so its the final derby of the season. possibly the title decider with rangers only 1 point behind. should be a great game.
lets hope smith realises that its celtic we have to beat to win the league!
im going for 2-1 boyd and davis

Rangers have to go 4-4-2 or risk the wrath of the fans by dropping 2 in form strikers.
We'll probably stick with Jan and Skippy and play Hartley in beside Crosas if Robson isn't fit.
Think it'll end up 1-1.

Should be a fantastic game! Hoping Smith goes on the attack, if not I'm going to petrol bomb his wife.

Hopefully its an awesome game because the previous couple have been slightly disappointing! Potential title decider though so both teams should be going for it! half 12 kick off again so going to have to get up early again and get the beers down me  Mon the hoops!

I'm nervy about this one, I'm going to say Rangers will drop one of Boyd or Velicka, Velicka has scored against Celtic for Hearts, Boyd has a well publicised lack of goals against them so who knows, on sundays performance Boydie gets the nod for me. It will be tight, I doubt Smith will attack so iI reckon 1 nil. don't have a clue what way it will go though!

can see this being a cracker of a game.
Celtic are going to miss Brown badly in this game
Might even see Maloney coming back from injury - played reserve game other day there and scored.
Smith MUST go on the attack with Rangers if he hopes to get anything from the game - anything but a win and i doubt they'll have a sniff at the league after that.
I'm going for 2-2 draw on the day and a couple red cards, Celtic to win there last 3 games and clinch 4 in a row (Dundee Utd home, Hibs away, Hearts home)
rangers will then throw away the scottish cup to Falkirk after they fight relegation and stay up! They will be hugely pumped for the game!!!

Think you are correct there, If we win we will drop points at tannadice imo. Also think Celtic might struggle at home to Dundee and Hearts. Tough games left, so by no means decides the title, could see a helicopter Sunday repeat

If I were you I'd be praying Broadfoot gets back if its a toss up between him and Dailly.

Broadfoot has been our most consistant defender this season, it bugs me when people are constantly on his back!!! He made one mistake in the last Old Firm game which McDonald punished him for, had he made the same challenge at RB where he has played the majority of the season prior to injury he would have got away with it.
IMO he can't return quick enough!!!

So he is not up for sale. He is far from "aweful" he has been our most consistant defender, the guy never gives less than 100%, he would die for that jersey. With regards to Whittaker, he is a better footballer, however he is guilty of going missing in games. Broadfoot never hides away, and he can tackle which is a lot more than can be said for Whittaker if there is a 50-50 ball.

In flashes he looks like Ronaldo then in flashes he looks like Sebo. He'll score a 50 yard volley then fall on his arse at the back and let a goal in.

Broadfoot has came on leaps and bounds aound actually does a decent job for us. As you said Paul, Whittaker can have a Pelé moment then become Basil Boli, he's so inconsistent

I think he is consistant, whittaker isn't. And I don't see any other real options in that position, the only thing Broadfoot has ever really done wrong is be Alan Huttons replacement. Before he had even kicked a ball at RB he wasn't going to be as good as Hutton and I feel he has been victimised by wrongly by the fans. If you sit and watch him he does everything right, he sometimes doesn't have the ability to carry it off but hes a tryer. And god loves a tryer, and as a matter of fact so do I
Back on topic though, I'm starting to get quite a bad feeling about tomorrow

Let every man and his dog train with a professional football club for almost 2 years and pay him 5-8 grand a week and I'm sure they will come on leaps and bounds as well! I'm not saying that everyone of Celtics players are fantastic but Rangers made a big mistake buying Broadfoot. He was AVERAGE at best when he played for St.Mirren so God knows why Rangers thought he would be good for them
