We really can't afford to underestimate them. In the 2-0 game in January they were guilty of it, and we punished them. We definately have more than enough about us to beat them, but we have to go out and do it.

 

That is my biggest fear, we were expecting big things against them at ibrox and we got pumped 4-2. We cannot expect we are going to go out and give the orcs a pasting. We have to go out there and better their work rate, once we do that then we will beat them because we have better players.

 

I was expecting big things until I saw the team that had been put out. After that, I knew we were always going to struggle.

I hope and pray that Lennon never makes the mistake of leaving two of our best players out for a derby game again. Ledley and Forrest should have both played that day.

 

If our defence can stay strong and lenny plays the best team including Stokes we should win 2 nil handy! it will more than likely be a must win game for us if both teams keep winning till then! Mon the Hoops

 

not confident tbh but i never am just need to make sure we win our games coming up to this take it a game at a time.

 

It'll make my Christmas if we pump them!

 

Cannot wait for this game! This is the biggest game of the season, no doubt about it.

We need to be up for it 24 hours before the kick off, mentally and physically. We have the quality to outgun this mob, we need to work hard and keep it tight, and put these monkeys to the sword!

Regarding the starting 11, I don't want to change too much, I think we're on a role at the moment and chopping and changing guys might affect the momentum. We NEED to start Stokes! I'm dying to see Stokes and Hooper against the huns from the start. If that first team line up doesn't read Anthony Stokes' name, I may well become an East Fife supporter. He is a must against them!

Wanyama as well. I really think Vic will boss, bully and torment this mob. He's just too strong, too fast and too powerful for whoever they decide to play in the middle.

We need to win this, we have worked so hard to get it back to four points, let's do this and embarrass this horrible collection of people, and show how * they really are!

Come on you bhoys in green

 

* man great post, I'm way too eager way too early for it after reading that ha

 

Same here mate. And New Year, Valentines' Day and St Patrick's Day

 

Lookin forward to seein big Wanyama against these *, hopefully he gives big Girafferty a * sore one.

 

quick question i have a season ticket in lisbon lion stand in 417. i take it the manky mob are sitting there or is it the stewards/police??

 

Old Firm Late Kick-Off

Am I the only person who thinks that the 7.45pm kick off on the 28<SUP>th</SUP> of December is a bit of a mental time to have an Old Firm game? <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>

I’d imagine that thousands of fans going to the game will be off work before and afterwards, so it’s pretty much the equivalent of an Old Firm on a Saturday night. <o></o>
<o> </o>
I was at the ‘Hugh Dallas game’ which kicked off at 6pm on a bank holiday weekend – and we all know how that ended up! <o></o>
<o> </o>
Personally I can’t wait for it. If we go 1 or 2 up the place will be absolutely bouncing.<o></o>

Just hope the bhoys who’ve been in the pub since lunch time behave themselves…<o></o>

 

Old firm games at night are alot better anyway, most people are still half asleep at 12:30 games.

 

Not an issue, IMO, as it's the other lot who have the behavioural problems!

 

It's also inbetween Christmas and New Year, which means people will be off work. Going to be mental

 

I never have a pint before the games, but this time I'll probably be in the pub from 5pm then on the supporters bus at 6.45pm.

I wonder what kind of state the guys who turn up steaming at 12.30pm kick offs will be in?

The 'Hugh Dallas' game was a disgrace, but the real culprits were the SFA who sanctioned an Old Firm title decider at 6pm on a bank holiday weekend. Jeez there were guys being half carried into the ground..

 

New for me, never seen it happen before since ive actually supported Celtic properly. Ill be off to the pub on the 28th with whoever I can drag along with me

edit: Obviously mean in the league

 

Mental decision, and hopefully nothing too bad happens, but I'm looking forward to it. :icon_mrgreen: Should be an excellent game.
