Well Robinson did say he'd rather get scudded than loose by a dodgy penalty. So looks like he's going to have a right good go at them. COYW. Like others I don't really care about this one. Just want them out of the way but I'd happily celebrate any points we can take

I don't think the players will be turning up with that attitude. The only way to get to them is to beat them. Yes, I agree the odds are stacked against us but I'm hoping the players are so pissed off that they go there and get right in about them and beat them.

Can one of the admins put this thread to correct title? Game 15. "U.K. Olympic diving squad" v Motherwell

Agree. Contact doesn't necessarily mean a foul

Just watched the video Fkn ridiculous At first I'm thinkin why would Tait even try to win the ball but then on watching it again Tait does nothing. The celtic player just runs in front of him and throws himself to the ground. it really is sickening

BBC stats have possession 50/50 but Celtic 9 shots to our 2 On target they have 2 and we have none Lets get our shooting boots on COYW 45 minutes to grab all 3 points

no stream for me..................still at work :-(

Maybe they'll sell Moult and invest some money into keeping Hartley here permanently?

Looks like a pretty aggressive attacking line up. Good on the boss for willing to have a go at them.

I may just have to try that then. Means I'll have to work from home of course tomorrow

Don't you have to pay to watch Celtic tv?

Is this game on tv?

Considering where we were to where we are, in such a short period of time, I'd have to say the rebuild has indeed been great

Agree

Anyway as Robinson says....... it's done and over. Let's take care of business on Wednesday and do what we can to get 3 points

Not paranoia he definately looked like he was smirking. I distinctly remember thinking that while watching it. Maybe it's just how he looks but for since I don't really see him week in and out it looked like a big smug grin to me

I'm hoping the smaller pitch will make it a more physical game and that Campbell starts and just plays Brown off the park. Perhaps this will be more like the Aberdeen league cup game ?

What did Lennon say?

I'm not well enough up on how the rules are written nowadays to argue the point but suffice to say, I'm pretty sure his intention was to influence the referees decision by throwing himself to the ground under his own steam, the contact from the defender not being enough to actually cause him to loose balance or fall over.

although I didn't expect too many chances after we went down to 10 men. I thought up till then at 11 v 11 Celtic didn't have too many chances either. Also thought we were responding well after going a goal down.

One of the posters earlier, mentioning that Sinclair pretty much says" felt a touch so thought I'd go down" if that's not admitting to a dive and cause for some disciplinary action, I'm not sure what is. EDIT: Hope the 'Well fans give him a suitable reception at Wednesdays game.

That's good. No point in saying anything really as it would only get him in trouble. Just suck it up and use the frustration to channel the energy into Wednesday's game.

what's he saying?

Really?? He said that ? That pretty much says " I took a dive"

I thought we played them well the first half. Started the second half pretty well. They score and the game was starting to turn into end to end stuff. Then of course comes the penalty, which killed it. So all in all I'm not disappointed in the players at all for this final.
