We want a win, but let’s not kid ourselves

964

We are almost week on from Morton (our only mustn’t lose game in March) but there will be a business-like atmosphere around Lennoxtown today as the team prepare to go to Ibrox, scene of three consecutive wins since Newco were promoted to top flight football.  Brendan and his players are all too aware of the big talk coming from Murray Park.  If ever they needed motivation, they didn’t need to look far.

Fans of either colour, who have been around long enough, will recognise the occasion, but this is not the way you and I used to feel about going to Ibrox.  Back in the old days I preferred to go there as slight underdogs, which was often as good as it got for Celtic fans.  Now, we travel to every ground in the country as strong favourites, no matter what our form.  This is nothing like it was in the pre-liquidation years.

I want to win, of course, but I would have been devastated if we’d lost to Morton.  Sunday’s game cannot reach me the same way.  This is a step on the road to what will hopefully be a treble, don’t pretend it is about winning the league, it’s just not.

****CQN Last Man Standing 10 – Kicks off tonight with a 7pm deadline for entries. No more sleeps!!!!****

  1. KA Rampaging through the Sevco midfield….

     

     

    Going alone or doing Something noone has ever seen before.

     

     

    Kris. Do it.

  2. I’m a big critic of Mikael, said for ages.

     

     

    The Goal @ house of horrors, was magical.

     

     

    The Great Mikael is not the answer now.

     

     

    Brilliant Celt.

  3. It is upon them.

     

     

    Hunskelping Sunday when the corrupt Mothers get it.

     

     

    Whatever you decide, Brendan, play eight around the holy hunskelping trinity of BROON, KOUASSI and NTCHAM as an impregnable midfield force from which we dominate and build.

     

     

    Twelve hours from now we’ll be 2 up.

     

     

    I fancy another 5. Take the ball off them, Celtic, and let them chase it.

     

     

    Wee yappy scraggy rabid mongrels nipping at the heels of the big Celtic Tiger going after its 7th stripe.

     

     

    Gie them the big paw.

    Hello to all my friends on CQN. Not visited here for months. I have had major negative issues healthwise, going on in my body, but mainly between my ears. In and out of Gartnaval Royal Hospital regularly. Hoping my mental health can improve going forward. Have chucked the consumption of alcohol and MaryJane. DTs are difficult but got there. Praying that my team can go to the viper den later and show us a performance to remember forever. Think we will be proud of our team tomorrow. The NHS is struggling but they have many excellent professionals working for them. Praise the Lord.

     

    Go for it Celtic.

     

    Thank you to Celtic and my faith to keep me alive.

     

    Hail Hail

    Kev reminds me of my late father.

     

    My da hated the Whites and Kellys. He chucked Celtic games when we sold Kenny to Liverpool in 77. He never saw us live again till he died in 2013 sadly.

    Thank you. Our team do not believe the SMSM or hun hype. Moussa Dembele will show the Colombian how to be a striker today. KT and Broonie will shine also.

    It does not matter that you and I think that Celtic will win at Doomdome today. It does matter that Brendan and our team share our thoughts though :)

    Gerry Bacon took their abuse, till one night he was ambushed by a mob wi guns and was shot at. He was driven out of Drumchapel that night. He told me that he was not ready to be a martyr yet. That scum UDA mob’s time will come.
