St Johnstone have gone five games without a goal – and that includes a home game against Hamilton. They remain in the League Cup, but if they beat Hibs next week, will remarkably have reached the final after only facing lower league opposition. Their only Scottish Cup game against top-flight opponents ended in defeat.
What they can do is defend better than Hamilton, or several others in the league. They kept Celtic to three last month (which these days is an achievement), before keeping a clean sheet against Hearts. Only Celtic, Aberdeen, Hearts and Partick have conceded fewer.
Tomorrow’s game is one Celtic will be confident of winning, but chances will not be as easy coming as they were on Tuesday night.
I get it. The SFA have guidance which suggests New Douglas Park, one of the smallest grounds in Lanarkshire, should be the venue for our Scottish Cup game against East Kilbride. With 6,000 seats it is less than half the size of Fir Park, which is less than 3 miles away. Moving the game to Fir Park would generate a significant amount of much needed money for grassroots football in Scotland.
Think about that……. generate money for grassroots football in Scotland. Do the decent this and move this game to Motherwell. If you want to register for a ticket, do so here.
The more who register, the more reason the SFA have to agree to Fir Park as the venue.
Keep an eye on the game at Pittodrie tonight. I watched 10-man Aberdeen come from behind away to Ross County last week, they were very impressive, but our nearest challengers have developed a blind spot against Dundee.
Three points and a clean sheet tomorrow, please, Celtic.

Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapses. He doesn’t seem to be breathing and his eyes are glazed. The other guy whips out his phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps, “My friend is dead! What can I do?” The operator says, “Calm down. I can help. First, let’s make sure he’s dead.” There is a silence; then a gun shot is heard. Back on the phone, the guy says, “OK, now what?”

Delaneys Dunky after watching Dundee last week against PT I put a bet on today. Jezzo I am the worst pundit in the whole world:(
Nae time to read back, I’m fair confused so ah um. Has the cup tie been moves to our regal and illustrious Hampden?
Maggie- there was/are no neutral countries. These days there are even no countries even, only banks. But I get the feeling you are aware of this already.

An Tearmann, @4.26pm,
You are close. The relics you are talking about are in St Peter’s, West Street, Drogheda.
*saw then myself over 20 year ago. Also saw a young lad with a Leeds United top on. First thought was WTF, is this not the place that Cromwell massacred 3500 Catholics.
Also urinated in the boyne then as well.
SOAL…….. I remember that one! :)

huh? what browser are you using?
Still trying to fathoms GMS’s performance vs Hamilton. Where has the kid been?
Has Ronny been pulling a fast one by keeping his legs fresh for the second half of the season?
I thought he was outstanding, and the fact that he also operated centrally didn’t go unnoticed.
HT
I said many. Not all :)
I can call in the cavalry if you want
Weefra,
Yep, all well here thanx….except my nicotine cravings coupled with a toothache…;-))

GMS was my stand out player on Tuesday.
Nice to see him with that infectious smile again. :)
I wish Greenlion would get his fat arse back on the blog

Do you mean google chrome?
It doesnt matter what your device is. On your device is a browser app. Disable adobe flash plugin by default on that browser app else your CQN front page with all the plugin advertisements will spend forever reloading and re-positioning your mouse/pointer and screw up any submit status on a time frame depending on your wifi or cellular bandwidth. Its frustrating.
Re the BBC ban at Ibrokes…..is this the same publically funded company that threw money at Sevco following their adventures in the lower leagues…nope, they defo do not do irony ;-))
