This pointless match against a Celtic team takes place on Tuesday 1st October at Cliftonhill.

Won't be bothering with it and can't see many getting excited

Tried to get a mutually suitable date Chris all through the summer but couldn't manage it until now. Celtic were very keen to fulfil this Jock Sein Friendship Cup fixture. The price is £5 . Thanks to the Coatbridge Columba Club who are sponsoring the match.

I don't really see the problem with this. If it brings a bit of money into the club and for the payers it probably beats a training session.
We don't want tonked 7-0 but at the end of the day it's up to both Clubs to try and make it a competitive game.

The rovers are a club that is neutral with people from all and no religion, all and no politics. This game just continues the myth that we are all Celtic minded at the rovers and indeed in the town. That is nonsense and just tars us with the same brush. Is it worth the money for the damage? When many of our own fans stay away that tells you something. There is no friendship.

Could we be lifting a trophy tonight?

I hope so.I miss the Lanarkshire Cup.Bring it back. It was a beautiful piece of silverware.
If you have never seen Rovers lift that trophy then you are not a'real' Rovers fan (last part Copyright of The Prof).

Would happily welcome back the Lanarkshire Cup. Could easily replace the pointless challenge cup.

Could we be lifting a trophy tonight? We have never won this - went to penalties once IIRC.

A complete waste of time & energy.
Don’t think many ‘Vers fans are keen on this fixture, struggle to see why it’s not been scrapped.

0-3 defeat to a young Celtic side.
Will knock the confidence of our first team. Silly.
