Celtic away 10/01

[Arabdownsouth]

There is still massive pressure on Celtic to catch Hearts, it's not going to be the usual turn up,steamroller us and back in time for tea and scones. They have to quickly revert back to their original playing style and perhaps they'll do this no problem but also perhaps not. We have to get in their faces the way we did in that second half at Tannadice. These players know now that we can beat them, I'm hoping they transfer that belief into this game.

6-0 thrashing incoming then 🫤

Not looking forward to this match at all now that McNeil is back. Going to be tough shift.

If they have got McNeil back we are in big trouble.

To be fair they seem to be re-signing everyone else.

I suspect a pumping today now, we should have got a pumping at Tannadice first half but for Kenny (still not sure how it took Goodwin to HT in that match to make obvious changes). It still shouldn't be the foregone conclusion of previous seasons though, they will go back to basics under Martin O'Neil, and not provide us with the same opportunities you got under Nancy, but this is still the worst Celtic squad quality wise in decades, Martin O'neil was papering over the cracks, and maximizing their talent and riding their luck, they had a lot of poor performances. Nancy was doing the complete opposite and making an average team worse. Celtic aren't any better than Rangers or Hearts right now, we've shown we can be decent away to top sides, we just need to avoid being a couple down by HT. If we can keep it level or even just to one, their nerves might still kick in given recent form. For all that, I'm not holding out much hope.

We won't be starting with Esselink this time and especially not Esselink at RCB v Maeda

Got to avoid an early goal generally,I don't fear this game though, not at all, if it goes better than you expect fair enough

We haven't been mugs against the top three upto now to be fair

Won 1 drew 3 lost 1 (last minute)

I still think that the deceased Billy McNeill might beat Bert for pace!

Celtic are poor. Yet United are still pathetic in their approach against them or The Rangers. Phuck sake just think that you are a European team taking on a Scottish team. What does that need, running at them from the off and taking a shot at goal when the opportunity arises. They might have better players but it is the manner that us and other Scottish teams are so sh!t scared of them that we actually make them look better than they are with our stand off and contain mantra. How to make them look ordinary is to score goals against them first and see how they cope with being behind.

Celtic were poor when O'Neil was in the dugout a couple of months ago. The players they have are miles better than what we have....but we shouldn't be fearing them! They will come flying at us...trying to kick start their season. They have a point to prove and all the pressure is on them. We can cause them problems though and if we can get in about them...we could easily unsettle them. Unfortunately, I think that our entire management will assume that they have become amazing overnight and will try to park the bus....which would be fine if we had a bus instead of a Robin Reliant. As usual with United..expecting the worst but hoping for the best!
Heart says- 2-1 United
Brain says 6-0 Celtic and we are a defeat to Ayr away from a sacking!

Maybe it's another Walter Rojas scenario and we accidentally signed Rigor Mortis!
