“He’s buzzing as well because he gets an opportunity to be involved and do the things he loves, so it’s great.”\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n \n \u00a0Such is the strength of the current squad that our top scorer is unlikely to to shift our in form number nine, Giorgios Giakoumakis, or his partners Jota and\u00a0 Daezen Maeda,\u00a0 as they have built up an understanding recently, learning to play well together.<\/p>\n \n \u00a0Forrest, Kyogo and Abada may well come on as a unit to replace the entire front line to work on an already tiring Ibrox defence….<\/p>\n \n \u00a0Maybe that’s why we’re looking forward to it more than usual.<\/p>\n \n Did someone say 7-0 ?<\/p>\n \n \n \n \u00a0Well, 7-1.<\/p>\n \n \u00a0I forgot about their penalty.<\/p>\n \n \n \u00a0They’re not so enthusiastic over the river though. Alfredo Morelos isn’t available, the extra weight he’s been carrying has knackered his knees and he needs crutches to get about. that leaves them short up front and reduces their options for that penalty.<\/p>\n \n \u00a0Ryan Kent has been practicing at the swimming baths, and to be fair he’s pretty adept at leaving his leg to drag over an outstretched opponent.<\/p>\n \n \u00a0While all the Celts seem to be in great condition mentally and physically, there are doubts over both conditions within the walls of Mordor.<\/p>\n \n \u00a0On the pitch, Ryan Jack is probably their most influential player, and he called out Georgios Giakoumakis for his “disrespectful ” comments, complaining that the Celt was being disrespectful.<\/p>\n \n \u00a0It’s probably a good job Jack won’t hear the team talk…<\/p>\n \n \n \u00a0Reo Hatate also rates Celtic higher than “rangers “, which is all Giakoumakis did, but it’s clearly rattled them, and it may be that the statements are pinned to the dressing room wall to inspire the “rangers ” players.<\/p>\n \n \u00a0Here’s Giakoumakis’s<\/p>\n \n \u03c9 \u03bf\u03b9 \u03a1\u03ad\u03b9\u03bd\u03c4\u03b6\u03b5\u03c1\u03c2 \u03b5\u03af\u03bd\u03b1\u03b9 \u03c3\u03ba\u03b1\u03c4\u03ac\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n \n \u00a0And this is what Hatate said<\/p>\n \n \u3042\u3042\u30ec\u30f3\u30b8\u30e3\u30fc\u306f\u30b7\u30c6\u3067\u3059<\/p>\n \n \n \u00a0If they put that on the wall in crayon they’ll think Jimmy Bell’s been trying to draw pictures.<\/p>\n \n \n \u00a0If they’re still unsure what it means, the Celtic support in the ground will probably inform them during the game…..<\/p>\n \n \n \u00a0Maybe we’re being a little over confident here, and the narrative that these games never adhere to the form book, but in fact , they usually do end up with the in form team taking the spoils, and what you will notice is that because pundits won;t be able to find a genuine reason to support their hope that “rangers ” take all three points, they’ll fall back on the ” Old Firm ” uniqueness myth, and since it’s not the Old Firm and is simply the world’s newest major derby. that to me seems a little optimistic.<\/p>\n \n \n \u00a0Celtic are likely to start this game pretty much the same way they started the previous clash between the two…at full pace, and that is likely to get the same early outcome.<\/p>\n \n \u00a0“rangers ” don’t handle their own support very well..apart from when it comes to fleecing a few quid out of them or just telling them what they want to hear, and are clearly worried about the crowd’s behaviour.<\/p>\n \n \u00a0A recent game against Dundee was stopped while the fans threw toilet rolls in protest to the club\/company taking part in the Sydney Cup as a support act to Celtic, which is the accepted narrative, although the real reason is the heightened use of child abuse vitriol being hurled towards Celtic and their fans on social media, which has replaced even their anti catholic or Irish bile for the moment.<\/p>\n \n \u00a0To calm their fans and encourage their venom towards Celtic, “rangers ” have pulled out of the Australian tournament, producing a fairly vague statement outlining none of their reasons…<\/p>\n \n \u00a0Not that it really matters, should Celtic race into a three goal lead early in the game, all hell will break loose, but once again, they’ve been\u00a0 told them what they wanted to hear…<\/p>\n \n \n Rangers can confirm the Club will not be participating in the Sydney Super Cup in November 2022.<\/em><\/p>\n After it became clear the tournament organisers were unwilling to fulfil their commitments to Rangers, we have, with immediate effect, terminated the Club\u2019s agreement with the organisers.\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Speculation surrounds the reasons, one of which was that the organisers refused to use the Old Firm tag, but it can’t be that<\/p>\n \u200f\u200f\u200e \u200e<\/em><\/p>\n \n \n \n \u00a0Given that they will face a significant financial penalty for pulling out, especially if they have been paid a percentage up front, then it seems unlikely they’ll actually pull out.<\/p>\n \n \u00a0What’s more likely is that after the three games against Celtic, they’ll say they couldn’t get out of the agreement and are playing “reluctantly ” or “under protest “<\/p>\n \n \n \u00a0In a wider context, they’ve just closed an important and lucrative income stream, as they’ve shown themselves to a worldwide market that they cannot be trusted to honour an agreement, something Hummel, Sports Direct and others could certainly confirm.<\/p>\n \n \u00a0Our media won’t cover that sort of story, and instead will help promote the only pre season option now open to them, an Ibrox Cup featuring Linfield, Hamburg and Police Scotland XI, which will keep the bears happy and the blue pound rolling.<\/p>\n \n As the rest of the world sighs in relief…<\/p>\n <\/p>\n As the Greek city Times explains today, over in Sydney<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Sydney Super Cup, or more commonly known in Australia as Ange Postecoglou\u2019s Homecoming Tour, has been saved from having to deal with the consequences of dealing with Rangers fans.<\/em><\/p>\n Rangers withdrew from the four-team tournament after supporters of the Ibrox side protested and expressed their unwillingness to participate in a friendly tournament as the support act for Ange\u2019s Celtic FC \u2013 despite the generous monetary compensation.<\/em><\/p>\n And for this, Rangers fans have inadvertently saved the harbour city and the Sydney Super Cup from themselves.<\/em><\/p>\n One cannot read a Scottish football forum or social media without a plethora of Rangers fans disgustingly exploiting victims of child abuse to disparage their Glasgow rivals.<\/em><\/p>\n At least 22 former Celtic Boys Club players, with likely more to join, have launched a class action lawsuit against Celtic FC for historical abuse against them. Four men associated with Celtic Boys Club or Celtic have been convicted of abuse.<\/em><\/p>\n![\"black](\"https:\/\/media0.giphy.com\/media\/cFkRdozf0Df4A\/200w.gif?cid=ecf05e471y2iiye9k7iskizvv9frz5ogibnvgqy6ycojzz0o&rid=200w.gif&ct=g\")
