Exactly what I thought last night. You can't really disallow the sort of goal fans pay good money to see. But anywhere else on the park, and (as you say) quite possibly if he'd missed, it's a free kick.

Really don't think you can blame Randolph for that one. Apart from the fact it would have been almost impossible to anticipate as overhead kicks can go anywhere, it bounced right in front of him in the muddy six yard box, much as Sutton's header did at the other end. I thought he was pretty unlucky not to keep it out, tbh.

If only. He did at least two theatrical rolls more than necessary before realising he wasn't getting it. You can almost see the "oh crap" look on his face when he does decide he's going to have to get back up after all, but too late to stop the cross.

Certainly looked like a foul (although I've only seen it on a dodgy internet stream so far), but have to say Gunning did seem to spend a bit too much time doing an extra couple of rolls expecting the whistle to go, when he should have been back up on his feet a bit quicker and maybe even still had a chance to put a bit of pressure back on the guy crossing the ball. Great cup tie though, haven't enjoyed watching a Motherwell game on the telly so much in a long time (no doubt due in part to the fact that we're usually playing either Accies or one of the evil twins when we're on the telly). Particularly good to see that we weren't playing for a draw even when the added time board went up -- we must have spent most of that last four minutes in the United half.

Goodwillie does a Rooney, 1-1. Randolph almost kept it out, but not quite.

Good shot from him there as well, just curled a foot past.

Lasley thought he was at Twickers there.

Craigan struggling after a challenge...

Goal took a bad bounce off the dodgy surface... just saying

GOAL Sutton!!! 45 seconds!

If I had 50p for every time somebody on this board said we were due to give somebody a doing, followed by us not giving anyone a doing after all...

That's the Shout Box up there, not the chat room... you can turn off the shout box altogether in your settings, if you want.

It's claret and amber for me, but it just looks exactly the same as the desktop version, which isn't very useful...

Good stuff, liking the new email notifications -- more helfpful than the old ones.

Surprised he hasn't had much of a mention up to now... I'd certainly take him ahead of Sieb, at least on his 90/91 form. Had a great couple of seasons for us.

Yes and no... there's certainly a big Celtic following here, as you'll see in the pubs and Dublin Airport any weekend, but the ManU/Liverpool/Leeds/Arsenal following is bigger. Not least because there's even more Premiership TV coverage here than there is in the UK, given that most people have access to both MOTD and RTE's Premiership highlights programmes, which are pretty much on a par with the BBC's, plus Sky Sports for the folk who want to pay for that. All of which would be marginally less depressing if RTE didn't also show zero coverage of their own domestic league -- you still need Setanta if you want to watch that.

Cheers, sounds good.

Will the upgrade include a mobile skin? Find it a bit of a pain to read the forum on my phone these days :/

Forrest about to come on for Celtic, replacing Ki. He could cause a few problems...

Another poor shot from Humphrey, lucky to get a corner this time.

Forbes booked, persistent fouling. Three 'Well players on cards now, need to be careful.

Great break comes to nothing... could be 4-0 up if Humphrey had crossed to an umarked Sutton on both occasions instead of shooting...

Commons hits the post... did Randolph get a touch? EDIT: Didn't even hit the post in fact, just a good save.

Terrible free kick fortunately, but Samaras and Juarez now on for Stokes and Wilson.

FK right on the edge of the box for Celtic, and Samaras getting ready to come on -- he usually scores against us...
