Ooooooft! Oscar Piastri’s probably just handed the F1 Drivers’ Championship to Lando Norris! 😬😬😬 Oscar since the summer break has been a shadow of the driver he was earlier in the season. #BrazilianGP
What an absolute thunderbastard of a hit from Callum McGregor!!
Martin O’Neill and Shaun Maloney serving us 45 minutes of peak, undiluted, purified Angeball. You absolutely love to see it 🍀
MAX VER-FUCKING-STAPPEN. That is all. #USGP
The tifosi are absolutely loving Max ahead of the McLarens on the podium, especially Lando 😂 I can’t quite fathom a bunch of Italians turning up to cheer on Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton but getting fully behind Max Verstappen of all people instead, but I love it! #ItalianGP
David Croft’s spent years pointing out every hint of a jeer or boo from the crowd at races when it’s being directed at Max Verstappen. Now it’s happening to someone else, a Brit no less, he’s apparently unclear whether it might’ve even happened. Meanwhile Monza’s singing Max’s name 😘👌 #ItalianGP
What a drive from Max 👏👏👏👏👏 Totally disagree with the team orders at McLaren, a ridiculous call but Oscar’ll still wrap it up by the end of the season regardless. #ItalianGP
Come on Max Emilian Verstappen 🦁🇳🇱 #ItalianGP
The best national anthem of the year done properly as per fucking usual. 🇮🇹 #ItalianGP
All against a backdrop of the Celtic board having tens of millions sat gathering interest in the bank, seemingly unwilling to trust their manager to recruit with it, and seemingly unwilling to find players to spend the money on while guys like Kyogo left 8 months ago and still hasn’t been replaced.
One final reminder from back in the Twitter days - some of us were insisting this Celtic board needed removed and a competent recruitment model installed. As soon as Ange started to win games 3/4 years ago, most of the support told us to stop being negative and back the team. Here we are, again. 🙃
Maeda’s started the season horribly, and Adam Idah’s as horrible as he’s always been - never a Celtic striker even if we’d paid half what we did for him. We’re paper-thin on the wings and at full-back, as well as up top. This side’ll struggle even at Europa League level. The club reaps what it sows.
Brendan Rodgers and this Celtic side shouldn’t be exempt from some serious criticism - a manager unable to get a tune out of a bang-average looking squad over 3 and a half hours of football. Rodgers looks like he’s off next May and the squad looks absolutely threadbare in places.
Top 3 contender for worst night in our modern history. I’d expect the Celtic board to do what they always do when the gamble to reach the UCL without recruiting doesn’t pay off - a few deals’ll go cold, and we’ll be after 1 or 2 cheap loans from EPL clubs by this weekend to fill some glaring holes.
Genuinely one of the worst European performances we’ve seen from Celtic in almost a week. Onto an absolute lottery of a penalty shootout now against a side ranked 315th in Europe.
Superb news! Although it looks like Max is staying at Red Bull for the foreseeable future. George Russell's Merc contract extension will already be signed by now.
Horrible game for the most part. Into extra time we go!
As always. Still two or three better centre halves at the club than Scales but clearly the manager isn’t especially convinced by any of them for some reason.
BIG ANGE WINS THE EUROPA LEAGUE IN HIS SECOND SEASON! GET IT RIGHT UP THE ENGLISH PRESS! 🍀
Come on big Ange. 45 minutes away from a European trophy and Spurs’ first trophy in 17 years.
Not to be for Max Verstappen in a Red Bull which looks like it was behind the Merc pace this weekend, let alone McLaren who were in a different formula. Max isn’t winning the title this year, but I’m so glad it’s Oscar who’ll win it and not Lando.
Oh aye, by now he’d comfortably be on the bench or sat in the stands, if not out on loan in the Scottish Ch’ship/League of Ireland to find game time. The guy won the lottery with Celtic’s lack of recruitment a couple of years ago, then won it again with the contract extension.
He’s Irish though, so you can’t have a go, even though he should be 2 or 3 years into his Aberdeen career by now.
Half time, 1-0 Rangers. Liam Scales as pathetic and half-arsed a defender for Rangers’ opener as he was for the one 15 minutes earlier which was ruled offside. All this while Trusty/Nawrocki are sat on the bench for some reason.
MAX VER-FUCKING-STAPPEN! 👏👏👏👏
What an absolute machine of a driver! Drags a very average Red Bull to a pole position around 27 corners while others in the best car on the grid are binning it into the wall. Go on Max! 🇳🇱🦁 #SaudiArabianGP
No harm to Yuki, but the Driver of The Day vote needs to just be retired at this point. The fact that Verstappen, Antonelli or Albon didn’t win but a home driver with a pretty lukewarm race wins makes it a bit pointless. #JapaneseGP
What an absolutely world class drive from Max Verstappen to win the Japanese Grand Prix again, this time keeping two superior McLarens behind him for every single lap. What a guy! 🇳🇱🦁
It’s no longer even funny seeing Barry Ferguson’s Rangers unable to win a game at home. It just makes our last two results/performances against them, especially the one at Celtic Park, even less acceptable or easy to explain.
What an absolute shocker of a day again from Celtic in the Derby, for the second time in a row. A 20-minute spell after the restart threatened to rescue it, but bookended by some of the most timid and clueless football you’ll ever see any Celtic team play.
FUCKING YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
