    The BBC tell us ‘Goldson aims to quieten Celtic Park’.

     

     

    He certainly quietened half of Hamden when he his (red card) challenge on Eddy led to our goal!

  2. I have to admit that Jullien and Bolingoli make me a tad nervous but, overall, I like that team.

     

     

    For me, neither of today`s teams look particularly solid at the back so it could be a high scoring game. If so, I would hope for SFTB`s 13-0.

  3. Just in case the SFTB is too polite to repost, here is his from the other article:

     

     

    “SETTING FREE THE BEARS FOR RES. 12 & OSCAR KNOX on 29TH DECEMBER 2019 11:35 AM

     

    Looks like Lenny has re-considered his experimental team of the past few weeks and is less worried about their flooding the midfield now that we have Odsonne back. He is now taking the high risk strategy of having them worry about us- with Frimpong & Jamesie up one side and the in-form Mikey alongside Boli on the other. He still has N’tcham in reserve though, if it is going wrong and Olly is a player who enjoys and turns up for these games”

    Well, that’s the team most would have gone for.

     

     

    Let’s see what happens.

     

     

    2-0 to the good guys.

  5. BBC site has a list of entities, from the last decade, that are no longer with us.

    We are playing another one of them at CP later today

  6. C’MON THE CELTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

     

     

    And to those attending the game…………..stay safe!

     

     

    HAIL HAIL!

  7. It’s a bold selection from Lenny, not one I would have made, given they’ll flood the midfield and press high but it looks like we’ll go wide and long.

     

     

    Our players need to be brave on the ball and get into them early.

  8. The Blogger Formerly Known As GM on

    UGHAVE – unfortunately there will be 700 rockets and bangers supporting the opposition.

     

     

    I’ll get my coat.

  9. Ever since Rangers went out of business, I stopped going to the Tribute Act games as I felt I was then contributing to the Lie.

     

     

    The fact that I am still desperate to beat them, though, is a wee bit confusing. What was that famous CQN expression? Cognitive Dissonance?

  10. With Edy playing today, I can’t see them playing a high line with a super high press as that’s suicidal. I am struck however by the total amount of pace in this Celtic team with Frimpong, Mikey, Eddy, jamesy, Ryan and also Boli. We can be lethal on the break today so I expect Rangers to bunker down more and try and dominate with Davis and Camara, so I think Christies role today will be vital in pressing and disrupting them in possession. There could be a high score today so Il will take us 4-2. HH

  11. Kris Boyd straight out the gates with an insistence that if Celtic win today the league is not over.

     

     

    I can smell his fear.

  12. Kris Boy, what a moron saying that a similar performance from the League Cup will get Rangers the win today. No it wont, If they play a high defensive line then Eddy, Mikey and Frimpong will destroy them.

  13. Just had a quick look at Hesgoal. The pitch does not look its usual, immaculate self.

     

    Is it as bad as it looks?

  14. I’m grateful for Christie in big matches like this, as he can close down and press when we are having to defend whereas Rogic simply cannot do that as well. I also attribute this change in the number 10 role for our improvement both domestically and in Europe. I also think Lennon sees that also, although big Tam is a good back up for games when we are on the ascendancy.

  15. That’s the team I’d have picked were it my choice.

     

     

    Get at them wide, run at them, they don’t have the pace nor the guile to match us.

     

     

    A win by two clear goals today.

     

    Match their work rate early on and they will tire, then play football they can’t match.

  16. Christie in the middle will win this game – they’ll double up on the wings and Ryan will do his stuff with the extra room.

  17. I’m going for 5-0 with them going down to ten because they can’t handle getting beat.

     

     

    Think Broony will score, Edouard to get at least a brace.

     

     

    Not alcohol fueled confidence. Only on my second beer, just incase you’re wondering or my wife is looking in..:)

  18. CELTIC: Forster; Frimpong, Jullien, Ajer, Bolingoli; Brown, McGregor, Forrest, Christie, Johnston; Edouard.

     

    Subs: Gordon, Bitton, Griffiths, Bauer, Hayes, Rogic, Ntcham

  19. would have preferred ntcham to keep solid midfield and bring on Mikey for impact – this is risky and lets hope it pays off – we need to get on the front foot.
