Positives to take from that game.

You're joking mate, why are you arsed who manages them, we had an off day and move on, 33 points above them, that's plenty of outfoxing.

 

They can be as buzzing as they want when we could win the league next week. That level of delusion is only better for us. They could have beat us but that was honestly a Red Imps level performance from us today, their team hasn't gotten much better since last September. We'll fling them out the cup with ease.

 

They think they are closing the gap.
There is nothing to suggest in our last two games against St Mirren and today against Rangers to support that.
St Mirren played two banks of four against us and denied us space in dangerous places.
Today Rangers copied that formula to an extent, anytime we got near the half way line they pressed us successfully.
Teams are getting wise to us. Will Brendan change his tactics for the Semi Final ?
Thy have a new manager, he will now look to build on that on what he saw today.

 

We scored 4 against St Mirren did we not?

 

Don't be smarty pants.
St Mirren bottom of the Championship team, could have been 2-0 against us.
Big wake up call that was. It wasn't heard and acted upon.

 

Mind we were two down to Motherwell, Rodgers changed the formation and we won. He got it wrong today but he did change it up, we went 2 up front. He's been trying to incorporate Griff into the team for the past few games and it's been hit or miss. We'll sort it out soon enough.

 

We scored 4 goals and won the game so the tactics didn't work

 

the ball girl is an excellent judge of character

 

Every team has set up with 2 banks of 4 St Mirren weren't the first they won't be the last

 

I think if we pumped them today we might have been over confident for the cup game so my positive is we will be right up for the semi final now and give them a doing.

 

Rangers went 4-3-3. And guess what ? It worked for them. They almost won that game.
And their exact team and tactics were leaked on this forum last night.
And yet. It wasn't acted on. Whose fault is that ?

 

If they almost won the game how did it work for them?

 

That McCann has finally shut up about his master plan of copying Jack Ross.

 

Seriously, are you saying that the manager of Celtic should be checking out the threads on TC the night before a game

 

Only positive today is that it's over.

Think it's the little wake-up call the guy's needed though before the semi. Hopefully this is a blessing in disguise and helps us get more up for pumping them, winning the cup, and doing an invincible season.

 

No.
I am saying that Crow or somebody should have fucken sent it to him.

 

The pie I had at half time was nearly warm. That was it really.

 

Its Crows fault we didn't win today

 

Positives

* Since when are we not allowed to Draw? We aren't Barcalona playing in Scotland.

* This is a wake up not to be complacent going into the semi. We have to give them the respect that they are capable of scoring and defending well. If we can't respect that and adjust our play, then we risk losing or days like today. We had a warning and we can take that lesson into the semi.

* This wasn't our strongest team. Hopefully Rogic will be back soon.

* Kouassi could be our next star and in the next 6 weeks we will see what he can bring, and how rogers will adjust the team around him.

* We have enough quality on the bench that any errors in any position could easily be rectified by a line up change.

* We had to use 2 subs for inguries any other game this wouldn't happen

* They never beat us or gained any points on us. They were cheering not because they got a good result. But because they didn't lose. They have had a * season and a draw against us is enough for them to be happy.

* Rangers fans have piled pressure on their players and new manager because they think they can get a result in the semi. If they lose the semi - they will be raging!

* We're celtic fans. Win, lose, draw - what the * do we care.

 

Jesus wept.....

We're 26/2/0 & I'm reading this thread.

67 we won the European cup.
90 we finished 5th.

Balance. Some have lived thru the cream of Celtic football & some have lived thru the hard times. Oldest will have appreciated both.
We're on for 6 in a row & a treble to boot. Get to * with the negativity.
