The Old Firm Revisited

It's been nearly a week now since the Rangers (i.e. the Huns) destroyed my Bhoys from Celtic in a 4-2 massacre at Parkhead. I knew Celtic would struggle due to a serious lack of creativity on offense, but allowing 4 goals at home? That is inexcusable!

I won't take time to name guilty players who let Cousin walk all over them, nor will I take the path of blaming Gordon Strachan for having the lads not ready to play. Instead I will take the positive route and sing the praises of Aiden McGeady for looking like the only Celtic player who took the Old Firm serious that day.

Of course, no Old Firm story is complete without the hatred and bigotry of Ranger fans. Former Celtic player and current coach, Neil Lennon, was hospitalized after being attacked by two Catholic hating Huns in the streets of Glasgow.

Once again, football brings out the best and the worst in us.
