    Every game is massive now. Important things are to start fast and maintain a tempo. Scottish teams can't hold on for 90 minutes unless you relent and let them rest.

    Aside from that we need to avoid any daft bookings/red cards.

    Those would be my key messages going out there tonight.

    More nervous about this game as I reckon their lot will be better equipped to surrending possession and sitting deep to try and choke the game out.

    If however we can do what we did in the last two games and steamroller these * even to a 2-0 lead at ht then we win this no bother about 4-1.

    But honestly expect this....I don't know why....to be a cagey 1-0

    There's absolutely no chance Hibs will take anything tonight. I watched their cup game the other week and they were worse than bad. Their their main striker is also way off it at the moment and the hun loving ref tonight has a habit of sending off big Porteous for just coming near a hun . We just need to keep winning all our own games and not depend on favors from other teams

    Its always the we * games lately you expect them to win they loose anyway. Hibs won't collapse like hearts and they have enough chances to score a good few before the collapse so never say never.

    All of a sudden just stared bricking it.

    Imagining horrific scenarios where Broony plays a blinder as we drop points, livid we never offered him another extension.

    Good ol fashioned title race anxiety.

    I admire your optimism... but I've been here many times before with Celtic over the decades, so whilst I'm going to enjoy riding this particular wave, I'm going to remain a little more guarded.

    No doubt we're playing some scintillating fitba the now though - that first half against the Zombies was the best I'd seen us in years.

    Every game just now seems to be more important than the last. This is going to be tough tonight, Sheep will not want to be steamrolled at their own ground so will sit in deep and protect a 0-0. But it should be all about us, keep performing the way we have been we should come out winners. After the hard work of getting to the Top slot we dont want any slipups that give the Huns a bit of momentum and go back on top. COYBIG

    Aberdeen are ragged…. Negative GD, fighting to make the cut… we should be well up by half time… Ange won’t let up or let the players let up.

    So hopefully 3 points bagged.

    Am not usually one to get carried away myself tbh, the difference this time though is all down to Ange and his mentality. He really is a top level manager and has clearly got the players buying into that same mindset.

    For example, after we skelped the huns there were some who maybe thought the next game we may be a bit flat. As we seen on Sunday, that was far from the case. If anything we were even more determined and impressive.

    Also the way we have, pretty much all season, been ravaged by injury, playing tough games with a weak squad yet still getting results. I think the way we have come back from the break with a stronger squad and more time playing the system, alongside the ever improving squad harmony, there is only one way we are heading.

    'It's not just maintaining levels, but always improving'. No one in Scotland is getting anywhere near us for the foreseeable.

    I agree with you I just do not see Hibernian getting anything done tonight. I think they will put up a better showing then the diets did at the weekend although that is not exactly a high bar. But even if they play really well they just have no threat up front. It is just amazing how far Nisbeth has fallen away. As you rightly say we need to be focused in our own performance tonight in what will be another really tough game.
