Celtic FC manager Martin O'Neill will have seven days to prepare his side for the UEFA Cup final after a Scottish Premier League match against Dundee FC was brought forward.
Generous offer The Glasgow club were originally due to face Dundee on Saturday 17 May - just four days before taking on FC Porto in Seville. But following Dundee's generous offer to the Scottish Premier League, Celtic have decided to move the game to Wednesday 14 May. Free weekend The match will be played at Celtic Park, with a kick-off time of 19.45GMT (20.45CET), to give the Hoops a free weekend ahead of the UEFA Cup final. A Dundee spokesman said: "Celtic have accepted our offer to play on the Wednesday and I hope it works. A Celtic victory is good for all of Scottish football." First of all we need to say a big thank you to Dundee Football Club because it was a fantastic gesture 'Fantastic gesture' A grateful O'Neill said: "First of all we need to say a big thank you to Dundee Football Club because it was a fantastic gesture from them. It gives us a bit more time now to prepare for what is a massive match. It's a great gesture from them and one which is much appreciated by everyone at the football club." taken from the uefa website hopefully this now will give us a better chance of not getting any injuries and will give us a full squad for the final |

Might wanna read over the first post again Scottie. It's Dundee who are doing this, not United.
Anyways still a pretty good gensture as a Celtic win will sove the middle finger up at all the people who never ever thought a Scottish club would get this far again. |

Just for that, and only for that, I hope they have a very successful weekend in the league
 Seriously, big thanks to Dundee for their very considerate offer, which has been taken up by Celtic |
