After our fine away win at Motherwell we go in to this game feeling a good bit better about ourselves after a really good solid performance.

You have to assume that the team will be out along the same lines but we might go to a back three again similar to the set up against Rangers in the cup.

We were unlucky not to take something out of the home game against Celtic in October and I wonder if the sporting Gods might just smile on us for a change?

It was 4-4-1-1 in the cup

Who's ref for this game?

Just wondering if we might get some better treatment after the last old firm game.

David Dickinson - also shite. The penalty he  gave against McCart in Paisley last year really sticks on the mind. Greg Aitken on VAR duties iirc

You know, just thinking; there was a time you only had to worry about one ref. Nowadays the incompetent infadel on Var is potentially more dangerous!

A heavy watered 'cow field' could be a cracking nil-nil.

Very true, Celtic will turn up and take 80% of play and will attack on either wing and just for variety through the middle.  The only hope is to score 2 goals during the 20% of play when we have the ball and defend as though our lives depend on it.  That is what St Mirren managed, nobody else has.
