Hamilton Accies v Celtic Wed 12th Jan

Hamilton Accies v Celtic, New Douglas Park.
Wednesday 12th January 2011'
Kick off 7:45pm

I think Lenny will make a few changes for this one & rest a few players & bring in some players that are needing game time, just with having Hibs on the Saturday & a few days after the Berwick game.

I'm with Gordon Strachan, I hope Sammy is fit for this one, because he is the only striker that can hold the ball up for us, I know a few fans dont rate Sammy, Ive always liked him, but I think he is the only striker we have that can play that lone striker role & with Hooper & Murphy out, we can't really afford to lose another striker.

26.Forster​

12.Wilson 25.Rogne 5.Majstorovic 3.Izaguirre​

14.McGinn 33.Kayal 17.Crosas 16.Ledley​

8.Brown(c)​

9.Samaras​

Subs:
24.Zaluska(GK), 4.Juarez, 7.Ljungberg, 10.Stokes,
20.McCourt, 31.Towell & 49.Forrest.​

I think maybe Forrest & McCourt need a rest & I know Ledley isn't a natural winger, so even if he does come in-field, you know that Izaguirre will still run up & down that left flank all day so we are sorted there. I would like to see Juarez come in, but I doubt that Lenny will give him a shot, the reason I think Crosas will get a shot is simply for the fact that Crosas has said in the media he wants a game & I think this would be a perfect one to bring him in, I may be wrong but I can see Crosas starting this one, I just hope Sammy is fit for it & most of all just hope its 3 points for the Hoops at the end of it..

 

think this will be tough. we seem to always slip up in midweek games. that said, if we win it will be even better for the belief and mentality of the team because they will have put the fact that we struggle in midweek games to bed.

i'll go 3-1 celtic.

 

i know this game was postponed and was meant to be on espn is it on the telly for this re arrangement cheers

Id give mccourt a rest, give ljungberg another 60 mins, then bring brown on.

 

Oh ye so it is, They said it today didnt they? Sky Sports 4. So what the * is on ESPN on Wednesday then? Cos there is a game on ESPN on Wednesday, doesn't say what game tho hmm... I just thought it was us.

 

I'm with the OP, Crosas deserves a game, he played well today and should be considered.

will hooper be back for this game?

hail hail

 

Im sure I read that he wouldnt be back in time for the Hamilton & Hibs games cos its a bit to soon, but maybe be fit for the Aberdeen game on the 22nd. Just hoping that Sammy is fit for this one or that is us just down to Stokes for choice of strikers, unless Erik Huseklepp is signed in time for the Accies game?? Hmm...

 

aww thats too bad, the sooner he is back the better

 

Anyone else going? Diddy stand?

Hopefully get a good win to keep the pressure on the Huns.

-----------------samaras/stokes--------------------

4-5-1 / 4-3-3 formation. crosas deserves a game, i think juarez should play ahead of wilson. samaras up front, stokes if hes not fit. ljungberg should start with paddy coming on later as he works better as an impact sub when the opposition are tired. brown comes in after his goal.

3-0 celtic

 

Can't see Crosas playing as much as I'd like to, hope Sammy is fit cos Stokes has been dire recently, hopefully a good win going into the Hibs game, I think it will be this:

26.Forster

12.Wilson 5.Majstorovic 25.Rogne 3.Izaguirre

16.Ledley 33.Kayal

8.Brown(c)

49.Forrest----------------------20.McCourt

​

Subs
24.Zaluska
4.Juarez
7.Ljunberg
10.Stokes
14.McGinn
17.Crosas
31.Towell


Stokes to start if Samaras is out wouldn't mind Ljunberg starting but would prefer Paddy and Forrest on the wings.

Hamilton 1-3 Celtic James Forrest, Georgios Samaras and Paddy McCourt​

 

My legend of a mate got me a ticket for this. Will it defo be on ? I don't know about there but the snows bad in Oban and that's were I will be leaving from.

Never a great place to go, always a crappy atmosphere, Hamilton have played better away from home this season, so hopefully we should get 3 points.
