    Celtic -V- Inverness CT - SPFL

      Teaser Paragraph:

    Treble Party Poopers

     

     

     

     

    Cup finaIists Inverness have an invite to the Champions party this Sunday as we take on treble double winners Celtic at Parkhead. We might not be the most popular of guests having thwarted the Hoops in their bid for the treble.

     

    It's been a fabulous season for Inverness with lots of firsts achieved this season. Qualification for the Europa league, Scottish Cup final, highest points tally in Premier League, Manager of the Year for Yogi and Young Player of the Year for Ryan Christie. There are many more trotted out on CTO, but these are massive, and just reward for everybody concerned with Inverness Caledonian Thistle from the tea lady to the Chairman, the Twitter Account to the Facebook page, the youths who paraded their trophy at the Dundee United game and to all the players who pulled on the shirt this season. I nearly forgot the most important ones, and that's the fans who have followed our team through thick and thin. :ictscarf:

     

    Yes, there were plenty of concerned punters when John Hughes took over as Caley Jags boss, but I'll tell you what, he has had worse seasons. Massive credit to Yogi and Russell Latapy for changing the way we played our football and winning over the fans. And it's wonderful to see our manager and our players get the recognition they deserve from their peers and the people who write about our national sport.

     

    On to the task in hand and it's always a troublesome trip to Parkhead on the day the Celts are parading their trophies. The party atmosphere always inspires them to greater things and many a side have been routed on this day. The bonus for us is that while it would be nice to engage them competitively, It is neither here nor there what the result is on the day as we have bigger fish to fry the weekend after.

     

    With that in mind, I would expect Hughes to change his side to remain competitive, but to protect his stars from any damage.

     

    Team news this week is not worth the paper it's not written on. We all know that Richie Foran and Dean Brill are out, but that's the only thing we can guarantee. My best guess is that Yogi will alter the structure of his team to ensure that he can maximise his options next week.

    Celtic, well they are out to celebrate and it matters not a jot who they put out against us, cos we are playing next week and you're not. :nanananana:

     

    Apologies to anyone that is looking for some clarification on team selections, but next week is our time.

     

    tm4tj prediction:- I reckon we will get pumped. Am I bothered. No, roll on the Scottish Cup Final.

    If we do get pumped, Manfer, it might reduce the
    hostility from the club and their fans.There's
    always a silver lining,like.  SMILE.

    Ironic, insightful post though!
