Keep an eye on Pittodrie

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.

  6. I’ve been alone with you inside my mind

     

    And in my dreams I’ve posted a thousand times

     

    I sometimes see you pass outside my door

     

    Hello, is it me you’re looking for?

     

     

    I can see it in your words

     

    I can see it in your article

     

    You’re all I’ve ever wanted, and my arms are open wide

     

    ‘Cause you know just what to say

     

    And you know just what to do

     

    And I want to tell you so much, I back for you

     

    I long to Read you getting on my wig

     

    And tell you time and time again how much I care

     

    Sometimes I feel my anger overflow

     

    Hello, I’ve just got to let you know

     

    ‘Cause I wonder where you are

     

    And I wonder what you do

     

    Are you somewhere feeling lonely, or is someone else reading you?

     

    Tell me how to get you back

     

    For I haven’t got a clue

     

    But let me start by saying, get back you bans and ignore the few

    Cheers my mate keeps going on about going in April for official dates. Thought he had got it wrong. Can you recommend a hotel that will be closed to the action.

  11. Where’s the righteous indignation over the Bearbak fightbak…..is it ok to imply threats against churnalists & their families…..am surprised at the lack of comments decrying the content of this…..

     

     

    H.H.

  12. LP: Any hotel in Dublin 1,2,3 or 4 will leave you close to the action. Some posters booked into The Skylon hotel in Drumcondra for our event and that is ideal for city centre, airport and our venue.

     

     

    Hope that helps.
