In the Scotch Roman Catholic Derby. please log in to view this image VS please log in to view this image Dundee Hibernian take on the giants from Glasgow, Celtic FC this afternoon at Tannadice Park. We ask for your prayers to Saint Mary(Dundee), Saint Patrick (Ireland), Saint Andrew (Scotland) and St Mungo (Glasgow) to ensure this is a tough, sporting contest. We also ask that you take a moment to reflect on the life and times of St Sebastian, the Patron Saint of Athletes that ALL participants get to enjoy a safe and holy game. Celtic manager Neil Lennon : "My whole focus is on Dundee United this weekend. "Tannadice is a brilliant venue, normally we take plenty of supporters up there, it is a cracking atmosphere and usually it is a competitive game, so there will be no talk of Barcelona whatsoever. "Hopefully the players who play will do well and we will see what's left after that for Barcelona on Wednesday, but the priority is Dundee United. "It is important that we get back to winning ways and get back to consistency. "If the players needed reminding about any complacency they got it in spades last weekend. "We had a frank discussion on Sunday and they know what is required if they want to play at this club." Celtic will be without winger James Forrest and Lassad through injury, while fellow forward Georgios Samaras is doubtful. Striker Gary Hooper and midfielder Scott Brown, nursing niggling injuries, are in the squad but could be rested. Keep them all in your prayers. Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam Amen
Think of it as Celtic as the Pope, Hibs and Dundee United as being the College of Cardinals Ross County as a Missionary Priest.
anyway, **** this, just put out the under 19s and focus on the barca game. I say this more because the change of clocks has made watching 12.45 kick offs an absolute pain in the arse for me.
And if the U-19's fail....Sack Lennon Although I think I would be annoyed if I had travelled to Dundee and Lenny played the kiddies.
Forster; Matthews, Rogne, Wilson, Izaguirre; Brown, Wanyama, Ledley, Mulgrew; Commons, Watt Subs Zaluska, Ambrose, McCourt, Lustig, Kayal, Ibrahim +Miku
I heard Brown is going to give it everything up until Christmas then take a back seat. I don't know how I feel about that for a whole heap of reasons. Not least his own wellbeing.
"That's good refereeing" "Very harsh to book Izzagiuire" In the same ****ing sentence..... Frustrating game thus far. Best hope is a set piece.
