  1. We had Mcstay and Collins in the same team and they were a joy to watch.

     

    Its time we controlled the midfield

     

    with guile rather than muscle if we want to progress.

     

    Yes we didn’t collect many honours but we were up against a corrupt team and a corrupt establishment at the time.

     

    slowly but surely they are getting dealt with.HH

    No offence meant mate. You are obviously a slightly more charitable person than I.

  3. Kayal33, who would want to sign Hooper in any case, after the standard of his performances over the last 2 or 3 months? Even Norwich City have changed their minds!

     

     

    If Hooper wants a move to the SPL and a call-up to play for England, then he needs to be performing at a far higher level than he is against teams that would struggle in the English 3rd division. The likes of Man Utd/City, Arsenal & Chelsea are not going to believe that he can perform against Spurs, Liverpool & Everton , or even Norwich, Sunderland & Wigan, if he can’t produce the goods against Kilmarnock, Inverness & Hibs!

    Commons is as close as we’ve got to a good attacking creative midfielder but his best games for us have been playing off the wing. Our central midfield is populated by players who can break up play, play the simple sideways pass, players in the image of the manager. You need players like that, but we need someone who passes the ball forward, set up attacks, gets beyond the striker and make things happen in the oppositions final third. In a 4-3-3 formation surely one of the middle three be an attack minded player. Today we had Victor, Ledley & Kayal, on other occasions we’ve had Brown and Mulgrew in there as well. All players who are doing a similar job.

     

    We also need width. When Forrest doesn’t play, and that’s been most of this season, we have no threat from wide areas. Another winger, an alternative to Forrest, is desperately needed IMO.

  5. Ten men won the league, that’s what I heard to. He used to travel on EK bus to ibrox that Bobby Tait was a member. Would like independent corroboration.

    The Ref wus Mair Incompetent than.. He wiz Anti- Celtic.

     

     

    He erred… BAITH WEYS..

     

     

    No an easy thing tae dae. but.

     

     

    Nevahtheless…He wiz so incompetent that he Managed tae dae it.

    Fourgreenfields,

     

     

    I agree he shouldnt be near the top level, but even Neil agreed it was a penalty first half.

     

     

    There is enough bias without us blunderbussin every time a result goes against us – it dilutes the problem.

  8. Aside of the shocking ref decisions we really are a poor lot.

     

     

    No direction, no creative play through the middle of the park, no service to our strikers. Consistently throwing high balls forward from our central defenders. We also gave St.Mirren far too much space and time on the ball….Teale had acres of space to run at Izzy.

     

     

    Sadly an overhaul of the coaching is badly needed.

  9. If we looked at the evidence of previous away matches after international breaks then a poor performance could have been expected.

     

    If we look at the stats in the BBC site, St Mirren had the best of the game.

     

    Perhaps we should be happy with the draw and move on to next Saturday. It is still possible to win the league next week.

     

    Pollyanna CSC :-)

     

    Happy Easter.

  10. Tackle worse than Vic’s by Villa player in stoppage time – decision – yellow card !

  11. jimmyquinnsbits

     

     

    My point is that he shouldn’t be reffing games at any level . So why is he ? My point is the bias is in the people running the ref system .

     

    Agree with most of what your saying but we need to challenge this crap at every opportunity .

     

    HH

  12. 67Heaven ... I am Neil Lennon..!!.. Ibrox belongs to the creditors on

    Won’t be too many bhuns doing business with MORE TH>N Insurance….hahahahahahahaha

  13. Kilbowie Kelt on

    I really do despair at some of the comments made on this site.

     

    Today’s match was stereotypical Scottish fare. A good old-fashioned towsie battle on a pitch where staying upright often appeared to be troublesome.

     

    A point seems about right.

     

    Referee had a nightmare, but I saw more evidence of incompetence than I did of bias.

     

    Another step on the long road to the crown.

     

     

    Away for the beer.

     

     

    God Bless Neil’s Young Lions.

  14. JimmyQuinnsBits on

    Jimbo,

     

     

    No offence taken

     

     

    An I’m no charitable, but a cussed ould git.

  15. Ianinascoli,

     

    I never seen the game but would expect a team playing ten men to have the better of the stats

  16. JimmyQuinnButs

     

     

    Pal..

     

     

    There is a Damn good reason why.. Ah am No Pleased the wey things are goin at Parkheid oan the Clyde..

     

     

    And here it is..

     

     

    WE HIVNAE PLAYED WELL.. since..

     

     

    Yon Brilliant Victory we Achieved agin the Barca.

     

     

    and.. that Halcyon Memory… is Noo Quite a Few Games Ago.

     

     

    We are Getting PROGRESSIVELY woise and woiser… Performancewise.

  17. oglach.

     

     

    Paddy mc court to me is a player that has been gifted with talent.

     

    The problem with paddy is he picks and chooses when he wants to show what he is capable of.

     

     

    A good kick up the a**e is what he needs as has the talent. HH

  18. Well at least next Sunday’s hangover is postponed for a while.

     

    Chas or Ledley?

     

    IMO we can only play one of them in midfield.

     

    Kris is fantastic as the free man between midfield and forwards. Creative. Play him there, not in midfield, not wide, where he is most effective.

     

    So either Chas or Joe16 must sit out.

     

     

    Both right backs and both right midfielders being missing is a serious problem.

     

    Lustig behind Forrest good, Broonie stepping inside for Adam to overlap, great.

     

    All combinations missing at present.

     

     

    Getting a midfield to allow Kris to play is the key.

     

     

    So until our absentees return,

     

    Go 4-2-3-1

     

     

    FF

     

    A back four,

     

    Vic and Chas,

     

    Beram, KRIS, Sammi

     

    Hoops.

     

     

    Double in the bag.

  19. Red card was an absolute joke. If that’s a red then there would be several sending offs in every SPL game.

     

     

    And the penalty? Well, apart from the foul in the build up, the tackle being outside the box and there being no contact at all …

    TMWTL

     

     

    A lot of people in Swindon would agree-including the owner of the pub I am in at the moment.

     

     

    Ex-Swindon player with many contacts and some of the tales he has told me beggar belief!

  21. JimmyQuinnsBits on

    Fourgreenfields,

     

     

    Your opinion is as good as mine amigo. You might be right. This performance doesnt strike me as biased, i just think there are more obvious cases to focus on.

     

     

    To quote some pish, the noise can obscure the sound

  22. gg,

     

    cheers for the links,its time we should be calling the cheats for what they are not just Madden but Concalves as well

  23. I only saw the second half live but I now have to revise my earlier indictment of Madden. I don’t think he’s biased, seeing the decisions he denied St Mirren in the f/h. I DO, however, think he is totally incompetent and should never ref a match again.

  24. 67heaven,

     

    What’s the point to MORE THAN that you mention,are they noising up the huns

  25. OK The ref got a few decisions wrong,it wasnt a penalty,but surely we should be good enough to destroy teams like St Mirren, i will say this again lennons pick of players to win games is not happening,cant motivate, be he can sure shout his mouth of to opposing players,like jim goodwin,saying aye jim goodwin Fanny,well lennon you have a few fannies playing for you.as well ,so stop being a fan pleaser get your finger out try try and motivate the players oh sorry fannies,to go and win the game,an example of his bad decisions,into 3 minutes added time brings on tony watt,for f–k sake, if i was u tony i would have told him were to go, oh and the lennon fans on here are quite happy that he had a go at the ref,so thats ok ,well to me thats not good enough.im sure he lennon is one of the reasons celtic fans cant be bothered going to watch celtic, and thats sad for me even to write about that on here, from a man who has supported celtic for 60 yrs.time for a change of manager.

  26. Do players who become managers inherit the philosophy of a former manager?

     

     

    If so, then it would appear that NL has adopted the style of MON’s Celtic.

     

     

    This style does not incorporate a creative midfielder, I’m afraid.

     

     

    MON never fully trusted Lubo in his team and if their was one word to describe his style,it would be pragmatic.

     

     

    Therefore,if my hypothesis is correct,then we can look forward tomore of the same, unless there is a Larsson Mk2 out there.
