Hair of the Dog – Motherwell Awaits

In the Press:
Bobo Balde sidelined for season, courtesy of The Daily Record.
If defensive woes weren’t already copious enough, Bobo Balde is done for the season, joining defensive Gary Cadwell and Mark Wilson, both Strachan’s would-be first picks to stand in the backline. Celtic will look to young talents, most likely Darren O’Dea or John Kennedy, [...]

In the recent Scotsman, referee Kenny Clark, one to the presiding officials of last Sunday’s Rangers/Celtic match, admitted his error in not awarding Hoops a deserved penalty, when Neil Lennon was taken down in the box by Gers’ Steven Smith.

Hair of the Dog – More Old Firm Review

By: Cham | Comments 2 Comments

Many, like ‘Champagne Charlie’ Nicholas, consider avoiding the top British teams (Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, and Manchester United) a huge relief.
