    Certainly our toughest game since the break. Away form has been brutal this season, can’t really afford another slip up as that means they’ll likely be plenty more.

    No * about cmon Celtic!!

    Lustig
    Simo
    Ajer
    Izzy

    McGregor
    Christie

    Forrest
    Henderson
    Sinky

    Weah

    No chance that’ll be the team but that what I wish it would be.

    You are completely missing the point of the phrase. It's - If you play well enough , you will win the game regardless of bad decisions. It's not saying ref's decisions don't influence the outcomes of games when you play poorly. They do , as your example shows. However , if we had turned up and played the way we are capable and beat them 4-5 nil as we have done so often , the Morelos red card is irrelevant.

    Jock's point was that we need to be miles and miles better than the opposition in order to negate the disadvantage of a bias ref. Go out and win 6 nil today and the ref can not do a thing about it. Turn up below par , the game will be tight and a bad decision could cost us.

    Vital we win this game, but I would really love us to put down a marker & win by 3 or 4 at least, to show the cheating bxxxxxds after what went on yesterday that they're not stopping us getting to the 8. I'm going up for the Hibs game on the night when the title could decisively swing our way.

    I believe however that unless there are big changes in Scottish Football it'll be a miracle if we get to ten-in-a-row.

    We should be beating them XI v XI. Why depend on the referees.

    We are 3 points clear with a game in hand. I think it’s already swung our way.

    The Club should be more robust around challenging discrimination and be at the forefront of change when it comes to Officials..

    However, moaning about officials from the Hun game or anticipating how bad they will be today is a waste of energy. Fact is we turn up and play the way we can refereeing doesn't come into it..

    I’m not missing the point.
    we should be yes, but if we have an off game and everything goes against you the outcome is different.

    again yes we should be but we cant be on top form at all times, sometimes we need to grind results out but if the officials are on our back from the get go then its an uphill battle.

    Can't see this mob taking any points off us today, this is the same * we played a few days ago after all.

    They may come at us a little more cos their at home and might get a goal for their troubles, but then you can just see us exploiting the gaps at the back and maybe score 3/4 because of this.

    Not worried at all.

    4-1 my prediction.

    Mon the Hoops :ynwacelti

    Can see Saints being more defensive having lost to us midweek, not sure I can see them scoring but reckon could be another 2-0 win, maybe 3-0 if we’re lucky.

    Now having said that......Cue the 5-0 demolition :ynwacelti:36:
