    He does. Injuries/score permitting, coming on in the final minute at Hampden would be nice.

    After six years at Parkhead Rodgers feels the fans’ favourite has earned the right to be given a proper send off.

    He said: “He’s not fit. He just has to wait and see the response to the issues he’s had with his back.

    “The most important thing for him at the minute is getting fit. He was outside doing some jogging this week so we’ll see how it goes.

    “Yes, I’m sentimental — but not over-sentimental. We’ll just wait and see.



    I think he will get a chance.

    Would have loved him to have come on yesterday for Broony, albeit not for 30 seconds.

    I reckon he'd have lined one up and smashed the * for the sixth.

    He will feature before end of season.. if he had the legs he would have been in Rodgers team this season.

    I believe he will be included in a match day squad and get 5-10min to see out a game..

    We are steam rolling teams anyway so I reckon having kris in for a game with his ability on the ball it shouldn't effect us to much

    Reckon BR is that bothered about the invincibility? I;d be playing our first XI to keep that record.

    People see so split on him, either like me and think he deserves a farewell 90 minutes, or other folk think he's been robbing us of a wage for the past year and the financial benefit is goodbye enough.

    If he plays it'll be v Hearts.

    Deserves his 15 minutes when we lead a game by atleast a couple goals.

    Superscoreboard Twitter said the same thing as the above tweet. First reply is...

    "How can commons no be fit??? Only thing Brendan has got wrong all season"

    * *. Some people still can't * move on.

    BR on whether Kris Commons will be involved at the weekend: "Kris isn't fit so he won't be involved. Working his way back."

    Probably not match fit, is what that's referring to.

    Nah the guy keeps going on about how Commons should have played more this season. "Canny turn the back on a player that saved us many of times" is what he says.

    One of our most successful seasons ever, potentially, and people are still pining for a guy who is past it and isn't fit enough for our team. I don't get it.

    Suppose he just feels a sense of loyalty to Commons considering how well he's done for us.

    That's not how it works though.

    Strange to think it's 6 years since he signed, still remember his debut crystal clear. What a goal that was against Aberdeen!

    Would be good to see him get one last game, even if @Dear Hunter couldn't give a * ;)

    I'm not against him getting a cameo against Hearts on the last day but I don't know why some people think he should have played more this season. He's clearly finished here.

    Fit or not, I'd give him a couple of run outs in the league games.

    Played a major Part in a great historical Celtic team with Lennon. Was it better than the current one though...?
