Delighted to be sitting in second with two to play, but I'm under no illusions, any of the teams below could easily leapfrog us. Hearts are hanging on in the Elite but their squad looks like it would struggle in Div 1 - how have they managed to win 3 games already? But match day 4 looks like our best chance of banking more points.

Massive test of our form against fellow form setters Celtic, also another test of my Elite status suitability, honestly expect a taste of what's to come from this match if I get promoted again, 2-0 to Celtic is my guess.
Looking at the teams and I'd say were better on paper apart from Stu's monstrous strikers, mines aren't too bad though.
Hoping we can shock Celtic and send a wee message out that we can win at a higher level, fingers crossed.

Giving serious thought to deploying the 3 up front, our scouts say Barca rarely play anything but 1 up front. Good luck Bryn.

Liverpool v Arsenal and The Old firm game definite highlights, all bang in form teams.

Would be nice to get something out this game but Santos FC are doing well and scoring goals, oh wait we just recently beat them so there is hope, really big round of matches this midweek

Who doesn't love an old firm game! Think this is going to be one of our toughest games of the season as like us Rangers are in form and have squad that should be challenging in the Elite League rather than Division 1. A win for them wouldn't be a shock result and it will be interesting to see if Gazza goes for it as he's done in the league this season using what seems his favoured 442 P or changes his style and plays a more defensive game. My money is on a 541 with either C, N or D tactic. Good luck Gazza!

Don't need to 'go for it' Stu, a point would be awesome, so 5 at the back is sensible. Bragging rights are also nice though in the Old firm games whatever guise they come in lol
