Hamish and Stevie look ahead to Celtic’s first match of 2025 — a derby visit to Ibrox.
The Celtic support are feeling confident going into this game but how will things play out? Can we pile more misery onto Rangers?

The midfield did things more quickly against St Johnstone because they were far more open and a poor team. They were terrible defensively.
Stevie keeps this channel together 😂Happy new year guy's
Happy New Year Hamish, Stevie and everyone at Celtic AM. That 1994 derby Stevie spoke about was my 1st. It was horrendous, couldn't get the boat back to Belfast quick enough. I think the younger supporters should watch that game and appreciate how our fortunes have changed in recent years. Enjoy the moments. HH 🍀
Good morning bhoys n ghirls. A very snowy Midcalder.
Agree with Hamish on that being the starting 11 and with Stevie's points re Bernardo and Valle 💚
I think the GGaffer will have some surprises tomorow
Bernardo & Idah start
I think we are all way too confident, Clement has saved players specially for this game, dropping points in the process. Cup final was really close. I think this one will be too.
Will be a tough game tomorrow, they will try to kick us off the park.. Robertson won’t protect our players. 🍀
happy new year, lads HH
Hamish I think your reliance on the Rangers fans getting on the team’s back if we start well is misplaced unless Celtic continue to play well and capitalise on their superiority. Just look back on the 3-3 game last season and the 2-2 result the previous year where we were so far ahead in the first half to then be pulled back in the second and almost lose the games. Rangers do seem to relax somewhat when behind so we need to get ahead and continue to press home that advantage. We have the players to punish the opposition so we need to impose our superiority tomorrow.
They can turn Celtic Park if we don’t get into our rhythm, we are two positive attacks away from giving them a reactor core alarm. Remember that game, Mark Hayley made you wish you stayed in yer Kip.
Through injuries they will have a starting back line of Sterling King Propper Yilmaz 😂😂. I’ve got visions of an empty ibrox by 80 mins 🍀
Rumours sweeping Glasgow that butland is out after being hospitalised with internal bleed
How many tickets do we get. Is it changing next year
Happy new year everyone!
No excuses tomorrow
A game we should be winning end of 👍
The reason everyone is so confident is because if we lose it doesnt matter hahah😂😂 ok, we will be annoied for a day or two but thats it 😂
We are still 11 clear and rangers have two away games the next two weekends 😂 whos even to say they will win them lol
The excuses are getting compiled at this very minute. I’d be surprised if they get a decent turn out tomorrow, and that’s only the first 11.
Hamish yer getting peltters in the comments for not knowing the first feet! 😂
Hamish you and stevie are great entertainment I love it when your both on should get stevie on the celtic way too
KT Jota & someone from Chelsea? Any thoughts
Happy New Year to Tims everywhere.
In terms of managers losing their job after a derby defeat, you could argue Venglos (1999) was outed after losing to the cup final. Also Deila (2016) resigned after losing to them on pens in the semi final when they were still in the second tier.
But land now out of game. Liam Kelly will have a game like Ian Andrew’s did for us. Lose 5
Wis at 1 In eights franky boy soreed 2 I n 2-0 win 🍀🍀
spot on get hatate out for bernardo to keep engels in
I thinkt he only reason Clement is still the man is cuz Rangers cantt afford to sack him
I am uneasy with all this confidence floating about – I wonder if their a shock result in the post?!
But n Tav out , Baloonigan struggling we have to be confident. Empty stadium around 4.15pm 👍🍀👍
I Can't believe a Scotsman doesn't know what a first foot is 😣
Butland "bleeding internally" … Allegedly Police Scotland have questioned Daizen 😳
Great content Hamish but you have far too many add breaks. Much more than any other celtic content.
Ibrox will deliver it's verdict on Clement. Doesn't really matter what happens. We've won the league. What will be interesting tomorrow is the reaction of the crowd depending on what happens on the pitch. I can't see us losing and there's no real pressure to win. 14 point lead in January is massive. It could get ugly for them.
The most stupid phrase in football is “We are hopingforaresult
Hoping for a result”….in every game there is a result…win, lose or draw…..there are good results and bad results….today will be a good result…..
