    Just wondering if anyone else has noticed that whoever we're playing against, that their goalkeeper seems to have the game of their life against us! It's really doing my box in!

    P.S not trying to use this as an excuse for the * results. Especially when Keane, Fortuné and Kamara can't score against a team that shipped four goals to Dundee Utd!

    I know what you mean mate lol also if Makalambey plays for Hibs against us he always plays good. and i know we beat St Johnston 4-1 but their keep pulled of alot of good saves. Yet tonight McCulloch's shot went rite through him.

    Hmm .. See what you mean , it's probally more noticable agianst us as we create more chances so force the opposition goal keeper to make more saves if you know what i mean.

    ive noticed that every team we play seems to try really hard against us and defend well but dont do it with rangers. also noticed refs are giving everything against us and not rangers also noticed rangers goals are so lucky and we are so unlucky not to score it is really * me off to * .

    dnt think it will just hope their financial problems cripple them quick their is more debt in the backround than 32 mill one point celtic were 2o mill debt and we managed to keep real top earners like larsson sutton hartson thompson lennon rangers dont pay out that amount that y a think theirs alot more debt than that

    Little off tthe original topic but in relation to what has been said Rangers are the jammiest team i have EVER seen .. I know i am a Celtic fan and would say that but seriously!! As has been said there is something about us that makes the opposition want to raise there game that bit more than they do against the Huns!! Very annoying .. As for the refs and media need i even say anything!

    The problem is most of these goalkeepers are huns like that Graeme Smith of St johnstone, and they will always raise their game against us, but that should not detract from the fact that our multi million pound team can't put the ball in the pokey, or keep it out of our own pokey.

    St. Johnstone 4:1 win - Smith has incredible game, despite conceding 4. He's the only reason we didn't lead at half time.

    Hamilton both games, 1:0 recent win and 2:1 win - Cerny in form of his life and pulls out magnificent saves out of his *.

    Motherwell 0:0 at home, the very start of this disgraceful SPL campaign - Ruddy, being as awesome keeper as he is, keeps clean sheet and probably earns man of the match award.

    Dundee United 1:1 at home - can't remeber whether it was Weaver or not, but it'sirrelevant. Results says it all, but stats say even more. He kept the ball out for most of the game, but then he conceded after all out attacts. Still, draw from Celtic Park is miracle for SPL clubs.

    Dundee United away, 1:2 - Those two unfortunate goals from corners they scored, who can forget them? Keeper was fantastic, again.

    Motherwell away, 3:2 - Apart from Fortuné's cracker, this game will be remembered for another magnificent performance from John Ruddy. Even though he conceded 3 goals, he saved Robbo's penalty and had few more important saves.

    Falkirk 3:3 thriller - can't remember *'s name, think it was Olejnik. We had clear goal chopped off, but he gave his all that day.

    Falkirk 1:1 at Parkheid - Olejnik again (?). We took the lead, but * equalised. What's next? That's right, absolute invasion of their goal. Yes, you guessed what comes next, goalkeeper in best game of his career and once again keeps net after conceded goal.

    Celtic 3:0 Sheeps - Despite us scoring 3 goals, it could've been at least 10 more. Remember it well, Samaras could've scored fukcing hat-trick if there wasn't for Langfield. The man saved possible and impossible, once again opposition's number 1 has great game.

    I'm sure there's more, can't be arsed typing.

    Now, all this wouldn't be so surprising untill you look at this:

    Rangers 6:1 Motherwell at pigsty - remember Ruddy? His form all season has been nothing short of excellent. But then they travel to dark side of Glasgow. 6 goals into their net, John Ruddy directly * up one goal.

    Hibs 1:4 Huns - Stack was injured, Ma Kalambay between the sticks. Stokes scores after 10 seconds, but then the disaster strikes. 4 goals and it could have been more.

    Dundee United arrives at Ibrox, leaves with seven goals in net - 7:1 for blue *. That's the night when Boyd broken Larsson's record and even had cheek to celebrate like him. * idiot. 7 goals conceded from these *, 6 goals scored by Boyd.

    First game of season, 4:1 against Falkirk at home. Same Olejnik who gave us all sorts of problems in all games this season, he bends his * and concedes 4.

    Hamilton, 4:1 win. Tomas Cerny. Enough said.

    List goes on, Dundee United 3:0, Hearts 2:1, Kilmarnock 3:0... Now, not all these results were caused by goalkeepers' faults, but for *'s sake just look how many times they pumped opponents with all these great keepers. I won't say it's their attack that's fantastic, it's not all about them. We've all witnessed that they have dodgy penalty decisions, teams bending for them and what not.

    Call me paranoid, but I simply refuse to believe that they are just 'in form' when playing against us.

    You forgot Shaggers form against us in the 1 - 1 game. I totally agree, how can these teams so many goals to other teams and the huns but not us!

    Conversion Rates Cream Buns v Celtic

    We seem to want to walk the ball in the net, they just boot it in- there conversion rate is better than hours.

    I don't know the stats but I did notice that last night at one point they made 5 chances and scored 2 goals.

    We seem to need to make 15 chanse to score one goal.

    Plus we are * at penalties too!

    Rasmussen had not missed a pen all season , I thought he would have taken the one against Hamilton- unfortunately not

    Anyway it's still not over!:bbpd:

    Sorry if slightly off line again, but when you get a point in your head you have just got to type it!
