Fan-a-tic
The referees are inconsistent.
But they are consistent in how they apply their inconsistency.
A much improved second half by Celtic who went on to dominate Ross County winning by a margin of 2 clear goals. Not exactly scintillating stuff but a comfortable win all the same leaving Celtic 3 points clear at the top
i see Lawell comes out of the woodwork and heads to geneva to fight for Money – i wish he would grow a set in scotland and stand up for the club more publicly. refs, pitches, SFA shenanigans ..his only interest is profit and bonus
Worst decision the ref would have to answer to is the deliberate handball when CG was knocking the ball to KT and centre forward stuck hand out to intercept it.
It must be a caution, no ifs or buts….but?
The second half was better.
The defense looked solid and Boyata and Erik look like they could be a strong partnership.
Still worry about our lack of movement and anticipation.
We are a completely reactive team and unlees this changes we will struggle.
I have never seen a team so consistent in passing behind team mates.
Still think Bitton is our problem.
Cant tackle.poor positionally and offers nothing positive.
He is a big reason for our stalled engine room.
We won the game and we deserved to win the game and that is the all important thing.
It was not a 5 star performance and there are still doubts and questions to be answered, there were some positives out there, I thought Joe Hanson tried really hard, Boyata had a good game, Tierney continues to impress, I just love the kid but for me yet again Griff showed why he is our ace man.
No chest thumping but not too bad either, a kind of a strange feeling not up not down but happy with the 3 points.
Good result……
…..for the
Good Ghuys…………………………….

In every one of our games the refs are incredibly consistent.
Allowing our opponents to commit yellow card offenses without the deserved caution.
The same challenges by Celtic players immediately produce yellows.
Fanatic …. usually agree with you, but I’m not sure about this one ….
how may players come to us, start off looking to play forward passes, then after a few games of seeing no movement, start throwing up their hands, and start knocking the ball sideways or backwards…
NB is not the only one I recall this happening with ….
TET,
Very surprised mate at that result today!
However good result for wee Shay!
All the best mate was a good run for our money. Onto LMS 7!
HAIL! HAIL!

well done lg- in a select club now
Jonathan ” Sutherland – no more…”
Please.
Big Gaelig Football game on at the moment for Clonmel where I live. They are playing the Dublin Champions in the semi final of the All Ireland Football Championship. This is ground breaking stuff for this town, a kind of East Kilbride feeling. It’s really tight at the moment 25 minutes to go and Clonmel lead by a point.
Oh Shite the Dubs have just equalised. Come on Clonmel.

How are you pal.
Happy to differ on this one.
I have being saying the entire season that Bitton is the problem and he keeps reaffirming my view.
Lats week counties first goal came from a weak defensive effort by Nir and the ball dropped in danger zone for them to score.
Today Gordon made a great save after a truly poor attempt at defense by Nir allowed a lear shot from same area.
A lot of our goals against are from an area he is supposed to control.
He is very poor positionally.
Also he always takes the easy pass which is usually sideways or backwards.
If we where more proactive he could pass into space with the ability you say he has but since we are a reactionary team then he has no point being selected.
Hail Hail
Good win today
I wonder if radio shortbread will now devote a complete programme as to how Scotland’s lower tier teams manager ( with 2nd highest player budget) now “stumbling” …won’t hold my breath ….oh look a squirrel! And Ronny d tried to eat it ..so he did !!!..he did I tell you ..he did
Good result, bit dismayed by doom and gloom merchants on Synde. Apparently 2-0 isn’t a good result anymore ffs
Fan-a-tic … cant argue with your thoughts on NB’s defensive gaffs … they have been there for all to see ….
and I am not sure if he is a bit short of heart, or, just like the rest of the players (except one or two -LG, KT and the new CB who all seem to have an innate confidence) has simply lost his confidence under RD…
however, he is still one of the few true footballers in our team …
If we dont ruin his confidence completely, he would one of the few that could cut it in the EPL/could make us a few bob on a transfer.
I think LMS6 has got me addicted to gambling? Fancy a wee wager? 20 pounds to charity … I wager that, at some point next season (under a new manager) you will come back and say ‘Mike, you were right… NB is a player!’ ….
:)
Jobo/CRC
Hope you both have a smashing wee night, and all your good work is much appreciated, the hoops win, and none of the good ghuys profit through selling their souls this week and last week, I think, just a personal opinion the money goes to wee Shay, we all entered the competition and wee Shay is still standing, and when all said and done that’s what LMS is all about, hope you don’t think am over stepping the mark but I think that would be the best thing then ….. Then we go for the next LMS
Just turned on the chelski game and big Costa is wearing the face mask noo, is it shots each doon there.
Gerryfae … grand idea pal!
I’m planning on winning the next LMS, and dont want that victory/money tainted by my having bet on the zombies this time …
Just home from Paradise.
Happy with the win and three points.
Some decent performances.
Ross County are not a diddy team.
Can enjoy the rest of the weekend now.
Onwards to the ICT game next Saturday.
Wouldn’t want to swop my team for any other side in Scotland.

11 wins and 2 draws in our remaining games will get us over the line – 93 pts. Sheep can only get to 92
Cheski 3 nil up and coasting against Ashley’s mob.
An easy three points, not a great display but a professional one. Defence looked solid, thought Boyata had possibly his game in the hoops. GMS grew in confidence the game went on and even Bitton and Armstrong, who were the weak links in the first half, came onto a game in the second. Johansen a bit more like the player he was last season, although his passing is as poor as ever.
The press and media will need to do some work this week rather than spend it Celtic/Ronny bashing. Roll on the second part of the Highland double next week.
Better second half today. A bit worried that my nephew Marcus Fraser dislocated his shoulder. In hospital just now.
Nipping out in a bit and the good news is that it has warmed up a bit, only -23 right now.
Gerryfraethebrig,
Thats a decent idea mate.
Mike in Toronto,
Thats two LMS’ on the bounce I’ve got to the last 3. Had i stuck with my original and gut feel pick of Dundee i wouldve been in. However changed my mind and blew it. And so lost. Thems the breaks. Honestly didnt think the huns wouldnt win either soooo
Anyway onwards and upwards to LMS7!
HAIL! HAIL!

Apologies for my wee dig last week, it is just a wee joke and a laugh but the good work both CRC and Jobo do is magic, I love a wee bet but if it was my last tenner it would be Last Man Standing for a great cause and we get a wee laugh and a joke about it, as far as I am concerned all who entered nobody won so the winnings should go to the most important person in the competition
Hail Hail
Mon Scotland shove up the smug Welsh bougherras
OMG Leading by 2 points with a minute left, Concede one and then in very last kick of the game the Dubs draw level. Extra time looms.
Token Tim …. hard luck on that!
my brilliant strategy for the next time, I”m just going to copy who you you are picking ’til it gets near the end, and then switch up … :)

When Kane Hemmings scored his 2nd goal I immediately thought about your post, roll on the next competition, you have some record so far
MIKE IN TORONTO
Happy to take that wager.
If we get anything around 5million he will be gone but if he stays it would have to be in a different position.
I don’t doubt there is ability but not in the position he plays for us.
Someone last week said Nir is the most intelligent player we had?
I have seen no evidence but a well coached team who had movement and attacked positive zones then his passing may come to the fore.
He is not a holding mid due to the facts that he is positionally poor and can’t tackle and rarely sets up any forward play.
In his present guise he is a momentum killer.

Seriously I will be in shorts as reffing a game in a dome at 4pm.
Highlight of the match for me…Guy in the main stand headers the ball back into play, whilst talking on the phone………..and continues the conversation as if nothing had happened !!
Really enjoyed the game but there ain’t half some negative nellies around.
Today was won by hard work and effort which is to be applauded. Stuart Armstrong, who was having a poor game, stuck at it, showing resilience, and got his reward with a nice chip for Dedryk. Stefan Johansen, booed at every turn, never stopped running and harrying and put a few Ross County hardmen in their place. Nir Bitton never lost a ball in the crowded midfield in the opening 24 minutes, he won a few 50:50 tackles and Ross Co. players were beginning to stand off him. Then, on the 24th minute mark, he lost his first tackle and there were immediate loud groans and boos. We are eating our own at CP these days.
Best performances today were from Shiavtchenko, Griffiths and Tierney. Great effort from Brown and Johansen and some real flashes of skill from Biton. The only signs of nervousness in the Celtic team was Craig Gordon who made 3 or 4 unforced errors early on before producing a good save.
Aff oot now and looking forward to making it a Highland double next week.
But seriously, some of you need to get a wee bit more joy in your lives. The negativity is unprecedented and way over the mark.
Well done the Glasgow Celtic!
Oh and well done the LNS guys who picked Sevco- just like myself and MIT and Lennybhoy last week- you put the mockers on them by taking them as your pick
overseasbhoy, 11 wins & 2 defeats will also give us the Title providing one of the defeats isn’t to the Sheepies,
