Backlash Sunday

833

It is difficult to overstate the importance of Sunday’s cup final to Motherwell. They have won as many major trophies in the last 65 years as Celtic have won European Cups in the same period. What an opportunity they have.

Sunday might be just another final to you and me, or more importantly, to the Celtic players, but it is a date with destiny for all at Motherwell.

Right now, Celtic players will still be de-escalating emotions from Wednesday night. It is difficult to switch from one emotional peak straight into an equally intense state, but if we do not find our sharpness or thought and body, the Invincible trail will end this weekend.

I don’t think that will happen; there should be a backlash from Celtic. The open wounds from Wednesday will be used as fuel. The players have been slapped about by the hurt of defeat and will want to avoid a repeat on a national cup final. If Motherwell want to win, score a goal, or if they even want to pass the ball, they will have to operate at a level they have only attained for seconds this season.

The stakes are as high for both teams. Let’s hope the matter is decided without controversy.

Have a great and memorable day at Hampden.

    They certainly are shite, but they are also SHOITE … HAHAHAHAHAHAHA….. Hope you are well, sir

  3. They have 2 against the Sheep & an away to Hibs out of next 4 games.

     

    Pity we have Motherwell twice, real chance now they might not make top 6.

     

     

    Obviously King was praying Murty would win the last couple, normally home to Accies & away to bottom Club are gimmes.

     

    Murty was the cheap option they can’t appoint him now. Paddle Creek & Shit come to mind.

    I really enjoyed my day out But that result will maybe let me sleep for a few hours longer than usual, thanks for your company, and that of Richie, and Nothankroad really enjoyed today, and that result just made it a great day. going to my bed, and I feel that I will sleep for at least Eight hours

  5. Was still on a severe downer from Wednesday,then,along come this shower to lift the spirits.

     

    The big boy O”Hara looked mighty pleased as he paraded himself in front of the ugly,rabid,scum behind the goal.

    I’m not aware of organized bus tours, I assume originating in New York or Boston?

     

    Bus transport here is pretty poor outside the main urban areas.

     

    I’ll rake around and see what options there are.

     

    Just as a wee possibility, some of the cruise companies have cruises up the east coast.

     

    I’ll check for links.

  8. a wee bit annoyed with myself, i swithered on picking dundee for LMS. just cos i thought rat mccann couldnt pick a winning team.

     

     

    however, ohara and allen.

     

     

     

    hahahahhahaha

     

     

    zombie monkey huns.

     

     

    hahahahhaha

  9. Off the topic of Celtic, Phil has just posted a blog about the Hearts accounts which he had his accountant chap as he calls him look at , they Hearts received £2.5m from a benefactor who is not named and for reasons unknown, what will this benefactor receive in return for this donation, nobody gives this kind of dough without an expection or receipt of something else, otherwise just say who it came from, hope the SFA are on this, dont laugh now.

  10. I know I know it’s mean and it’s no a very nice thing to do but when you come in from a very long day and you see the Sevvies got tanked it fairly brightens yer day:))

     

     

    Schandenfreude CSC

     

     

    Mark O’Hara fairly enjoyed his goals:))

  11. Deep deep joy tonight

     

    They are giving it to their Board but just don’t understand that these guys are giving their dinner money to keep the lights on!

     

    How any Sevconian with an ounce of acumen can believe that there is money in the bank at this moment is bewildering- they are completely taken in and in utter denial.

     

     

    Great fun eh?

     

     

    Have a great weekend bhoys

    Somebody was on moaning about “supporting” Bayern Munich on Wednesday night when they were playing Anderlecht.

     

    Is it not natural to support the team that are playing your enemies ?

     

     

    I was supporting Dundee tonight.

    fantastic song, you have now directed me to listen to Stop Making Sense, the best concert video ever, directed by Jonathan Demme, whatever happened to him

    Your trip to New England sounds great , my good lady and I have been to Boston twice but no further, it’s a great city the Freedom Trail is well worth walking and a trip to Harvard is a must ! Quincy Market , Boston Common etc. also good to visit and of course youv’e got the CELTICS over at TD Garden !!
