Movies

I watched Pan's Labyrinth last week (on DVD) and also caught The US versus John Lennon on TV.



I enjoyed both movies. Looking forward to watching Sunshine this weekend.

Milan again

This performance may give some hope for the future. Progression beyond this stage looks extremely difficult. I suppose some people think that Milan are way past their best but we'll see in the next round.

I was watching Celtic TV last night and they were interviewing some people coming back from the game. One of these was Steven Doyle. It took me a bit before I recognised him. He gave his view of the game O'Dea was the best player, McManus also brilliant and Lennon a real captain's game. Came over as reasonably articulate. He let himself down somewhat when asked what he thought of Milan itself.

"Shithole" he replied.

Photos from Florida


Here are some photos of Florida. Margaret and I went there earlier this month for a couple of weeks. We had a great time. We were there 15 years ago but this time we had no kids.

AC Milan

Looks like another nervous night tomorrow. Although I'm not unhappy with the January signings I would have preferred it if we had an addition for this game. I wasn't concerned about Hartley going to Rangers but he does seem to be playing well now, when he looked like he was having a poor season. Pressley was a good piece of business.

I'm expecting another game where Celtic look second best but as the game approaches I can't lose this feeling that we are going to win. I stopped doing the lottery as each Saturday I always expected to win. I knew it was a stupid feeling but the only way to stop it was not to buy a ticket.

Celtic will always have a chance with Nakamura and JVOH. Nakamura is world class at free kicks and his all round play is brilliant. JVOH also looks different class and I think he was a steal for the money we paid. The problem again will be defending. But you can't rule out 2-0.
