Fighting the same foe too many times

1064

Napoleon observed that no one should fight the same enemy too many times, as eventually their superior ways and techniques will become redundant as the inferior foe will eventually hit on a strategy which works.

Dundee United did reasonably well in their two games against Celtic in the last 9 days, despite playing a considerable part of both games with a man disadvantage.  They will arrive at Celtic Park tomorrow night having learned a few lessons, and hooping to compete with a full complement of players.

The danger for Celtic lies in what happened against St Johnstone at Celtic Park earlier this month.  The Perth team have won only two of their nine games since 17 January but they knew what to expect from Celtic, who were marginally off-pace, enough so to leave the field without points.  Another marginally off-pace performance tomorrow night and talk of trebles will evaporate in an instant.

If we’re vulnerable at any point between now and the end of the season, it’s this midweek.

    Caller though that Kris Boyd had found them.

    Weefra, really?

     

     

    It was meant to be a compliment to say how you don’t take things to heart.

     

    i.e. You may get upset but then forgive or forget and move on. Also as I see it because you love this mad place, you get over things. Think about it, life’s too short.

     

     

    It’s amazing how when something is written with one intention, it can be taken the other way and before I offend you again I do not mean this is exclusive to you :-)

     

     

    I will speak to you next time we catch up as the written word is not working from me to you tonight.

     

     

    Hopefully will catch up with you soon

    We can’t afford to lose the likes of you on here

     

    Now. How’s the lambing going?

    Charlie Nick still wears an earring……..fact

     

     

    As an original Bhoy, he was fined by Celtic everytime he turned up wearing an earring.

     

     

    Everytime he turned up at Celtic he wore an earring.

     

     

    Heard the Rangers United result on five live news tonight.

     

     

    Rangers 2 Hāloa 2

     

     

    Drawing with a team that Englandshire’s premier radio sports channel have never heard off and can’t pronounce.

     

     

    Why All This Punishment?

    Thank you both for your patronising posts. Not amused am I. I neither need or require your support. I support the most successful football club in this country. I live and breath Celtic, that’s my excuse. Disappointed in both of you. BUT, that’s just me. HH
