Lindau Posted December 19, 2016 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 They stated on Scotland Today that Barton and Devine were doubts for tomorrow. That would be a severe blow. Could be Liam and Ziggy in central defence. Why does that make me feel unwell! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topcat Posted December 19, 2016 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 As its only Celtic maybe we should send out the development team. Give some youth fringe players a chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabbath Posted December 19, 2016 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 just how embarrassing is this, the east end ***** are going to field a development side. If Archie cant get us up for this game now, then he never will. In the dressing room all he's got to say is "the tranny basher thinks your all *****, now get out there and stuff them".................

Big Col Posted December 19, 2016 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 It's an absolute piss take. They put out a reserve team for the "glamour" friendly that the original fixture was postponed for, and then talk about putting out a kids team for the rearranged game. Only in Scotland.

jagfox Posted December 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 Rodgers is talking about one or two younger players being added to the squad. I'd gladly play their development team as we would pump them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian_mac Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 Usual suspects jumping the gun here. Celtic will definitely NOT field a full development side. One or two players at most. Folk just can't wait till after the game to have a go at Archie can they? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Bunny Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 They stated on Scotland Today that Barton and Devine were doubts for tomorrow. That would be a severe blow. Could be Liam and Ziggy in central defence. Why does that make me feel unwell! If true I would rest one of them to save them for the RC game. The Celtic game is our game in hand so we won't lose ground by defeat and anything else is a bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaggyMad Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 I am, but happy to sit with my Sellik mates. Never get any hassle at Porkheid.....wouldn't be doing it if it was at the Asbestosdome on the South Side. Come to think of it, seeing as the roofs are apparently near collapse over there, I wouldn't set foot inside it. Make sure you use plenty of deodorant, smelly trampy ba*****ds!!! Hopefully we get right in about them from the start, 2-1 to the sweet smelling team 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady-isobel-barnett Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 Usual suspects jumping the gun here. Celtic will definitely NOT field a full development side. One or two players at most. Folk just can't wait till after the game to have a go at Archie can they? Too true. If I was one of the naysayers that post their gloom five minutes after a match has ended I'd be up in arms at such queue jumping. Altho' our lads beat them this season Celtic do have a few young lads who could play for many a first team club in the league. PJ Crossan perhaps being one of them. From what I've seen the same applies to for example a few of Hibs (if they could) and Motherwell youngsters. We've probably only Kevin Nisbet who's reached physical maturity to play and perhaps James Penrice (not quite bulked up yet). Altho' one's not eligible would Celtic fans think we weren't taking the game seriously if we fielded either or both? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindau Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 (edited) Totally agree with what Ian and M'Lady say. This only gives ammunition to the usual posters (see Sabbath above!) who will slaughter Archie and the team if we don't win. As has been said, I expect a strong Celtic side with one, maybe two youngsters playing. The boost for me is that Rogic is out.

Lenziejag Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 We would probably play a couple of youngsters if we were 7 points ahead plus games in hand. I don't think it is any slight on Thistle. Hopefully it comes unstuck for them,though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted December 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 Not expecting anything from this fixture apart from 100% effort from the lads. Hopefully the manager has them fired up to make some kind of amends for our recent doing on our own patch. Speaking of motivation I really need to get myself out the door...
