    This campaign only serves to weaken us on our league campaign. Getting kicked out of CL should be it. Go big or go home. We don't make that much out of this run and we aren't good enough to make an impact. Games are around the time we have the league cup. And a busy December fixture month. Happily crash out of this for the good

    Agree, I don't even want to be in it. We need to for coefficient points to stay seeded for the CL quallifying though as playing the likes of Rosenborg, Astana, Cluj and AEK is hard enough * playing Ajax, Salzburg and * like that.

    I'd usually be one for saying that's snobby but after tonight I honestly couldn't give a *..

    Going to places like Moldova or that playing pish in the Europa to get papped out by January at the very latest..

    Can't see us qualifying again for a good while..

    This team will be broken up after this season. The spine of it will be gone..

    Literally no even a bit tired man. So * off..

    Don't blame guys for saying * it right now but i actually think we NEED it!! I really think that's where we are after tonight. That tonight was huge and no amount of deflection tactics over the next few days will kid any * on otherwise...or at least they shouldn't.

    No Thanks

    We are not good enough to compete, No distractions, no papering over this defensive shambles. The board have to go out and buy some players who are fit, up to speed and can actually defend. The 10 million they already spent was clearly wasted,

    The moment we become unseeded in the later Champions League qualifying rounds is the moment we kiss goodbye to Champions League qualification for good.

    While I have no interest in this competition after that performance last night, it is now imperative that we keep our head above water.

    Last night will have major repercussions over the coming years, and we need to mitigate against that fallout as best we can.

    Still not decided if it will be AIK or Sheriff. I hope for AIK so I can go to the game. Is AIK better than Celtic? No, not at all. I watched AIK live a few months ago against my local team and we beat AIK 3-0.

    For me this tie should be over in the first leg. If we dont do they job in the first game they might get motivated and get the extra motivation they need (and be sparked by the fans) like Malmö in 2015. They will be extra motivated playing against Celtic as Celtic is considered a huge club in Sweden and are very well known.

    Not arsed in the slightest. The ten is all that matters now and with continually weakening the team Europe will hamper it.

    Looking at aik they have a very decent team , albeit they have some ageing players but they will still do a job , players like seb larsson , goitom , sigporrsson , ekstrand , enoch adu , chinedu obasi , these are players that have played at a high/decent level in there careers , sigprosson and goitom will have a field day if our defending os as bad as it was last night!

    Iam mixed by it , I get the prestige that comes with the CL but more than likely to get humped senseless and finish bottom , "if" we get a decent group and play defenders in defence we could qualify in the UEFA cup

    I was going to say I dont like the sounds of them against our defence. These are the players we historically struggle against in these games.

    Wouldnt be surprised if Sigthorsson turns out to be the next Berget or Rosenberg.

    Not interested in this, getting outplayed by teams with the stature of Salzburg because they have better scouting and transfer policy even tho they have less money like last season does not excite me at all.

    Totally agree , it has a team resembling malmo where it was some seasoned pros against us. They might not have the legs or that but they have the intelligence against us

    Not seen Eddy's reaction yet, but said in another post that him and Ntcham have come here to play UCL football and that's two seasons in a row we haven't given them that platform.

    Wouldn't surprise me if bids come in for one or two of them now, they'll be interested
