Celtic V Rangers The last Old Firm Derby as we know it?

the realpigiron

Hope it's a good one. Celtic have gone completely off the boil lately, having taken the foot off the gas when they realised they had won the league. They owe the fans a good performance after defeats in both Cup competitions. I also think (hope) there's going to be changes at Celtic, there will need to be if they are to make any kind of impact in Europe.

Kick off at 12:45.

Celtic team

Forster, Matthews, Loovens, Mulgrew, Izaguirre, Brown, Wanyama, Ledley, Commons, Samaras, Hooper

RoryMac

Happy enough with the team just hope they perform.

Jock Stein once said only an idiot would try to predict the result in a Celtic v Rangers game.....

So I'll go for 2-1 Celtic

Can't see past a Celtic win here, although with everything happening at Rangers it might just be the fixture to galvanise them and get them playing above their level

We won the first ever one on the 28th of May in 1888 5 - 2. I'd settle for that result today:).

Shocking defending.

DB21

Sweet Jesus, that was a header and a half by Mulgrew

The_Kew_Tour

Great goal in fairness.

Atmosphere that Celtic create is real joy it has to be said.

Jelle1880

One has to wonder what McCoist teaches them in training about defending, those corners are a real threat because nobody knows how to deal with them.

ollie1

Yesssss 2-0

LuckyLloyd

Super goal, real quality from Commons on the finish. Celtic are too strong, they could really put them to the sword here if they're interested.

RoryMac

Great first touch and finish by Commons!

Jelle1880

Game over, **** this.

PauloMN

Lovely from Hooper and brilliant finish from Commons. 2-0

A Dub in Glasgo

Lovely worked goal

Rampant now, owning the game.

DenMan

Lovely finish from Commons. Two to the good now. All Celtic right now.

Jelle1880

Bartley and Edu are shocking.

Mars Bar

What a goal by Commons! The first touch by the sideline, the pass, Commons first touch and the finish were all a work of art.

Dempsey

2-0 at HT, slow start from Celtic but Charlie's fantastic header changed the complexion of the game completely. Hopefully we can add another couple, a big win would be lovely in this last derby.

Ladjacket

had mulgrew first goal, also have celtic to win two nil and three nil. Fingers crossed!

Rangers players coming out, looking totally distraught.

Looks like at least 2 more Celtic goals then, no spine in this team today.

PauloMN

Here's the "Green and White" now, sounds fantastic.

PauloMN

Great strike from Ledley, great save from McGregor.

ollie1

Hooper 3-0

the realpigiron

Yeeeeeeeeeeeaaaahhhh Hooper

PauloMN

Hoooooooooooooooooooooooooperman!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 3-0

LuckyLloyd

This is an awesome display from Celtic. Sticking the boot in.

cantgetright

No stopping that..

Jelle1880

Brown really is a dirty thug.

Rangers fans still in good voice.

Bartley goes for Izzy's ankle, stay classy bud.

Theres a difference between walking on a foot and a stamp and I would need to see it again before deciding if it was intentional because I didnt see Brown looking down to see where Aluko's foot was to make sure he got it.

Jelle1880

He may not have looked, but you could see that he planted his foot extra hard.

Finally he gets a yellow, been at it all day
He's Celtic's Ian Black.

Pompey Magnus

Brown should be off at this stage, stupid tackle

Jelle1880

Ah well, 2-2 in Old Firms this season

**** game from us, Celtic deserved it but can't say I'm as angry as I usually am when we lose.

PauloMN

"Come on over to my place, we're having a party!"

Champions.

You can have your 10 points back now lol!
