The international break is always a drag, but this month it seems to be played out just that little bit longer.
This is the second international break of the season which has halted Celtic when they started to gain momentum.
Before the September break, Celtic beat Steven Gerrard’s men 1-0 at Celtic Park and sent an Ibrox side high on bluster homewards to think again.
This month, with Celtic struggling for form and eeking out results, the bhoys absolutely smashed St Johnstone in a six-goal demolition.
This gave the Celtic team an incredible boost but with the International break kicking in and the subsequent misuse of some of our Scottish stars since – the confidence levels won’t be as high.
It will be up to Brendan Rodgers to rally his travelling stars when they return to training this week.
Celtic have a massive game against Neil Lennon’s Hibs side on Saturday and it’s a mouthwatering prospect when you take into account the match is heading for a sell-out.
With no ‘proper’ football since last Sunday, Celtic fans are desperate to see the bhoys kick on and Hibs present a very real obstacle to getting back to the summit of the SPFL.
When the game kicks off at 3 pm on Saturday there will be a collective sigh of relief from the Celtic fans and hopefully, another good performance will build on our St Johnstone rout.
Totally correct I loathe these breaks!!I detest international football with a passion Celtic CELTIC and CELTIC! !Nothing else matters to 99%Tims .Oh and let’s be honest appart from tournaments which “shortbread”never make it a joke and onlyou suits the self proclaimed “diddy club”fans who nearly all attack our GREAT CLUB!and ouracist players at the drop of a hat and we know why and it’s always been thus.I hope this situation can change back tI midweek games and no break!!HAIL HAIL TREBLE! TREBLE ON THE WAY!
Few typos but you get me lads
I love football and regularly attend ganes in Ireland and England, as well as at Celtic of course, but as per above, international football does nothing for me and simply interrupts the real stuff. Roll on Saturday
