UEFA Cup Final

stevoslice

Will the bhoys do it,
Still uncertain wether Big Bad John Hartson is fit to play,
Petrov broke is hand in wednesdays match, but should be allowed play with a protective cast.
Weather will be very hot, Porto will be used to this,
Celtic have had a gruelling run in to the championship while Porto had the Portuguese Championship sown up b4 the Semi-Finals.

Still though, i reckon with the estimated 70,000 Celtic fans travelling, (40,000 without tickets) I reckon that the bhoys can repeat the achievments of the 1967 Lisbon Lions and bring home the glory.

Caesar_Bojangle

Celtic will probably lose, nonetheless i voted for all of the above because i could.



I'm not a fan of scottish football so i couldnt care less tbh

stevoslice

**** Off So

tHE vAGGABOND

Im one of the lucky Celtic fans going with a ticket, I cant wait

Logic says Porto will win, but I really think we will rise to the game, like we have done in Europe all season

Jake303

As has already been suggested logic would seem to suggest that Porto should be to strong for the Celts but after watching them on wednesday night I really think the unity and drive that O Neill has brought to the team can win out over the skill of Porto!

Can I ask what age you are?

Thanks

BKtje

nothing wrong with asking but i dont see the point really?

Think Celtic will win it, oo erm around 2-1.

(and i dont give a toss about scottish football either, does that make my opinion obselete? )

Steve_o

I think the Celtic will win 2-1 with the 2 goals comin from Henrik Larsson!!!

Makaveli

I think Porto will scrape it.
2-1

ciano

Celtic will do it ... but its gonna be tough!

Caesar_Bojangle

Jake303 and thebhoy just because i voiced an opinion that did not precisely reflect that of yours does not mean i'm immature, it means you're wrong. <---sarcasm


I reckon they'll lose due to what i've seen of them and Porto. As i said i'm not an ardent fan of scottish football, mainly because of the dogmatism involved in it.

Jake303

Never said anything about you not being entitled to an opinion, but the I filled in them all because I could.............pretty sad!

Christ! I thought this was a thread about the Eufa cup final!
:rolleyes:
My point is, that I was, out of curiosity, wondering what age Caesar_Bojangle was as the post seemed to be the work of a very immature person, in my opinion.

Never said anything about his or your opinion on the matter and frankly I couldnt care less.

Think Iv explained myself, now as clearly as I can so Im gonna leave this thread to its own devices.

Space Coyote

Celtic will probly win 3-2. It would be good for Glaswegian football if they did and the Gers win the league, keep both sets of supporters relatively happy.
Personally, I couldn't give a monkeys if they win or not.
But that's just my opinion.

BKtje

sorry Jake that reply wasnt meant soley to you but more to the thread starter who seemed to thnk that just cos someone didnt like scottish football that they should **** off.

Didnt like that reply at all at all and then you asking your mans age , i just felt that you didnt really care for opinions if they didnt suit you. Im sorry as i seem to be mistaken in your case.

Waylander

I'd like to see Celtic win, but anything I have seen of Porto this season has been pretty impressive. I can see them beating Celtic by a couple of goals.

cournioni

2-1, Celtic.

WhiteWashMan

porto 3-0 because i fúcking hate celtic and all the celtic supporters.

c'mon the rangers!

ohh and scottish football sucks the sweat from donkeys balls, and so do all celtic armchair supports.
irish my arse!

c'mon porto!

cournioni

C'mon Motherwell :rolleyes:

p.pete

Have no idea who is gonna win - but I reckon it could be somethin similar to Ireland v Italy(USA 94) as far as crowd support is concerned. I was nearly going but the money is ridiculous, a friend who is still going has paid 850euro for just his match ticket.

The bookies are backing Porto, but Celtic will hopefully edge it by a goal.

mike65

I'd like Porto to win, as I cant stand all the Celtic/Irish stuff, you'd nearly think the team had some players who cared about that sort of thing!

I think it'll be tighter than some reckon though so I've voted for extra-time.

Mike.

Space Coyote

I'm changing my mind. I saw Porto on Eurogoals today and they looked bloody good. Some lad scored a great bicycle kick inside the box. I'll go 5-2 Porto. :ninja:

TwoShedsJackson

2-0 Porto.

carbsy

1-1 AET with Celtic sneakin' it on penos!

No worries mate.

Sposs

I think Porto will win easily they have a good team with the likes of Derlei banging in goals for fun and Costinha in midfield i can't see Celtic keeping a clean sheet.

jonno

The only way I can see Celtic winning is if the 3 centre midfielders can play a holding role and soak up most of the pressure and then hope that Larsson and his partner up front work some magic.

plastic membrane

Celtic to win 1-0 in one of the worst finals ever.

Horse

COME ON CELTIC!!!!

Celtic win 3-1,





The Fields of Athenry

By lonely prison wall, I heard a young girl calling
Michael they are taking you away
For you stole Trevaillians corn
So your young might see the morn
It's so lonely 'round the Fields of Athenry

Chorus:
Lo lie the Fields of Athenry
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
Our love was on the wing
We had dreams and songs to sing
It's so lonely 'round the Fields of Athenry

By lonely prison wall I heard a young man calling
Nothing matters Mary when you're free
Against the famine and the crown
I rebelled, they cut me down
Now you must raise our child with dignity.

Chorus

By lonely harbour wall, she watched the last hour falling
As the prison-ship sailed out against the sky
But she'll live and hope and pray
For her love in Botany Bay
It's so lonely 'round the Fields of Athenry

Chorus

Agree with WWM Celtic are a one man team,take away Larson and you have a team of journeymen pros.

GoneShootin

if people support celtic as well as they did our own national leaugue teams we'd be far better off

also, if celtic were called a different name, like say "inbreds utd" - i wonder would the irish fans be as daft for em as they are now

good, coz that means they arent here, and i hate celts fans as much as i hate man utd fans. actually, i think i hate them more than utd fans. at least utd fans follow a decent football team for the football, and not because of some makey uppy irish connection reason.

and you call me sad?

Nope, I call you sad because you want a players career to end through serious injury.

anarchy

there wasn't so much a fuss when liverpool won the uefa cup a couple of years ago ; so why the big deal over celtic? because there's too many pseudo-celtic fans eager to jump on the bandwagon, and of course a load of gers muppets eager to believe they'll still win the SPL - the whole thing is farcical anwyay because celtic and rangers are the Uruguay and Paraguay of club football - desperately crap and clinging onto old distant memories of success.

Well I got my prediction right!

George Hamilton is a wanker though, he seems to have taken the loss very personally..and the Celtic fans sound to me like they're booing the winners. I dont recall that from previous finals...

Mike.

DerekD Goldfish

absolutly delighted with porto winning
I cant stand Celtic well their fans well their "Irish" fans in particular.
I cant stand rovers but at least their supporting an Irish team that actually is irish.
Do you see english people delighted because thier "english" team Ac Milan are in the champions league final.
No because just because they were started by an Englishman doesnt mean they are english.
When english football fans show more sence than you youre in trouble.

I think the Celtic fans took great offense to Porto booing Martin O' Neill when he went up to the stand. First punch thrown and all that. I wouldn't be surprised if theres a few punch ups tonight.
