Tic v Dons Preamble

Lickety-split, here we go!

Five games left, three at home - every one of them a cracker.

The plot thickens as they say: a win today and Celtic leapfrog the hun to go top of the league two point clear.
(we'll just leave aside those, erm, three games in hand the blue meanies will have for the moment shall we...).

That single fact however should be enough to keep the team's focus and determination.
The bhoys will be raring to go after doing the bizz last Wednesday and, although wee Gordon might have to shuffle his pack a bit, we should have enough to get thru this one comfortably.

As usual, we would like to see an early goal, and would having a two goal cushion while having a cuppa at half time be to much to ask for ?

Aiden, jvoh, Naylor and Hartley are all carrying knocks and Skoosh is still out.
The SFA poney express has just arrived in time to say that Caldwell cannot play today.
Somebody has been sent out to look for Bobo (seems that O'Dea has beeen injured for a while?).

I fancy we will start with:

Artur
Hinkel, Balde, McManus, Wilson
Naka, Hartley, Robson, McGeady
Sammy, JVoH

Expect to see Frosty/Donati and Skippy/Killen/Hutch on at some point.

C'Mon the Celts today (and the Saints ramorra!) !!!

O`Dea has had an operation for a hernia. Hopefully not too many injuries. First half goals please. :-)

Ian Brines, dear o dear. I reckon he is the worst of the MIBS.

I am really worried aboot today. I know how the Sheep can play and I know how badly we can play after decent results.

Statosaurus say's this should be a comfortable Celtic to nil victory as usually happens. Like the cup reply should have been comfortable...

I want to see Willo start, I hope not to see any changes in the midfield. The thought of Donati starting ahead of Hartley through choice is not one worth thinking about.

Mon The Hoops

Just having a wee look at the form...

In the league the Sheep are unbeaten in their last 4 league games. One win and three draws....

We are on a two game unbeaten run as well though!!!!!!

At least Lee Miller will be looked after if Balde plays.
It`s nine weeks since Celtic won a 3pm Saturday match. Hearts at home 16/2/08. This is the last Saturday home game of the season, a win please. :-)
Come on the Bhoys!
