    Looking at our remaining fixtures until the split and personally I couldnt have wished for better. Hibs, Hamilton, St Johnstone, St Mireren and ICT. I am not taking anyhting for granted but if we keep up our current form I believe we can go into the split with a 100% record. Once the split has been made we know we have Hearts and Rangers away so going into those games on top form is absolutely vital! The games are also an opportunity to for Hooper and Stokes to work towards the 20 goal mark. So lets Rangers drop points on the way and we go in with an advantage.

    Can we do it? And is it vital that we do?

    imo tomorrows game will be very important. we need to bounce back from the off day we had on sunday.

    if we dominate and win tomorrows game our teams confidence will return, while the huns will probably realize that it will be almost impossible to stop our march to the title.

    ICT away is the only tricky fixture left before the split. We have to try for maximum points before the split.

    agreed. a win would give us a massive confidence boost. it would also remind the rest of scotland that we are the best team in the league.

    I was looking at the fixtures aswell and was thinking the same thing. I'm taking nothing for granted tho, as i expected us to pump Mothewell.

    The two games in hand are st mirren and st johnstone, but also Aberdeen away and Dundee utd away. Because of the two games postponed due to the two games in the cups against Celtic.

    We've no excuse not to win them all, so your right.

    But we cannot afford to turn up like we did on Sunday again.

    I actually think that Sunday's result & subsequent bollocking from the Manager, will help our title surge.

    Much better to get beaten & end our long unbeaten run NOW, when we have the opportunity to learn from it & rectify it.

    As the manager said, the players & fans to an extent - believed the hype. We were playing so well, we thought we could just turn up & collect 3 points.

    Having Rangers at home in the Cup, is the perfect chance to revert to our best form... hopefully.

    As Sundays joke of a performance showed looking ahead and taking things for granted is not a good idea. Hopefully our players learned their lesson about doing that on Sunday. Sunday has basically left things all up for grabs again and I really think tomorrow night is crucial in the league even though it is a cup game. In the sense that whichever side comes out on top will have real confidence and momentum going forward.

    Of course we can do it. There's no point calling yourself a Celtic supporter if you don't believe we can do it. We've beaten them at Ibrox already and I'm confident we can and will do it again. We have nothing to fear going there now. Before the team had gelled, I would have said otherwise, but it has become apparent that we have too strong a team for them and are the favourites to win the upcoming derbies.
