Huns v Celtic 2nd Jan 12.30pm Sky Sports

Our only worry is Beaton and VAR, I don’t think for a minute in a fair fight they would beat us if anything it will be the ref or one of our players doing something mental like getting red carded

we take the fight to them early, press them back, we win this, it just depends how quickly we can get on top of them if we score early it could be a rout if not then I’d be happy with a 1-0 own goal off Tavin-snear

 

That auld * Keevins once again getting on his bandwagon about "conspiracy theorists" Celtic fans in an article today:-

"The referee will be working at a match being shown live on television by a satellite company using more cameras than might be thought feasible for a football match and overseen by VAR, the mechanism which is supposed to guarantee the avoidance of doubt regarding contentious issues. VAR is, however, believed by some to be in place with the implicit purpose of denying Celtic natural justice.

Taking into account the fact Celtic are in pole position while going for an 11th title win in 12 years – and repeating the fact they have dropped just nine points in a calendar year – the evidence to support the case for institutional bias would have to be thought flimsy at best"
However, he then goes on to say:-
"Just look at the exceptional number of penalties awarded since its implementation and the flurry of sometimes inexplicable red cards it has so far produced."
Can the auld * not take a step back and look at the statistics and see that there have been no penalties or red cards dished out to the huns and that Celtic have been the team with the most dubious or, as he puts it, inexplicable decisions awarded against them?
Can he not recall Beaton's disgraceful display at ipox when he allowed wee fat * to physically assault our players with impunity?
No, he is * scared to acknowledge the truth - that the game in this country is corrupt and that Celtic have won those titles despite the cheating.

 

With death!

 

Off topic but I Wish this game was on today instead of tomorrow like it used to be years ago. Hate waiting about on it after NYE plus NYD is a great day for a big * up for the game instead of the day after

 

I know it's an old adage on football.

But it seems more pertinent now for Celtic, because the reality is, we now have to continuously play to such a level we can negate the abhorrent officiating in this country.

We aren't afforded the same luxury as the huns where they can slug through games knowing that 80% of the time they will get incredibly favourable, game changing decisions from the ref.

We have to play to level that makes refs redundant on a consistent level, more so then any other club in this league. As seen in previous games already where we have won in spite of some just pure horrendous decisions from VAR and the refs.

The only way these * get anything against us will be because 1. We are for whatever reason, playing * and 2. The Refs.

Without both of those two things happening together they will get nothing, Ange can control 1 of those, so I'm confident that despite some dodgy calls and no doubt a red for us in the second half for a nothing event, we still win the game.

 

Their tactics will be to bully us and kick us off the ball. If we stand up to that and dont allow them to disrupt our play we have by far the better players that can play the type of football that they simply arent capable of. They know they cant handle us if we are allowed to play, get ready for some typical dirty hun * tactics.

Battle fever well and truly on, just get today over with please and send these mutants on

 

That old * been completely at it aw season, a guy phoned clyde a few weeks ago complaining about refefees and he asked him if he was a Celtic fan and the guy had to tell he actually supported St mirren. You just have to look at his comments everytime we go a goal behind and questions weather we can turn it round despite doing it time and time again? Hes had a chip on his soldiers since we won the league due to being one of many pundits who predicted Ange to fail and instead have made themselves look like idiots since.

 

You've got battle fever on?

 

What's that? A slip?

 

Like others i’m only concerned about the officiating

Our manager and squad blow theirs out the water

 

Killed by Death!!!

 

"Interesting" stat re our win record with Beathun in charge.......

 

Bought a day pass this morning for NOW TV thinking the game was today lol, new years derby should be on new years day

 

I think we might see Hatate RB again

 

Really disappointed if that happens.

We have two fit ones. No reason for Hatate to play out of position again.

 

They will throw the kitchen sink at us in the first 20 minutes,if we can ride the storm we should be able to grind them down and go on and win but that first 20 mins will be crucial if they score the place will be rocking and they will get some believe,keep them out and panic will set in.

 

Banned from having Tifo in the ground tomorrow or whatever the * it is the they try to do...
