Winter
Well-known member
Since the 1-2 reverse at CP that seen us end the year on a low and sent the SMSM into a totally insane overdrive even by their own standards, we went into the winter break in turmoil, meltdown and had lost the title already (according to them). On top of that we were coming back from Dubai with only 1 home fixture in our next 5 league games and the YouTube CSC had thrown in the towel , naysayers at every turn. Since our return however and having played 4 of 5 fixtures away from paradise ,the scoreline currently stands at Celtic 17 v 2 Opposition. Instead of the rangers going top ,as they were supposed to, we are looking really good sitting top of the table 7pts clear and 12 goals better a goal difference so you could say 8pts clear. You could but we won't , that's what the rangers do and they do it so well that they've forgotten to return. They thought they'd done it, thought they'd stopped us. We now have another run of 5 league games before we go to the theatre of hatred on March 15. These 5 games alternate home and away consecutively until that match. Since the start of the year we have been the ones in overdrive, of the right kind, positivity, playing with 2 strikers ,2 hungry strikers and firing on all cylinders that even the SMSM have been caught napping in our wake, in stark contrast to the end of the year where we looked a team leggy and weary and in need of some vitamin D. It's worked a treat , the performance against Motherwell on Wednesday night quite breathtaking at times a Celtic side rejuvenated and far ,far from the side who had apparently lost our title on the back of 1 defeat. We look strong and slick , creative with blistering pace and a strength in depth weve not had for some time. Showing champion mentality and the winning nous that only we in this country have, but it's still a good distance to the winning line, we dont do 'thought we had' Our focus and spirit has been impressively welcome ,any who doubted the determination in this Celtic side have definitely been shown something they weren't expecting. It really was a total joy to watch that display against a very decent 3rd placed Motherwell side who ,as they always do , really had a go at us, our quality and standard of play was outstanding at times and overwhelmed them in the end as their manager said afterwards. This is a special Celtic side versus the whole country it feels like at times. We're not there yet and were taking nothing for granted, stay focused stay together and with performance levels like that this side will become the stuff of legend in the not too distant future. We're not there yet but we're really looking good COYBIG HH ☘☘☘☘☘☘☘☘☘
