Celtic Champions League Draw No bad.

Celtic Champions League Draw No bad.

All honest Celtic fans will admit it, after the teams from Pots 1 2 had been drawn in Monaco earlier today, heartbeats were fairly racing at the prospect of being lumped in with Real Madrid (who many had earlier expre Griffin Carter Jersey sed a desire to meet), Juventus and the po sibility of Dynamo Kiev or old adversaries Shakhtar Donetskmaking upa fearsome Group of Death. Alarm bells were also ringing about the prospect of Groups A F where theheavyweight pairsof Chelsea and Roma or Lyon and Bayern lay in wait. AsCeltics fellowPot 3 teams were slowly distributed the options narrowed, and for many the most appealing destinationseemed to be Group D where Liverpool and PSV lurked, appealing that is based on last night Ralph Kinne Jersey s abject Liverpool performance.And then it was, Manchester United and Villareal. General consensus? Aye, thatll do, no bad.So thento the Pot 4 dangers. The top 4 rankedteams in Pot 4 were all to be avoided if po sible; Donetsk, Spartak Moscow-thrashing Dynamo Kiev, Fiorentina and Atletico Madrid are nobodys mugs. The adventurous were perhaps hoping for CL newboys Bate Borisov of Belarus but Luis Rodriguez Jersey out came Danish champions Aalborg. General consensus? Aye, thatll do, no bad.A sair yin oan the pocket mind ye.It saysmuch about the progre s of GlasgowCeltic under Gordon Strachan that whilst acro sthe cityRangers are busy serving their own self-imposed travel ban some Celtic fans will be disappointed that the glamour team in the group is only Manchester United, the tournaments current holders. Those fans will travel to Old Trafford withgenuine hope though, recalling that the last time the two teams met in theChampionsLeagueCeltic performed admirably, and would have wonthrough had it been a two-leg UefaCup tie. Villareal have already ended a European campaign for Celtic recently and having finished above Barcelona in the Primera Liga last season will present a real challenge for the Bhoys, but again, general consensus?Beatable, definitely David Njoku Jersey . Asfor Aalborg, many fans will already be predicting CelticsfirstCL away win innorthern Denmark come late November. Those same fans thoughshould Sherman Douglas Jersey remember the 3-0 mauling by FC Copenhagen in the same season wherethe Naka-inspired Celticovercame the current holders.Can Celtic qualify for the last 16 of footballs premier competition after todays draw then? The hooped faithful knew the answer to that even afore the first team had been drawn. Nae bother. The most pertinentquestion on the lips of supporters now is; will a certain Mr H Lar son be rejoining to be there when they do.
