[Official TC Thread] Celtic v hun scum, Sky Sports Crow 23rd September, 12:00.

id really like to see ralston play. think he could handle it easily.

imagine seeing this, but with miller in place of neymar...

 

I sort of can. I know a man who's going to it, been to Ibrox 5 or 6 times and only win once against DUTD in 98 and been to 5 finals against oldco and lost everyone

 

I wouldn't mind knowing price for 7-1 Sinclair hattrick

 

Odds not out yet but a sinky hattrick @ 80/1 Celtic 7-1 @ 450/1
Let's not get carried away lads. A 1 nil is is as important as a 5/6/7 goal win. Just not as enjoyable.

 

I know to well about getting carried away however, I always do 7-1 for the craic. Even used to do it when we played oldco. Just a euro or two. Now it's newco, it's up to tenners and scores I put on it. That last game could have been the one only for a few sitters missed. I honestly think it'll happen one day

 

I think us on -1 is a pretty safe bet and the odds are decent on it.

 

Craig Thompson ref on Saturday
https://videocelts.com/2017/09/blogs/latest-news/craig-thomson-to-referee-glasgow-derby/

 

Going to have to win by about 8 goals then, just to negate his influence. 7 games and 7 red cards so far this season, going to be a cracking Christmas night out for the refs this year.

 

We'll be fine. Thomson once gave us a pen that never was at Ibrox when Sammy missed it, so I wouldn't say he's biased - just a terrible referee.

Would be much more concerned if Collum was the ref.

 

This one?

Definite penalty.

 

Time for him to put the club first and give his ticket away then

 

Theyv scored against us in a few games last season at home so I will give them the benefit of the doubt and say 4-1 to us

 

I'd say it's more bracing for impact tbh. Davis is clumsy, hasn't touched the ball and has impeded Stokes. Clear penalty to me.

 

Tbf I wouldn't say Stokes jumped into him, Stokes was on the run and put the ball past him but his path was blocked, he never deliberatly altered his run to jump into Davis he was just there.

It was clumsy from Davis, as he never got the ball even though he didn't try to get the ball but you could argue he never went for the ball as he knew he was blocking Stokes anyway.

One of those ones that are 50/50.

 

Annoyingly I'm looking forward to this.

I feel like with a 3-5-2 and getting players like Dembele and boyata back in time for this could see us really hammer this team in our current form.

Sinclair, dembele, thumb and Roberts they won't be able to handle that and that's without considering the influence Rogic would have if he's playing or the ball retention and passing on ntcham.

I reckon they may even score first, but I can see us doing another 5-1

 

I maybe wouldn't go quite that far, but almost. It's probably a wee bit more exciting than an average SPL game to be 100% honest; but nothing like a European game or when we used to play Rangers.

Maybe on a par with Aberdeen or Hearts TBH.

 

Any true Celtic Man who says that isnt a Pen is off his head!!

 

I just want to annihilate them again,so they can be placed under the ground again.....Excited? nah......just want it over with and onto Anderlecht.....thats the excitement.

As for the famous saying of the refs dont matter...Id like to agree,however when we are disallowed goals and have 2 plus men sent off......then its hard to agree with the statement.

Ive always stated......whoever beats us in the SPFL....it will be 100% down to a ref,not that team being better on the day.

And its thompson....So im even more weary now....id actually take gollum over thompson
