    Even considering the poor financial backing RD has received, some of his decisions are utterly baffling…

  2. Big Wavy

     

     

    First priority is a settled team which you get by playing same players in same positions.

     

     

    Not sure what part injuries are playing but that was nothing like our first choice.

     

     

    Even then we have no first choice CF.

     

     

    To allow that is bad football judgement.

    BIG WAVY. 1425

     

     

    What positives are you drawing from today?

     

     

    And why do you think that those who are criticising are wrong to do so?

  4. We’re struggling to transition from midfield into the final third. Under Strachan and Lennon we would play direct into the strikers and rely on it sticking on enough occasions, but under Ronny we’re trying to pass through. It’s what the big teams do but our players are either not good enough or they’re just not used to it. We put a huge amount of pressure on our defence when we lose the ball in these areas. We need better movement from our three attacking midfielders.

  5. the glorious balance sheet on

    On the balance of play we did not deserve a draw against the newly promoted Dundee.

     

     

    Repeatedly ripped apart down the left hand side of defence with ease.

     

     

    Izaguirre could have been set off on 2 occasions and there would have been no cause for complaint whatsoever.

     

     

    Johansen continually dispossessed throughout the game and we had nothing at all up front.

     

     

    Berget – why was he signed?

     

     

    Only positives for me – Craig Gordon was excellent again and young O`Connell was was very calm throughout despite having been thrown into the deep end while others such as Izzy were imploding.

     

     

    One goal scored, thanks to a deflection, in 6 hours of football v Dundee, Maribor and Inverness.

     

     

    Solutions to our problems will not easily be found when the powers that be still kid themselves on that we are “one of the best run clubs in Europe, if not the world.”

  6. So what’s up folks?

     

     

    Short memories eh?

     

     

    A week ago we lost to ICT. I was on here raging and I was ridiculed.

     

     

    It’s only the league.

     

     

    We’re already guaranteed to win it.

     

     

    Defeat in the league doesn’t matter.

     

     

    So now we draw away to Dundee and it’s uproar on CQN.

     

     

    Make yer bliddy minds up.

    The major difference from last season is the coach.

     

    Undeniable.

  8. yeah, no doubt about it, the players are mostly to blame. It’s obvious to everyone, basically they’ve got the hump for some reason. Bring back the days when our players played for Celtic and not themselves( which most are not doing either by the way).

     

    Poor stuff all round.

  9. bournesouprecipe on

    Another dire performance from unrecognisable Celtic against the promoted side with only anonymity for those, that weren’t rank. Strange team selection compounded by strange substitutions, with regular players completely out of sorts.

     

     

    Shut your face we did well to draw and might hang on to the star centre back, according to the ‘fantasists’.

     

     

    It’s open season for the mineshafters

     

     

    Gutted Dissolusioned (and aff oot) CSC

  10. Aff oot for a swim to cool down.

     

     

    That made depressing reading, but thanks(?) for the updates bhoys.

     

     

    HH!!

  11. Craig Gordon again proving he was a good signing.

     

    Griffiths, Denayer and Oconnel did OK.

     

    No one else gets pass marks.

     

    Disappointed that young McGregor was MIA today.

  12. I can’t believe we were considering griffiths to go out on loan.

     

     

    What the hell is going on?

  13. Captain Beefheart on

    The board lovers are gunning for Ronny. Anything to deflect from the board’s lack of investment.

  14. westy1888 God Bless Wee Oscar on

    It’s a joke of a team! We won’t win it this year the way we are going!

     

    And bye bye Virgil, you signed the contract, GTF

  15. This is NOT going to work. We cannot get rid of the players so the manager has to go. It’s that simple.

  16. glendalystonsils on

    When that result gets texted through to DD on the golf course ,I hope it disnae make him miss his putt. That would be awful.

  17. Does John Collins actually do anything? Or does he think he’s in a queue for the barbers?

     

     

     

     

    Just biding his time until Ronny gets the chop and he’ll take over for the second half of the season while we search high and low for the perfect candidate…..which will turn out to be John Collins.

     

     

    Really, really depressing stuff today.

  18. I feel sorry for Ronny, he thought he was coming to a club with CL players and finds a lot of sub-standard players, Izzy and Efe in need of a break, and a Kris Commons who has lost his mojo and is now a passenger.

     

    Apart from Broonie, we need a target man – will the Serb sign? – and James F. and the African bhoy on the flanks.

  19. GivehimthemoneyPeterCSC on

    Absolutely shocking display today…we always struggle after a euro game today but that was hitting new lows…

     

     

    The team looks bereft of confidence

     

    Kayal and Johansen need a midfielder that holds his position to play around as they are headless chickens at times…I’m even missing Broonie as a central midfielder!

     

     

    Deila shows faith in Commons and Commons has his worst game for a long time…hmmm

     

     

    Deila will be alright if the board back him….Keep the faith Ronnie!

    Because PL said this week that ‘our people’ don’t think that Scottish based players are good enough. That’s the same people who obviously think Balde, Pukki, Boerrigter etc are good enough.

    Sure ,Ah am a Big Wrestlin fan..

     

     

    Vince Mc Mahon, is a Pal o Mine..’

     

     

     

    So Why dae ye ask?

  22. Harald Flatpack on

    Too many changes over these past few weeks.

     

     

    No balance in the team and no discipline in the team structure.

     

     

    Play is too often too slow

     

     

    Ambrose and Izzi are in the poorest form of their time at Celtic and need a rest

     

     

    Biggest difference though is that Commons is just off the pace, very little happening for him all season.

  23. Awe_Naw_No_Annoni_Oan_Anaw_Noo on

    So if Leigh had agreed a deal yesterday it would be a point less. Great match preparation ?

     

     

    A thumbnail sketch why playing for Wholesale FC will affect group think.

  24. mncelt

     

    Media says he has asked to leave.

     

    RD and PL say he’s going nowhere.

     

    Board grumpies say Aye right. He’s off.

     

    Board skeptics, moi, think he should be shipped out if he is sulking like a big girls blouse

  25. Sutty:

     

     

    Same old failings

     

     

    Lack physical presence

     

     

    Don’t have enough leaders

     

     

    Berget ineffective.

     

     

    LG livewire.

     

     

    Celtic don’t create enough.

     

     

    So predictable.

     

     

    Q. LG to Hibs?

     

    A. “Send Berget to Hibs!!!”

     

     

    Strachan;

     

     

    Can’t win headers

     

     

    Celtic’s left side weakness

     

     

    LG always shoots.
