St Mirren ⚫️⚪️ v Celtic 🟢⚪️ 05/03/23 1200 hours


Recommended Posts

Beautiful Sunday will never be forgotten, can’t see lightning striking twice tho.

Our injury list is getting bigger and they’ll be up for revenge but hopefully they’ve been on the Buckie all week celebrating and might keep the score down.

Here comes the shop front photos.

Routine 0-3. Don’t see a scudding, unless there’s a red card or we disappear up our own arse. We’ll probably make, and miss, a decent chance or two while it’s still 0-0 or 0-1. Robinson will (rightly) say something like ‘if that had went in…’ etc. Everyone goes home.

Basically, the usual script then. You never know, but… a more important matter is who have we got after we get this out the way and get their unpleasant hordes with their banners, smokebombs and songbook the fcuk out of our ground as quickly as possible.

What are the green brigade going to be protesting about this week? Got the bedsheets painted in their usual pish typeface yet?

Agree it'll be a struggle due to injuries etc plus beating them twice in one season hard anyway!

Also, we were "physical" against them in the win and I would fear that VAR would step in and help them out this time should their central defenders get breathed on and fall over. In essence, we won't be allowed to unsettle them in the same way.

1-3.

Angeball has yet to score in Paisley, never mind win.

 

Stating the obvious but St Mirren are where they are because of their home form, title challengers based on the points per game at home, relegation candidates using the same criteria away from home. 

 

Have a feeling this mini hoodoo will be much like the Livingston one, a few bad results at a tough away ground before finally getting the monkey off our back in a bit of style like the two recent comfortable wins at the Spaghetti-had.

3-1 Celtic.

Captain Joe, Tanser, Baccus and Greive all training for the first time this week, today and then on Saturday. Hopefully some of them will be passed fit for Sunday.

Not massively sure I'd be risking anyone who isn't 100% on Sunday, both because Celtic are absolutely the sort of team who will take advantage of any weakness, but also because we have much bigger battles ahead than this one.

Very much a free hit on Sunday. I want us to win of course, and there is no reason we can't give them another good game in Paisley, but our top six destiny probably lies in the three games against Utd, Livingston and Kilmarnock with a wee sniff of maybe getting something at Tynecastle.

Only having two games in April could be a massive blessing for us given the current injury situation. I definitely wouldn't be risking Greive this weekend since Watt won't be available for Tannadice.

It provides a safety net though of at least having viable options on the bench - something we've been badly missing the last 5 or so weeks since this crisis started.
