Celtic v Rangers On 28th Dec

mcgeough is a great prospect but i dont think i would throw him in the deep end by starting him in an old firm game just yet. Let him get some starts in the league or the cup first.

 

Ive got a bad feeling that lenny wont play stokes even if he is fit, i think to fit brown in he'll put forrest on the left, brown on the right and sammy up top with hooper.
Hope not, he desrves to start.

 

This is a joke right? Why on earth would we play 1 up front in an old firm game??

Forster

Cha Mulgrew Wanyama Ledley

Brown Kayal Ki Forrest

Hooper Samaras

 

They will look to flood their team with hackers & expect to get off with it, as normal from Gollum.

Think they'll play 2 FB's on the left again, like they did today - to try to stop wee Forrest.

Fairly certain they'll appeal McElbows red card, which will probably be reduced to a yellow, if there's even time to hold the hearing.

Jelavic on his own up front, winning every 50/50 from the ref to gain freekicks.

Mulgrew's set pieces really have to improve, they've been * lately.

Hope Izzy can make it & no way Lenny will drop Brown, so more likely to see Brown instead of Izzy & Ledley at LB again...mistake.

Let's hunt some Orc!

 

Got to agree with you. I hope Lenny has learned and not to try and counter their tactics but to play to our strengths. Inverness, St Johnstone and ST Mirren have proved if you play good passing, quick football they will crumble. The players can go into this game confident because some of the football they have been playing has been excellent, but not to confident, although the Rankers are * and have been playing * they still carry a fair amount of luck. They will no doubt play to their strengths, sit in and play they long ball on the counter !!!!!!

 

Tell all the orcs you know
That we're going to win 9 in a row
Hopper and Stokes will give them the boke
We're going to win 9 in a row

 

whats up with stokeys ?

 

We have to play Stokes and Hooper up front. Then Forrest on the right and Sammy must play on the left.

That is all.:icon_mrgreen:

 

Yes, I agree,
And when i think about it, Rangers recent wins over us have not been achieved by skill but by a desire and will to win at all costs.
Surely with our skill if we adopt the same tactics we WILL win this game.
So looking forward to this, and what an end to the year it would be !
C`mon Celtic, you CAN do this !

 

I still have a bad feeling about this game.

 

We should definitely win this game, no doubt about it now. Not saying it's going to be too easy. But Rang*rs are playing *.

 

1-1 I reckon, always negative going into these.

I'm the exact same mate.

 

Hopefully a win though, form out the window.

 

I dont think this is a game for Izzy and Wilson to start just coming back from injury, So I think Lenny may go for

Is stokes going to be fit? If so should start adds creativity

 

Can see Forrest being dropped. Terrible today.

 

We should win it but our defence doesn't fill me with confidence.

 

To be fair, Forrest is better on the right imo.
