Vacant third striker role. The Great Disgruntled

By on CQN BLOG & Comments

Sunday’s defeat to Celtic was by no means Hibernian’s worst result of the season.  The previous week they lost 3-0 at St Mirren.  Earlier in the League Cup, they won against Peterhead, Queen’s Park and Elgin, but lost on a trip over The Bridge to Kelty Hearts, a sore one on more than one level. 

Celtic’s visits to Easter Road have seldom been so straightforward, so confidence is high ahead of Sunday’s repeat encounter.  Brendan Rodgers will be wary of how he tripped up at the corresponding round of the League Cup a year ago.  That tournament is the only occasion he has not won a domestic competition over his two periods as Celtic manager, but he is likely to make his selections with an eye on the weeks ahead. 

Kyogo’s delicate shoulder, and Adam Idah’s limited action since his virtuoso performance at Hampden in May, gives the manager a dilemma.  Who to play up front?  Rocco Vata will be unaware of what he passed up when leaving Celtic, until later in life.  The third striker role remains open, for now. 

Hampden has the largest car park I have seen in front of a football stadium.  Ibrox, on the other hand, has no car park at the front of the stadium, disgruntled fans cannot loiter on Edmiston Drive. 

Despite Hampden’s neutral acre out front, you wonder if even this car park will be big enough to host the Great Disgruntled, should St Johnstone win tomorrow.

    With his early press conference comments – squarely pointing the finger of blame in the currants direction – Brendan surely swept away any lingering resentment that may have been held towards him by any unforgiving fans. He absolutely exudes authority, calmness and purpose – everything the Belgian waffler doesn’t.

     

     

    Re striker no.3 – surely it’d be right timing for the lad Kenny to be recalled from his Shamrock soujourn.

    Turkeybhoy – Quite simple we have a board that lacks any vision or foresight. Why we cannot bid £8Million for another player.

     

     

    Bada Bing – Exactly Brendan took up the role of someone on our board today by speaking against der hun, the same as his insight of “we at celtic could buy young players for 8 or 9 million and turn them into 25 – 30 million pound players”.

     

    OUR BOARD again no vision, cowards, liars, self interest and are pissing Brendan off.

    As to our 3rd striker question….if the answer is Mickey Johnson…I hav questions in how this question was framed

    THELURKINTIM – I got the impression from Brendan’s presser when he mentioned Mikey that MJ would need to seek pastures new. He probly carries a 3M + price on his head which would be good value for a Championship side. The lad Kenny has had some good write ups re his Shamrock stint.

     

     

     

    Some good toons Mr Clunks.
