I think that Celtic have the south upper. A tim showed me a seating plan earlier where it was coloured green.

Brown has sold two goals. Without a Scottish referee he is useless.

After this pasting I think they'll go back to the tried and tested. And Sinclair coming back in is guaranteed. They are pish at set pieces, we have to make every delivery count.

Celtic have named a more defensive team for PSG this time. Armstrong, Roberts and Sinclair on the bench.

If we gub them on the 30th we should get a good crowd in for the cup tie which is our next game. There are only likely four games in contention to be on TV as well with the Edinburgh derby being a cert and probably two of us, Fraserburgh vs Rangers and Aberdeen vs St Mirren. We could make a lot more out this than a lower league team away.

Seven lower league teams guaranteed in the last 16.

Edinburgh derby. Again.

Accies at Fir Park.

I fancy Arbroath away. It's been 18 years since that farce.

It's been almost 8 years since we played Falkirk. It could be a long time before we play in them in the league again.

I'd rather keep but him and go for the Scottish Cup and a high league placing. There's plenty of money to be made winning games.

I think low EPL is unrealistic but I could easily see Championship team offering £500k in January for an extra goal scoring option. I've seen QPR and Norwich linked.

Tait's deliveries are top drawer.

Grimshaw has a been a man down every time he has been on the park this season. Surprised to see him in the team. Plummer on the bench is a weird one as well.

By the looks of his twitter he's not even a Motherwell fan. More likely a h*n on the DL til they win something.

It doesn't seem like anyone has been excluded at the moment and there is the potential for other teams to gain Elite status. Looking at the"progressive" teams you would expect Dundee United to go for it when they are re-established in the top flight and Dundee when they have sorted their new stadium and training ground. Partick probably will as well when they have their training complex finished. St Johnstone don't seem interested in youth development and the Highland clubs are a write off due to the small population. The general idea of better qualified coaches working with the best players is definitely the way forward.

Willie Kilmarnock played 300 games, captained the Scottish Cup winning side and won the League Cup as well. He also had runners up medals in both competitions. If you replaced Higdon, Brian Martin, McKinnon, Gahagan and Lambert with older legends then it would be a pretty good list. Moult has a chance to join the ranks of the guys like Faddy, Coyne and Cooper who didn't play that many games but are club legends.

Three times as many people live in Lanarkshire as live in the Highlands and there are more people here than live in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire combined as well. I would guess it's a younger population with more kids as well. No Tayside teams being involved is strange but none of them seemed to be that keen on it.

MOTM for big Darren in the World Cup playoff in Copenhagen.

Cadden and Campbell start for the u21s. The game is live on Youtube. For some reason the game's in Perth.

Play 3-5-2 and you are asking Kipre to deal with Scott Sinclair ie you are asking to get beat. This team has goals in it mainly from set pieces, Moult making something from nothing and Cadden and Tait's deliveries. Celtic will have the majority of the ball regardless of what system we play so the priority has to be having a solid defence. Pressing at Hampden is a mug's game as the park is too big.

We haven't got anyone who can support the striker from centre midfield though. Tanner is the obvious choice but i'd say Moult and Bowman both work harder than him defensively. If you watch the semi final the strikers were taking turns at dropping very deep anyway.

Kipre is being hung out to dry. He's a massive guy who is being asked to go cover a huge area of the park as Cadden is constantly pushing up leaving acres of space between the two of them. He played much better in the second half last week in a back four.
