A few observations from today. 1. Playing Forrest was strange. 2. Juranovic was appalling. Head is gone. 3. Johnston played well. 4. Their penalty was soft. 5. Goldson handball was penalty not even VAR. 6. Jota the man for equaliser. 7. If Taylor stays on Celtic would have won.

Often gets forgotten that John Collins was courted by Souness, went to Ibrox for talks, and was offered 3 times the salary Celtic had offered him, to sign for Rangers. He had already given his word to Billy McNeill and he kept it. That's what you call a real Celtic man.

I wish Fergus McCann was younger and still at the helm at Celtic. Fergus always fought Celtic's corner no matter how unpopular it made him in media. The current chancers on the board cannot hold a candle to him. He would run amok with some things in Scots football last few years.

Henrik and Jordan lead the Celts out against Seville in 2004 in Henrik's last game for Celtic. A very emotional evening for many.
