Guest Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Another tricky game. Motherwell are in a bit of form and McGoo would love to put one over us. Can't see Celtic dropping points at Killie so another win is essential here to keep it interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crilly Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 A lot will depend on who is or is not fit for us. We've got at least 4 players doubtful for the game or definitely out. Unfortunately 2 are right backs and the other two are central midfielders. So, fringe players may need to step up to the plate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Any chance of retrospective punishment for Scott Mcdonald for the weekends incident? That would be handy. Bought my ticket for this this morning. Difficult fixture again but we're capable of going there and winning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ya Bezzer! Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Another tricky game. Motherwell are in a bit of form and McGoo would love to put one over us.

Kilmarnock have been a bit of a bogey team for Celtic this season If it's any consolation I strongly fancy us to beat Celtic in a couple of weeks at Fir Park, if we can get some players back from injury. Think we will be missing a few on Saturday though, maybe 3 or 4 first teamers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williemillersmoustache Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I love a day out to Fir Park but it won't stop me bricking it the whole time as nervy 1nils are our specialty and my loathing of McGhee is only matched by his hatred of us.Any win will do.

capt_oats Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Even if McDonald was cited retrospectively chances are we'd appeal it so it's likely he'd be available. He had a red card for violent conduct downgraded to a yellow for 'recklessly dangerous play' against St Mirren at the tail end of last season and the incident was very similar to the one on Friday night. There's also the fact that with the Donaldson incident the ref had a clear and completely unobstructed view. Rightly or wrongly he just didn't there was anything in it.I don't know if any Ross County fans will read this but was Brian Graham cited retrospectively for his clotheslining of Talbot in the game against Dunfermline? It's a bit whataboutery on my part but if that one wasn't pulled up after the fact then I'd be surprised if McDonald's was, though without wanting to veer into OF-style paranoia there seems to have been a very media driven narrative that McDonald should/will be pulled up.As Crilly says it really depends on who's available and who isn't. Pearson's definitely out but Lasley was on Twitter last night saying his seemed to be a dead leg and he hoped it'd clear up soon, whether he's ready for Saturday is a different story.Worst case scenario that sees none of the players with knocks available and assuming McGhee keeps the same shape as the past few weeks we could be looking at a team along these lines;RipleyKennedy Hall McManus HammellCadden Gomis J.Leitch(or McDonald)Johnson Moult McDonald (or Thomas/McFadden) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Pikey Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 McGhee to scupper the Dandy Don's title hopes with a game plan enhanced greatly by his tactical astuteness. 2-1 to the Mighty Well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AR851903 Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 If Motherwell win, McGhee will say he just missed out on the Newcastle job to Benitez. Any win will do. Probably another 1 goal victory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cults_sheep Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Hope we win 9-0. McGhee won't mind after all, it's only 3 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex_14 Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I'm never confident when we play Motherwell away, but I think our record there is actually pretty good in recent times. 2-1 nervy away win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gianfranco Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I like our 3 upfront formation but Dundee United got joy in the wide areas in the first half and with the likes of Hayes, Shinnie and McGinn we may see a formation change. It could well be a forced formation change due to injury/suspension anyway. Both teams seem to be good at scoring from set pieces as well so I do think there will be goals. Personally I'd stick with the 3 upfront and I think we can sneak a draw. 2-2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MFC97 Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 2-1 to the Well with a double from Louis Moult! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cults_sheep Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 We seem to have found a knack of grinding out results, long may it continue. Bringing Barry Robson back into the fold has proved a masterstroke so far, he has been incredibly influential and his experience is vital if we are to push Celtic to the end. Think he also has 3 assists in 3 games? Reckon the team will be Brown Logan Reynolds Taylor Shinnie Jack Robson McLean McGinn Hayes Church Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamdunk Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 if 1-0 McDonald is 120/1 again I'll be on it. gould end up being ∞/1 tho if compliance officer gets involved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crilly Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I like our 3 upfront formation but Dundee United got joy in the wide areas in the first half As did St Johnstone and Accies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJC Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I don't fancy our chances atall in this one. With Pearson and McDonald out and the possibility of Lasley missing out aswell we are going to be going in with a pretty makeshift side and I reckon Aberdeen will have too much for us and will edge it 2-1.
