    Few indoor bounce games would be good.

    If they really need to go away for a break then it should be to a country that has the best Covid regulations in place and, even then, ensure that the full squad adhere to strict Covid regulations within their training facility and perhaps just play some bounce games and practice some set plays etc.

    Definitely not going to Dubai this time. Think the plan is somewhere in Spain, possibly one of the islands.

    Wherever they go to train, focus on actually hitting shots towards the goal, and Abada should be solely practicing crossing the ball.

    Australia. Celtic has massive support over here. We could play some of the A-League teams. Great crowds, devoted support. It would really set us up for the run home to becoming champions.

    People moan when just Rogic flies to and from Australia.

    Can you imagine the epic meltdown if the entire squad went mid-season?

    If we go undefeated, and pump that mob in January and go top of the league they can go party in Thailand with 10 ladyboys each for all I care.

    We won't loose so don't need to think of any other scenario.

    If we had any sense, we would be a bit more humble about it this year and NOT go abroad.

    Perhaps a trip down to Wales or southern England, bounce games and training at a top end facility (maybe encourage the board to improve ours) and come back refreshed and ready to go.
    We have a long run of games coming over the next month and a bit, the rest would be most welcome, rather than long haul flights.

    At worst Spain or Portugal for a training camp no need to be flying half way, or further, round the world.
