Jock Wallace, Then Motherwell manager and a very young Gary McAllister.

 

Looks like Gullane sands.

Hopefully a 0-0 draw, a few injuries and a mental health meltdown in the home dugout.

Hubz and sheep play out a 1-1 draw with hubz snatching an equaliser in the dying minutes. Surprisingly there were no aeroplane antics.

I suppose one feature of this game may be that we will get a look at how this team deal with the limited kicking strategy types such as Motherwell. And I’m sure Stevie is shrewd enough to remind the likes of Morelos that hey Alfie we have two huge matches over the next week.

 

You’re going to be marked out for provocation. Screw the nut.

A fair ref and a continuation of thete kicking strategy today. Combine that with our pace and speed of moving the ball will see motherwell down to about i men.

It is a Scottish referee and Craig Thomson at that. One of his assistants is called Paul O'Neil, it will be us that is down to <10 men

You can get 4/1 for a red card in match (bet365)

 

Craig Thomson has shown 3 red cards in his last 28 matches and there are two patterns.

 

1. All three were sending off players of teams playing against Celtic.

 

2. Two were the same player, Cedric Kipre of Motherwell (one rescinded).

 

 

Aside, Celtic only won one of the three games.

I woudl expect to see a 3-at-the-back-test in time for next Sunday, with something like ...

 

 

McGregor

 

Flanagan - Goldson - Katic

 

Tavernier - Arfield - Jack - Barisic

 

Candeias - Kent

 

Lafferty

 

... but would not be surprised if we would go ...

 

McGregor

 

Tavernier - Goldson - Katic - Flanagan

 

Jack - Arfield

 

Candeias - Ejaria - Kent

 

Morelos

 

... again. Which would be disappointing. That said, no team in Scotland could live with that, so SG may test it again.

[Rousseau 9,351]

Well, is that 3-5-2, or is Tavernier playing RW?
