Celtic will win despite the First Minister

302

Let’s be clear on the rules, football has been granted special status and operate within different Covid guidelines to the rest of us.  This is why players could travel to and from the UK for international duty this month without having to isolate.   Players were permitted into Scotland this week who in the last two weeks have been to countries where they would normally have to isolate on landing here.

Nicola Sturgeon made a personal intervention into Celtic’s season when Boli Bolingoli broke isolation rules.  Celtic were not allowed to play for two weeks after this event.  I was so angry at Bolingoli I did not complain.  Rules were changed on the hoof to punish Celtic but there was culpability, so fair enough.

Ryan Christie is healthy.  He has been told to isolate at the whim of the same First Minister.  Kieran Tierney, who is also healthy, is also subject to political whim.  But not by a government that has kettled Arsenal fans in the manner this government kettled Celtic fans.

I grew out of political fantasies years ago.  Politicians are not your friend, they are not even good friends to those they share a rosette with.  My colours are green and white only, and we will win tomorrow despite the whim of the First Minister.

  1. In terms of the lead article I simply can’t believe the number of Celtic fans who think Sturgeon and the SNP can do no wrong. Sleepwalking into a nightmare always springs to mind.

  8. SOMEONE ELSE WROTE;

     

     

    Police Scotland have confirmed that the homes of two players from Celtic and Rangers were targeted by burglars on the eve if the big derby match.

     

    Scott Brown of Celtic had 7 League Cup Winners medals, 5 Scottish Cup Winners medals & 10 League Winners medals, a Young Scottish Players Player of the year award & 2 Scottish Players Player of the year awards stolen.

     

    Scott Arfield of Rangers had a a toaster & microwave stolen 🤪🤪

     

    😂😂😂😂💚💚🇮🇪🇮🇪🍀🍀

     

     

    ANOTHER WROTE;

     

     

    Arfield’s toaster was on tick as well. Need to pawn the sash his father wore to get soldiers with the eggs.

  9. Awe mhan….given awe the pish….am st 3-1 ;-))

     

     

    Beaton’ll probs keep us to 1 ;-))

     

     

    H.H.

  10. Brendan didnae have the fortitude that you have. That disnae mean to say that Brendan is weak.

     

     

    Showtime Lenny Bhoy.

     

     

    I wouldnae have Any other Manager.

  11. Arfield’s toaster was on tick as well. Need to pawn the sash his father wore to get soldiers with the eggs…belter..:)

  12. Given past controversies around Beaton, I’m not expecting any obvious cheatin fae Beaton today. He knows only too well how much scrutiny he’ll be under during this game.

  13. INIQUITOUSIV

     

     

    Subtle, I expect. ‘Accidentally’ getting in the way of our attacks etc. Feeling confident about the game, looking forward to it. Will be interesting to see how we line up, few spots up for grabs.

    Hello again all you young rebels.

     

     

    C’mon you Bhoys and Ghirls in the green, lets rise and shine.

     

    This is hun humpin day.

     

    Get the drink out the cupboard, beachballs, rubber ducks, sombreros,

     

    just to make sure they’re really buried this time plenty of pails and

     

    spades.

     

    I see the rest of the Aussie rebels have started partying, Dbhoy, Badger

     

    and PETEC is still up?

     

    It’s going to be a day to remember.

  16. Nothing pleases me more on the morning of a big game than seeing almost every pundit/hack going against us. It will make the win even sweeter knowing that the butthurt levels will be off the scale! Win the first ten minutes and not only does it set the tone for the rest of the game it minimises the non neutral affect Brother Beaton can have on the game.

  17. MELBOURNE MICK..

     

    Good morning Michael.

     

    The Huns may well have improved this season, but they havent faced a good passing team like Celtic so far ( when we are ON our game ?)

     

     

    I am hoping that we play TWO upfront and give their defence something to really worry about. Ive went radio rental whenever Ive seen ONE Celtic striker up against FOUR Defenders, running about mad just to try and get a kick of the ball…it drives me Nuts !

     

     

    Those Four Defenders usually end up looking like world beaters knocking the ball across their back line with only ONE Celtic man chasing everywhere….

     

    So Neil, please play with Two Strikers ?
