  1. And still wouldn’t get more that a 2 minute highlights package on Sportscene as they talk for 30 minutes about the arse cheeks.
  2. Not really the society’s roll but agree that the club should be saying something, although the instructions are quite clear on the website they do seem to be wrong about no Hampden app no ticket as my mates bought all our tickets on his without needing us all to sign up. Hopefully it’s not going to be a total riot on the day.
  3. You and I are looking at this from opposite angles, you see a pass to the opposition striker, I see a horrendous attempted pass (albeit under pressure - see picture above ) to a Motherwell player, the type of pass we see every week numerous times between outfield players be it by ourselves or on tv by another team which is groaned at but then forgotten unless it leads to a goal. By your criteria every player should be dropped after a misplaced pass or two. As I’ve said earlier McGregor made a mess of a shot and got a penalty while Ward messed up a pass and they got a goal. These things happen and are not a reason to crucify anyone. I’m sure Ward is more pissed off about it than anyone here and I’m also sure that his teammates, although gutted, stand by him 100%. My only gripe about the incident is that Ward jumped and cursed himself for a couple of seconds before reacting instead of getting himself into a better position to face the shot. THAT is where he should be looking to improve in future. Misplaced passes will happen to players it’s how they react that matters. You also see that mistake as what gave Celtic the win, it wasn’t, they still needed another goal for that. Someone stated a statistic for the pass of 5% chance of success against 95% chance of failure, I’d love to see the data that backs that up because I’m sure every manager and his data analysts who sets up to play the way we do would bin that style of play if that’s not a pulled out of the arse statistic.
  4. They don’t normally need luck against us and I never said they always have, those are your words not mine but yesterday they definitely got the breaks. Sometimes watching a game and a team gets a break I think they deserved that due to the way the team was playing but yesterday I didn’t.
  5. I don’t think it’s an expectation thing, I’d say it’s more to do with players willingness to dig in and do the hard work rather then wait for someone else to do it, our players work rate if a hell of a lot more than theirs and for that we should all be grateful.
  6. If the pass hadn’t gone astray and got to the intended Motherwell player then Ward would have taken out 5 of the Celtic outfield players with one pass, leaving plenty of room for out midfield and strikes to exploit. Yes it’s risk and reward football which when it works is beautiful but when it goes wrong, like today, horrendous. I’m still a believer in it so won’t get too upset about it. Celtic got the breaks today, FFS their penalty came from a McGregor mis-hit shot that bounced up off the ground. It's all ifs, buts and maybes but they definitely got the luck today.
  7. Didn’t know which McGinn to vote for so went for Stama
  8. Sorry but WTF? What did those three do today that merited that? Gordon had a good game today, made some crucial interceptions and a few good forward passes. SOD’s being that good this season so far that some folk were wondering why he’d been dropped. McGinn’s just back from injury and played well today. Not one of them were at fault for the goals conceded today so why single them out? ward made 1 horrible pass that gave them a goal and a few saves that kept us in the game before and after it. Yes it pisses me off that we didn’t get anything from the game but I’m not going to go off on one about the keeper never mind players who did feck all wrong today.
  9. I’m just waiting for Anti-wells next interview where he claims that our success is built on him laying the foundations, building the team, creating the perfect conditions for how our style of football is what he was moving towards, how Wimmer & Askou have only used his ideas and that if he hadn’t been forced out by us ungrateful gits we’d have won the first five games and been top of the league, stick on for the title and would have qualified for the champions league group stages next season.
  10. Just a reminder that there’s no need to rush to FP today for 3pm
  11. 5:30 on the Saturday is a disaster for me as I’ve other commitments, was holding on to the slim to no chance hope that it would be the Sunday game but that’s fecked now.
  12. In my opinion, if it genuinely was for personal reasons then it’s never a mistake to put family first.
  13. I don’t give a feck if LM’s new manager and club throw him in the deep end or easing him in gently cause he’s now an ex player and I believe that he’ll take whatever happens in his stride and that in the next few years he’ll be playing in a top European league with a top team.
  14. threadbear team, playing a team that can’t score or win a game, live on tv. What could possibly go wrong?
