Fearful we're going into this with Sakala as our CF and Ure as back up on the bench.

Even worse I'm wondering if he'll go 3 at the back with Sands alongside Davies and Goldson to get more bodies swamping the midfield.

Seriously got a dread for this one.

We've went from Beale saying that roofe and colak were fit, to them not even in the squad for wed game, to now fearing we have 3 injured strikers for next monday

A fucking absolutely shambolic season so far 🤣

[LochendBilly 8,413]

Borna to grow a pair and kick that wee jump the dyke bastard McGregor all over the place would be nice, but I doubt it.

If only we had invested properly and recruited properly we'd have cover in place instead of trying to win a title on the cheap where our opponents have spent millions.

A season defining game for us. Anything but a win and the league's over. That's how the players need to approach it.

[NorthernLights 2,526]

The last few games they’ve just been so much faster and more intense than us. That can’t happen again

Unfortunately we've looked scared of them again recently we need to make sure that does not happen on Monday.

Wow, lost your sense of humour.

One things for sure Ryan Jack should be nowhere near the team on Monday 

We’ll need to take our chances when they open up, can’t have him slowing everything down

Roofe is just a shambles, he's a complete lost cause

Colak not even being on the bench is worrying, can't understand that unless he's miles away which doesn't make sense given Beale's comments

[BlueboyG 5,241]

Any news on Morelos? Apologies if I've missed it.

Who replaces him though? Because him and Lundstram should both be nowhere near but one of them plays and I’d take Jack over Lundstram 

[bluebell82 243]

My team for Monday:

                 McGregor 

Tav      Goldson   Davies    Borna 

          Kamara   Lundstrum

                   Tillman 

        Sakala              Kent 

                     Alfie 

I'd go with this line up with a view to going out on the front foot. Would need a shift from Tillman to ensure we're not overrun in the middle, but he's a game changer - so needs to be in. Debated putting Arfield on but he's prob better off the bench, same with Jack who can steady the ship if/when needed. 

We might as well go for broke, I'd rather go for it rather than try and stay in the game, so this line up doesn't leave much firepower off the bench - but might as well have it on the pitch.

It'll be Jack, Lundstram and Kamara.

None in any sort of form.

[Loyal72 11,256]

If Ross Wilson is genuinely still in a job at the end of the season, wtf should we do?

[MacBoyd 5,484]

Ibrox needs to be a cauldron for this

I’d take Lundstram over him he can at least play forward and have a shot from distance. Cant see any upside to Jack playing at all 

[Colin Traive 22,854]

Any confidence I have comes from the fact that our chances are decidedly better with Beale than going into Monday with Gio van Horseshoe still here.

McGregor plus defence picks itself and Tillman/Kent behind Morelos also is a cert imo, assuming all are fit.

The three in the middle will probably be Jack, Kamara and Lundstram with Arfield, Lowry, Sakala, possibly Roofe, possibly Colak the main threats off the bench.

One request - please keep Matondo in the stand.

[KaiserJon 12,404]

Hoping I can go back X years where we are absolutely written off and then do them 👍

[Rowley Birkin 8,791]

wouldn't be surprised is sands is back in at defensive midfield

When I see this, how Jack is fit and slim, Kent's movements, I wish we can get back to this.

Come one The Famous. 

Yes please 

[DerekJohnstone 1,173]

If we ain't fighting/in their faces them in the Tunnel before KO, half-time and full-time we ain't winning. We have to do something to upset their Rhythm/comfort zone. 

I fear the worse and think we'll shrink into our shells and just try to keep the score down.

I am hopeful we can get an early goal (first 10 mins) then just shut up shop - I know it sounds defeatist but they have a much better bench and if we push the game, we risk injury or fatigue - their subs could destroy us but if we are careful, we can keep the initial 11 on the job for 75 minutes and bring on a couple of subs to shore up more, later on - frustrate the hell out of them and watch them unravel as 50,000 bears start the party

It would be revenge of sorts I suppose

[scottyc06 6,915]

Weeeeeeeeeeee don’t need McNeil or Hay…

Asked Wully in the RSC Section but any buses going from the East End/Camby with space for two let me know!

it will be, but needs to continue being if we go behind.  Let's just create an atmosphere of complete intimidation, mocking their every misplaced pass, abusing every one of them taking a throw-in or comer, never letting up, letting all our players know that the cry is No Surrender.
