Beast Boy Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 **** all this talk about withdrawing. I’d be happy if no fans went, but the team must turn up imo. We need every single player to understand in no uncertain terms what is expected of them. The shit we are being hit with should be used as motivation. Hand Hibs a final? No ****ing thanks.

jambo-in-furness Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 How severely the SPFL can handicap us remains to be seen, I’m sure they are intent on hobbling us further. But, even if Corvid - 19 does not cancel this game we must give it our best shot, just to show these *******s we are better than this. One things for sure, the FOH donations rile them much more than they care to admit, it’s our biggest weapon at the moment so, keep pledging and watch the enemy fall, one by one.

I think over the course of the season Neilson is the more reliable and predictable choice but in terms of the Derby, I would be 95% sure that we would be in the cup final had Stendel been kept on. With Neilson I feel it's closer to 40%. If he doesn't improve his Derby record massively, he will be hounded out again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTT Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Reject participating in it. Its a glorified PR exercise for Celtic to collect another trophy. The season ended. Full stop. We're being asked to risk players who won't be at match fitness in a high pressure fixture against our local rivals for what? So Celtic can get handed another trophy? **** that. Total waste of our time, money and energy. We're now not even allowed to train to try and get ready for it. I know people don't like this idea, but its a total nonsense. Relegate us but expect us to turn up to fulfil your TV fixture contract? Piss off. Withdraw Ann. Come on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwidoug Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 I'm starting to like the idea of our players and coaches fronting up to Hibs at Hampden Park, blazing angry. Glaring at them in the tunnel, first to every tackle. Beating them. Meanwhile, our directors giving their counterparts and any SFA clowns the very, very cold shoulder.
