No excuses, please, Brendan

As a rule, I don’t like managers complaining about the pitch, the weather (Barbara is blowing in Hamilton right now), the ball or anything else prior to a game. Experience suggests if you give players an excuse to underperform, they’ll grab it with both hands.

The pitch at the Superseal (save us) Stadium Hamilton is more than adequate for a football match, let’s get on with it.

After a run of solid results Accies came off the rails in the last two games, losing narrowly to the top two: 1-0 away to Celtic then 1-2 to Newco in Hamilton. These are not the games which are important for Hamilton but losing twice by a single goal will sting. Barricades will be reinforced for Celtic tomorrow.

Brendan Rodgers has managed his squad subliminally well this month, resting players throughout but still putting a team on the field to win all, apart from the 1-1 away in the Champions League. He’ll know that anything less than 100% tomorrow brings the real risk of dropped points, so I’m far from sure he’ll be in the mood to rest anyone.

It’s been a couple of weeks since we saw images of Kieran Tierney back training. When he went through his operation we were told it would be January before we’d see him back, but he’s a fit lad, I wonder if he’ll be ready for 20 minutes on the magnificently smooth Lanarkshire surface.

    I’m happy to answer any queries you have by email but out of respect for all parties involved there’s some things that would be better kept quiet for the moment.

    I love your idea of a “fans cafe” but am sure the big bad PLC ghuys won’t buy it

     

     

    1. Let’s build a cafe for people who are going to come here anyway

     

    2. What will it do for the other 13 days of the fortnight

     

    3. When we have 3 home games in the space of ten days who will man the cafe

     

    4. What about the cafe between end of May & start of August apart from 3 qualifiers

     

    5 finally …….this cafe will cost us a fortune and make no money

     

    6 ……. Coias ?

    They have never been on tv in her hoose as she would be allowing evil in her home. :)

    GFTB: The café will be beside the Superstore, and just as successful. Build it and they will come.

    Oh dear. Rangers lose again but do manage 31st position.

     

     

    Clean Bandit land Christmas number one with Rockabye.

     

     

    Fans of Rangers football club fared better, pushing Glad All Over by The Dave Clark Five back into the charts at 31, as a “thank you” to striker Joe Garner, who joined the club from Preston this season.

     

    But the rise of streaming has effectively killed the chances of such campaigns making a dent on the Top 40.

     

     

    Per BBC Entertainment section of news Web site.

    In the past couple of months the Celtic support through the Foundation and the Green Brigade have raised almost £400,000 for those in need.
