    How many of our defeats at home have been domestically? 1?

    Our next 4 home games are St Johnstone, Killie, Ross County and Dundee Utd. That has to be 12 points regardless of form.

    Our upcoming League fixtures are:

    • Hibs away
    • St.Johnstone home
    • Killie home
    • Livi away
    • Ross County home
    • Hamilton away
    • Dundee Utd home
    • Scum away
    • Hibs home
    • Livi home
    • St.Mirren away
    • Hamilton home
    • Killie away
    • Motherwell home
    • St.Johnstone away
    • Aberdeen home
    So it's 9 out of 15 at home, after Hibs.

    Do you know if that factors in our 2 games in hand which I believe are both at home? Haven't seen anything around rescheduled dates.

    It's pretty annoying not being able to check our actual fixtures easily

    The official club website thinks we are playing Livingston rather than a Cup Final in December

    What chance we got man. * hour.

    Just noticed that. Really should be updated as soon as a fixture changes.
    I don't know unfortunately.

    Not with Bain as No 1
    Not with Duffy at center half
    Not with CMcG and Brown starting together.

    I think they are ahead (possibly narrowly, depending on the game in hand), because the team they have been playing is simply better than the team we have been playing. I think results both domestically and in Europe back that up.

    As long as we win the games in hand and keep the gap narrow, I'm not too worried. It's unlikely this combination of them having their strongest team available and us constantly missing key players can continue all season. Once we can play even 80- 90% of our strongest team, we will go on a run. Once they pick up an injury or two (which is bound to happen at some point), they will drop points.

    The keys are that we mustn't fall too far behind (and that includes winning those games in hand) and we need to win at least 2 of the next 3 league games against them and try not to lose the other.

    All in the balance, but still all to play for.

    If we sort out the defence we win it . 11 already in 12 games compared with 19 in 30 games we know where the problem lies so fix it

    I'm sure the Scottish guys will carry the feel good factor on into the rest of the team. The desire and determination the Scotland team showed is the attitude we need in Celtic. In fact, I'd like to see Mcgeagor made captain. I'd like to see more of Turnbull, and NCham playing Brown's role. We are missing James Forrest and Julien. We need them back. The rest of the team we have the quality to turn Glasgow into a sea of Green and White celebrations. The Celtic players will want to feel how Scotland is feeling come May. Scarves, banners, Flags, street parties.

    The dark alternative reality is unspeakable.

    The way it’s going, we’ll be finishing well behind the huns. Double figures.

    I think for whatever the reason it’s gone wrong under Lenny. Think in the main he has been a good Celtic manager but I think only a change of manager will deliver the league. Look at the players we have, we should win this league reasonably easily.

    It's over..

    Delusional to think otherwise..

    They're in a position where they're likely to win it with ease and qualify from their Europa group with 2 game's to spare..

    We're 2 wins in 7 and out of our Europa group inside 3 game's after getting pumped by Ferencvaros in the champions league qualifiers and then getting hammered at home again by a sparta Prague youth side..

    Another game where we've conceded a couple of goals domestically..

    We're a shambles and we've left it far too late. It's done..
