After a Semi-final replay at Hampden last night, Dunfermline were confirmed as our opponents for the Scottish Cup final at Hampden on the 26th May.
We are no strangers to the cloggers from the east as we have faced them in no fewer than three finals in the last four years.
Lets hope we can maintain our 100% record against them this year!
Jiri Jarosik has made strong hints that he would favour a return to the premiership in the summer. Speaking of the rumours of a return Jarosik stated "I read it in the newspapers, the Scottish league is not bad. Sixty thousand people come to each of the Celtic games, but the Premiership is something else. You play in full stadiums against very high-quality opponents. We shall see after the season.
"I am glad not to have been forgotten in England. I am an experienced footballer, I already tried to play in England and I will not be expensive. I am, let’s say, ‘usable’."
On the subject of his possible departure to Tottenham Jiri said, "It is a superb team, playing still around fifth place. The stadium is also always sold out, and many big derby games are played. I can see only pluses there. But I do not want to go into detailed thinking about this, we shall see after the season."
The Czech player is now a record breaker! With the addition of an SPL winners medal to the others already gained in Russia, England and the Czech Republic Jarosik has won titles in a record four countries!
We wish you all the best Jiri!
Yours in Celtic
