Seems like a strange ploy from a 'Well supporting journo.

When they beat us at Celtic Park last October our defence was: Gordon, McGinn, Koutroumbis, Longelo. When we beat them in December our defence was: O'Donnell, Sparrow, McGinn, Koutroumbis I don't know what that proves other than McGinn's not playing tonight.

There weren't meany streams available at the time for this game. The only one I was able to find was Celtic TV. The commentators were loving life when they were 1 - 0 up, distraught when Skippy scored the first and cut the mics when he scored the second. Glorious.

If Koutroumbis is fit, I imagine he'll start at the back.

Today, however, we have the Dunfermline game - which I'm looking forward to.

Not at all. I just think he probably knows how to manage his players better than we do.

If we ever did move to a stadium at the edge of town the media team is going to lose about 90% of their moody, urban shots.

We thought that in the play-off final against Sevco, and that turned out OK.

Exactly. Hearts have the title in their own hands. Take care of their own business and they are Champions. We have 4th spot in our own hands. Same rules apply.

Given he knows more about the context of missing players, late changes and things we worked on, maybe he does believe the players were outstanding.

I'm a simple man, so to keep thing simple, just match or better Hibs result on Wednesday and we are golden.

The worst thing about that article is the headline. I'm a Motherwell great who tormented Celtic but I'm desperate for Martin O'Neill to bury Fir Park demons I know it's the way headlines are written these days, but they are constructed to make it look like a quote when he actually didn't say any of that.

I watched an old interview with Skippy recently, and you can see he was still annoyed about Celtic fans asking him why he scored and celebrated on Skippy Sunday. As he pointed out, he's a professional footballer playing for his team and his team mates (and his win bonus that paid for his summer holiday at that time). And went on to say the Celtic fans shouldn't have been asking him why he did his job, they should have been asking the Celtic players why they didn't do their's. The same goes for whoever finishes second this season. Should have done a better job.

Funniest scenario would be if JBA gives Halliday a 3 minute "goodbye" cameo at the end of the match and he concedes a pen that leads to a Celtic win. The OF conspiracy nuts would be trying to work that one out until this time next year.

They're basically accusing our players of cheating. I can't imagine any professional not playing to win, especially when we still haven't guaranteed our European spot. Can you imagine guys like Watt, Just, Fadinger and Slattery thinking "Aye, let's lose this one"?

Agree with that. Despite assurances that VAR wouldn't be refereeing games, it quickly headed in that direction and players are trying to use it to their advantage.

I read a few Sevco fans already spouting their conspiracy theories last night that Motherwell were going to lie down to Celtic because of all the "Celtic connections" in our team and because JBA wants the Celtic job. Peak OF paranoia. You'd think if they were that worried they wouldn't have rolled over in today's game.

Just seems to have an auto-charge function. He runs about like a maniac, gets chopped and looks like he's crocked. Then 10 seconds later, jumps back up again and off he goes. If he has a strong World Cup he could bring in a nice transfer fee. Not that I want him to leave, but he's been my player of the season. Fantastic business bringing him in.

Same players, though, and they were fortunate to beat us at Celtic park with the dodgy pen. And just as reminder, only Falkirk have picked up 3 points at Fir Park this season.

Our starting 11 last time we cuffed them at Fir Park was: Ward O'Donnell Sparrow McGinn Koutroumbis Slattery Fadinger Watt Priestman Said Just

Last time we beat them with SOD, Sparrow, McGinn and Koutroumbis at the back and no centre forward.

From Skippy Sunday to Watt Wednesday.

Exactly.

2 -1 to the good guys.
