That Tottenham vs Leicester game the other night was nuts. Leicester 2-1 up with a minute or so of injury time left and they lose 2-3  :o. What was the Leicester keep thinking and doing in the last Spurs goal?

Spurs now favourite for that 4th Champions League spot.

Ange is officially god to Celtic fans after this morning. On their forum they are even wishing that Ange was their dad :lol. The only bad news for Celtic is if this keeps up then the big English clubs will soon come knocking to poach Ange. Imagine Ange at Man U or Arsenal. 

ps. An indictment by the way on the so called current coaches of our national teams who are still back in the 80s/90s with their slow negative play and on those jealous idiots in Aussie soccer who drove Ange out of Australia  ::).

No wonder Celtic are flying now. Ange's philosophy (Celtic training video from 6 months ago) is the way the modern game is meant to be played.

Ange deserves all the plaudits he is receiving now and it's great for his coaching career to manage a club like Celtic. However, what a loss to our national team when he was driven out by clueless idiots within Aussie soccer after the Socceroos qualified for the last World Cup  :thumbsdown

Well what a choke by Man City in the Champions League. Two up with 6 mins to play and they cave lol.

Liverpool vs Real Madrid is going to be an amazing final.

Rogic received a 60k standing ovation at Celtic Park as he left the field for the last time.

Man City came from 0-2 down against Villa to score 3 goals in 5 minutes to win the EPL title.

Liverpool, Chelsea and Spurs took out the other Champions League spots.

Arsenal and Man Utd qualify for the Europa League group stage while West Ham ends up in the Europa Conference League qualifiers.

Burnley, Watford and Norwich have been relegated.

Nottingham Forest won the playoff final and promotion to the Premier League for the first time in 23 years.

The main talking point is VAR though. Clear penalty not given. Must have been the same guy in the ear of the AFL umps on Friday night :facepalm.

Man Utd in last place after Brentford flogged them 4-0  :o lol.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xzrypyu-nCQ

Not really a surprise when de Gea has multiple howlers in goal and ten Hag buys a centre back that is as short as Maurice Rioli jnr :huh3.

And they've got Liverpool next up lol.

Ange will get a statue outside Celtic Park if this continues. Rare to see a 4-0 flogging in an Old Firm game. They totally destroyed and demoralised Rangers last night.
