Celtic v Hibs – Colin Steven gets whistle, Kevin Clancy on VAR

Just remembered that we’ve not covered the match official details for tomorrow’s Scottish Premiership match at Celtic Park as Celtic take on Hibs in the 3pm kick-off…

It’s not as critical as at other stages in the season when the points matter, to Celtic anyway. Not that being Champions of Scotland for 2024/25 is going to lessen the appetite for the team who has had to wait to walk out at Paradise as Champions after winning the league at Tannadice before going to Ibrox last weekend.

We have to play Hibs tomorrow, Aberdeen in midweek and finish off another successful Scottish Premiership campaign next weekend against St Mirren – Trophy Day at Celtic Park.

Then it’s Hampden for the Scottish Cup Final for all those ‘lucky’ enough to have come out of the ballot. Some guys have all the ‘luck’ or so it seems.

Anyway tomorrow Colin Steven has the whistle, suppose it beats the two surname mob. He will be assisted by David Roome and Colin Drummond who will run the lines. Kevin Clancy gets the VAR gig and his assistant will be Gary Hilland.

The sun will be shining down on the Champions

Looks like the sun will be shining down on the Champions, Hibs meanwhile will be desperate for the points in their pursuit of a third place finish. Celtic should just beat the then Aberdeen on Wednesday night to cancel the defeat out for both! Seems fair and reasonable does it not?

And remember tomorrow let’s make some noise for the Bhoys, Champions of Scotland once again! This is how it feels.
