-kick - and then they were celebrating.

 

"Unfortunately for us, somehow it materialised that the radio communication broke down for the referee to the fourth official for 10 minutes after it.

 

"And then we were given a kind of scrambled message after 10 minutes it started working again, so that was unfortunate.

 

"Everybody in the stadium thought the goal was disallowed."

 

 

Bit it wisna you fucking prick :thumbsup:

the first one was a free kick in our own half, the second was cleared twice by celtic, when does it stop being a free kick and become open play?
