I'm sure Secvo fans will have an objection as well.

No referree would have been acceptable to either side.
They'll be partying, a Sevco fan who's brother played for them and Northern Ireland. Who has a long list of shocking decisions against Celtic.

They couldnt a picked a more biased ref out the stands themselves.

Celtic have only won 4 of the last 10 games he refereed.

What if he sways the game by booking Celtic players, constantly giving fouls against us for nothing, turns blind eyes to penalty claims, allows Sevco to put the boot in, gives Sevco penalties for dives, sends off a Celtic player for nothing etc all of which he's done before against Celtic.

Like he sent of Majstorovic for a pefectly good tackle in a home game against Inverness. He turned a blind eye to Josh Meekings hand ball, which would have been a penalty and red card at Hampden. He turned down two penalties for Celtic in an away game against Motherwell, one where Pukki was tripped and another when there was a handball from a Brown cross. He awarded Motherwell a penalty against Celtic when Jamie Murphy dived into Kelvin Wilson from about 3 yards away.

He's absolutley detested by our fans and for good reason, him and Bobby Madden for definite should not be allowed nowhere near Celtic matches. They just constantly swing games in the oppositions favour with clear bias.

So a win for Celtic on Saturday will mean a mere 19 point lead and a game in hand before the winter break. Celtic could potentially be 22 points clear before Rangers next league game at end of January.

Wonder how early we will win the League, whats the earliest it's ever been won? could possibly be done with about 10 games to go this season, would only need a 31 point cushion by 10 games to go which i'd guess could be February?

Can't remember a season when the leaders have been so consistent 18 wins from 19 and the runner up teams so poor, think they've only won half their games at most. Usually even in past seasons Aberdeen and Motherwell in 2nd would have had more wins.

In the last 10 years, Sevco would only be sitting 2nd in one other season with the points they have, the 2012-13 season.

Brendan has confirmed Rogic will miss the next match. Disappointing as he'd have tore them apart but we could put Roberts in the middle or play Griffiths in there, also an option to bring in Bitton in and move Armstrong in there so it shouldn't really matter. Not sure what i'd prefer myself, I think I would opt for Roberts or Griffiths as I could see them scoring goals.

Another dominant performance by Celtic as the slump continues and we extend our lead at the top of the table.

On to Saturday, given the gap it really is a bit of a meh game. There isn't really any bragging rights up for grabs. Sure I'd like to go the league season undefeated but I don't think it'll happen and it isn't really all that important in the grand scheme of things.

Scottish Premiership needs Rangers:

After Xmas fixtures 2014 - 1st Celtic, 39 pts - 2nd Aberdeen, 37 pts - Celtic with 2 point lead
After Xmas fixtures 2015 - 1st Celtic, 43 pts - 2nd Aberdeen, 42 pts - Celtic with 1 point lead and game in hand

2016 - 1st Celtic, 55 pts - 2nd Rangers 39 pts - Celtic with 16 point lead and a game in hand.

Wonder if the media will be changing it's tune anytime soon.

Interesting stats there.

The dear departed Franco was never slow in telling us that the Celtic team under Deila was the worst in history yet the team he supports would be behind the points total of both Celtic and Aberdeen last season.

Can't wait for the moral high ground brigade tomorrow should a Celtic fan cough in the Broomloan.

I expect Celtic to win. Hopefully the nastiness will be kept to a minimum.

You never know, remember the Ibrox game you were supposed to win easily or the League Cup final we were supposed to stroll?

As for your second point, I agree but we all know what is going to happen in reality. It is all very predictable unfortunately.

Kiernan offered a 2 game ban for his punch on Wednesday night.

Where are you heading? My mate swears by the Revolut card when he is going to the Eurozone.

Happy New Year to you as well.

BT Sport on FB live was hilarious with Sutton saying if Celtic win then the Rangers v Partick derby will become the relevant derby at Ibrox.

Stevehun McLean doing the Celtic game at Ibrox. Revolting.
Biased to us?. You should have been at the Aberdeen game. Utterly shocking performance. As bad a ref as I have ever seen.

The SPL needs a strong Rangers in the long run, for the leagues sake and to challenge Celtic. And others will raise their games to try and challenge the Old Firm.
By that 'logic', the EPL doesnt 'really need' Man U. Because Jose is blowing a bit hot and cold this season.

If ever there was any doubt, could you imagine this on Sky Sports SPFL coverage?

A good 3 points for Aberdeen tonight.

That's 3 wins in a row for them so they'll be gutted at the timing of the winter break.
