    Bollocks isn't it. Def our weakest area. Full backs will be targeted for sure. But it's the MF that need to stand up and be counted. Played through like ghosts last 2 games at times. If that stops, get a few more second balls, then we can get a hold on the game and play our stuff.

    Think we will probably lose as we can’t seem to play against them with any urgency, especially in these games which mean very little.

    Sorry mate, I didn't see our midfield getting played through at all. I saw hoofball and hope to win the second ball, same as diddy clubs play against us. But it was effective for them and I agree defence needs to be stronger.

    Def was a lot the hoofball used last game. Just seemed to bypass the MF a lot, leaving us exposed. Been glass half empty this week about it. But think we'll get on top of them. I think the start is key. They'll start fast. Just dont concede early and I'm sure we'll get the win.

    If there ever was a time to prove a point, it's after the last 2 games against them.

    Id start bernado before Engels for this one, like Engels but feel Bernardo offers a more physical presence in the midfield on his game

    Just think, the gimpy wee union bears are probably already meeting up somewhere to go do some graffiti unchallenged in the middle of nowhere with nobody around and kid on they're mental.

    The huns will turn up today, they always do against big clubs. But I hope we also turn up and play the way we know we can. If we do that then there will only be one winner in my eyes.

    They haven't won at ibrokes in what 6-7 games, scoring ONE goal in that time. There are no excuses, look at the teams who've gotten results there. Pressure is off, the league is officially won. Now go out there Celtic and make things right in this game!!!

    9 goals conceded, scored 1 in 6 home games is absolutely appalling.

    They'll turn up today though. They've had a long enough rest for their cup final.

    We have no excuses not to put them to the sword. Couldn't give a * if the league is won or not.

    Just praying we turn up and show a bit of desire to win this. The last two performances against them have been utter muck.

    Well overdue a good win against them.

    It would be nice to watch their cognitive dissonance go into full meltdown if as a result, we put out a weakened team due to i injuries and then come out with a solid 2-0 win or some such result like that. Then they can't shut up about how it was a dead rubber and they are due buhgillions when 69'ers do their takeover.
