    Just want to get this out there before today's game. Whether or not you think we have a team of bottlers today's game shoudn't changer your mind whatever the result. While it will be * tremendous to do it today the last OF game was a much bigger game than todays because at that time we were looking to go top of the leauge after being fifteen points ahead only a couple of months previously. Today's game in the grand scheme of things can only tie up a title we are going to win anyway (although it might feel like we've won the Champions League by winning it there).

    May seem like a strange thing to be posting on the morning of an OF game but want it out there before kick off - personally I don't think we have a team of bottlers but either way we will be champions because we deserve to be.

    i believe lenny will be giving an ANY GIVEN SUNDAY type like speech before this game and I hope it does the trick.

    it would mean so much to win the title at ibrox, all those huns cant blame the -10 points rule(even though it doesnt make sense they all mention it) and we played them off the park in their own backyard and brought the title back to paradise.

    Any Given Sunday is a great movie :50:

    Normally I would say there's a danger we could slip up, after all "form goes out the window" etc. But the huns are absolutely pish, like proper shocking. We should beat them easily.

    Saying that I think we'll win 1-0 :56:

    The "team of bottlers" theory is a complete myth, made up the filth to make themselves feel better about their own pile of steaming, stinking *.

    We never bottled it in December to go top of the league. We never bottled it in the final last May to win the Scottish Cup. We never bottled it in the Europa League, despite being drawn in what could be described as a Champions League group. 3-1 against Rennes, 1-1 in Udinese, 1-1 in Rennes and should have won 1-0 against Udinese at Paradise, if it wasn't for the ref giving a penalty that never was.

    We are not a team of bottlers. Every team has good days and bad days and behind every significant defeat Lenny's team have endured so far, there has usually been a number of valid reasons (not excuses) behind them. Lennon is still a young and relatively inexperienced manager and doesn't always get his team selection correct, for a start.

    Having said all of this, we have no excuses if we don't win today. A bad team selection will not cut it, as Lennon has been to Ibrokes and won in the past. He knows what it takes to beat them there, both as a player and a manager.

    I can tell you right now that if Kelvin Wilson plays, we will lose or draw. He is a liability and has proved it more than once this season. Our central defence must consist of Rogne and Mulgrew, with Ledley at left back. I can tell you all of this and I'm not qualified to manage any club, let alone Celtic.

    Neil must get everything absolutely, 110% spot on to write his name into the record books, along with every member of the current squad. The league title has not been won at the home of the enemy since 1967 and they deserve to know what it feels like again, after 1999.

    * do this, Celtic. I've never wanted to win more in my life, apart from Seville :shamrock:

    No matter what has happened to them, its pure and utter Karma this situation has arrived. They have cheated and stolen title after title by financial doping. But the issue is what go's around eventually comes around.

    Today should matter very little to anyone else other than Celtic fans, as this will be pure revenge for what we have had to sit back and watch for the past decade.

    I am sure Lennon will not need to say much, most of the players will have watched the news, seen the papers and everything else. They should automatically know what is required and I believe a good number of them will.

    Winning this league medal is why they are here, and winning it at Ibroxs is a once in a lifetime chance. People might not care about the SPL but people do care about the old firm, across the globe and this will be the one chance to prove to the world what it means to play for Celtic, and for us fans. To support them.

    I hope to * that not only a convincing victory takes place today, but it is utterly degrading for them, and their fans.

    Good luck to day lads, Enjoy it wherever your watching!

    This,to me IS our biggest game of the season,no doubt about it.

    Give me the win tomorrow over any Scottish Cup Final.

    I want the Huns to be hurting that we won it in their shithole,let them see what a real Party is like.

    I honestly can not put into words how much i want this win at Ibrox,this fixture has got me through the week with a bit of a feel good factor.

    Health issues at home have hit me this week,then the result from Killie today gave me a lift,in pure hope that i will witness us win the Title at Ibrox.

    Please,please,please Celtic,go out there and play to the best of your ability,enjoy the day,be calm and we will be winners.

    I want this win badly,as do thousands of others.

    for those who don't think Lenny's team has the bottle...

    Huns 0-2 Celtic
    Celtic 3-0 Huns
    Celtic 1-0 Huns
    Celtic 3-0 Motherwell
    Celtic 1-0 Huns

    And the 26 game unbeaten domestic run we were on.

    We will * do this tomorrow, no mercy Celtic!!!!

    Barring Aberdeen, our away form has been brilliant of late. Tbf to the sheep, they were on the best run they have been on in approx 20 years. Even though I'd take a scrappy 1 goal victory, I want to absolutely humiliate them. At least a 3 goal victory, preferably 4. Will it happen? Probably not but I hope Lenny sends the bhoys out reminding them of that day in '99 except this time we wont need the help of a cheating hun * ref to see us destroy them.

    Being realistic, they still have some decent to good players by SPL standards in McGregor, Davis and Bocanegra. This will also be their chance to give the hun hoardes something to take their minds off their current plight but if we get an early goal (or 2) then it could be one of the darkest days in their horrible history.

    If we win today, we're not bottlers
    if we lose - we are

    Simple as that.

    We're gonna win the title anyway but it would be extra special to clinch it in their back yard :shamrock:

    To be fair to Caz,i can understand that quote.


    This is * massive,the only reason we can not win this game is if we do not perform.

    Not going to call us bottlers,but i understand some peoples thinking.

    This here is exactly what i'm worried about. Give them an inch they will take a mile. Could you imagine that happening if the roles were reversed? No chance.

    The bottle talk from that lot is probably one of the only things that annoys me from thier masses, most other stuff I ignore and laugh off.

    Be under no illusions, that's where it stems from, and it's a lot of *, we have won many ,many big games not only in our history but also under wee Lenny thus far.

    Cant win them all, doesn't mean we bottle it if we lose, we've went on one of the best consecutive runs in history to claw back a 15 point deficit to be 11 (+10 admin) in front.

    Shows plenty of bottle to me.

    At 15 points behind everyone thought the league was over and with the pressure off we went on a fantastic run, now we're at the business end as in last weeks cup final and that first half performance i've just watched the bottles crashed just as it did in inverness, and hampden v them last year.

    Come the big games too often too many players just dont show up, so either they have no bottle, or are a very average side flattering to deceve.
