That's a big call Jinky. Very much hope you're right.
Is a big call but like Espiritosanto said our league form has been rampant and superb. Cup games can go either way especially when officiating is as awful as it was, I'm certain that had that shot gone in and not come back off the bar we'd be looking at a potential treble.
Not to be this season and one off games appears to be their speciality this season, consistency is our thing and I see no reason why that wouldnt continue.
I also think that we will face a Ross County like weve never faced before , one that's playing for a European spot and maybe not parking the bus so much as in previous games theyve often been fighting for survival, top 6 for county is some achievement.
As little time I have for characters like Malky Mackay ex celt or not, hes racist , homophobic, and just generally a nasty piece of work , what hes done at county is some achievement given they lost their first 10 games or so.
That's as much praise i can give for a rotten apple of a guy.
Our bhoys will be chomping at the bit to reassert their dominance and show that was a one off, I'm sure Ange will have it drummed into them that though we were poor by our standards we could still have won that game, look at where we're at and have come from etc.
Weve seen county can be a dangerous side enough times but now we have a Celtic side that have a point to prove and I think we will see it proved .
Might even be a blessing in disguise and a reality check at the same time, gone is talk of the treble and that could help the team focus more on the bigger picture.
Cant see us failing to turn up two games in a row.
This has been a great season of the Scottish premiership, perhaps the best for many years it's been so tight when you take the top 3 aside.
I expect them to have a go knowing theres a potential euro spot and that could play into our hands .
Looking for a big response that's for certain.
In a strange way there's pressure on county to see their great season rewarded with a place in Europe and that's something new to them and though we lost a cup tie our unbeaten league run remains we are still the team to beat, the form side and it should be a good game.
If county park the bus then we may as well do away with the split . What would be the point in playing for a top 6 place to then be happy with their lot? Cant see that happening, damage limitation only if they're 3 down by ht
