A few points.Rovers first eleven was resting less than 48 hours after winning a Europa League qualifier.

Celtic played their full strength team ahead of their first competitive game of the season this Friday.

I never said the League of Ireland had teams that could compete with Celtic over the season. I did say the League of Ireland has teams that compare favourably with the other dross teams in the SPFL,and this was further proven in the last week when Rangers and St Johnstone were unceremoniously knocked out of the Europa League while Shamrock Rovers and Cork City progressed. Yet many think a manager on £45k a week should be hoisted towards immortality because he managed to avoid defeat by dross SPFL teams for a whole season😥😥

Tony why dont you quit while you are behind. (

There is no League of Ireland team of size or stature similar to Celtic and no LoI side who have a squad in any way similar to Celtic's. He does have a point about the other teams though. Scottish football, apart from Celtic, is awful and I reckon at least 8 or 9 of the other 11 teams would have serious problems competing at conference level in England. A half decent team at that level, Tranmere say, would in all likelihood take apart a team like St. Johnstone and I don't see a great deal of difference between Tranmere and Cork or Dundalk. Celtic's achievement last year of going the entire football calendar unbeaten in domestic matches was serious going though and Rodgers did an excellent job of keeping the players motivated and focussed. Would Celtic romp away with the LoI title, certainly, but I doubt anyone other than Aberdeen from the rest would mount a serious title challenge. Rangers finished third and they're complete pish.

Well any of you guys heading to the game this evening?

I had thought about it but have decided against and will settle for the armchair view.

Just too much potential for knuckle draggers to be there to specifically hunt out any Celtic fan in attendance.

There's a fan zone sponsored by Belfast City Council

I see Celtic fans are now being asked to enter the ground via the Boucher road and will be directed into the KOP stand so will be able to openly support the team.  Will give the home fans someone to openly hate now apart from the 11 players on the park.

Bought them through the Linfield website I think. I'm hearing that the allocation Celtic didn't take were then sold on by Linfield themselves.

I think ticketmaster were sellign the tickets as well and you didn't have to specify which group of fans you belonged to.
