Henderson injured and Guidetti on the bench because he isn’t staying.
Good.
not keen on the line-up ….. KC and Johansen tend to drift forward, so almost ends up more like a 4-2-4 which leaves us too light in the middle (with only SB and NB … probably against 4 or 5 midfielders for Motherwell).
BBJ has really slipped down the pecking order … sadly.

Good team
j77. If that is the team it looks like Rony has lost patience with big John Guidetti. As much as I like big John if he doesnt want to stay play our own players and keep him for any injuries. H.H.

Some tool on the radio suggesting that Ronny has given Kris a game so he can say his farewells to the fans! Couldn;t make this stuff up…
The Green Man when did you go mate. I went 71-75. I came from cadder.

I have learned to appreciate the updates as I recover from surgery and can’t get to the upper level of the North Stand.
Keep them coming bhoys!
THB jnr will be joining me there next year as he is well smitten at last
Hope I don’t get a burd the night….I look a right eejit in these thermals.
Keevins stirring it up very subtly again…….he really is a wee fud….

Aye that’d be right cos RD would be sentimental like that ………not
but why let the truth get in the way of a good story????
Weefrathe Tim will see you then enjoy the game and give a special shout out for Kano from me please
HH
Sevco fan on talking a load of old shoite as well as keevins….. Top drawer comedy
happy griffiths gets a start – he’s hungry and knuckled down and deserves a run in the team. Gudetti needs to find a club , play season long games and build up stamina. Constantly changing clubs will do him no good at all (other than financially).
If winning cups , leagues with celtic is not enough then we need to let him go.
3-0 tonight
I was kinda hoping JG’s loss of form was a ploy by himself and the Celtic management to stop any other teams, probably from EPL, sniffing around and outbidding us… I’m a glass half full kinda guy.
67 heaven
Re Keevins……..agreed.
Weefrathe Tim
Sorry you never made the game but better to be safe than sorry there will be plenty more games for you, me and Jamesgang (God willing)

You know how much I love meeting up with you ghuys at CP, 2nd game missed this season, but I am sooooo looking forward to our big meet at the next home league game. KTF. :-))))

Henderson was ok v Hamilton but main reason for leaving him out is to stop him failing to reach an expectation level that as a youngster he is not yet capable of achieving.
RD does try and look after his players.
You know that circus music?
Bap Bah la la lala, dah dah rara?

That’s Keevins ya dafties – avoid, ignore, detour the carnival sideshow.

I’m with you on this one…. My concern is Stokes replacing Henderson.
The 4-2-3-1 worked to an extent when Henderson was deployed…. Mainly because he is a hard working midfielder…..
Tonight I think it will be a midfield 3 of Johansen, Bitton, Broony
A forward 3 of Stokes (wide left), Commons (Central) and Griffiths unfortunately coming in from the right flank.
Or possibly a midfield diamond….. Bitton sitting. Brown and Johansen Central. And Commons at top of the diamond….. Behind a front 2 of Stokes and Griffiths.
WeefratheTim
and me it seems so long from we last met at paradise
I’m having withdrawal symptoms lol
as long as the bhoys do the business tonight thats all that matters

::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Griffiths :::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Not much difference from Kilmarnock (Stokes in for Henderson), with Johansen/Griffiths standing out as a clear weakness up front. That shouldn’t matter as Celtic will no doubt dominate and one of the 10 or so shots on targets should go in. Solid team otherwise, particularly the midfield of Brown and Bitton.
In short, another workmanlike 4-2-3-1 line-up – enough to beat Motherwell, but a waste of these players’ abilities.
Hail hail from a very cold 112@CP
Auld shug spluttering about the audacity of Celtic to play Commons when the old duffer “exclusively revealed” Hamilton was his last game.
silly old fool
mighty tim supporting wee oscar
No problem whatsoever.
I did not go to St.Augustines i went to St.Mungo’s Academy and then All Saints.
Did you play for the school team from 1971 to 1975.HH

I guess we will see how they actually line up, but I share your concerns. Both Stokes and Griffiths to me are great as a striker, but not as effective when played wider.
I played up front as a youngster (never a great player), and always said that ‘goals win games’, and so thought strikers were the key. At the highest level, they probably still are. But, on anything less than that, and the games are won/lost in the middle of the park. Like the German team, the key seems to be dominate the middle, but have good talented mids who can move forward when the occassion arises.

>>>>>>>>
You’re right, of course …… I have been tuning in lately to TRY to follow Sevco’s fiasco / demise …. Hahahahahahaha ……. And as for DL ….hurtinhun, and not very bright
Cmon the hoops 3-0 tonight
HH
We’re 50 goals better off than Motherwell so far this season on GD.
Let’s hope this gulf is reflected tonight in the match.
‘Mon the Hoops, be confident!
(Having said that, any win’ll do me).

Not sure how much you watch Celtic….. But Commons hasn’t been employed in a wide position for quite some time.
Johansen has been put out to the right recently, ahead of Matthews… To accommodate Commons taking up a central role.
Have u watched the recent games?
mike in toronto and ruggyman
Griffiths played up front v Kilmarnock until Scepovic came on, and will play up front again. Commons and Stokes will play right and left.

Got Tims -3.@11/4.
