nice 1 of terminator hately.

will be interesting to see if anybody get a reply or will they just ignore the few dozen complaints by these diddy fans?i'd bet if 1 of the OF was in that position they'd have 1000s of complaints and would be forced to do something about it.how can the other teams ever hope to compete with the OF when we don't have a level playing field on any major decisions like this?

hibs don't have it easy either-celtic away,rangers home,hearts home,motherwell away,utd away. edit:hearts fixtures are rangers away,motherwell home,hibs away,utd home,celtic home. a chance to get a decent gap over hearts and to go above hibs in the 1st game with them playing the OF away.

why celtic away?3 away games against them is it not?

celtic 3-1 motherwell

i,a don't think it's done anything for our chances and if they lose rangers win the league at utd the next day so would be surprised if they are as poor.

wtf

do we have to finish 4th?what happens if utd win the cup and finish 3rd,would they not get the cup final place and being 3rd in the league 4th and 5th get the league places?

they could get better cb's but van buyten and demichelis are far better than reynolds probably ever will be.a move to a decent euro team would be the same as a move to the OF,he'd hardly get on the bench and would end up in the championship.

to criticise the team for a pish performance?fair enough we've done well of late and had a better than expected season but that doesnae make the team or manager immune to criticism after that pish the last 2 weeks.i think a lot of well fans were the same under gannon despite increasingly poor results and performances.we are not a top team and never will be but it really annoys me when fans have a go at you for criticising the team or manager just cos we've been good or done better than expected in previous games.the team deserved booed of today and i don't see how anybody can defend what was clearly a terrible game by us.players and managers are judged game by game and your only as good as your last result and imo far too many of our fans and fans of a lot of spl teams are too lenient on the players/manager although MM would disagree.feel free to shoot me down. oh and that was a wind up,the gtf CB thread. the best are the 1s where you can't tell if it serious or not.

2-0 well,murphy with both.

i'm planning to stand outside looking poor in the hope somebody will give me a ticket.

wasn't at the game today but heard on the radio that 3 fans were taken away by police just after the red card,whats the story with that?apologise if this has been posted.

think a seen on ssn that boruc is to be offered a new deal which would make a move to celtic more unlikely.even if we sell reynolds if a champ team comes in for him we can't better the wages they offer so still expect to see him in the chamionship next season.

away crowds against the better supported teams like hibs,hearts and aberdeen have dropped.10 years ago these teams regularly brought 2000-3000 now they rarely get much over 1000-1500.the bottom teams always bring about 400-1000 in recent times.our atts against the OF have dropped badly in recent years.we used to get 10500-11000 and now we rarely get more than 9500 and celtic will probably only bring about 2000 when we play them.

from the season after next its only 1st that gets in the cl at the early q rounds and 2nd,3rd and cup winner/finalist in the europa.as for us this season i think if we do well in the next 2 games we'd be almost certain to finish at least 5th barring a disaster.assuming we finish 5th we obviously need 2 of the top 4 to be in the cup final.tbh as long as we get past the early rounds i'd rather we finish 5th and get possibly 4-6 games.if we finished 3rd we might only have 2 games and its a lot better watching competitive games to pre season friendlies.the money the club would bring in from 3 home euro games would cancel out any loss from the position in the league aswell.

does anybody know if we have any before the split? live games not alba games.

oops forgot about that 1. maybe hearts and killie could have a look at us to see how to defend well without kicking people.

the level of disabled areas at spl grounds is very poor. think motherwell's pretty good by comparison.

motherwell give away very few fouls anywhere on the pitch.thats why we were top of the fair play league last season and probably this season. i don't remember the last red card we had either.anyone know?

i was really talking about the last 10 years,i'm a bit young to remember most of those players. i take your point that not many have gone from the spl to europe recently but thats probably because they aren't rated very highly by euro teams.

there's not many scottish players who've left the spl for europe and been a success and a don't see him being any different.also if he went to holland the chances are he'd only go back the way but if he went to a lower epl or champ team he'd have more chance of getting a move to a big team and the teams he'd be playing against would be better in the epl.think the chance of cl football might make him more likely to go to holland than the epl though.

i've never been in it but in passing it looks about 100ft.the ball has hit the millenium stadium roof which is a lot higher so it can always happen with a roof.

i think psycho1991 is lawsteelman from fpc.the most negative poster around.

we've no chance of keeping him anyway so are we really bothered who he goes to.tbh i'd be surprised if he went to celtic.expect to see him in the championship nex season.
