A Legend returns, we are still too strong for Celtic IMO. The midweek derby will be interesting on the 23rd.

Is Rangers v East Stirling a derby now?

Old Firm been cancelled with no feasible date for playing it in the near future.

I'd be very surprised if Celtic were to win the league this year now, but it's not out of the question.

In only one season out of the last seven have Rangers been ahead for a significant stretch in the new year. If that lead gets no more than the real four point gap at present, then the pressure could tell.

As stated months ago, both teams drop far more points than they used to three or four years ago. In a tricky game these days, away from home, you almost expect the big two to slip up now.

Should Celtic drop seven behind, then it's hard to see a way back.

I notice the Celtic absence on here, when they aren't p*ssing the league.

They’re probably all at mass.

Or chasing young boys

And if I never I needed concrete evidence over which side of the fence was more bigoted ever again, you're just the man to see.

According to E.E. it is Dundee United fans who play the bigot card the most.

Well, me anyway. Which is puzzling.

Yes Definately, Henrik Larsson is rumoured to be joining us on loan.

It will not be "the 2nd coming" of King Henrik as he has signed a new deal with Helsingborgs.

I'm glad about that. There is nothing worse than a returning legend making a berk of himself and tainting people's memory of him.

I agree with that. And I am also glad he is not coming back as he always treated my side really badly indeed! Still, it was a pleasure to see such a great player play in the SPL, even if he did plunder about 154 of his goals v United.

That has nothing to do with it, the speculation was after he signed his new contract and the deal would be to similar to the one which took him to Man United.

Can tell Celtic are panicing by attempting to sign Larsson, could be even more worrying if we pay £5.5 for McFadden.

Keep clutching at those straws.
