A shame Rosenborg are in such poor form at the moment. They'd knock out Celtic otherwise.
 
Celtic refused to let any Norwegian channels broadcast tonight's game because apparently they were worried about illegal internet distribution (yeah right). Since it's only available as PPV through CelticTV, guess what I'm doing.

Why would I do that when I can listen to some dour Scot talk about getting the ball out wide, having men in the box and running the channels?

Apparently Celtic is the greatest club side that has ever existed.
 
Hoping Rosenborg can knock out Celtic today. Looking good so far. After 0-0 at Celtic Park, it should be possible. Take away 1st qualifying round, Celtic have only won away 3 times in 13 years in Europe.
