    Just checking, obviously I plan my full day (and therefore also the Mrs') around watching the 'Tic and was about to have a mild panic attack.

    Anyway, think this has toughie written all over it with the early ko and probably * conditions, so any win will do but I'd love a good performance and hopefully no injuries.

    They've been doing a bit better since Christmas. Will take any win as usual but if we start with the kind of press we did this eve we'll get more chances.

    Always a tough fixture and not the best watch from the camera in that stadium. 3pts and no injuries will do just fine!

    Tough game. These early kick offs after a long trip are usually difficult .
    Not sure how the pitch is but the last game against Hearts the pitch was cut up very bad. Considering the recent weather I suspect the pitch won’t be great which will affect us more than Ross County.
    Would take any win.

    I think it will be an unenjoyable scrap against a team that like to get stuck in or a terrible pitch in freezing conditions.

    3 points in any manner with no injuries would be a good outcome I think.

    I think it'll be more comfortable than last time, I expect County to attack more than United did.

    Schmeichel
    Ralston Scales Trusty Valle
    Bernardo
    Hatate Engels
    Yang Kyogo Maeda

    McCowan, Taylor, Idah and Kuhn (if fit) off the bench. Was twnpted to put McCowan on the wing over Yang but it'll never happen. Even if Kuhn is fit i wouldn't start him for this. 2-0 us

    They’re in great form at the moment 10 points from their last 4 games, so i expect this to be tough. 2-1 Celtic.

    I would say your right the crap weather and a bad pitch will likely make this a very tough fixture and probably a bit of an eye sore to watch. Hopefully we can grind out a win because I think this will be a tough one given the conditions.

    With them dropping points tonight I would be tempted to rotate a bit.

    Bring in Ralston, Valle, Bernardo, and if we have any other wingers or players capable of playing there, Hatate too back in the side and rest Johnston, Taylor, McGregor and Maeda.

    League is done. The priority has to be the game coming up against YB now. I’d make changes and give players who have played a lot of games a rest.

    Them dropping points will, rightly, have zero bearing on what Rodgers team is.

    They were * before dropping points to Dundee, they remain * after it. We focus on Celtic and Celtic only.
