Dundee v Celtic Scottish Cup Sat 7 Feb 12.30 KO (Sky sports 1)

Exciting game this Sunday. Cup wins are the barometer of a successful season. We should win this one though. We're flying now.

A win at the weekend then a win at Partick in the league on Wednesday would be excellent.

 

I would tend to agree with this but we really breezed it Sunday and dictated our own pace when the game was won in half hour..

Same team for me..
0-2..

 

Would have been seriously worried about Dundee away 4 months ago, should get through okay now. Certainly wee Griffiths deserves to keep his place, Stokes was poor at the weekend but would stick with him for this one.

 

do not understand for one minute why anybody wants griffiths out the team now, hes signed long term and is committed to the club, now is the time were he should be getting the run of games that he deserves, id go with the exact same team as sunday, barring any injuries.

 

Looking forward to this as making the trip up. Same team from Sunday for me

 

I don't care who we play, just stick the 11 best looking players on the pitch and put the ugly ones on the bench, I wanna see a sexy team beat Dundee

 

Will there be spare tickets on sale outside the ground ? If some drunkards struggle to get their transport etc and lazy hungover late sleepers miss their bus . I'm almost answering this myself ! I might just chance my arm .:smiley-laughing002:

 

just noticed this was the saturday , hate early kick offs on the saturday, would much prefer 3pm saturday, or even sunday.

 

Fucken brilliant when you're on the other side of the world pal:smiley-laughing002:

 

mines is also for selfish reasons, i play football at 10 every saturday, these kick offs are a nightmare

 

I'd like to see Guidetti back in for this. I reckon all he needs is a goal and he'll have his confidence back and be firing on all cylinders again. May be harsh on Griffiths, but we do want Guidetti to return to the form he showed at the start of his time here and the only way he's going to do that is by playing.

 

I'm with you on that one.. (but i do think the tv companies take a * liberty with football fans).

Games should be scheduled at the start of the season -- *, this event should be televised live .. what i wouldn't give to see the way this is done

Invite the tv companies, get the clubs and the SPFL guys in one big hall and show the fans how this is done... tv can have a say there and then on the times and dates and then stick to the dates

fans can plan their season ...

and i guarantee the viewing figures for this event would beat anything during the season as every fan in scotland (and further afield) would take an interest in the dates to say nothing of watching these SPFL conniving * work out who plays who when and see if travelling fans are taken into consideration

sorry for the rant .. had just intended to say i agreed with the OP lol

 

How can the tv companies set dates and ko times for cup games like this one at the start of the season ?

 

The dates can be set in advance... so can the times. That is the honest way to do it. You know, like they do with the world cup.. winner of .. v winner of.

its not difficult. And the tv can bid for a semi final etc. What they all want to do is maximise profit at expense of fans.

If these games are schedules for 3pm sunday then it should not matter who is playing.. this is victimizing fans because they follow a particular club. Its *

IF we were getting multi millions i might be willing to concede games being shuffled around but we get a pittance .. * EM

League games can be set at the beginning of the season .. tv companies can have input on days and times but why should paying fans be inconvenienced by late change of dates and times to suit tv


How many EPL games get changed at short notice? If the tv companies want to invest in a package then let them plan for the season. All this * about not allowing certain teams to play or travel to the same city is absolute bullshit.

We all know the polis just dont want to do the * jobs they are paid for. They are public servants .. who seem to think they are the ones who make the rules. Football needs an overhaul.. fans need to start taking control of the running of the game.

So * of with those running our game picking up VERY HIGH salary and doing * all. can't even enforce their own rules, time their meetings were live streamed to let the fans see what we are paying for. No accountability by these *.

have no idea why it bothers me so much (i dont even live in Scotland) but it saddens and angers me when i see total incompetence rewarded by big money and not performance related.

 

I don't know about this mate, obviously I want Guidetti scoring again but I thought we were, to a man, impressive against an admittedly awful sevco team. I always think if your players perform, they retain their place (unless a significant tactical change is required) so for me, keep Griffiths in and bring on Guidetti at about 60mins.

 

Would be mad to drop Griffiths

 

I would start the exact same team that playee agianst rangers. Maybe give Johansen a rest.

 

I doubt he needs a rest, he had over a week of no game time before the Huns, after his sore one against Motherwell. Also was rested on our gran canaria trip in January..

 

Gordon

Lustig Denayer Van Dijk Izaguirre

Brown Bitton

Commons Johansen Stokes

Griffiths​

No need to be changing the team. Based on individual performance from Sunday, then the only one who you could argue about dropping is Stokes perhaps. I would go with the same team personally though.

 

Exactly, big games coming up and a settled in form side for inter is a no brainer ..
