Celtic players will feel aggrieved at what happened when we last met Hibernian at Celtic Park in February. With the game tied at 1-1 and Celtic pressing for the winner, VAR controversially recommended a red card to Auston Trusty. Celtic continued to press but Hibs hit them on the counter and took all three points. There is a score to settle.
To some, our campaign looked in tatters that night. The following seven fixtures included six away from home; league, cup and European campaigns were on the line. One horrendous performance at Tannadice apart, Celtic prevailed across that impossible-looking run and the campaign in their own hands.
We have to make the most of Hibs weakness. Right back Passlack, who scored at Celtic Park in February, is suspended, as is goalkeeper Sallinger. Test them down our left, cross low into the heart of the box and let’s give the sub keeper a busy day.
Six different Celtic players scored across out last two games. You feel the squad needed to break the seal to get goals flowing again. I’m less concerned about our front line than I was a month ago. The key aspect on Sunday is to maintain intensity in the middle of the park. Hibs tend to flood the middle, which will make this more difficult. Going long and going early might be a good option.

Happy Oaks day!
Hail Hail
“The key aspect tomorrow is to maintain intensity in the middle of the park.”
Let’s not use all the intensity tomorrow P67, let’s keep it for Sunday.
Auldheid @ 11:58 am,
Stop treating people like idiots…
Several times I’ve put perfectly reasonable questions to you – everytime you’ve failed to answer.
Now, please, don’t misdirect – answer the anomilies I put to you.
While your at it, give us the proof you promised, that Brendan Rodgers was fraudulent.
Hail Ha
Robbie Keane is a no from me……
Would actually prefer Steve Clark, think if we had him from start of the season we would have pissed it by now..
The vacated role of Greg Taylr..the inverted full back, has left us looking light in midfield throughout the season. Instead greater emphasis on the CHs to break the lines, a role Scales consistently struggles with.
The midfield for me is key. Nygren, bizarrely , shouldn’t be an automatic starter .
Keep the high baws low

Report to be filed.:‐)

I was there that night and caught up in it. It was a total disgrace. A charge designed to cause injury.
BSR from previous blog.
It’s got a lounge bar anaw. Majority of patrons are hun.
Have we forgotten that in the aftermath of Trusty being (correctly) sent off, we were (incorrectly) denied a penalty kick?
The foul on Scales met all of the requirements for a penalty in those circumstances, as discussed at length by Willie Collum on the VAR show.
It was 1-1 with 15 minutes to play.
Hibs went on to win.
The consequence of the decision not to award a penalty is a probable point, perhaps 3.
We do indeed have some wrongs to settle on Sunday.

Jota’s dug is apparently called ‘Cowboy’ not that it has any relevance to the CQN shower.
Its racist to call a Dog “Cowboy” some would say.
It sometimes feels a bit like watching someone doing furiously doing widths, weeing, while everyone else is doing lengths. Perhaps that was me but looking in it doesn’t look like a very productive or pleasurable pursuit.
It must have been the case at one point but I don’t ever remember being confident going to Easter Road. A Bona fide bogey team, but we go into it in better form than any time fit a while and with a striker scoring goals and another goal scoring option in the bench. Tick this one off and then turn our attention to sorting out our record against the Hun
You won’t get rid of the PLC Tory apparatus if you keep buying a circa 1,000 quid season ticket.
They’ll laugh their erchies aff at you for being a weak coward who is all talk and no balls.
Then they’ll give you Maloney, or boring David Gray as manager, once Hibs get rid of him, to let the Huns big and wee destroy the Celtic one horse league monopoly.
The PLC will be secretly hoping that the big Huns win the league so that they go straight into the CL group stages and get their hands on 40 Million+ CL money.
Because Old Firm R Us is what Celtic PLC is all about now.
That is because the PLC did not execute they’re duties in 2012, when they should have barged they’re way into the narrative and DEMANDED that David Murray be punished for the EBT scam, not tens of thousands of football fans losing their club to a Knight of the Realm.
Celtic PLC would have lessened the intensity between the fans of both clubs if they would have steered the EBT Narrative along the lines of, “FOOTBALL FANS CANNOT BE PUNISHED FOR DAVID MURRAY’s CRIMES” and the Huns would probably have applauded Celtic PLC for demonstrating what Integrity really means!
Every dog on every street can see it these failures..
If they had put David Murray in jail in 2012, like he would have done to them if the situation with EBT’s was in reverse, then the Huns wouldn’t have lost their club and turned the SPL into a one horse league since 2012.
If auld MON is not in on the Celtic PLC Old Firm inside job sabotage, then why does he too play every game with one striker????
Is there anybody within the Celtic building who can be trusted on ANY issue????
Celtic aren’t Celtic anymore since 2012, with a PLC who operates like that, and with fans/sheeple who just suck it up then blame the PLC like hypocrisy that should never be allowed to darken Celtic’s door.
If you love Celtic as you claim, then stop supporting those who use it as a lucrative hobby at best, or a deceptive mechanism to utterly shaft tens of thousands of innocent, well meaning, Celtic supporters, most of whom have never saw Celtic being led by a leader!
Celtic have had ZERO leaders since the PLC trap was put into place.
Sir/Lord Haughey and David Low will just give you more of the same using different words.
Why would any “real” Celtic supporter like these two claim to be, try to trick you into buying season tickets to keep the utterly awful Tory PLC structures in place?
Sad are the homes….
The obfuscation is strong today, maybe it’s because of the high pressure we have been having recently.
It has been well documented that deliberate introduction of confusing, irrelevant, or overly complex information is often used by some to distract from the weakness of their remit.
Calling a dog a cowboy is obviously misgendering and depending on the colour of the dog could be seen as a form of animal racism.

Exactly!
Woof! Woof!
Here’s the VAR discussion of the Scales (not given) penalty v Hibs: https://youtu.be/Rb8BPN5Z-Fk?list=PLRi0DI6Eo0dzHo7aEPPKuAViDn2uBQ4pz&t=942
The Trusty decision immediately precedes it.
Both are worth your time, but the Scales reasoning is likely to be applied in many more future matches.
Ate, we look like a team with players who ‘settles scores’.
Anyway, any co-incidence in Brian Wilson’s crap yesterday and the renewals being out?
Mmmmm?
If you’re narked about the timing of season ticket renewals ( a common grouse at this time of year), bear in mind that the deadline at Ayebrokes closed before the first match of the split, with the first payment due today.
One should never use the enemy as a yardstick.
NEWS JUST IN….
Perth Scotland – sad to see. Hope nobody is seriously hurt.
Innocent People need to wake up and protect their families before that is outlawed as well.
THIS could be anywhere now!
If you are not one of the chosen ones then you are on the menu!
We need to SOMEHOW put Blue vs Green, Green vs Orange, Black vs White, etc all aside and somehow join as one vs the International Finance Controllers who are manipulating Governments through compromise, etc, to destroy their own countries, and its MILLIONS OF INNOCENT peoples from within.
Waking up is a far safer option than virtue signaling for the Genocidal Pied Pipers.
Only ONE political party stands against International Capitalism.
That is why the media don’t want you to know they exist.

Sad are the homes of the wilfully blind….
LIONSROAR67 – (from last thread) excellent post picking apart the Brian Wilson interview. I would encourage you to repost it here.
Anything would be better than watching a thread on game day strategy wither on the vine as more weighty issues go unaddressed.
BURNLEY78 on 1ST MAY 2026 10:44 AM
Celtic supporters.
Yeah right.
Self serving nonentities who have never done bigger all in there pathetic wee lives.
Sure moan about folk who have done stuff (or have tried to) from behind your little keyboards. Make up narratives to suit your sad bitter wee agendas.
……………………..
That is one of the most loathsome posts I have ever read on CQN. It should earn you a red card.

🚨 The Season Ticket renewal window is now open!
🏟️ Secure your place at Celtic Park and take your seat in Paradise once again to roar the Bhoys on through the 26/27 season 👇
#ParadiseOnYourMind | #CelticFC🍀
AULDHEID – I appreciate your observations and the board would do well to remember that there are those in the support who know what their job entails, and are perfectly capable of accurately criticizing them when they don’t do it. The club is a case study in governance failure obscured by operational success.
Figures you addressed in a series of posts:
– Wilfried Nancy – 100% agree with you that “I would not have given him the job based solely on his communication ability and his messages”. It was not a language issue, it was a lack of presence and confidence.
– Gianni Infantino – 100% agree with you. An absolute Canute of a man. Sucking up to the vile Donald Trump with a FIFA peace prize just about sums him up.
– Brian Wilson – He is doing his job and serving his master. Lest we forget, BW is the face for the message because MN doesn’t speak, and DD saves his words for stuff that he cares about. My thoughts on the interview yesterday were extremely well captured by the post from LIONSROAR67.
I haven’t received a notification yet. I hope everyone will hold onto their money until deadline day just as the Board do during transfer windows.
RENEW ONLINE ONLY FOR 2026/27
Season Tickets are now only available to renew exclusively online at eticketing.co.uk/celtic for next season’s campaign. We no longer issue renewal packs by post, however the Ticket Office team will be on hand to provide help and support with any queries you have relating to your renewal. The deadline for renewing your season ticket is 5pm on Friday, May 29.
In a statement posted to X, the Collective said:
“For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Celtic Fans Collective nor any affiliated groups have been consulted by Celtic FC on a new supporter engagement model.
“Without meaningful fan input, any structure the Club introduces will have no credibility from the outset.”
The 0-0 against Hibs earlier in the season was another game we should have taken three points.
Don Robertson was on fire that day. From my position behind the goals you could see him deliberately ignoring the time wasting, just turned his back and walked away . Only three minutes in the end
“For it is the month of Mary, The lovely month of May”
“Bring flowers of the fairest
Bring flowers the rarest,
From garden and woodland and hillside and dale;
Our full hearts are swelling,
Our glad voices telling
The praise of the loveliest flower of the Vale!
O Mary, we crown thee with blossoms today!
Queen of the Angels, Queen of the May.
O Mary, we crown thee with blossoms today,
Queen of the Angels, Queen of the May.”
Not to mention continually breaking up play with non existent fouls
TT
Those hymns bring happy memories of primary school
Another TT hasn’t been on for a while.
I miss TINYTIMS pessimism. I would feel a lot better if he posted a bit of doom and gloom for the remaining games.
Only joking 🙃

Being a Celtic supporter is not just about the matches; we don’t think about the team for only 90 minutes a week. Celtic is a part of our lives, in our thoughts every day; a club woven through the fabric of our personality. Paradise is on our minds, no matter where we are.
During a meeting at work, we’re thinking about our next league match. When getting a haircut, we’re talking about the Scottish Cup final. Out for lunch at the local cafe, we’re thinking about the starting line-up we’ll see running out on to the pitch this weekend from our beloved seat at Celtic Park.
Because no matter what happens, being a Celtic fan is for life. And your place in Paradise among 60,000 other Celtic fans is yours, through it all.
