Starting line-up - I don't really know. Will he play the kids like he did against Carlisle? Or will it have a more first-team look?

 

Am I going - I'd love to, unfortunately I'm 10000 miles away.

 

Score prediction - I'll go a 3-1 win.

Im going for a crowd of 30,000. Most people will be waiting for Juve, but also some will be tempted in by Sam's first home match.

 

Be interesting to see if we have any more new signings to unveil by then.

 

Which bars will have pre-match topless totty on?

I would guess at the usual suspects; Sam Jacks, Idols and The Vault.

Assuming that Owen, Barton, Emre, Baba, Taylor, Duff are all still injured. I'd probably start with:

 

                   Given

 

Geremi  Hunty  Roze  Edgar

 

Milner    Dyer   Butt   Zoggy

 

            Ameobi  Martins

 

 

Sorry edited to take out Viduka.

I think it's in the PL rules that players need a 4 week break before they can start playing so Viduka's miles away.

Will be a tough game but our first home game under Sam so I reckon we will come out flying.

 

--------------------Given

 

Geremi----Taylor--------Roze------Ramage

 

 

Milner------Dyer---------Butt--------Zoggy

 

 

------------Shola--------Martins

Are Taylor, Emre and Edgar (after the U20's WC) back in contention for this one? Working under the assumption they're not and that Dyer is leaving:

 

---------------------------Given

 

Solano------Rozehnal--------Ramage-------Carr

 

Milner---------Geremi----------Butt---------N'Zogbia

 

----------------Ameobi----------Martins

Milner        Solano      Butt        Luque

A lass told me Celtic are grtting 15000 tickets but 25000 are making the journey.  Anyone know anymore ???

25,000?? as in twenty five thousand?

Seriously doubt it like, and if there is, they really are treating this like a champions league match, like they seem to in all friendlies against english teams. Wonder how many of them need a day off work to make the match?!

 

I'd guess a max of 3k will make it.

 

Onto the previous poster - Kids are free, with an Adult ticket (£15). You can also get adult tickets in L7 for £10.

If the same players who missed the Carlisle game are still out, i'll start with

 

                                                      Krul

 

                                  Carr  Ramage  Rozenhal  Huntington

 

                                      Dyer  Geremi  Solano  N'Zogbia

 

                                                  Carroll    Martins

 

 

Subs:-

 

Harper

Lough *might be injured*

Pattison

Troisi

Bertram

Alex Francis

Martins----------------------Dyer

--------------Carroll--------------

Would people agree that his only fit "senior" players for this one would appear to be (and this is best-case scenario):

 

Given, Harper, Krul, Carr, Edgar, Ramage, Huntington, Rozehnal, N'Zogbia, Solano, Geremi, Milner, Butt, Dyer, Luque, Martins, Ameobi and Carroll?

 

Missing will definitely be:

 

Babayaro, Taylor, Barton, Duff, Emre, Owen and Viduka (all arguably current "first-choice" players!)

 

I'm not as thrilled about paying £15 for this game as I was a while ago, that's for sure.
