[Official TC Thread] Celtic vs The Rangers, Scottish Cup Semi Final April 17th, 12pm SKY SPORTS 2

Sounds good to me the 4-0 anyway been fine untill 2mins ago i just got this fear of defeat * me it's horrible

 

As long as we convert our chances unlike many games this season then we should be okay.

If Armstrong starts this game i will * lose it.

 

so will I, he should be nowhere near the team.

He better play roberts.

 

Armstrong shouldn't even be on bench ffs. Been comfortably out worst player this season, imo.

 

Its going to be a very interesting game on sunday. Sevco have improved from last season but really we should have far to much for them- the team i would go with:

Gordon

Lustig
Boyata
Mulgrew
Tierney

Brown
Bitton
Johansen

Roberts
CKR
Griffiths

4-3-3 match up with them and take them apart.

 

Stuart won't start. We have a habit of getting our players who are not going to play talk about the game their not playing in. :smiley-laughing002:

Got myself a ticket but very few of my mates managed to get one and we're all in different seats . Still, looking forward to watching us shut them up.

I predicted 4-0 to the good guys and I'll stick with that.

See a lot of people wanting Commons to start, must be taking the *, he's not match fit and has done nothing to deserve to start before Roberts and/or Rogic.

 

I felt that way last year, and I feel it even worse now; they aren't a better team, but our performances have been a bit suspect as of late. Still, if a game against Rangers doesn't get the team fired up, eff knows what will.

It's like the old version of Championship Manager: stastically, you ought to win and win well, but there's always that tiny percent chance of an upset. And you can't just hit the asterisk key and start again.:smiley-laughing002:

 

No chance, he's only had a few sub appearances recently. They just sent him for the interview since he talks well and is a handsome *

 

That's bullshit if true. Wee James Forrest is out best speaker !

 

What's the latest on Erik

 

we should play mackaystevens as the fake rangers will be too crap to deal with his skills

 

Forrester out for them with a hairline fracture of his leg.

Foderingham
Tavernier Kiernan Wilson Wallace
Ball Halliday
Law/Shiels Holt McKay
Miller
​

Will probably be their team now :smiley-laughing002:

 

What's this sorcery you speak of?! :smiley-laughing002:

 

Disgrace.

This sub-par playing field suits the huns more as well.

 

Ronny said yesterday he should be ok

 

See for me, I look at their probable team and don't see anything in particular we should worry about. Tavernier is decent but again, against poorer teams and teams that don't attack them. Play so high against us and they are in bother. I was a bit nervous but when you look man for man, it's no contest. And rest assured we will be fired up. We play at 70% and we will still do them. 3-0 to the good guys.

 

Aye, they're garbage, looking at their team they are unlikely to score against us, they don't have anyone that good from set peices and their attacking players aren't even as good as Hearts or Aberdeens, Motherwell probably have as good an attacking players as McKay, Holt, Shiels/Zelalem/Law/Clark and Miller in Ainsworth, Johnson, Moult and McDonald.

If we play well we will probably win comfortably maybe 2-0 again same as last year without coming under much pressure.

 

Am I out of mind? Well, let's see..............

Let's start with two basic questions.

Is the world a better place without Rangers? Would the world be a better place without Sevco?? For me, the answers are yes and yes.

So, that being the case, why would I ever want us to play Sevco? My preferred scenario is for that club to * off and die. PERMANENTLY. No zombie tribute acts. No comebacks. Gone. No more. Ibrox is a Tesco. Forever.

Another thing..........when the good ship Rangers finally hit the rocks in 2012, why were we all singing 'We're having a party when Rangers die' if we all really wanted to have the rivalry back again one day? That makes no sense to me. You either want that club dead or you don't. The only conclusion I can draw is that a helluva lot of Celtic fans didn't really want Rangers to die, they just wanted them to be severely and permanently humiliated. Which they have been. That's fine. Personally I was hoping for something more. I wanted them wiped off the footballing map for good.

Don't get me wrong, I can understand why some people are getting hyper about this game. The hatred between our fans and their fans makes this game different. I get that. I feel that part of it myself. But there are plenty of Tims out there who want these * back because of the competition they bring. Well I don't. The added competition is simply not worth all the other bigotry and bullshit that comes along with them.

Them being out of the top league for the past four years has given me some time to reflect on the whole us v them experience. I personally have come to realise I can do without it. Being called a paedophile and listening to anti-Catholic/anti-Irish bigotry for 90mins is not my idea of fun. I also do not like the feelings it raises inside me. It makes me * despise them. Really, really despise them. It's not good to feel that way about anyone or anything. But that is how listening to the poisonous garbage that bunch of troglodytes sing makes me feel.

So yes, I do wish this game was not happening.

Look, I know Efe's faults and I know he's not a world beater. I just really don't rate Dedryck Boyata, that's all. There's always players in the squad that you will personally overrate and others you probably underrate. Maybe I'm being overly harsh on Boyata but my opinion of him at this moment time is that he's poor. Certainly no better than Ambrose. I hope the guy improves and changes my opinion of him but that's where I am at present with him.

 

The only attacking threat they pose looking at there line up is the full backs, if we cant beat them we ought to * chuck it, feeling more confident the closer it gets
