Back on the Road

I am back on the road following Celtic this mid-week but it has not worked out the way I would have liked it. Today I left my house in the early hours of the morning to catch the 100x bus from my home town in Drogheda to Dublin Airport to catch an early flight to Glasgow before making my way with fellow Celtic fans to Perth for the re-arranged fixture with St. Johnstone.

It could have been all so different if Dermot Desmond and the Celtic board had the same ambition as the Celtic support and brought enough quality players to the club in time to bed in and prepare for the Champions League qualifier. We could have been in Greece to play AEK Athens last night enjoying the sunshine.

Now before the happy clappers have a go at me, the Celtic players do have to take a good look at themselves after surrendering a 4 goal lead to Lask. Poor Celtic Captain, Callum McGregor had to once again apologise to the Celtic fans for failure to qualify for the Champions League when really it should be Dermot Desmond, at the end of the day he is the one micro managing OUR club.

No matter where Celtic play the Celtic support will be there and tonight will be no different. Thankfully St. Johnstone have given us a decent allocation and will make some cash for their club.

For those not attending the game, Sky Sports are showing it!. Enjoy the game and let’s hope St. Mirren can turn over the rangers at Ibrox.
