We know what to expect from Aberdeen tonight. They will flood (pardon the pun) central midfield, defend deeply and, let’s be clear, they will score any time we allow them the kind of space they exploited at Celtic Park this month.
Question is, what will Celtic do about it? If Stefan Johansen’s ankle knock keeps him out the central-mid triangle of Johansen, Brown and Biton will be disrupted, and surely Neil Lennon will not revert to a central two after the Scottish Cup lesson. The picture is further complicated by the injury to Emilio Izaguirre, which forced Charlie Mulgrew back at the weekend. Mulgrew would be a suitable direct replacement for Johansen.
In 10 years doing this stuff I’ve probably used no more than a few dozen words to praise emerging young talent; it’s been a rough decade in that respect. Without wanting to go overboard in any way, Darnell Fisher has looked more than comfortable at right back in the absence of Mikael Lustig and Adam Matthews. Darnell’s problem going forward will be that he has two excellent international players ahead of him in the pecking order, but for tonight, I would be tempted to bring Matthews to left back (if he can do it against Barcelona….) and restore Fisher to the right back slot. This would allow Charlie to sit alongside Scott Brown and Nir Biton in central-mid.
Well done to Frank McAvennie, who is jumping out of an aeroplane 15,000 feet in the air. You can play your part in this exercise by supporting the Quarriers run, Chavey Down residential home, in Newton Mearns, which helps young people up to the age of 16.
The need is for sensory equipment, toys and wheelchair-appropriate play areas. To contribute, go to Frank’s JustGiving page, or text FMSD 89 followed by £1, 2, 3, 5, 10 to 70070.

Danso – “there is a society of protection for corruption in what ever form”
I’m part of that “society” and I want specifics which have been sadly lacking in your posts thus far

the sun is out here in the east.
Anyway, I decided lastnight that I am entering the Thames 100k ultra this September.
It got me thinking – its a wee while now since some of us ran Glasgow 10k for Kano. But this (and many other events since) demonstrated the power of this forum to improve the lives of others.
Can anyone suggest a green-related cause which I could seek sponsorship for?
And of course, if anyone wants to…you can always join me – the only obligation is to complete the 100k in under 15 hours…
some ideas in here malceye

Er, No it isn’t. We’ve been over this before.
Danso –
that twice I have asked for specifics and had no response. So, in “lawyer speak”, let’s break this down –
do you think the decision today by Lord Tyre was part of this ‘corrupt society’ thing you talk of?

Is Lord Tyre related to the King of Tyre?
—————–
Yes you are correct he is related to Tom Farmer
careful Danso, I think you’re sparring with a lawyer!
are you really looking for specifics on the corruption of society in this case?
My uncle Freddie was a bus driver. He was also an amateur boxer. Every time the conductress rang the bell he leapt off his seat and came out punchin’. :-)
