A loss as expected but at least it wasn’t a complete humiliation like it looked like it was going to be when we conceded in the first minute.

We move on to the Ross County game.

Another boring uninspiring game from a leaderless team with no identity,tacticly defensive,lacking in creativity and confidence,a mish mash of subs.20% possession, 1 shot on and off target, yes it was celtic,but as we are at present I struggle to see where the next win will come from,next manager has a huge challenge in front of him,a complete clear out is needed.

Yeah, Armstrong did well.

Largely chasing shadows, but put himself about, won a few balls in the air and his general hold up play seemed OK.

Hard to assess Plange as I don't think he touched the ball.

Dickson seemed to have a bit of composure and kept the ball fairly well for the few touches he had.

It's not possible to clear some players out before the end of the season surely if they are under contract.

Need to use our forward signings and play some attacking football our next 3 games. Based on what we are seeing we have to think we are going to give up goals so we have to bite the bullet and attack and score more than we give up.   8 games to the split so the next 3 will have a big influence on what half we end up in.

I agree. It was the same last season -leaked goals and scored around the same amount - hopefully the new strikers will start banging the goals in

Really what we seeing. Today doesn't mean much In the grand scheme of things. We will have a new manager next time we line up who's gonna have his way of playing and his system. Thought we were minimally better than we have been in recent weeks(not a high bar granted) it's just are we gonna carry it forward to play a bit better against likes of County and Dundee clubs. Time will tell. I think after week the club has had bridges need built between club,players and fans

Sadly we barely laid a glove on celtic but the effort & determination was there & celtic were made to work for it. Far more positive than its been.

The left back looks good. Fast, not scared to burst forward & put on the cross for that goal. Sadly didnt look to exploit the side much after that.

Armstrong rolled his sleeves up & got stuck right in. Did well & annoyed the life out of celtic rather than letting their defenders do what they wanted. Impressed by him.

Cant write the Palace boy off after half an hour but he was certainly the opposite of armstrong. Looked a bit shaken by the no nonsense elements of scottish football.

Didnt notice enough of the man city boy but he was played in midfield. To be honest, a game v celtic isnt the one to be makimg judgements on players.

Would have been really happy with a 2-1 loss as strange as that sounds, But Mr 20 million pounds had to score in the last minute and then cry about it lol. Wild to think we dont have a single player worth more than 500k besides miller and play in the same league as teams like Celtic, It does make Brenda's whining about player value in europe however all the more hilarious.

Today went alot better than i thought it would, With a decent manager i feel we could still finish in the top half.

My brother just texted me and said he thought Armstrong did v well... At least his pal who I gave my season ticket to didn't need to pay to watch us get beat :)

 

He’s right ,  played very very well and kept us up the park . Harrasing them til he got tired. Hopefully will be even better against lower opposition.

Jota in tears after scoring a goal at Fir Park...feck Me get a life mate

Attention seeking nonsense and totally fake. 
 

But as we’ve seen this week with Kettlewell’s faux outrage people will believe what they see and are told.
