Steve Smith

Great pod lads:
- Limbs
- Kenny Rogers
- Largesse in tipping

Oh - and a bit about the football too.

Bit weird though - listened to Heart & Hand afterwards. Their view re officials and financial disadvantage (no laughing at the back) and reference to self-flagellation is worth a laugh too.

Might just have been that my 1 simulation wasn’t a good set of results for us! Hope 10 is enough. But let’s get the win and reduce the jeopardy.

Hmmm - not sure. I ran (just the one) simulation of the remaining games and some teams on 10 points qualified, some didn't. I think it will come down to MD8 and where teams are at- e.g. PSV v. Liverpool - I can imagine PSV getting something from that given than Liverpool should be through already.

Interesting run in for the remaining CL games. We need the win v. YB. 12 points should be good for playoff. 10 points may not be enough.

Great first ep lads. Looking forward to next week (hopefully not next February) episode.

Very good.

I will admit it. I listened the whole way. I was waiting for the “hot mic” moment of Remy admitting he had been harsh in his view re Craig Gordon.

And here it is! Well worth a listen prior to the midweek CL game v Brugge.

Great analysis Willie - thanks for sharing. Feels like a(nother) pivotal game.

What we’ve all been waiting for. If you’ve missed Remy’s descriptions of his pre-match refreshments (and his Celtic level-headedness) or Paul T’s gig reviews (and tactical insights) - then good news! @rodneyfarmer.bsky.social @pault1888.bsky.social - oh and @barcajim3.bsky.social too

Made one for soccer analytics dorks go.bsky.app/Hu8kEtH

@andrewcaskie.bsky.social just posted this and a number of other analyses over on X. Makes very interesting reading.

Love that interaction! Didn't realise that Liv is now at Wellington Phoenix. @will-i-am-i-am.bsky.social

Two years ago today. Celtic in Sydney!

Slightly frustrating thing is that German (and some other nationalities) publish their income including net transfer income - which of course makes cross border comparisons quite tricky.

The German federation publishes a league-wide report. Perhaps more of a league wide analysis? Having said that, Borussia Dortmund, Schalke, Mainz, Bayern Munich, Werder Bremen and Hamburg all published detailed reports. I know you have done deep dives on Dortmund and BM.

Thanks @will-i-am-i-am.bsky.social

Nice easy way of following the Celtic Down Under contributors.

Funny thing is my mate didn’t really want to go, but his older brother convinced us “come on - who knows what could happen”. Weird atmosphere throughout (fake news of goals) and then delirium when Albert Kidd did his thing! Makes up for being at the Rapid Vienna games (home and OT replay).

1. 3-0 night game v the Huns. Really cemented the Ange turnaround

2. Love Street. What a game. I was 17, remember bumping into my uncle on the pitch!

3. Rogic v the Rangers. Injuring Bates in the process.

4. Signed Invincibles shirt from my 2nd cussy. Or my Dad’s Seville ticket.

What do you make of the lineup? Feels light up front?

Thanks Dave. There’s an account that looks legit - now worried I’m following some fake account!

Crunch game tonight. Hoping for a good result - and a good performance. Enjoy Shano!

A tale of two platforms:

BlueSky user numbers have hit a new record high in recent days, while the number of people deleting their accounts on X/Twitter has rocketed 🚀

Big game for the Socceroos tonight. Really shaky start to the campaign, but a win tonight could be massive.

Great starter pack link for new Bhoys to BlueSky.

One of the (many) things that makes our club unique. Please donate what you can - there’s a lot of folks struggling out there.

Love this.
