Livi’s only win since August hangs over Celtic

128
By on CQN BLOG & Comments

Livingston pitch up at Celtic Park tomorrow with only one win and two draws from their 10 outings since August.  That victory came against the champions last month and is the principle reason we are not comfortably ahead at the top of the league table.  We owe them a backlash, Ryan Christie, in particular, may feel motivated to ensure no mistakes are made this time.

For all their indifferent form, they are strong defensively, having lost more than two goals in one game only once in 19 outings (a 3-1 defeat with 10 men at Ibrox).

Recent home games against Motherwell, St Mirren and Ross County saw Celtic swamp the opposition early on, before the tide was stemmed, with each game not being put to bed until the second half.  This is as much about energy as any assimilation requirements by opposing defenders.

We will start sharply tomorrow but it is only possible to maintain that level for so long before players begin to pace themselves.  An early goal, when Livingston are still chasing shadows, would take the stress out of the second half.

    Lenny said: ““Leigh Griffiths will be involved in the squad this weekend. He’s happy and I’ve seen enough to think he can make a contribution.”

     

     

    Hatem Abd Elhamed and Mo Elyounoussi will miss the clash as the Livingston match comes to soon for them both

    Don’t want to get too drawn into the political arguments. I just want to set some things into perspective. Labour’s spending plans would put our spending as a share of GDP to similar levels of Portugal & Greece. It would still be behind the likes of Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Belgium, Finland, France & Italy.

     

     

    The 5th largest economy in the world can’t feed it’s children and you wonder why?

    Testa di cazzo time .

     

     

    The word is Weejuns . A type of loafer. Cool ones were made by an American company called Bass – hence Bass Weejuns . Less cool ones could be sourced from Timpsons .

    So Elyounoussi will sit out tomorrow’s game

     

     

    I wonder who will take his place?

    I’d like to see Sinclair rather than Hayes or Morgan.

     

     

    Doesn’t seem as if Arzani & Johnston are available as they haven’t featured for the development side.

     

     

    Shved is a wildcard.

    The guy who sits in front of me in 106 is going to japan for Christmas if that is any help ????

    BSR…”friction”…wow! that’s a word I had long forgotten…

     

    …and I still have my full head of hair, a bit silvery now but still in full bloom :0)

    It’s a pity about Johnston as he was brilliant at the start of the season.

     

     

    Think Lenny will start with Hayes but agree i would prefer Sinclair was given a start

    ‘Livi’s only win since August hangs over Celtic’

     

     

    Resolution 12 hangs over Celtic.

     

     

    Fixed that for you.

    For all you Country Music fans out there BBC4 @ 9pm has a treat in store for you tonight.

     

    New series by renowned American film maker Ken Burns (Civil War/Vietnam) will look at the history of that particular genre. Narrated, appropriately some might say, by Peter Coyote….

     

    Howlin Wolf wasn’t available

    Hope there`s reference to Scottish and Irish influence.

     

    With Ken Burns , I would expect that there would be.

    Less than 24 hours.

     

    Let’s get away from distractions and concentrate on the three points.

     

    We have a heavy schedule ahead of us, 11 games in just over 5 weeks.

     

    I fully expect Neil to cautiously make use of his full squad.

     

    No matter who gets the nod I fully expect, nay demand a comfortable 4 goal victory.

    Cannot fail not to there be. (if that makes any kind of sense)

     

    Turns out Ken Burns is a distant relation to our own Robby so the Scots and Irish influence of and on the music will merit some examination I’m sure. Not to mention the Scots-Irish migration of the 18th century. Haven’t seen this series but know a wee bit about the work of Alan Lomax et al, and expect Burns to expand on that as is his way. A must see.

    Deelighted the Meaningful fitba is back the morra.

     

     

    Who knows if the SFA is sorted out, Celtic and even the New Rangers can get Together and do something good whilst helping the National Team & Game.

     

     

    The SFA need to be exposed Howevaaaaah. They appoint the influenza!!!!

     

     

    Always liked this clip and oh What a film.

     

     

    It was when the Barca team (IMO the best ever club side with Xavi in there) were doing so much that Spain done so much. Callum may not be @ Xavi levels but he is a Fantastic Scottish equivalent.

     

     

    COYBIG the morra.

    Fourstonecoppi at 1.59, sorry for replying so late. No problem at all.

     

     

    Tomorrow will hopefully be another succesful foodbank drive organised by the Green Brigade. Our support’s genoristy in the foodbank drives by both the club and Green Brigade has been exceptional. .

     

     

    I can’t think of us not scoring against a Scottish team for four games on the trot before. The ref tomorrow will let the Livi players’ enthusiastic attitude go unchecked .

    A bit strange in the live Scottish Cup from Linlithgow versus Falkirk tonight. Not only have the junior team fans forgot to bring their butcher’s apron to display, neither have the wee wee Huns as well !

     

    Maybe there is hope.

    Some Star Trek puns might be in order, don’t think we’ve had those before
