"Their can be no true despair without hope"
Happy New Year Bhoys and Ghirls and if anyone is nursing a hangover today at least they are safe in the knowledge that all is right in the world again. Celtic met their newest rivals at Ibrox yesterday and what followed was a tremendous game of football that eventually saw the good guys come out on top with a 2-1 victory. Perhaps the most pleasing aspect of the scoreline was the manner in which it was achieved with Rangers actually going ahead, leading to their fans hopes rising faster than a mason ref up the Scottish football ranks. Just as all good stories do, it inevitably ended with the heroes coming back from the brink and successfully winning the day.
Is there something in the water down Ibrox way at the moment? I only ask because the last few days have seen some unparalleled levels of absolute nonsense emanate from that direction and you have to wonder if the three involved are giving each other a wink and a nudge everytime one trumps the other for sheer idiocy. Seriously as hard as it is to believe, the comments in the past few days may be the pinnacle of Sevco buffoonery and dare I say that our three subjects have actually managed to make Derek Johnstone look intelligent and informed. Where have we seen this movie before? Hmmm how about everytime we are due to play them? If you've not heard the comments from Kris Boyd, Mark Warburton and Le Hodson then prepare yourself for an early Christmas gift of some classic Sevco delusion wrapped up in a neat little bow.
