Redwhiteandblue 3,330 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Confident one minute then shitting it the next. I dont know how I feel, I just hope we get out there and go rite at them. This is a must win, draw isnt good enough but got a feeling thats what the outcome will be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bringonthbarca 25 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Im very confident. Quite strange, been to three and been a wreck before themYou going on sunday bud? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bringonthbarca 25 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I think alot will depend on their result tomorrow. If they drop points they will come to ibrox needing to win, which might favour us. If the win they might come and sit tight and try and pick us on the break (kind of like new year) which actually worries me a bit more. So all in im confused bag of nerves as always for an old firm!

Caddy 7 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 No, I'm not. I believe we have the better team (when they actually play), and I believe we can play much better (like in the cup final), but these past few performances (despite getting the wins) have been dreadful. We can just manage to scrape it against Hamilton, Aberdeen and St Mirren, but Celtic won't be that easy. So, no, confident isn't the right word. I'm hoping the team come out and show why they won the league cup though and storm to victory. Hoping. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misteral 2,932 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 We do have to win and Walter and Ally better instill that into the team. The title needs to be in our hands after Sunday so a draw is not acceptable. Fingers crossed Killie can do something on Wednesday but I doubt it and I expect them to pick up three points. So if we draw on Sunday we will have a one point lead with only four games to go but five to go for them. It would not be good to be facing that scenario. It's at Ibrox and I'm confident, just.

bdog19 16 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I always feel quietly confident going into these games, but anything can happen, if we press them high up the pitch and don't allow them to play then there is no reason why we shouldn't get the result.

OceanRain 2,845 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 If the Bear who was posting on here before the League Cup Final - about going to the match in his lucky jersey - is in attendance then I personally think we're on easy street.However, if not, it'll be squeaky bum time, as per.

Misteral 2,932 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 It's rare that any side is on easy street in these games. But it can happen and lets hope Sunday is one of those days for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bothwellbear 1,392 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I dont know, it will change when i get to kick off and from the feeling of the rest of the supporters at the game. Lets hope for a big atmosphere and get right behind the team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaffbear 4,107 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I was very confident at New Year and have been less so since so i'll leave it just now...Could go either way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCS 649 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Not at all! We continue to play dire football, give the ball away constantly in good positions and our ball control and first touch is deplorable.We won 4 - 0 last night and yet we played some awful football - although the win was very, very welcome!2 penalties, and one missed, and two goals from open play against 8 men. When they went to 9 men I thogh we would 'tank' them but we kept giving the ball away and inviting them on. Then they went to 8 and we still couldn't find a man in our build ups. Our passing was constantly going astray and we gave the ball to them so often it looked as though they still had 11 on the pitch!I'm sorry to sound so critical, but apart from the 3 points there is little to commend that performance.

gordo7 147 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I'm never confident about these games, form goes for nothing when we're playing ra sellic. I just hope that we attack them rather than sitting back. This is an absolutely massive game for us. Let's hope the team does us proud and come's away with the 3 points.

SirWalterSmithLegend 206 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 No Celtic are clear favourites, bigger squad and a greater need for title, if its anythging like previous Lennon v Smith derbies we will lose.We will be right up against it. Just how we like it! Win it we are nearly there :-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RANGERST1LLADIE 33 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 COuld go either way tbh. Will wait till I see the team before a predict anything.......Sayin that, we'll win 2-1.

Murdie 0 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 With the league title in the running, this game is a must win. Can't say I'm too confident but we have to win, can't be having with a loss/draw otherwise we start relying on them slipping up, which I can't see happening.

Guardian 4,281 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Now that the penny has dropped for walter and he's realised the way to stuff celtic is by taking the game to them, we should win this one.The 4-6-0 formation he persisted with, despite it being proven wrong so many times, was a gift to the tims.All the teams that have beaten celtic have taken the game to them. Up the pace, don't give them time on the ball and force them into mistakes is the way to go.Sitting back deep, letting them stroll about and pick passes at their leisure just gets us pumped. We can't win a game from our own half.As long as we keep Hooper out the game, and get men forward when in possession, we'll get the win. Hooper is vital to them. If he's kept out, they struggle to score. Not an easy task I'll grant you, but it's been done to great effect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
