I don’t know is that was the worst home performance I’ve seen, but it was up there. We look like a broken team. Dundee were comfortable throughout, limited Celtic to one genuine chance in the game (in the 76th minute), and caused havoc during their regular attacks on Craig Gordon’s goals. Their best chance came from a corner kick (what else), which was sent over by a player who stopped to head the ball from 5 yards.
Charlie Mulgrew is not the most gifted player, he’s not a central midfielder and he’s not game-fit yet, but despite putting in an indifferent shift last night, he never hid. The juxtaposition between him and others was stark. We need players with attitude – the captain back on form, Kris Commons fully fit and starting, and others taking their lead.
Confidence is on the floor. Mistakes, backwards passing and long balls forward were all subject to derision, but I think last night was the first time I’ve heard a Celtic substitute being booed onto the field. All because he doesn’t want to renew a contract for his position as occasionally-used squad player. The seriousness of the situation is clearly lost on those who want to boo a player taking the field instead of encouraging the guy to help us win a game. The whole experience got me thinking, how many of us actually want to win this league?
You better believe they want to win it at Pittodrie. They have focus, form, packed stands and patience. They also enjoy the ‘Leicester City effect’ – everyone not competing directly with them wants them to win. The rest of Scottish football is desperate for us to tear ourselves apart right now. We need to circle the wagons, live up to the reputation we like to think we have, and play our role in delivering this title.
You want 10-in-a-row? Bring me your complaints in May, but for now get your shoulder to the wheel. This is not our first performance crisis and it won’t be our last, as a collective, we need to be smart in dealing with these situations.
Everyone at Celtic Park (and beyond) knows this is not good enough, and there’s going to need to be big changes in the summer, but we need to get our act together and put the inquest on hold until the end of the season.

I saw a sticker today with a new version of The Serenity Prayer.
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know To bury the bodies of the people I’ve had to kill because they pissed me off.

Good post.
Let’s hope the current magicians don’t continue with the disappearing act :-)
“ CQN was not a nice place that night, especially when a follower of the dark side came on gloating. ”

It’s a real shame that CQN is becoming ever more like Follow Follow
Top trolling.

Firstly, Should I ever refer to you as Peter it’s purely because Apple devices steadfastly refuse to accept your name is Petec. Refuses. Type it out, it autocorrects, paste it? It autocorrects. I try and remember to correct, but I’m fairly useless, so forgive me in advance.
Anyway – Transhumanism. A contradiction best illustrated by the words Rachel ‘Haywire’ Mendelson. Con artist and lunatic extraordinaire.

P8ddy, what is your opinion on the EU stay or go?
Stay. The EU worries me from a point of view of it being utterly undemocratic. And riven by corruption. However – Not even the most ardent optimist would describe our UK oligarchy as democratic. Further, we’re slipping further and further into totalitarianism. So far the EU has tempered that slide. And the importance of legislation like Human rights laws etc have stopped us slipping into despotism.
I am in no way a fan of the EU as it stands, but it’s something that provides a baseline for improvement and that could (and must) be reformed. I’m in no way as sure that the UK can be reformed as readily, and even surer that without the EU we’ll slip into something worse, and something even more extremely right wing.
Politically I’m anarchist socialist. I distrust all governments in their current form, but as a ‘least damage’ approach staying in works for me.

Still gutted from Friday but there was no reaction from the players last night. This seems to be the norm now. I am now very worried about the league I think we are throwing it away. I am not confident to beat Morton on Sunday either in fact at the moment I am not confident of beating anyone.
I think it is us to the fans now we are the club we get this team over the line then we demand action. I agree it is better the next games are away our away support are always magic, “the home support is no longer the wind under the players wings” as Bertie called us.
To me it is obvious the players have stopped playing and training why I do not know but I know this lose the league and everyone goes with the exception of the young lads.
Do you want us to win the league? if so ask yourself what you can do to help the team? If we keep doing the same thing we are going to keep getting the same results and we will loose the league.

Personally I am very pro european,I would have a United States of Europe if I could.
One currency etc
Why should we be afraid/suspicious of our european neighbours
We have far more in common with the french/spanish/germans/italians etc than we realise.
From an Irish point of view the EU has been very positive and remember it grew out of the rubble that was mainland europe circa 1945
Some clever French and German people said “never again”
An oversimplification I know but there you go,
Forget about UKIP and the lies the tories tell about EU not allowing crooked bananas
Some brits just cant accept they aint got an empire no more

WITs,
I see the Unionists are none too pleased over the new kit for the ROI team with the 1916 Centenary Badge.
It’s likely to be a best seller now apparently.
It looks well to be fair…I think.
