Celtic are used to putting in the miles but this month they play an incredible six home games, surely a record (?), with away trips only to Edinburgh to face Hibs and Hearts, and Dundee. If you are keeping an eye on historical records, eight of our 12 games until February are at home, with a trip across town to Firhill the only other away game on the schedule during the period. Deal with Hibs on Sunday, and we will take on an even more formidable look.
8 games in 29 days is as packed a schedule as anyone in Europe will have this month, but the lack of travel will help players prepare for each subsequent game.
The unbeaten domestic run is set-aside tomorrow as we conclude the Champions League group stage against a resurgent Anderlecht. We will talk more about this game tomorrow, but get through this one, and the adrenaline will flow sufficiently to see us through to the winter break.

I think the final paragraph is intended to reflect the views of those mentioned in the penultimate paragraph. Here, have another read and tell me what you think :
`Thirdly and critically, the traditional order in Scottish football has gone wrong somehow, and needs to be restored. This is the big reveal. Many may not even consciously realise that they think this, but the steamroller saga suggests otherwise.
McInnes has simply looked the best of the obtainable managers to restore Rangers’ sagging fortunes; to challenge Celtic sooner rather than later; to bring back that familiar, historic top-two battle in Scottish football. And in the process, to take the main man away from these upstarts, who have muscled in between them.`

Thanks for that lovely post (7:04pm last night) about your cousin, Stephen.
I think I knew him a long time back: he always struck me as a decent guy, if somewhat hard to read. (A lot of jags fans are like that, though!)
Very sorry to hear of his passing …

Not any more, my bhoy who isn’t registered for the away ticket scheme has had a ticket for every away game this season via his bus. Serious consideration will be given next season as to the renewal of my season ticket as it no longer affords the benefits it promises. The sole reason I subscribed for a more expensive ticket was the increased likiehood of a ticket for away games but this no longer seems to be the case. They can keep their rock hard pies and fancy cream cakes for the day trippers now. Maybe I should go down the road of the man from the east bearing gifts to increase my chances of an away ticket.
Dear Member,
Hibs v Celtic
Sunday 10th December 2017
Due to the allocation we received for the above match it was deemed necessary to conduct a ballot/reduced allocation, unfortunately the amount of applications we received from corporate and premium members outweighed the amount of tickets we had to allocate.
I regret to inform you that your application to apply for tickets for the above game was unsuccessful.
Please accept our apologies for the disappointment this may cause.
