Did people really say Celtic losing to Bayern Munich Away was embarrassing?

I recall some on sportsound saying the manner in which they played was embarrassing because they can have played better. Losing over their wasn't the embarrassing part.

If we can sort out CB, we could do okay in the Europa League. 

I though Sinclair could have done more and if he is serious about going to the World cup he needs to start having an impact against the better sides. Alan Thompson was able to and I don't think he was as good at Sinclair.

Celtic are still in Europe .........  Not the Champions League, but still in Europe. 

However when do Facts ever get in the way of Murdos Moronic Mouthings

Agreed. I thought Scotty was poor last night. Apparently we're in for a Croatian centre back and the fee would break our transfer record. Encouraging if true 👍

Sinclair has absolutely zero chance of going to the world cup regardless of how well he might be playing for Celtic. He won't get picked while he's playing in Scotland.

3-0 defeat for Chelsea last night at Roma.

Embarrasing surely? You know, like folk said our defeat away to Bayern was.....

A better performance last night but ultimately nothing gained from it bar possibly confidence. The PSG game will be a huge marker on if we are indeed progressing. 

I live in London. After the 3-0 game against Bayern all the papers & a lot of online stuff referred to the game as 'a hammering'. Never thought of 3-0 as a hammering, a comfortable victory maybe but a hammering would be more like 5-0. There's definitely a tendancy to be condescending/dismissive about anything to do with Scottish football.

Sinclair has been poor in a fair number of european games since joining, his back tracking and defensive covering, which you almost always require against the best has been non existent at times, he could do with a few games on the bench I reckon.

Perhaps it was because it was a 3-0, that could easily have been a 6 or 7 if Bayern hadn't put the tools away at half time. 

The press down south are actually giving Chelsea a deserved hard time about this result. Most are calling it embarrassing, from what I've heard so your point doesn't really hold up.

Embarrassing? The Huns going out of business and their fans sitting back and doing nothing to save them is embarrassing not a 3-0 away defeat to a giant of world football.

Some folk are overly sensitive. 

I was trying to explain why some folk said it was embarrassing. 

If you actually read what I typed I didn't say it was embarrassing. 

Now if you want to put your big boy pants on and stop greetin?

Frustrating a fuk to play so well then lose a goal like the first but still a few positives to take from the game.

Saturday in Perth will also be a good test for us.

See if we almost get a draw against you? Can I feel proud of my team? Because that’s what I was reading last night from Tim pals on my Facebook. Not you may I add.

Ok, here is a Quesiton.....

 

Its a long shot i know but bear with me....

Celtic will prob go onto the Europa Cup, if they win this then they will be in Champs League next year, 

As they will also be Scottish Champs, will second place in Scotland get in Champs League Qualifiers? or Runners up in Europa Cup...?

Prob runners up....  but anyone know... could make race for second interesting

Don't think so. Sure they just bump up everyone who has qualified for Champs League via co-efficients as they now have a team not taking up the spot for being winners of the Europa League..

Because Man Utd didn’t qualify through their league position.

Only way you’d get 2 in us if Celtic finished 2nd (or worse) which is even less unlikely than them winning the europa league.
