I know most of you will not care one bit but the Scottish Premier League starts it's new season 08/09 this weekend. Celtic play St Mirren on Sunday and are aiming to win the league for the 4th consecutive time! Their biggest rivals, Rangers, have been knocked out of Europe already and are desperate to win the league to keep their disgruntled, and largely ugly, fan base happy. Aberdeen, Dundee Utd, Hearts and Motherwell seem to be the perennial "also rans" in this league but you never know, one of them may have a good enough run to pip Rangers to second spot. I will give you selected highlights of Celtic's progress as the season starts.
I have added a poll to see if you can predict who will win the Scottish Premier League, go ahead and vote!
In other news.....congratulations to Jody, or as we should now call him, Tenbrinhosa, for winning the midfielder of the summer season vote with a narrow one point victory of Roniildo! Fribeca came in third even though he did not vote for himself......
Well, Celtic won their first game of the season 1-0 in a lucklustre performance against St Mirren at Celtic Park. Robson scored from the penatly spot. Three points are still three points regardless of how you achieve them so i'm glad that's how they have started the season!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the support.....I'll try to show up for more games in the fall
ReplyDeleteto try to prove worthy of your votes!!
Hmmmm....maybe you shouldn't show up more. Maybe THAT'S why you received all the votes you did! lol
ReplyDeleteif that's the case then Hamid will win defender of the year.....!
ReplyDeleteI don't know. I was MIA even when I showed up and I did not win anything...
ReplyDelete...i think you would win a referee of the year award..........if we had one
ReplyDeleteSince it was a close tie between Jody and Ron....we should have them play next to each other all the time....hopefully they won't be fighting with each other
ReplyDeleteyou DID score 5 goals and allow only 1 (questionable) goal in my short 45 min career as referee.
ReplyDeleteyes, that's what i call a great referee, although you could have rounded things off by red carding a couple of them :-)
ReplyDeleteOK, who's the joker that voted for Hearts?
ReplyDeletejust back from the UK..and glad to see the huge voting that makes Celtic your most likely team to win the league! Maybe try this for the English league?
