    All about the collective
    Their disciplinary problems are part and parcel of their squad dynamic. Them going down to 10 men changes very little for me. Also they should have finished with 9.
    They couldnt get a look at 1-0 and with 11 men. Sinclair had an unforgivable miss that should have buried them also.

    I agree almost entirely but I don’t buy that they’ve outplayed us 4 times.

    At Hampden they destroyed us, absolutely no question about it. The rest I don’t tend to agree.

    We have to raise our application though, 100%. If we match their effort there’s only 1 winner, every time.

    Long way to go. One bad result swings it again to the other teams favour esepcially with our run of games. And going by both teams slow start since the winter break anything can happen.

    Lennon still has no plan B or C to breakdown teams +
    Gerard doesn't have a team used to being leaders/winners
    =
    Points still to be dropped.

    A long way to go yet. But hopefully this weekend was the boost we needed to go on a run and start playing well. We haven’t been amazing since the break but we haven’t exactly been poor. Hearts done us a favour Sunday and if we can get through the next 3 games in the league with max points it will be a huge statement from us.

    I've read on a few sites that our 'destiny' is back in our own hands, before the 'huns without the bus fare' beat sevco on Sunday our destiny was already in our hands as if we'd won all our remaining games we'd have won the league

    Correct and by the same logic it’s still in there’s despite the chip wrappers saying otherwise.

    We just need to keep relentlessly winning.

    I said the very same thing weeks ago buddy.
    We don’t need anyone’s help to win the league.
    We turn up in the DOB games, we win!
    And the rest would be ‘chasing fucn shadows,’ if we bring anything near our A game in the remainder of the season.

    Simples really:fear:

    A quadruple treble awaits:62:

    ......they * may go into meltdown now. But, if not, we welcome the challenge.
    As I’ve said ad infinitum, if we match their aggression, we win. Our class will shine through.
    We’re light fucn years in front of them, in terms of the playing staff, and the structure of our club.

    Let’s keep these * where they belong - at the bottom of the deepest fucn swamp!!!

    In the game at Ibrox we only hit them on the break later in the game cos they were pushing for an equaliser. For most of the game we pressed them high up the park and that's what we need to do again. They've lost 2 games in the league - both of them against teams pressing them aggressively in their own half.

    Six goals and six points from two games isn't bad for a slow start. Our performances might not have been at the level we've come to expect, but I'll take that for a slow start every day of the week.

    I think playing two up top is an attempt at a plan B. Signing a third striker would indicate that it is. We've tried 3-5-2 a few times and it's worked quite well for us. Expect to see it at Livi away - huns away too, possibly? Anyway, my point is we're definitely working on a plan B!

    100% this. If we don't go there with a high press I'd seriously question our coaching staff's ability.

    Hertz got in their faces from start to finish.
    Lenny must be aware of this, as I’m sure he’ll have watched their game back.
    We’ll get it spot on when we next go to the shitpit.....Of that I’m certain, and that’s when the league will be stitched up good and proper.

    I’m repeating this ad nauseum, we match their aggression, we win.
    Our class, and their lack of class will mean we triumph.....even with a DOB masonic referee trying to ‘even things up.’ If we dominate, as I’d expect, they can only influence the flow of the game marginally, if we turn up.

    Following this scenario THE CELTIC will emerge triumphant.

    Here’s to the quadruple treble .....and 15 in a row!!

    They had the advantage, no doubt about it.

    We got very very lucky in the cup final,if we just sit and say its ok we won then we are in trouble....we have to take on board when we are * and have been outplayed.
    I for one am no longer confident we will win games when we play them.....from winning by 5 goals to losing is not something we should ignore.
