On The Up!

I didn't get to either watch or listen to this game at the weekend but the result and match report suggest a team rich in Eastern Promise. Check out the link below for more details.

What I can say is that things are looking up with the arrival of Shunsuke Nakamura and the continuing goal scoring form of Messers Hartson and Beattie. All we need now are for a few other ducks to be broken. I'm sure that if Shaun Maloney and Maciej Zurawski can get on the score sheet we'll see more from them. Likewise Aliadiere and Sutton (when he gets over his injury). At this stage, we can surely mount a strong challenge to bring the league title back to Paradise.

I see mounting speculation that Bobo Balde will be leaving Celtic this week. On many occasions he has done very well for Celtic despite being guilty of more than his fair share of howlers, especially recently. I'm sad to say that we may now be better off without him so, if he does go, then good luck to him. I'm sure WGS will bring in someone who will perhaps be a better fit for the gap left behind - even if that person should turn out to be Chris Sutton (and I can't think of a more dependable member of the current squad to shore up the defence).

Next up, we play Falkirk at home. Mmm, they've made a good start to the season so let's hope they don't metamorphose into a banana skin....
