It really does help to have winners medals. Football managers want to buy winners. I can't believe that you need help with this. Not sure what three players you are talking about.

How often does Arfield start? He is in squad rotation. Please accept this fact.

I think that they might field a weak team. Relying on Bitton in midfield I think. Now even he will be suspended. That's the only thing that gives me cause for optimism. I'll be overjoyed if we get a result but I'll also worry that beating a weakened team, in an important match, will paper over the cracks for us.

I don't think that this is something to feel too good about. We were in this position earlier in the season and I realised then that this was deceptive. We have played Celtic once at home and beat them. If the old firm matches are all won by the home team and both teams replicate previous form against the rest of the league then Celtic will win the league. Our record against the rest of the league is worse than Celtic's record against the rest of the league. This has happened despite Celtic having one of the worst ever starts to a league campaign. The positive is that we have a group of talented players and a promising manager. The players have acted like losers and frittered away a lead instead of turning the screw. We know that our players have another level or two that they can go up. The question is will they do so because now we are in a position where they absolutely need to.

Celtic sold two players, that I can think of just now, last summer. The fees were undisclosed but both reportedly 8 figure fees. One of them had nine winners medals whereas the other had seven.

It wavers all the time. I'll start alerting you to it every time I notice it. I don't know anything more than what people announce in public. If the person sitting next to me mentioned that 45 pound was a lot then I would give him, or her, some free advice. Can you guess what it is?

I don't agree with this on Jack and Arfield. Arfield is clearly squad rotation and has been for some time. Jack is never fit so it is highly unlikely that any manager will plan for him to be a starter. Accept it and move on. Davis has started far more often than I expected this season. Even so he is an old man and we should be moving on. Even if the manager considers him a starter for the rest of the season.

The only thing that is unsustainable is rushing out to spend money in January after four dropped points. I have to laugh about the 'unwavering financial support'. The fans do a lot to support the club but lets not forget recent events. Just the other week the club postponed a payment deadline for tickets. This happened because the usual selection of knicker wetters were sobbing about not having 45 pound prior to payday. Support was wavering and the same complaints emerge every time something can be paid for.

McGregor and Goldson are regular starters. Two of them. Only one of which we should try to keep.

Celtic sold players from a position of success on the pitch and Champions League experience. We have very little recent success and played in the Europa League. Accept that we still have some way to go before anyone can say we have failed with player trading.

It's pretty obvious that the money is being used to cover the costs of wages. Who said you shouldn't question them? Just don't do so with complete nonsense. Are you looking for more info than you get from the A.G.M.? Who is out of contract? I can think of Goldson, Arfield, Jack and Katic. I would guess Davis and McGregor too. It's desirable for many of them to move on.

We should make a loan signing if we can find another that will improve the first eleven. The board have been covering losses for years so it's complete nonsense to question their appetite.

I'm surprised to find that I'm still optimistic about that match. Sadly we are now in a position where we need a result.

Somebody please tell the Rangers players.

It is my understanding that the talks went as follows: Rangers: It turns out that Kevin Clancy is rubbish. S.F.A.: This is very surprising.

It will be the 'end of the world' if we finish a couple of points behind Celtic.

Meanwhile our good form is interrupted and dropped points follow. Anybody still ok with moving the winter break for no real reason?

Aberdeen 0 Rangers 2 First goal scorer: Wright

Now that Defoe is gone we need to figure out new things to say when Morelos stops scoring. I'll miss reading rubbish about how we need Defoe on the pitch or about how he should have coached Morelos to be great finisher.

Not sure what you base that on. His league scoring record is very good this season.

It couldn't be justified before. The increased scope can't be justified after witnessing it in action. Who votes for this?

Is there any evidence that vaccine passports are effective yet?
