22/11/2024 : HAERTS V CELTIC (SCOTTISH PREMIERSHIP) SATURDAY 23rd NOVEMBER 2024
“We want more and that is our focus”...
HEARTS V CELTIC , SCOTTISH PREMIERSHIP, SATURDAY 23rd NOVEMBER - KICK-OFF @ 20:45
LIVE IN THE WILD ROVER (see WHERE-page)
We’re back after the international break, and no injury reports despite 13 players returning from international duty, but some encouraging performances from Engels and Bernardo will help confidence, while Scales managed a magnificent tackle and even got some time off in the second half against England.
Of course the big news and the quote above are about Alistair Johnston, who has signed an extension to 2029 with the club, securing his talents and workrate for the team. We’ll be playing Hearts who have a new coach in Neil Critchley, who had had a win to take them off the bottom of the table. He will still need to prove he can get a lot out of very little, or as he’s better known, Lawrence Shankland.
Important match in another big week for the Bhoys, with some passionate and noisy Belgians about to head to Celtic Park for the Champions League match, and they’ll be joined by Club Brugge fans.
Hail! Hail!

Up against the mighty sheep…
CELTIC V ABERDEEN, SCOTTISH LEAGUE CUP SEMI-FINAL, SATURDAY 2nd NOVEMBER - KICK-OFF @ 18:30
LIVE IN THE WILD ROVER (see WHERE-page)
Celtic are at Hampden this afternoon, facing Aberdeen who are the only other unbeaten team in Scotland this season, and who showed spirit and studs to earn a 2-2 draw at Celtic Park a few weeks ago. Their midweek win will have buoyed them, but we’re Bhoyed by the return of Cameron Carter-Vickers, Calum McGregor and Adam Idah.
Form will make this a nervy watch, but defence is the area which has improved greatly recently, and goals seem to be available across the squad. A win today and we’re in our first final of the year.

CELTIC V DUNDEE , SPFL, WEDNESDAY, 30th OCTOBER - KICK-OFF @ 20:45
LIVE IN THE WILD ROVER (see WHERE-page)
We're back to Celtic Park for tonight's game, which may once again provide some squad game time. CCV and Taylor started on the bench, while Johnston was strong Captain.
Dundee are struggling and may not welcome scoring talisman McCowan in the opposition colours. A good chance to score points with 2nd v 3rd playing at Pittodrie.

Another tough away trip…
ATALANTA BERGAMO V CELTIC, UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE, LEAGUE STAGE, WEDNESDAY 23rd OCTOBER - KICK-OFF @ 18:45
LIVE IN THE WILD ROVER (see WHERE-page)
Our third match of the League Stage, and the massive swinging pendulum should hopefully be less dramatic, or at least less dramatically against us after a huge win and a bigger loss. We’re away in Italy to a team that also scores big and concedes big, and who will cause us all to take a deep breath.
Brendan Rodgers is unlikely to change his philosophy, even without the injured CCV, so we cross everything and hope this is where we see a new European Celtic.
We’re in the Wild Rover for all the European nights!

Changing the tune?
BORUSSIA DORTMUND V CELTIC, UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE, LEAGUE STAGE, TUESDAY 1st OCTOBER - KICK-OFF @ 21:00
LIVE IN THE WILD ROVER (see WHERE-page)
We’re in a different league now, literally rather than the figurative version of it we saw on Saturday evening, but the Bhoys head to Dortmund with some confidence that we can take our game to the next level. We’ll certainly be hoping for a new tune on the road having never won away from home against a German side. Injury will mean Cameron Carter-Vickers won’t be available, so the Bhoys will need a top performance.
Dortmund are a big team with young talents including their latest English find Jamie Gittens, but coach Nuri Sahin has also changed his tune on the influence Brendan Rodgers had on his career, having once criticised him for playing him out of position at Liverpool, calling him tactically very strong, and praising the ‘very smart’ Kyogo. This will be a big test with good players for this Celtic Team.
We go again in the Wild Rover!

ST JOHNSTONE V CELTIC , SPFL, SATURDAY 28th SEPTEMBER - KICK-OFF @ 18:45
LIVE IN THE WILD ROVER (see WHERE-page)
Off to Perth we go, and to currently managerless St. Johnstone. Andy Kirk took over for the 3-3 draw against Ross County. Brendan will take a side looking for another win, but ahead of the Champions League encounter, may wish to continue with some fringe men who gained pass marks against Falkirk, notably Trusty, Bernardo and Idah. Johnston and Carter-Vickers are the most likely to be rested.
A late kick off may not suit Brendan, but does suit the cameras, so we’re on again in the Wild Rover.

CELTIC V FALKIRK, SCOTTISH LEAGUE CUP, QUARTER FINAL, SUNDAY 22nd SEPTEMBER - KICK-OFF @ 16:00
LIVE IN THE WILD ROVER (see WHERE-page)
We’re back in League Cup action on Sunday, after a thrilling midweek performance and response in the Champions League. Brendan may see this as an opportunity for game time for some of the squad, notably McCowan, Trusty and Idah. A win will still be the aim and expectation, and progression to the semi finals in early November.
Falkirk are not to be taken lightly. They have won eight of their past nine outings and lead the Championship, with some real talent including Dylan Tait and former Celt Calvin Miller in their ranks.
We’re on, as we will be for every match, through any mechanism possible (last Saturday it was Hearts TV) in the Wild Rover.

European nights are back…
CELTIC V SLOVAN BRATISLAVA, UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE, LEAGUE STAGE, WEDNESDAY 18th SEPTEMBER - KICK-OFF @ 21:00
LIVE IN THE WILD ROVER (see WHERE-page)
It’s been a while, but nobody wants the qualifiers, least of all tonight’s opponents, Slovan Bratislava. The Slovaks make their way to our opening match of the Champions League campaign after their own four qualification matches, beating Midjtylland to make it to this stage. They are top of the Fortuna Leage in Slovakia but managed a 5-0 loss to 2nd placed MSK Zilna before the international break. They have some players who’ve been seen on bigger stages, and many Celtic fans will remember both Wladimir Weiss Sr. (Artmedia manager in 2005) and Jr, wo played for a former Glasgow club before their liquidation. He’s still playing at 34 and joined by Armenia international Tigran Barseghyan up front and Gurma Kashia of the impressive Georgians in defence.
The Slovakians will be regarded as underdogs, which may not help keep nerves calm, but the preseason and new season form of Brendan Rodgers’ team should help allay fears. No fitness concerns to note, and with new signings playing and scoring at the weekend, and a high-tempo approach, this is a new and welcome test for the Bhoys.
We’re in the Wild Rover for all the European nights ahead!

Back to domestic football…
CELTIC V HEART OF MIDLOTHIAN, SPFL, SATURDAY 14th SEPTEMBER - KICK-OFF @ 16:00
LIVE IN THE WILD ROVER (see WHERE-page)
We’re back to Celtic Park for the visit of the currently 11th placed team in the league, Hearts. Something of a bogey team, who beat Celtic twice last season, current form does not suggest that they are quite the force they have been, coming off 6 consecutive losses.
Nevertheless, Brendan Rodgers will still look to continue their own form, and perhaps protect some players such as Carter-Vickers and Johnston carrying light knocks, so there may be changes in personnel with a view to Champions League games. No major fitness doubts, and Engels, McCowan and Trusty will be looking for league game time, although Bernardo may have some say after scoring in the international break.
We’re confirmed even though it’s a normal kick off with the game streamed in the Wild Rover.

LIVE IN THE WILD ROVER (see WHERE-page)
The words of our latest midfield signings, Luke McCowan and Arne Engels, on their first steps onto the Celtic Park as a Celtic Player and on the Glasgow Derby respectively. Neither will have had much sleep or get much time to train ahead of tomorrow’s game, but along with US centre back Auston Trusty and Alex Valle who signed earlier in the week, all 4 are likely to make the matchday squad for the visit of the Rangers team who have also dipped into the transfer market.
No other injuries to report, as the side that started the season strongly will be close to last week’s lineup, and the new signings will take the place of the departed Matt O’Riley, Tomoki Iwata and Mikey Johnston. Brendan Rodgers won’t take the game lightly ahead of the international break and the newly announced European fixtures, confirmed as follows:
Wednesday, September 18 | Celtic v Slovan Bratislava
Tuesday, October 1 | Borussia Dortmund v Celtic
Wednesday, October 23 | Atalanta v Celtic
Tuesday, November 5 | Celtic v RB Leipzig
Wednesday, November 27 | Celtic v Club Brugge

Strong words by Brendan Rodgers ahead of the visit to Paisley for our next league match against St Mirren, who have posed some problems in recent seasons, and nobody mention Tony Mowbray’s managerial stint. We’re likely to be with the Seagulls-bound Matt O’Riley, as it’s reported that Brighton & Hove Albion are breaking the Scottish transfer record to sign Celtic’s Player of the Year. New signings or a mutiny will be expected to bring us up to strength, but we have some new(ish) faces in, but later in our dealings to the frustration of many fans.
No new updates on the squad, but Kyogo will once again be available.
The game goes on, and we’ll be in our usual spot.

We’re facing last week’s opponents, Hibernian, who were so roundly beaten in 2-0 going on 10 that they immediately decided to loan a player who didn’t make the squad. Kwon won’t be eligible, but the newly re-signed Adam Idah will come into contention. Brendan may go with the same lineup again, checking injuries on a few players including subbed sub Mikey Johnston.
We’ll be looking for the same again, but more goals after 19 minutes than last week to be able to give some players more game time if possible, and the Hibees ability to play 70 minutes without conceding to this Celtic team means there will be no room for complacency.
We go again!

We’re off and running today for the new season, and in fairly upbeat mode, with a preseason that perhaps hasn’t had many incoming, but few outgoings either. Mikey Johnston has returned to the fold, and may start today, while Kasper Schmeichel slots straight in for his retired former Manchester City teammate Joe Hart, having shown he’s lost none of his edge.
A new edge was perceived in preseason for Nicholas Kuhn and Kyogo, both of whom may start, but the game may be too early for Alistair Johnston after featuring in the Copa America team of the tournament, or the returning permanently Paolo Bernardo.
It will be good to make a positive start. See you there!
