21 points ahead of Rangers with 12 games to go - it doesn't get much better than this. After the dreadful start to the season being this far ahead is way beyond our dreams. I remember after the Leicester and Sporting Lisbon pre-season games when my girlfriend's brother was proclaiming the league over before it started and that the Celtic team were too old, my response was that experience and youth combined would prove successful and that the team at the time needed a while to gel and to get to know each other. 6 months on and I think they've done exactly that, players are playing well with each other rather than playing as individuals, Neil Lennon and Stan Petrov have always done this but it's becoming more prevalent in John Hartson's game too which is making our strikers more forceful.

We may not have a great team (although we get told that both the old firm are crap after each meeting), but we're the best in Scotland and that's good enough for me.
