    ye the neutral venue really makes it a little easier....would not fancy going up there for a 1 off tie tbh, if we get passed DU.

    Few scares along the way I think...we aint playing at our best like we have over the last 2 months

    If only life, never mind football, was this easy.

    This past week has proven 1 thing, taking things for granted as you have there is naïve beyond belief.

    A Treble is within our grasp but nothing, at all, is won yet.

    The league isn't all but one though. Yesterday's replay means the Dundee game in hand is moved again.

    Aberdeen, the juggernaut, could be top by the time we play in the SPL again. They most likely will.

    We said if they kept pace by march, way back in January, we have a title race on our hands. Well we do!!

    Think we should win the treble, but games can be won and lost by very slim margins, and I can see us losing the League Cup final.

    A don't think Mark was being naive at all or taking things for granted for that matter. The OP asked what we all think we'll win this season and the lad said the treble then gave his reasons why. Am sure he knows it won't be a walk in the park but none the less he still thinks we'll win the treble and I agree.

    The Treble should be done now. Playing at Tannadice yesterday was the one huge hurdle left to tackle. Barring another hapless refereeing display Celtic should comfortably see off United in the replay and I don't think there is any team left in the Scottish Cup capable of competing with them at Hampden.

    The treble is ours to lose, but that doesn't mean we won't lose it. The league is as good as won. We're unlikely to lose the League Cup. The Scottish Cup, I'm not so sure. More opportunities for things to go wrong and heavier consequences when they do.

    Really hoping for the treble. And believe this team is capable.
    But as others have mentioned, its not always down to us on the pitch.
    If we get by dundee united in the cups, its plain sailing.



    Although, if we dont get the treble, I hope a lot of fans who had their doubts/waiting for a slip up, dont hound the team for it. Its been a great season so far with lots of progression. Its all positives now.

    Apparently we are already 1 down and will be 2 down by the weekend.

    Neither are true and both suggestions are far too simplistic. If we win the League Cup at the weekend (not a given) we will have won a single trophy. There will still be 2 to play for and play for it we will have to.

    The double, I think all the treble talk will come back to haunt us but hopefully not. There's a reason why the treble hardly ever gets won.

    I wouldn't say its hardly ever won, since it became possible to win a treble its been managed 10 times, so 1 in 6 or 7 seasons on average a team manages it.

    that figure doesn't tell the whole story either, between 93 and 2003 it was managed 4 times, and another 4 times between 67 and 78.

    That's not to say I think a treble should be expected, but given the cirumstances it would be a bit disapointing to have not managed a treble in the last 3 seasons

    How many Celtic managers have won a domestic Treble?

    We're still on for the treble definitely. The league will be wrapped up. We ought to win the League Cup this weekend.

    Then we should put them out of the Scottish Cup straight after.

    Then from then on in, we can focus on the league and rack up the wins then we'll only have two more games in the Scottish Cup to win.

    Inverness, Hibs and Falkirk can be beaten easily.

    It's ours to win!

    Jock Stein won it twice and Martin O'Neill once.
