How was the 10 stopped??

Remember some of it well due to the Four Crown.It started to unravel at the old firm game at Celtic park new years game and we used to sing its magic gonna be ten in a row then when they beat us that day they started singing never be ten in a row.I rember our bus heading home when we were attacked by them throwing bottles and smashing the window.Nothing has changed.
 
Also the changes in the game these days like the predator boots and how light the ball is have had a huge impact. Not too many players back in the day could hit the ball so hard and accurately like Tommy Gemmells rockets , if he were playing with todays boots and ball it would either burst (which happens quite often) or it would land in another country. The way the ball moves through the air is a beautiful thing to see when it's done right, even the balls nakamura scored with v man utd (sublime) , those balls were different from what's being used now. Theyre becoming more and more like what we used to call a blow away ball as kids 50p R.S. McColls 😷
Spot on Winter, if we could go back to the Jimmy McGrory days, the ball was heavy and got worse when wet. How good is his scoring record when playing with that ball. Beckham would break his toes than bend it
 
Regarding stopping 10iar we started really bad losing first 2 games
Henry's first game against Hibs he passed the ball to chic Charney boom
Hibs win Charney said best pass ever received open up celtic defence,we then started to improve as team began playing together because having so many new players in at same time
In Oct we won the league Cup beating Dundee Utd 3.0 and I think we started to think maybe wee Brattback came in and was beginning to look comfortable
We started to put run together beating Huns 2.0 at CP and yes here we go
FEW games left went to Dunfermline
to win league drew 1.1pit pressure back on Had to beat St Johnstone at celtic Park really nervous time up popped
Henrik picked ball wide on the left next to jungle cut inside along 18yd line about 4yds along tat line bent shot into faraway corner everybody started to believe sec half Henrik played in Jackie Mc wide right he took off about 10yds from byeline played great ball along the ground as St Johnstone defenders turned wee Harod met the cross 12yds from goal slotted in corner 2 up no stopping us now was really great feeling stop the scum
Honestly think got as much Happiness
From that season as winning the big cup or nine in a row as nobody really thought it would happen thats the joy of being a Celtic supporter they always
Keep coming back when least expected
Think MD would agree HH been following Tic 65yrs hopefully another 67
Some nervous times against St Johnstone as they missed good chances but we deserved to win and stopped the 10.HH
