I watched Hibs hustle Hearts off their game yesterday. 15 games unbeaten, they are third in the table and after beating Celtic and Hearts in consecutive weekends, have a confidence unknown in Leith in recent decades.
Their Scottish Cup visit to Celtic Park on Sunday matches the best team in the country against the form side; it will be a genuine test. Their unbeaten run started after their last visit to Celtic Park, which ended in a bizarre 3-0 for the champions. Hibs shredded the Celtic defence that day but, lacking in confidence in front of goal, they ‘Hibs it’ every time.
Beat Celtic, and they become favourites for the Cup. This is a substantial motivation Celtic would be wise to match.
Saturday’s three goal win at St Mirren also fell into the bizarre category. St Mirren passed up numerous good chances during the game, scored twice and were in the hunt until a very late collapse flattered Celtic.
Substitutions lifted Celtic, although not through Jota, as expected. The arrival of Luke McCowan and Yang lifted everyone, most notably Reo Hatate, who pivoted from disappointing to dominant. Yang continues to prove what you and I know. Scout well, provide a clear development path, and the system works.

I think eventually THE MILITARY will step in to stop THE RUSKIES.
What could happen is some person in AYRSHIRE with a tractor and a plough could take a wee trip on his golf course and get it read for planting.

Surprising lack of respect sharing the prolix offering of another blogger who is oft minded to denigrate the platform provided by our genial host.
Brass-neckery and arrogance.
