THERE was something inevitable about Celtic drawing Inverness Caley in the quarter-finals of the Scottish Cup.

The recent history between the two in this cup might send a shudder down the spines of some Celtic fans, but the fact is, if you pull on the Hoops, you have to beat everyone.

Caley will be stodgy opponents, but Celtic can get through and I don't think the players will be too bothered by the shocks of recent seasons in the Scottish Cup.

You need a strong mentality at Celtic and there is no point in looking at the past. All that matters is getting the better of the Highlanders and into the semi-finals.
