Dundee have played 12 games since losing 6-0 at Celtic Park in September, scoring in all but one of those occasions. Only Celtic and Aberdeen have kept them out in 21 games this season. They lost five last time out to Ross County (scoring twice), but scored four against Accies the week before. Season tickets at Dens are excellent value for money. There will be goals when Celtic visit tomorrow.
Kane Hemmings scored five of their six goals against County and Accies. He’s a direct player who makes runs from deep into space but a large portion of his goals come as a consequence of defensive errors. In short, he appears to run at defenders in anticipation of them making a mistake, not a wholly unproductive strategy for strikers playing against Celtic this season.
Ronny Deila will be keen Celtic build on the positives from Tynecastle, although the on-going absence of Leigh Griffiths will be a concern. I reckon we would have seen Carlton Cole at some point against Hearts if it were not for the plethora of injuries which restricted the manager’s options. Hearts had done their homework on Nadir Ciftci, who was well marshalled throughout. He can expect a similar night tomorrow.
Partick Thistle’s role in the title race will come into focus over the next week. They are on an excellent run ahead of tomorrow’s visit to Pittodrie at Saturday’s game at Celtic Park, having won their last four league games. You can win two Premium Seat tickets in the Jock Stein Stand for Saturday’s game, courtesy of Magners, if you answer this question:
Who was the last Partick Thistle manager to win four consecutive top flight games?
Email your answer in the SUBJECT line to celticquicknews@gmail.com before 17:00 tomorrow (30th). My Partick Thistle knowledge is limited, so editors decision if final……

here comes a statement ……………….
and, who in the ibrox board-room thinks there is nothing wrong with the Billy Boys chant.
Is the blog running slow ?
It’s taking an age to load and refresh
I see the Vanguard Bears have been busy issuing there statement….
“Everyone knows that the vast majority of Rangers supporters are from the PUL community. Monday’s rousing rendition of the Billy Boys, Derrys Walls etc leaves nobody in any doubt. The vast majority of Rangers fans are proud of their heritage and there is no better sight or sound than the Blue Sea of Ibrox declaring it’s love for that heritage and history. It is spine tingling, and it helps bring the PUL community together like nothing else on God’s fine earth. It is also the only reason the Nationalist Stazi are so eager to consign it to the history books. Whilst the Rangers fans are in full voice, rallying the Unionist cause, independence will never happen! Billy Boys is football’s equivalent of the Haka!”
FFS, they reckon it was a minority
RANGERS believes it is appropriate at this time to remind everyone of the Club’s position on anti-social behaviour within football grounds.
The Club operates a zero tolerance policy and continues to work tirelessly via the Follow with Pride campaign while supporting all initiatives aimed at tackling this problem.
The football authorities and Police Scotland know the Club is committed to eradicating all forms of unacceptable behaviour and it is disappointing that a minority engaged in inappropriate singing during the match against Hibernian at Ibrox Stadium on Monday, December 28.
At every home and away pre-match operations meeting unacceptable conduct is included on the agenda with the attention of both the Police and Stewards drawn to the need to deal with this matter robustly.
The Club will assist Police Scotland in identifying those responsible for the unacceptable behaviour on Monday.
goodbye 2015
” It also doesn’t help right now that at least one member of the current Rangers board thinks that The Billy Boys is a tremendous song. This being the case, the club may well go backwards, not forwards.
On their dreaded songs issue, I hope this Rangers board go forward, not backward. I hope they are pro-active, not passive. I hope they acknowledge a potential threat, and don’t lapse into denial.
But, frankly, I’ll believe it when I see it. Banning writers who write about the issue is an ominous start.
It is now 39 years since Willie Waddell, then the Rangers general-manager, made an on-field public declaration which signalled an end to Rangers FC’s old anti-Catholic policy. I was there that day at Ibrox as a 12-year-old kid, though the fuss then was beyond me.
It remains my belief that, taking that day as a starting point, it will take 50 years for Rangers to fully flush out its bigoted baggage. There are pitfalls along that long road, as we witnessed again this week, but at least the journey is being taken. ”

………..that horrible mob can be as “anti-social” as they always have been………………it’s their bigotry and sectarian singing, as evidenced most recently in the Hibs game. which needs to be continually highlighted. We will never ever let them forget it ’till they finally and truthfully admit to themselves in full view of society what they are. Until then it is all just carefully worded spin and deflection.
Spiersy is clever, he habitually errs on the positive as far as the huns are concerned – always pulls his punches, and when you consider the topic he is apparently covering – shameful.
So we can now add ‘minority’ to the list of words of which they don’t know the meaning.
See ‘administration’ ‘liquidation’ ‘fit’ ‘proper’ ‘loan’ ‘founded’ ‘relegation’ ‘incorporation’. . . . .
TET

Well that’s us 15 minutes gone into the game at Dens and James Forrest has been totally anonymous.
Just thought I’d be first to get my dig in.

I think you are being unfair on James forrest . he isn’t the only player not getting involved. As for ronnys tactics, well they seem non existent tonight. Dundee aren’t much better, zero possession, zero shots on target. Scottish football is rubbish
SFTB
And their goal was off side but the SMSM will not mention it 2morra :-)
There will be trolls!
Sheep off the bar ooooooh
Number 12 on that list is proof that the Moon landings were faked
Number 20 is proof that The Holy Grail was an off-license shop
Number 65 is the reason why Stefan and Ronny moved to Glasgow
Number 69 shows that Lubo had some sex life
Let’s applaud the Hun Monkeys for being staunch and defiant in the face of encroaching civilization.
Let’s encourage them further to protest their heritage loud and proud. In fact let’s hear them vary it a little and actively remind them they could replace the word ‘fenian’ with ‘Muslim’ now and then…
Let’s see how brave they really think they are. No surrender, indeed. Shitebags…
disagree on James Forrest – looking like his best game yet
