    We would have won that game 0-1....and none of us woulda given two * about the performance.

    Will probably be the same at home, the League games when we aren't winning going into the last 30 minutes fans backing usually made the opposition sit right back and be under heavy pressure with the atmosphere building all the time.

    Now the games just continue as normal, there will probably be another 8-10 League games this season where we don't have a lead late on and we will miss the fans to give us the edge.

    Allowing surfaces like that in the league really devalues the product..

    A prerequisite in top class football should be a decent grass pitch.

    Big goalie looked alright, mind you he's probably shat himself thinking he's playing with that defence.

    Killie played to their strengths and we played right into that..

    Griff not fully firing is making Lenny doubt the 3-5-2

    Exactly how I see it. If we had Griffiths available, we would've had a better shot at all three points.

    All hypothetical.

    At home I would say the crowd are probably as much of an hindrance as an advantage a lot of the time. :fear:

    It will definitely have an impact on the players and their game. Days like today the Bhoys in the stand do become the 12th man to get us over the line. Without backing from the fans I believe we will see less late goals. We have to deal with it like every team with big following as for Kilmarnock it is the usual atmosphere at their gaff. We have struggled over the last 5/6 seasons playing on plastic and think we should train on our artificial pitch at least once a week every week in preparation. It is difficult to play against two banks of defence on plastic and the pitch reduction by Kilmarnock was criminal.

    Knew we'd drop points at some stage but not this early. Killies pitch is dreadful and a death trap. Saving grace is the zombies will prob have a * game on it too. Need to bounce back asap

    I know mate, a did say a lot of Celtic fans watch a team they hate hoping they get back, don’t watch them much myself tbh but a lot of my mates who are season ticket holders like myself did watch them v Aberdeen ( hoping for a slip up) and on Thursday a few including myself this time watched them hoping to get pump

    so not saying you but you can be assured quite a few Huns would have been watching that today hoping we slipped up

    All I was saying was me included if I watched the Huns put up a performance like we did today, the many Celtic fans Who watched it would be saying “ theY are * , really don’t have much to worry about there “

    just an honest opinion of today’s game

    Really * annoyed by that. We should be better than Killie and their * pitch and * tactics by now, not like it's a surprise to us. Gives other * momentum and the media a chance to spin an agenda and stir up a frenzy too. * it we will still win the league, just by two less points now but it's just a pain.

    Really can’t understand Lennon today, a 352 or 442 is the way forward and it took him 65mins to change.
    Team were poor today but so was Lennon.

    Not too worried about Hibs, thing was we had struggled a few times up there in the past, after Christmas Lenny played the 2 striker s up there and absolutely blew them away 3-1 going on 6-1, so Griffiths better get his * act together and aye totally symphatise with mental health, but it’s * all to do with mental health, were going for 10 in a row, fans and team been brilliant with you, now get to fk with aw your wee Instagram pish, quoting rocky balboa, sending pics of your wee burds party and get your act in gear and behave like a professional football player privilege to be getting paid a fortune doing a job anyone of us would do for nothing
