BR said something on Wednesday night about KT being injured, didn't he? Maybe a hangover from his shoulder knock?

There's been a few threads where the best stories have been posted again. No matter how many times I read some of them, they still make me laugh so much. Sideboards, Raffo, Lubo, Chinesers, the boiler are just a few that make me laugh just thinking about them There's actually been loads more.
The 'Met Glenn Loovens today' thread was another KDS high water mark. Yer man who met Glen followed me on Twitter the other day and I instantly thought of that story. I think he left KDS after that?

Funny how somebody taking a bit of time just to be nice can really make your day. I was on a plane to New York with my wife some years ago and Andy Goram was in the seat beside me. We got to talking about football and I told him I was a Celtic fan, but it didn’t matter to him, he couldn’t have been nicer. He insisted on paying for our drinks, showed us wallet pictures of his family and said he was en route to Honduras to help build an orphanage for blind kids. I happened to mention to him that we were going to New York for the weekend to celebrate my wife’s birthday. That night a huge bunch of flowers arrived at our hotel for her. On the card it said ‘Many happy returns to a very, very special lady. Best wishes to you both for your weekend in the Big Apple and for the rest of your lives. Love will always conquer division. Yours in sport, Andy.’ Beside the message he had drawn a picture of a union jack and a tricolour intertwined with a Smiley and a heart on either side. I sent him a note of thanks c/o Rangers and every year since a bunch of flowers and a card have arrived at our house on my wife’s birthday – each time with the same special drawing on it. I would post a picture of it on here except I made it all up and Andy Goram is a complete bell-end. Liam Brady did give me a pen once, though.

Brendan Rodgers speaking to the media in Limerick after the @IntChampionsCup clash with @Inter: 'It was a really good exercise for us.'
BR: 'The competitive games have come upon us very quickly so we had to reduce some of the time with guys who played tonight.'
BR on latest injury news: 'Nir trained this morning & he looked fine so he comes into the reckoning & Eric is back training tomorrow.'
BR on approach for #UCL first-leg on Wed. 'We are a team that wants to win and play offensively and aggressively in defence.'
BR: 'Ideally, we take a lead and as big one as we possibly can to 2nd leg and every game we are getting better offensively.'
BR: 'I thought the Motherwell game was a good example in how they might setup and if we can do something similar that would be great.'
BR: 'We'll be ready. Their mentality and football is getting better every day.
BR: 'As much as it will be difficult game for us, will be a difficult game for them.'
BR: 'What did we get from today? We got young players getting a great experience and we will take something away from it.'

That is exactly the type of attitude I want to hear from a Celtic manager

We now have a proper manager. He is on a completely different level from Ronny.

Isn't it just brilliant walking to the ground and actually wondering what he'll do?
None of this constant rigid 4-2-3-1* sideways passing muck. Loved watching the team switch and flow in that 3-5-2 system against Imps.
*I don't hate said formation. It just got very tedious seeing the same system every single game under Ronny.

OK, so now I'm shampooting myself. I should love him being positive & gubbins Motherwell by 5 was great, but I'm always nervous going into these games - especially after the past few years.
Please get it right Brendan, pretty please.

BRENDAN Rodgers felt there were a number of positives to take from last night’s 2-0 friendly defeat to Inter Milan in the International Champions Cup. Goals in either half from Italian internationalists Eder and Antonio Candreva gave the Nerazzurri the victory at Thomond Park in Limerick. But Celtic contributed much to the contest and came close to finding the net several times, including a speculative volley from Nadir CIftci that struck the bar. The manager had selected a side which contained several first-team players in search of game-time, along with one or two younger players, and he was pleased by how they performed against top-class opponents. The Hoops boss said: “I was really pleased with the way we played against a top side with real good quality. I needed to be fair to these guys here because a lot of them needed the 90 minutes. “The competitive games have come upon us very quickly in pre-season, so we have had to reduce some of the time with some of the guys that played last night because we have been playing in competition. “It’s important I got see them against a really good team and I felt tonight was a really good exercise for us and you saw how accomplished they were in a lot of the game. “We got young players getting a great experience against really good players and we will take something away from it.” Celtic also confirmed the capture of goalkeeper Dorus de Vries from Nottingham Forest this weekend, the Dutchman signing a two-year deal. The 35-year-old worked under Brendan Rodgers at Swansea and the Irishman was delighted to add him to the squad. He said: “For me, for how we play, I need to have a goalkeeper that can distribute the ball and pass it and Dorus is as good as I’ve seen in that in all my travels. “He’s a real fit guy, he’s 35, but look at guys like Van der Saar who played right through 'till 40 and has some of his best years were in that final part of their career. “Dorus I know well enough to know he looks after his body and he will come in and get how I work. He’s been nursing a slight knock he took last week so we’re just assessing that. "He’s with the medical team and I expect him to join the goalkeepers today or Monday and we will see his availability from then.” Now that Celtic’s final friendly of pre-season has been completed, the manager, the backroom staff and the players will turn their full focus towards Wednesday’s UEFA Champions League play-off first-leg against Hapoel Be’er Sheva. And the Hoops boss believes his team are improving in every match as they gear up for the crucial contest in Paradise, where a huge crowd is expected to cheer on the Bhoys. He said: “You want to win and our home game is going to be really important for us, whether it was the first or the second leg. We area a team that wants to win and a team that plays offensively and aggressively in defence. "Ideally, the situation would be that they take a lead and as big a lead as they possibly can to the second leg. As you can see, as each game goes by, offensively and defensively, we are getting better and better. We will hopefully have 60,000 there creating and incredible atmosphere and we will pour everything into the game into getting a positive result to take into the following week’s game. It will be a tough game. "I watched them a number of times now and they are very robust and hard to break down and we will need to be patient in the game. If we can get a victory to take into the second leg then of course we will be happy. “We will be ready. This is a team we have been working on our mentality and our football is getting better every day. As much as it will be a difficult game for us, I’m sure it will be a really difficult game for them so we will look forward to it.” http://www.celticfc.net/news/11081?
