Lessons learned from Friday experiment

828
By on CQN BLOG & Comments

After every experimental line-up (such as Friday’s), it’s tempting to ask what the manager learned from the experience.

The partnerships on the left and right wings didn’t look right.  Emilio Izaguirre didn’t overlap as often as usual and Stuart Armstrong was less effective than normal.  A lack of space impacted the James Forrest-Adam Matthews partnership on the right.  Forrest was manhandled until he switched left or got inside the box, when he was able to play unhindered.

Ineffectiveness on the wings led to the same up front.  Anthony Stokes doesn’t get to play centre forward too often and didn’t really get much of a chance on Friday.  Stokes anonymity was the most glaring aspect of the game but I suspect the responsibility lies elsewhere.

    Great to see you posting your stuff.

     

    Leftclicktic took over the mantle last night as politics was threatening to over run the blog.

     

    My favourite wee dittys were both after Celtic v oldco games.

     

    After the 6.2. It was oh your no laughing noo because we gubbed you 6.2. The Huns has mocked our players when the team’s were being announced.

     

    The next was the 5.1 game. Dr jo v Dick Advocatt. After the game fans singing to the tune of Simon and Garfunkel. I’d rather be a sparrow than a snail. They were singing I’d rather be a doctor than a dick.

    Roy C, lovely pic of Harry Hood, first Celt I ever met, at St Mary’s primary school in Bathgate on the Gala Day. Signed my autograph book and got a photo taken as well, both since lost in the mists of time but I still remember the excitement – the awe -at meeting one of my heroes, a man who had scored for the Celtic!

     

     

    He had a right keeker that day as well, wonder who gave him that.

     

     

    I went to St Mary’s Bathgate until 1968

     

    Might know you ?

    Dallas, Dallas, Patkeadcumsalford,

     

     

    GM’s wife Rosaleen, a fluent Irish speaker, is Charlie Gallagher’s first cousin.

     

     

    Parkheadcumsalford: just wondering if my sister picked up a cup final ticket from you recently?

     

     

    Happy Easter to ALL cqners,

    U2’s Sweetest Thing sticks with me at the 5-1 game. Left the ground singing it up to the Gallowgate. :)

    Bang on the button.

     

    That was the song the D.J. played at the full time whistle. The wee ditty about Dr Jo was being sung by some fans coming out the ground. Always stuck with me as I thought it was very witty.

    Had a bit of a laugh watching the Sunderland – Newcastle game.

     

    The commentator kept referring to the Sunderland manager as ‘little general’……

     

     

    ……I’m pretty sure it was the ‘little w*****’

     

     

    Ach maybe it was just me!

     

     

    ;-)

    I have to agree my favourite banner too.

     

    When it was unfurled I remember thinking wow. Some great work put into it.
