fizoxy Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 We scored from a corner, cats and dogs are rejoicing together. Outside of the penalties, celtic had 2 real chances, but they never got in behind us, and we did a great job of nullifying them from crosses. Kyogo was anonymous too. For us, I felt that spittal was looking for beireth too early sometimes, and could have held onto the ball or had a go himself. Going with 3 up top immediately after going behind was a good move, and it gave us that chance to hit back quickly, and we did. I see us going with the same lineup for a while, as is makes us more solid, and gives us a bit more for set pieces. It's good to see Blaney settle into things too.

It’s about following the team through thick and thin, no matter what. Obviously you hope that you get pleasure and enjoyment from it but you know that quite often it’s going to be a hard watch and that you will more likely than not end up frustrated. That’s why unexpected results like we got today are so satisfying, because it makes you understand why you sit through the multiple kicks in the stones.

GazzyB Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 As delighted as I am with a point, make no mistake we were garbage again today. 19% possession is an embarrassment.

SK obviously set up to surrender possession and challenge Celtic to get past us. Didn’t quite work but he then changed players and got the equalizer. we can’t play that way every week but horses for courses, his approach to OF games seems to fair pretty well for the most part. Can he keep us tight at the back AND score goals? Remains to be seen but hopefully this is a huge confidence booster for the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mintymac Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 Result apart which was brilliant there were other aspects of the game was pleasing . The most obvious one was the togetherness of the team helping each other out when we were under the cosh and covering back for each other when players got dragged out of position . If that’s anything to go by then we’re still a team playing for each other and the manager . Bireth was an example of that playing up front on his own never complaining or moaning about how he was played . Just doing what he was told to do and going about it without complaining . paton helped out Spencer and likewise Slattery with O’Donnell . Silly stuff with Butcher pulling the shirt but it all worked out in the end . On to next week with same togetherness and bravery on and off the ball and fingers crossed our first win in ages . As much as I though the Kettlewell game plan didn’t work v Hearts , hats off to him today . Spot on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spit_It_Out Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 Fantastic point let's be honest we didn't have penciled in however the real games are coming up from now until the 16th of December tons to be had and we really need to take. Hope Obika can stay fit until at least January and if Kettlewell wants to stay in a job he really needs to punt Bair and Wilkinson end Shaw's loan during transfer window if possible then we have a chance of getting somewhere.

twistandshout1983 Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 Thought we would lose by a few the way the season has been going . Into the second half and was hoping we could sneak a 0-0 Once Turnbull scored I thought this will be the same old hard luck story Up steps Obika and things seem a bit more positive now .
