Hearts v Celtic - Sunday 2nd October

I can’t wait for this. I hope some diet hun cunt runs onto the pitch again but this time Neil sees him coming and beats the living fuck out of him. :guns:

I expect the atmosphere to be pretty incendiary and more than a bit vitriolic. It would be a cracker to attend, I imagine.

I see Scott Brown’s ankle problem hasn’t settled down and he has to visit a specialist so he’s out indefinitely.

I’d like to see Wanyama retained in the side and Mulgrew to stay at centre back too.

Ledley is a doubt with a tight groin. Samaras should remain on the bench.

Also, Lukasz Zaluska should keep his place in goal. And Adam Matthews has been very impressive recently and should get the start at right back. Ledley’s having a scan on his groin today apparently.

I agree with that, particularly with regard Zaluska. Forster managed to stay relatively error free last season but he’s a poor keeper and he’s beginning let errors slip into his game more frequently. Zaluska is a more better keeper, takes crosses well, has good reflexes and can get down low to ball unlike Forster. He also spreads himself much better in one-on-one situations. If Zaluska cuts down his errors he can be a decent keeper, but I don’t think that will happen, he’s still a better option than Forster at this time.

I’d retain Ledley at left back if he’s fit, think I’d rather Loovens returned for Majstorovic though. Matthews should keep his place. Would like to see a midfield of Forrest, Ki, Kayal, McCourt. Little chance of Lennon trusting McCourt away at Tynecastle though. I hope to see Stokes and Hooper up front.

Joe Ledley is reportedly out of tomorrow’s game due to the groin injury sustained on Thursday night.

The huns went 10 points clear earlier today…

to avoid confusion, I’d like to point out that the huns are 10 points clear of Celtic but only 9 ahead of Motherwell.

Bandage check your phone. I’ve to make a big decision in the next 8 minutes.

It’s charging in another room mate. What’s your problem?

Liar liar pants on fire.

Maybe the early kick-off will make tomorrow less volatile but I don’t know.

I hope somebody breaks Ian Black up too.

There’s a pitch inspection taking place at the moment after heavy overnight rain.

Fuck, can’t these lazy arseholes cover the pitch overnight?

Game is ON!

Pitch looks shit though.

They’re missing Driver and Kevin Kyle.

Good.

I’m immensely looking forward to this game.

The surface looks okay from this picture but the pitch is apparently saturated and the ball’s not rolling much on it.

A day for Wanyama and Kayal to break up diets, I imagine.

12.30 or 12.45 kick off?

Forster;
Matthews, Majstorovic, Mulgrew (Cap), El Kaddouri;
Forrest, Wanyama, Ki, Commons;
Hooper & Bangura

12: 45

SUBS: Zaluska, McCourt, Slane, Samaras, Stokes, Rogne & M Wilson

Is Loovens injured or dropped?

Happy enough with the team in general but I’d prefer Zaluska in goals and I think Stokes is unlucky to miss out again.

Shit. What’s the story with Beram?

Commons back in from the cold.

Again, not a chance you’d have predicted that team.
Very disappointed not to see Zaluska retain his place in goal.
Still, come on Celtic.
