    Hello Stereo - nice to see you back (I thought you'd left for good.)

    Thanks for the suggestion, right, but I'm in Ireland. It's hard enough to get frigging lemons here, never mind lemon thyme. If I asked in Skibbereen I would be killed, simple as that.


    It really, really is.

    I reckon Stokes and Samaras will start (Hoopers overall game was shocking at the weekend) and 4-2 celtic.
    Reckon Glasgows domestic violence figures will go up hmmm 143.7% verus last weekend!

    ( just so im clear given that you need us to win to win the league Sunday, and ive predicted Celtic win, does that make me a tim without the busfare this weekend rather than a hun without the busfare? it confuses me at times)

    Another refugee from Ayrshire living in Edinburgh.

    At least I had the sense not to support either Ayr or Killie.

    You don't need to explain yourself Stu - you're allowed to hate everybody.

    Best of luck tomorrow (even though I've already said that the cup hangover, personal stuff about Kelly's dad and Motherwell gunning for second is probably enough for Motherwell to get a result).

    It's a win-win for us - you guys win or draw and we can win the league on Sunday if we win.
    You guys lose and Motherwell charge on for second <ok>

    I hope Samaras is a certainty, to start. Hooper and Stokes would just suit Rangers as they need to play close together for their quick
    passing. We didn't see that last week as Killie had plenty of men back as soon as Celtic crossed the half way line. I am not sure about
    Forrest, wasn't in the game last week and I think he and Matthews have played too much this season and need a break. I think it is a
    pity Mark Wilson hasn't been playing recently as I would like him at right back. We badly missed a full back bombing forward last week,
    as we had no-one pulling their defence out of shape. Hope we win and hope we are the champions on Sunday, but bhoys be very careful.

    I predict funny going ons at Killie tomorrow to insure we can't win the league at Ibrox .Instructions from spl/sfa and police will be handed out to the poor referee and linesman . These points gained by Motherwell will be handed back when Rangers visit Fir Park next weekend. No loser in the battle for 2nd place, killie were given their bonus last weekend with the non penalty decision .

    There is a rumour going about your guys are just back from Malaga? I have no qualms about that, if I was a killie player and had just won the league cup I'd be doing the same but kinda ruins our hopes of you getting a result <laugh>

    I will be pleasantly surprised if we approach the game hungry and determined enough to get a win, the players know they dont have to put themselves about in a battle -which it will almost assuredly be - in order to win the title...whereas rangers have a " cause " or point to prove.

    Though an early bad tackle from the bin man might change that.

    I'm confident. I don't see why we shouldn't be.

    I'll settle for 6-0.

    I think that every single match though. If we were 2 down against Barca with 5 minutes to go and down to 10, I'd still think we could sneak it.

    they are gonna go out and try kick lumps out of everyone. hopefully we do not react and try play football. if its a game of football there is no reason they should beat us. if we get dragged into a kicking match then i could see them winning.

    If it turns into a kicking match it'll be because we've set out to play football and the huns couldn't handle it so will have provoked us into it; either way we should still beat the bastards (that isn't a prediction just to be clear, I don't do them cos I always jinx us)

    A bruised ankle looks like it will rule out Celtic winger James Forrest and striker Gary Hooper is also a doubt. Hooper has a dead leg and, like Forrest, he will be assessed on Saturday ahead of Sunday's game.

    - BBC

    No confirmation on whether either player will be available but the gossip is that both will be missing. That means that Lennon is likely to start with Stokes up front of his own with Samaras and probably Commons providing support from the flanks.

    After today's Kilmarnock victory over Motherwell, tomorrow's match takes on huge significance as the Bhoys can win the title at the home of their rivals for the first time since the historic footballing year of 1967.

    Celtic manager Neil Lennon: "If we win the title on Sunday we will enjoy the moment but we we won't be there to gloat.

    The last thing we want to do is rub it in people's faces. We will be respectful of everyone at the stadium. It doesn't matter when it [the title win] comes or where it comes it will celebrated regardless, there will be a lot of euphoria, a lot of joy and a lot of pride.

    But we will be there to celebrate among ourselves then we look forward to a home game against St Johnstone were we can relax and enjoy what we have achieved.

    We are talking hypothetically here, it will depend on how Motherwell get on against Kilmarnock and if things go our way on Sunday.

    I don't like talking about winning games and winning titles because there is still a lot of football to be played before we can actually achieve that.

    The only preparation we are making is to get the boys ready to win a game of football and if that means winning the title after that then so be it."

    Remember the clocks go forward an hour tonight. Wouldn't want you missing an hour of what should be a dramatic encounter.

    Rangers fans will disgrace themselves for starters, Lee mcculloch will require weak refereeing to stay on the park . The Celtic end will have one huge party, finally 3-0 the Celtic ,big Sammy with two .
