  1. Just a wee reminder.

     

     

    Before joining us last year, Urhoghide and Shaw played in the team with the worst defensive in the English championship.

  2. Fair result. We were outplayed for long spells. Goals were soft ones to lose though. Hope we see something closer to first XI in next game.

  3. Only caught the last half hour. Not a team I would expect to see in any competitive match as the season progresses. The defending was poor. Big Chris J took about a dozen games to get going when he first joined us. He looked well off it from what I saw. Right back was poor. No control in midfield.

     

     

    Minutes in the legs, lessons learned no doubt and we move on.

  4. Aye we still have a fair bit to go yet, but not downhearted or even close to it, we have the makings of a very very good team there, just need a couple of first team starters in and away we go, it’s not an easy task getting all the pieces of the puzzle to fit, I trust as the season goes on Ange will figure it out.

  5. Roll on Wednesday …

     

     

    Celtic should always be an enjoyment never a chore in a Celtic supporters life :-)

    Good exercise, ange will know a bit more about his Bhoys.

     

    Enjoy the rest of your Saturday night bhoys & ghirls.

  7. Positives-

     

     

    We nearly won

     

    No obvious injuries

     

    Both teams each half played the same style

     

    Some players played well

     

    It’s only a pre-season not-too-friendly match

     

     

    Negatives

     

    They broke our press fairly comfortably

     

    We struggled to break theirs- too many passes to players less than a yard away

     

    Defending crosses/corners weakened as the game went on

     

    Our passes were too easily intercepted

     

    We are fouling too much- even accounting for their play acting

     

    We nearly lost

     

     

    On to Ostrava, Blackburn, Legia and Norwich

    Celtic looked very fit in the first game for most of those players and scored three good goals. Normal defensive pairing wouldn’t have lost the cross ball goals, great work out for AP’s side against a good side who are still horrible after all these years.

  9. Not enough leadership in the first half.

     

    No leadership at all in the second half.

     

     

    We are well off where we need to be.

     

     

    Looking at the last game / first game situation — we have no heart / emotion.

     

    We won the SPL because of that — if we lose it then we are in trouble.

     

     

    CCV is not worth ÂŁ6mill.

  10. How many defensive headers did we win?

     

     

    The round up showed 3 corners, all headers won by RV.

  11. I wasnt overly impressed by the performance of many players. CALMAC, KYOGO, TURNBUL, BAIN all did okay.

     

    Big GIO MUST learn TWO things…how to hold the ball up and then how to find a team mate.

     

     

    Wee Greg Taylor is so much better than out recent left back signing…so far.

     

    The goals we lost were shocking.

     

     

    Big Julians HEID is obviously elsewhere…..Sadly.

     

    My apologises for stating the bloody obvious.

    “We are well off where we need to be”

     

     

    That just goes to show not one of your posts should be taken seriously

     

     

    First game back for Kyogo, Maeda, Gia, Callum and other internationalists …

     

     

    clueless

     

     

    Or just trying to get a reaction …

  13. What did this match mean.

     

    Absolutely feck all,

     

    What do we learn from it.

     

    Very little.

     

     

    Players playing out there are putting in heavy training sessions, they are not 100% physically or mentally to play at their best,

     

     

    The camp, the match is all about building for the Aberdeen game, That is the only game that counts.

  14. The work continues.

     

     

    Our biggest issue is that we do not have the quality needed to play AP’s tactics.

     

    Even a starting CB and a starting CDM will not be enough.

     

     

    Our FB’s get support from their winger not the MF.

     

    We struggle against a quick counter if the winger on that side is not close enough to the play.

     

    Leaves the FB all too often facing two guys / overload and they are away.

     

     

    CJ should not start for us again.

     

    He is becoming a danger to himself.

     

    Not focused enough to play competitive sport.

  15. Pre season and all that but I see no reason to think we’re going to tighten up at the back in Europe. We will concede by the barrowload in the champions league.

  16. Honest to God, I read some of the posts and I just shake my head.

     

     

    Guys we are in heavy training, The game is part of a programme to have us ready for next Season, had we won today 6 nil it wouldn’t make any difference,

     

     

    Ah what’s the point, I’m away out,

     

    Totally depressed after dropping 2 points.

  17. some amount of negativity , its a pre season fitness exercise ffs.

     

     

    result completely meaningless

    Hopefully lessons will be learned from losing the first goal like that.

  19. Out all afternoon. Just relied on CQN for a read back on the game.

     

     

    We’re back to everyone’s scheidt then?

     

     

    Ah well. Good while it lasted as I too had fully expected us to peak in game 2 at the start of July.

     

     

    Ange out..

    Dinnae Worry about Todays performance.

     

     

    Massive step up in Quality opposition.

     

     

    I’m very Happy with what we may possibly Achieve. Its Don Corleone, Ajax showed the Davie Hay.

     

     

    It would be Good to see a Legend like you 06/08/22 tbc Destination.

    We now find ourselves in an era were supposedly clued up Celtic supporters will declare their undying hatred of Rapid Vienna but don’t even blink when paying ÂŁ53 for a ticket to see Celtic playing at Ibrox then having paid that price for a ticket will then proceed to sing about Rangers FC being dead.
