This time last year there was far too much talk about trebles on these pages. Celtic were flying in all three competitions, having established a lead in the league, and were heading for a League Cup semi-final against Falkirk. Falkirk were beaten but it took a late Anthony Stokes goal to make the game safe for Celtic. The script was written; a final against Kilmarnock, who always bottled it against Celtic in Glasgow, and a successful run in the Scottish Cup was all that stood between us and the fourth treble in our history.
I’ve lost count of how many such trebles we’ve look forward to. Football has a way of promising lots but it takes an exceptionally good and consistent team to win both cup competitions, as well as the league. More often than not, great and dominant teams don’t win the treble.
Celtic are a great and exciting team but they have not been nearly consistent enough to win the treble this season. We have lost two from eight home games and two from seven away. Good enough to win the league but not to win two cups.
I watched a bit of St Mirren at home to Ross County before heading to Celtic Park last weekend. They were far from impressive but no less so than when we beat them by seven goals in the SPL four years ago. The following week the same team knocked us out of the Scottish Cup.
Sunday is one of the biggest games currently on the roster. Raise your game, Celtic.

Hold that extension Charlie bhoy
Hope the Montrose fans and players never had the audacity to celebrate their goal! If I were Chuck I’d be demanding an apology! oh what fun awaits at tannadice next weekend hahaha
Apparently subconsciously the fact that Sevco are so far ahead and will have to play in the bottom tier again next year, is having an effect on their players.
What a load of garbage that is to put it mildly.
If/when we make the final who would you prefer to play
Hearts = DREADFUL and down one player
or
ICT= Bit better (IMHO)down 3 players
Just do it celtic :))
Heehee, chico says Sevco booed off the park…….
The closest CQN Coupon yet – 6 correct and 1 draw. Inverness the guilty party.

The boy just skelped it as hard as he could from 25yards. Tight into the tap corner hits the underside of the bar and into the roof the net.
Cue silence.

Which one???
Surely there must be some kind of legal recourse against a late equaliser by an 11 man – yes, 11- Montrose?
There must be precedents for a challenge.
That’s Montrose wasted Saturday night for 500 million ‘peepil’…the cheek of them!

The Highland huns or the Mini huns don,t really care who we get in the final
Big Zaliukas will miss the final too, if they get through.
CHARLES GREEN has revealed his dream to turn Ibrox into Scotland’s biggest stadium.
The Rangers chief claims he’ll fill in the corners of the ground and add another deck to the Govan Stand if the Third Division side fight their way through the leagues and go on to secure regular Champions League action.
He said: “We wouldn’t be frightened of doing it once we know we have the demand — and the top league in Europe would deliver that.”
