Does anyone agree that if we get beaten tomorrow, minus any 'honest mistakes of course'their should be a clear out at Celtic? Last week i watched sevco v Peterhead to see this magical warbs free flowing football. Seriously, we should hurt them badly.
I honestly cannot see one area of the pitch where they could hurt us. Dead balls around the box maybe, to be fair the right back can crack a lovely free kick, other than that pretty much nothing. I fully expect Broony and Biton to have total control of midfield, which should lead to us having plenty ball, and force them back.
They also seem to be a fairly small team, Peterhead caused them trouble from these, so i would expect decent quality in our crossing with so many targets. In their favour is that do play at a high tempo, the front three usually interchanging, but they are not as good as the press would suggest'
So. A team. Johanssen would not have been in mine till the last few weeks, but he looked very sharp v Murderwell. Rogic, always a favourite of mine, seems to be an after thought at the moment but there is quality there. So here goes.
Gordon
Lustig
Boyata
Mulgrew
KT
Broony
Biton
Roberts
Johanseen
Rogic
Griff.
GMS could consider himself unlucky in my team and Commons is a master hunskelper. CKR on bench to bully their CB pairing if needed. Always tricky against lower league teams and bad reffing but i just cannot see us losing.

GJ you are right about the gers RB ( Taverniea) spelling but if we push on down our left then he should be nowhere near the norm positions he gets into.

Agree GJ anything less than a dominant display against this tribute act will not be acceptable. If the unimaginable was to happen then Ronny should be sacked in the morning. I know we'll get the protectors saying Lenny was beaten by Morton Strachan was beaten by Clyde but the major difference was we had victories against Barcelona, Man U, Ac Milan etc at that time to soften the blows. Ronny hasn't beaten anybody .

My sentiments exactly; Miller is the only Sevco player that would worry me, because of his experience and record with Oldco.
My main concern is that rat-bag Thomson who has sent off Celtic players in several semifinals before and it has affected us badly.
Whether you believe it to be sheer biased, or utter incompetence - the guy has a long controversial history with Celtic. However;
On our game, we should be far superior all over the pitch and failure should result in serious repercussions for manager and players.

GJ who plays on the left, I would have thought it would be either SJ or Rogic in the squad with gems or CKR on the left?
However I agree with your points 100%.

I agree with that line up entirely GJ. Johansen has to get in for his versatility, iron man style and energy alone. Rogic will probably tire. So there could be time for GMS to come on. Possibly Commons. Or if things go well enough give the kids a run out!
Think we could do with a clear out regardless of todays result though. I'll not go down that road today. It's about positive energy today. Some may not be interested, but those that are should be happy come mid afternoon.
Can't comment on them as I've not seen them since we played last. I know Tavernier is decent, but I'm not concerned by him, nor anybody. We play like we can, don't shoot ourselves in the foot, common sense says it's a formality.
