celtic res 1 nil up momo sylla
first half Celtic walked allover the fuckers...only 3 good saves by that unknown goalkeeper kept Celtic at bay...
second half....Celtic were pish...Douglas developed an allergy to the ball and fucked up to allow rangers to go one up...
3 fucking HUGE crap defenders let a wee Spanish prick run between them to score a pish easy goal....
Thommo has had his day and couldnt pass water...Petrov would need help to cross the road...
Bellamy done alright....
Douglas fucked up!!
Think that sums up the game...

the celtic team, today welcomed a new face, ex-liverpool defender, stefan henchoz was drafted in to help out the defence for the trip to fife, but other new signing craig bellamy was left out due to martin o'neill not wanting to risk the welshman apparently because he didn't like the idea of him playing on the plastic pitch with his history of injuries, but he would have struggled to get into the attack if he knew how well chris sutton and john hartson would play today.
this was a cup game and the celtic players weren't risking their cup run against a premier league team like dunfermline, who have given celtic some well fought matches in the past.
in the first 5 minutes the pars were on top, but were hit on the break by a 7th minute john hartson goal provided by sutton.
2 minutes later, hartson was causing havock again by unluckily hitting the crossbar, for player of the month, chris sutton to easily rebound in with a header.
about 30 minutes into the game, dunfermline goalkeeper, derek stillie was on hand to save a well hit alan thompson free kick.
dunfermline then had another a little spell, forcing 7 corners, but not causing any distruption to the celtic team.
a few minutes before half time, a mix up in the dunfermline defence gifted john hartson for him to side foot his 21st goal of the season.
celtic had done all the hard work in the first half and knew that there wasn't as much work to do in the 2nd half and it showed when they kept possession for most of the second half.
believe it or not after forcing aroung 8 corners through the match , dunfermline hit their first shot 53 minutes into the game, but it was too far away to cause the celtic goalkeeper, rab douglas any trouble.
on the 70th minute mark, dunfermline's andus skerla's powerful header was well saved by douglas.
towards the end of the game, noel hunt's well headed shot beat rab douglas but hit off the bar to be cleared to safety.

there were ridiculously massive gaps in the away stand today, too many fans are either bored of seeing the same week in, week out (getting a goal and holding on), or the celtic fans would rather pay for setanta than be charged a ridiculous fee of around £20- £25 just to get into an average size spl team's ground.
it was a freezing, bitterly cold day today at ayrshire, and celtic knew a win against 'the killie boys' would send them top after rangers were on top on goal difference, and had played a game more than celtic.
the celtic fans wanted to win the game (obviously), but were just as worried about the controversy surrounding defender, dianbobo balde's future at the scottish champions, who put in a typical champion performance today.
celtic were lined up in a 442 formation today, with the normal players, yet again including ulrik laursen, who looks to be improving game by game after putting in terrific performances since the rangers game at the start of the month.
celtic started brightly, with central midfielder, stilian petrov narrowly missing as early as the 3rd minute, and bobo balde hitting the bar 5 minutes into the game.
chris sutton was playing at his best, and was committed to getting a goal early on. the englishman was unlucky, narrowly failing to head in a thompson corner, and hitting a shot from another thompson cross, which barely troubled the killie keeper, alan combe on the 20 minute mark.
kilmarnock's supporters thought their luck was in when they scored a goal by steven naismith, only to be ruled out by the linesman.
petrov was unlucky to score moments later, when his well struck shot went inches wide of the target.
kilmarnock fans must have thought they were going to take something from the hoops today, as sutton headed wide of the goal yet again.
However Sutton's big chance came when a floated ball from thompson's free-kick struck killie midfielder, danny invincible's hand for the referee to blow for a penalty to celtic. upstepped...

MATCH REPORT by A man at the bottom of a bottle; hiccup 
Rab Douglas- Still flapping around like a turkey in the run up to xmas
Jackie- Good display from baby face flintstone as usual.
Bobo- Goodbye Bobo. More a liability now than he ever was since the African Nations Cup. What the fuck Boro are signing him for I dont know.
Varga- Stan the Man with another 'good enough' performance. Settled display.
Laursen- Getting more confident with every game under his belt. Has improved his step ups from defence.
Neil Lennon- Another really good performance from Lennon. Reads the game very well. Booking was a farce.
McGeady- Off the boil. Played mince. Gave the ball away. Pulled out of tackles.
Thomo- Has peaked. Well past his best now. Another non performance from someone who should be delivering much more.
Petrov- Average game. The highlights of his game were his highlights. Must have got them done at the City barbers on West Nile St.
Sutty- Best Player for us today. Did everything right. Great penalty which was gifted to us by Kili.
Hartson.- Utter bollocks. Contributed heehaw again. At this pace he couldnae score in West Campbell St with a ton in his back bin.
Camara(sub)- Was 200% more effective than Hartson.
Team effort- If we have to rely on Kili to gift us a penalty in a relatively non threatening position, then we need to beware. Doesnt help when our main source of goals is firing blanks.
