With the exception of our European debacles, the football so far this term has been promising with our creative play screaming out for a goal scorer. In sods law fashion we sign poacher Stokes just as poacher Hooper returns from injury. So who’ll get the nod? What will the line up be? Don’t care, just as long as we win and hopefully win well.
A review of the past few seasons for our results against most teams in the SPL looks a bit like this with tight games with Celtic just coming out on top. It’s time for this new Lennon generation to dominate.
Prediction
Celtic 3 – 0 Hearts (17/2)
(evens) Dundee Utd. (12/5) Aberdeen (13/5)
The New firm! We keep going on about the lack of real competition in Scottish football but in my 40 years, with the exception of a 5 year window involving these two, the status quo has prevailed.
Prediction
Dundee Utd 1 -1 Aberdeen (5/1)
(15/2) Hamilton (7/2) Rangers (4/11)
Rangers have their smashing trip to Manchester on Tuesday which may affect them, but it’s more likely to be next week following the gabbing they will no doubt receive.
Prediction
Hamilton 0 – 2 Rangers (11/2)
(4/5) Hibs (5/2) Inverness C T (10/3)
Hibs haven’t won at home since March
Prediction
Hibs 1 – 1 Inverness (11/2)
(11/10) Kilmarnock (23/10) St Mirren (12/5)
Who cares?
Prediction
Killie 2 – 1 St Mirren (8/1)
(7/5) St Johnstone (12/5) Motherwell (7/4)
Again….who cares.
Prediction
St Johnstone 1 – 2 Motherwell (9/1)

So there we have it. Let’s thump the Hearts and have some “thunder” because what’s the point about whinging about the state of Scottish Football. With the exception of a couple of good seasons in Europe from us and Rangers, it’s been rubbish for over 15 years. Just ask yourself when the last time one of the other teams did ANYTHING in Europe?
