    I'd go with this team too. Will Stokes be fit?

    At some point we should introduce Stokes (if fit) to give us more in attack. There's also the possibility of Wanyama going to CB, Mulgrew to LB and Ledley to CM. If Matthews is fit, stick him in instead of Cha. I wondered whether it would be better to have Wilson or Rogne at CB but I think Rogne's the better option given that he has OF experience, plus Wilson's just come back from a long term injury.
    I personally don't buy into the old adage that form goes out of the window in these games. Freak results happen which you wouldn't expect (e.g. the 2-0 game in January) but I think the same is true of any other fixture, it just so happens that this one is so big and generally so difficult to predict. I'm going 2-0 to the Bhoys.

    i think we should play stokes from the start, get lenny and the coaching team to psyche him up that he has a point to prove against these *

    Forget the fact that we have better players than them in most positions,we must show a will and desire to win which is absolutely crucial more than anything else.If we can show that ,then we should beat them.
    Dont give afuck how bad they are,these games are different.The formbook goes out the window.We know they will shut up shop and hit on the break,our defence has to concentrate for the full 90.hopefully with Forrest and Sammy on the wings we can open them up like a tin of sardines

    I like this team, I would usully prefer James on the wing but I think we need Brown for that bit of bite.

    Izzy won't start this, with him not getting any game time against Killie, lenny is not going to start him against the Huns.

    I think the formation we have been playing recently a sort of 4-3-1-2, with forrest in behind sammy and hooper. With Ki, Kayal, Brown in midfield. Wanyama at CB and Ledley at left back. Not what i would like to see but thats the formation i can see lenny playing.

    I know they are on the backfoot right now..but this will be a tight 1-0 to us. Hope I'm wrong. But old firm games fire up both sides so it's often a level playing field. Hope our players keep level headed and treat there oponnents as a real threat and not a written-off Rangers side. (Think back to CIS cup final)

    I'm convinced we're going to thrash them. A kind of 6-2 type. This is by far the worst Rangers team ever.

    Forster
    Matty Victor Mulgrew Izzy
    Kayal Ki-Sung
    Forrest Ledley Sammy
    Hooper

    that would be my lineup. Lenny's will look like this probably but:

    Forster
    ChaDR Victor Mulgrew Ledley
    Kayal Brown
    Forrest Ki-Sung Sammy
    Hooper​

    They'll set up to contain us so we ain't gonna thrash them, they will be fired up for it after losing at getting two men sent off at the weekend - so lennon will probably go with a more physical team for us

    Foster

    matthews * Wanyama Rogne Mulgrew
    brown kayal ledley
    forrest samaras
    Hooper

    * - if fit.
