Focus shifts to Pittodrie

923

Tonight Aberdeen play the second of a run of three consecutive away games. After overcoming St Johnstone 3-4 in Perth a week ago they are on the road to face Inverness. The Highlanders have not lost in a month, and haven’t lost at home since the visit of Celtic in November, so John Hughes men will provide a stern test for Aberdeen.

Aberdeen are back on the road to Firhill on Friday night. Their season has been free of fixture congestion. This is a rare week with two games, and an even rarer one with two away games. It could be a pivotal period in the campaign.

Celtic won comfortably in the end against Ross County but confidence seemed at a low ebb until Leigh Griffiths opened the scoring. Sentiment may have swung in our favour before we take to the field at home to Inverness on Saturday.

  1. When Ronnie comes out with the cautionary comments about Roberts re “fitness,up to speed” etc.I despair.

     

     

    Why,because the same Ronnie for the last 3 games I believe, brings on Forrest for the last 10 mins and he contributes ZERO ,so what is it with this guy he tries the same thing repeatedly with NO end product.

     

     

    Cant be any risk giving Roberts a run,we play with Forrest so where’s the risk.

     

     

    Regarding the Inverness game,loss of Hayes a key element in my view.

  2. blantyretim is praying for the Knox family on

    According to freestate Celtic are beating Dunfermline 4 0 (14 minutes ago)

     

    Christie with 2 andRoberts also with 2

    Not at all, I watched it on the presser and Ronny implied a delay in when we’d see Patrick Roberts. I think thats fair enough when you consider the other pro’s whose nose would be out of joint if Paddy was thrown right in at his age, ahead of everyone.

     

     

    That said, hope he does for Saturday.

  4. I casually switched on radio shortbread to hear the game and then Aberdeen took the lead. I switched the radio and what happens ?

     

    One each.

     

    Such is the power of the radio (writes the man who stayed in the bath and kept the radio on, to ensure Scotland kept the lead against France in September 2007)

  5. prestonpans bhoys on

    First time I’ve seen the sheep this season, not impressed at all. Also wish the guy would stop saying they could go top tonight, only if it was a cricket score…..

  6. BSR-we are badly in need of someone to light CP up right now,don’t want to put pressure on a young boy,but he seems confident enough HH

  7. SydneyTim says sack Lawell now on

    Some interesting comments regarding the CEO failure in last post

     

    Have to Laff at the Peter fan club staying we can’t afford to speculate

     

     

    Not seen any of the Lawell out team ( true Celtic fans). Say that

     

    We spend enough money but just wrongly

     

    As one poster said. We need projects and experience and youth in our team

     

    Not all projects. That’s why we don’t have a chance at CL as the lesser teams that we get beat by , would sign a 30 year old if he was good for team

     

     

    Pps. Insult to intelligence paul 67. As if anything that happens at Aberdeen will have any bearing on the league

     

     

    The rubber plant in the foyer at Celtic park could be the manager and we will still be champions

     

    Stop trying to bum up things that are not important to Celtic

     

    Champions league qualifiers are important to Celtic Focus on that and you might realise it’s more important to back fans than a failed CEO

  8. Roberts subbed after 75 minutes based on Tweets looks like he had another great game. Hopefully Ronny has him in mind for at least the bench next Saturday.

  9. Jungle Jim Hot Smoked on

    Who is the English guy co-commentating? He certainly does not like Celtic very much judging by the comments I have heard him make.

     

    Murdochauldandhay,

     

    Taylor`s foot was certainly high ( and he might have caught Draper`s foot as well )but I would have been annoyed had it been given against us .
