Ok it won't be long now until we celebrate the birth of the baby Jesus and sing about peace on earth and goodwill to all men then four days later we will gather en-masse to give dogs abuse to the people and two days after that we'll be having a wee greet at the bells singing a song the worlds most famous Freemason wrote about auld times sake while getting emotional. What's the predictions then for 29th December? Will Stevie G get Rogered or will Brendan be hung out to dry by the G-string?

4-1 Forrest to run them ragged. After every goal do a Huddle in the middle of their midden. If we do gub them it's a certainty the troglodytes will try get to our players whilst the stewards and coppers make a half arsed job trying to prevent it. As for the paranoia regarding Dallas they could have Tiny Wharton resurrected, Clancy, & McDonald officiating and we still would gub them with fast free flowing football.

1-0 will do with a controversial penalty or an offside goal in the last minute. Mon the hoops.

Pud, I’m always Mr Pessimistic before these games and the law of averages says they have to beat us some time. I agree though if we play our usual game it should be won at a canter. Here go’s I’ll throw this in and run as many won’t share my opinion but nothing unusual there given I’m one of few in the James McLean No.1 Celtic supporters club. Brown if he’s fit would be first on my team sheet particularly if we’re turning up to play in front of either 800 or potentially no fans. We’ve been playing fluid stuff without him but I think Rodgers will be thinking the same thing.

They are dung! We've played more difficult games this season so we should approach this game like any other. The pressure is all on them. Slippy will be so terrified of our midfield, he'll play the defensive pap he played against us at Parkhead. This time though, we've got the firepower to do them proper.
Sevco 1 (Moronos) Champions 3 (Forrest, Rogic, Edouard)

If Boyata quotes about regretting choosing Celtic over Everton are true I reckon his memory needs a jog. He would never have lasted a season in EPL back when he signed for us. Looking a great player atm but remember the doubts about whether VvD would step up to EPL? Reckon he woulda disappeared.

{Ed007's Note - I think you've picked him up wrong, Davie - the way I read it Boyata was saying he should have got out of City earlier.

"Under Roberto Mancini I got my first chances. I was 19 at the time. After that season I was able to go to Everton. I should have done that.
City became bigger and bigger every year and that does not make it easy for a youth player to continue to grow."

To me he's saying that looking back he should have realised how difficult it would be for him to progress at City while they were spending 100s of millions on players and he should have taken the move to Everton (or any team that would have gave him gametime) at that particular time.}

Am sure in the same interview he said he had an earlier chance to join us and should have done that as well.

Agreeing with you ed is how I read it.

27 Nov 2018 19:35:23
That’s how I read it ed. Funny how he’s out with his stories in the press just now being open n honest think his pr guru trying to help him get some good publicity after the shambles of the summer. Me I’ll never forgive him and as good as he’s been i still wouldn’t give him a jersey.

{Ed007's Note - I don't think it'll make much difference how he looks - I'd still brass neck it and offer Leicester Dedryck + £5/6 million for Benkovic in January.}

27 Nov 2018 20:56:10
Ed Benkovic would be a fantastic signing for me he could be the next VVD.

{Ed007's Note - I think Benkovic is a better player than van Dijk was when we bought him and I think he's a year or two younger too.}

28 Nov 2018 05:01:47
Reckon you’re right, took it badly. Agree on Benkovic.

28 Nov 2018 16:55:59
Fair play to the lad for coming to us on loan, Benkovic has shown himself to be a quality player. I don't know what the realistic chances are of getting him on a permanent deal but my goodness he has shown himself to be not only a strong defender but also a big influence on other defenders in our team.
In a nutshell he has made a major contribution to our leaky defence becoming quite flippin' good. HH.

Baby Dallas the referee for the final on Sunday. He will do all he can to make his old man proud.
Treble Treble has the sfa in a panic cos they also have midden doing Sevco match.
The big guns are out in force.

27 Nov 2018 13:45:50
Paranoid beyond beleif, ref Dallas will manage the game fairly, that's not saying he won't make a mistake or two. We have poor referees in this country not cheating or biased ones, I've said it before and will say it again, how have we won 6 trophies (soon to be 7) with the SFA and referees against us? Oh wait the answer is simple, they're NOT against Celtic!

27 Nov 2018 13:46:52
If we play the way we have lately it won't matter who the official's are.

27 Nov 2018 16:36:58
Makes no difference what 'honest mistake merchant' they send:-
Baby Dallas, Bobby Madhun, Cheatin Beaton, Mclean, Thomson, Collum and even the guy that refused the stick-on penalty at Hamilton;
They all know that when we play at our best, we are untouchable.

27 Nov 2018 16:37:15
We don't have cheating or bias refs in Scotland 😂😂😂.

27 Nov 2018 16:47:43
Don't start me on the paranoia on here😆 tbh I actually think Beaton and Madden are two of our better refs👍.

27 Nov 2018 17:17:16
Ooft imagine being in a room with oab and jazz 😂.

27 Nov 2018 20:23:20
😂😂I'm sure we would have a good adult conversation. Honestly though I just don't see bias. If you listen to 'The Rangers'fans they say the very same, it's just down to poor officials, nothing more in my opinion.

27 Nov 2018 23:22:00
Reading the comments above, some Celtic fans are getting complacent when it comes to officials due to our recent success.
Think back to the inverness semi, cruising until 2 officials choose to turn a blind eye, before we knew it the treble was gone again.
We have the chance of a lifetime to keep this trophy run going. Remember the sfa and scottish league are getting more embarrassed due to the lack of competition and will try anything in their power to stop us hence baby dallas getting his first final.
My brother in law was an old neighbour of dallas. andrew and his brother always wore the liquidated gers tops even though their dad would get them to be motherwell mascots a few times to put up a smokescreen.

His son Stewart is as bitter as you'll get. He's a site agent for cala homes a company that Hugh dallas used to supply windows to. I know him and can tell u he hates us with everything he's got, still maintains they're all motherwell fans.
