Fulltime. Celtic vs. Hearts

What a game. Celtic win 5 nil. Midfield were amazing with Brown getting himself a goal and naka with some slick footwork to win a penalty that hesselink slotted home with ease. Naka got his name on the scoresheet too when he finished off a great move that was started by Brown hustling in the hearts half and stealing the ball. Fingers crossed for a similar performance on wednesday.

Halftime against hearts

Its halftime at the celtic vs. Hearts game and thanks to berra's face and some sublime skill from donati we're ahead two nil and very much on top of things. Hearts aren't troubling the hoops defence and mcmanus and caldwell are looking a cohesive unit. Standout so far has been massimo though with mcdonald also looking impressive up front.

1 game, 1 point, 0 excitement

Last sunday was the first game of the season and Celtic were at home to Kilmarnock. Despite it being my debut league game in my brand spanking NEW season ticketed seat things didn't bode well before I even got to Parkhead. Getting p1ssed on in a downpour on the way to the stadium pretty much set the tone for the afternoon.
I was hoping for an awe-inspiring goalfest to lift the mood but I was, along with the rest of the Celtic faithful, severely dissappointed. Things weren't as bad as the phone-in-show nutters have subsequenly phoned in to say but it did make for a drab 90 mins of football. Donati, Brown, McGeady and Naka all showed moments to keep supporters spirits up so I'm going to exercise my right to be optmistic and ignore the phone-in madness for now.
