The Mighty Bhoys Do It Again At Celtic Park!

Celtic 1-0 Benfica
A. McGeady (45)

The tackle from Gilles Binya on Scott Brown was appaling and it's a miracle he hasn't broken his leg, we are in 3rd Position level on points but behind Shakhtar Donetsk on the Head To Head Ruling.

It was worse than Keane on Haaland. It was worse than Souness's classic in the late 80s. In fact it was probably the most disgusting tackle I have ever seen. Things like that deserve a life ban I tell you.

Was a disgusting tackle. It's not often you'll find me sticking up for Scott Brown, but he did very well not to react to that.

Could have easily caused a horrific injury and deserves a lengthy ban.

It was a miracle he didnt break his leg. A truly awful tackle, which should have him banned for rest of European games plus UEFA cup if they finish third

Can I recommend a book to all you Scottish football fans (especially those of us who realise there is more to Scotland than the Old Firm).

Heartfelt by Aidan Smith. Smith is a Hibee who crosses Edinburgh to Gorgie and follows the Jambo’s home and away for a season.

Really interesting read and I’d recommend it.

‘Supping Bovril from the Devil’s cup’.

Anyone else read it?

Anyone else read it? Got it last Christmas, and I'd finished it by early Boxing Day - couldn't put it down as I found it that interesting, particularly his tales of the Euro aways. Available to buy online from www.hibsshop.co.uk I believe

About half of the book is about the Hibs team of the 1950s.

Cheers Dave, I'll keep an eye out - not enough books out about the Famous Five IMHO.

The only place I could find it was in the big book shop on Deansgate. Waterstones I think it is.

Given the amount of goals scored by that Hibs team, possibly the greatest forward line in the history of the Scottish game.

Quick bump.

Poor performance from Celtic yesterday on a day which should have seen a convincing win.

It resulted in a 1-1 draw.

Celtic's lead is down to two points now and Rangers may be able to capitalise on this due to their game in hand.

Celtic 15 33
Rangers 14 31
Motherwell 16 29
Hibernian 16 26
Dundee United 16 26

Hopefully there'll be a bigger push outside Celtic and Rangers.

Hibs lost 2-0 at Inverness yesterday however,
Motherwell recorded a 2-1 win against Hearts,
Dundee United were unconvincing and lost 3-0 against Falkirk.
