Low conversion rate since Killie

448

If you are a Celtic fan with a persistent need to worry about something, the sight of so many chances being missed in each of the last two weekends will occupy your mind. The game at Pittodrie was indistinguishable from the game at Inverness (our only domestic game which didn’t end in a win), save from the last minute chance which Inverness equalised with and Aberdeen were unable to convert.

We played five games in October, scoring more than once on only two occasions, when we hit two against Motherwell and caught Ross County with a late onslaught. For a squad with the best two strikers in the country this is a conundrum.

Statistical consistency is not to be expected, of course, teams and players will go through barren and plentiful patches, but since we destroyed Kilmarnock last month, Dundee, Motherwell, Newco, Ross County and Aberdeen have all found ways to defend against Celtic for long periods.

Tomorrow night’s Champions League game stands alone, but we might need to change the pattern of play for the visit of Inverness on Saturday.

    It’s tight, but I would say so; also more direct and as BMCUWP will get the pass or shot on goal in quicker.

  5. A lovely warm autumnal day in Monchengladbach. Most places are closed due to public holiday but the bars in the square of the old town are open and filling up with Celtic supporters.

     

    Heading down to fanzone at Rheydt to see what’s happening there.

    Morning Tony; good to see you’re on song again. Some of what you say I agree with, some I don’t.

     

     

    (For instance, I don’t have, and wouldn’t wear a brown shirt. I have a couple of black ones and a few Paisley Pattern ones. In the main, however, I tend to wear white or light blue.)

     

     

    However, I would never accuse you of being a troll; controversial at times, but not a troll. You are a dedicated Tim and that I do respect.

     

     

    The other guy however, although there are some occasions where I agree with what he has to say I think his fundamental strategy is that of trolling.

     

     

    If he thinks so little of CQN, why else would he come on to the site.

     

     

    I trust you will be visiting the Brazen today; have a good one and enjoy the game tonight!

    Thats your narrative and cobblers imo, no need to go over snp history it only highlights your loathin them and goes back to a time when labour was socialist tho ramsey was setting the historical labour precedent of leadership betraying Iits members around the same time in the great battle against capital.

     

    Cheers for the pedantry. Ogger lil

    Yeah cheers fella, as far as I know all is well.

     

    Last time I was in the hospital they told me I’d be all clear for 5 years.

     

    That sounded too good to be true as, I’m relatively new to the workings of those things.

     

    Got a letter in a couple of weeks ago to go to Monklands on this Thursday morn for a routine check(I think?)

     

    Anyway,…que sera, sera….

    So why was the legislation introduced then?

     

     

    And was Christine Graham lying when she said in committee stage that the legislation would even up the score?

    I just don’t get how you can accuse anyone of being anything if you don’t know them, a thing that many do on here on people or persons they don’t know, have a different opinion yes not a problem, that’s all I’m saying, and I never said you called me a troll, others in here play that childish roll, what ever cranks they’r chain, they even like Lord Livingstone now, well! For tomorrow anyway,a year ago the man was left without a name, now his party are carrying the sword for the C T and the G B, funny old world.?
