Mulgrew: I can't get enough of Old Firm duels

16 February 2011 18:00
Charlie Mulgrew insists he will never tire of facing Rangers despite the prospect of an unprecedented seven meetings between the Old Firm rivals this season. Sunday's Clydesdale Bank Premier League clash at Celtic Park will mark the third derby since the turn of the year. Once the league business is out of the way for the time being, the Glasgow giants will then do battle in the Scottish Cup fifth-round replay and the Co-operative Insurance Cup final in what promises to be a dramatic period for both clubs. But, as far as Mulgrew is concerned, there is no chance of the famous fixture ever becoming boring no matter how many times the clubs come up against each other. "These are the games you want to play in," said the versatile Hoops player. "Every one will be as big as the last one. They are great games to be involved in and it's even better when you win. They are brilliant. "Those are the games you want to play in as a player - the bigger the better - so these games coming up should be good. It is a bit strange playing so many, but it's brilliant. "I don't think there could be enough Glasgow derby games this season as the fans treat every one the same as the one before, so we will just look forward to the next one and hopefully we can win them. It would be great if I could play out here [at Parkhead] against Rangers as I haven't done that before but we are only looking forward to the next game."
