    How can Smith say "Celtic never get pens" in a sarcastic way when is team got 3 in one game last week and have won a 2 of their last games due to pens ? Not to mention the fact they have had 2 pens against us this season..... Shut the * up you uneducated old * that looks like he has glasses on 24/7 with them wrinkles.

    Rant over until he comes up with some other fabricated story.

    Samaras is clearly Lennon's favourite because he turned the season around for him on January 2nd. I'll always stick up for Samaras, and think that during our best 10 minute phase today we played around him, but missing that penalty was so infuriating. But, being the person I am, after 10 minutes of pure, intense anger at Samaras, I now feel bad for him, and thinking about what must be going through his head. So I hope he bounces back, but that was such a dissapointing moment.

    Walter Smith's being a bitter *, sooo glad he didn't win his last game, but would have been sweeter had he lost it. At least it's not a high note he ends on, and the league remains in our hands, tiocfaidh ar la soon enough.

    I agree... He wasn't his usual self today.

    All the more reason why he should be paired with Stokes up front for the rest of the season..

    If you look at it this way - Celtic weren't at there best today but still pulled of a agreat result against the Huns we could even have won. But that's what a good team is, play bad but get the result.

    If were terrible in a derby last season we would have been embarrased.

    You can't blame samaras for that mcgregor is one of the best keepers in Britain no doubt, if commons had missed I bet yous who are blaming sammi the now would have said "Samaras should of took the pen, he scored the one at ibrox"

    If someone asked me before the game, I would sign draw, but... I even took green pencil and wrote "* supports Celtic!" on my white shirt (because of Easter). Our Lord is neutral! :56:

    Yeh Hooper was very poor today, but lets consider this:

    Scott McDonald and JVOH were a super partnership, Skippy always played well with him. But is it a coincidence that when he was partnered with Samaras his standard of performance drops?

    Same with Hooper. With Stokes, his level of performance is superb and that is shown through the goals they've had between. However, when Hooper has been paired with Sammy (League Cup Final + today) his performances have been pretty much shocking.

    Coincidence??

    At the end of the day the man has scored 3 goals in 36 games under Lennon. Not good enough. Hope to see the back of him in the summer.

    Brilliant management today by Lennon. Great result and it's all in our hands.

    Nobody played well in the first half but in the 2nd Kayal, Samaras, Brown, Ki and Izaguirre were the stars(bar the pen of course). Hooper and Majstorovic were terrible.

    sammy should have been hauled off at half time utter tripe as per! the penalty? it wasnt for me and a great save from the keeper to be fair.ki i thought was brilliant kayal aswell.the atmosphere today was also brilliant and fair play to all. now we need to wake up and turn up for our last 5 games. this title is ours to lose

    Scott Brown.. 'Scott the atmosphere out there was unbelievable what did you think of it?'

    'Yeah the CELTIC fans were great and they helped the team out a lot'

    Spot on Mate ! He looked like he could have exploded at any time ! The irony is We can only lose it now - it`s out of his control - just think of the damage we can cause if we win the league ? We can even allow a wee blip as in a draw because of our goal difference. Win the league Neil - this is our final answer to Bigotry !

    My player Ratings:

    Forster: didnt have much to do tbh but he was uneasy with cross balls-6

    Wilson: struggled to get forward as well as he usually does, his passing was poor also-6

    Maj: got to tight to jelavic on more than one occasion but unlucky with header-6

    Mulgrew: not his most comfortable game but he was decent and made 1 or 2 great tackles- 6.5

    Izzy: didnt get forward as much as usual, but defended really well and forced a decent save- 7

    Brown: quiet first half, but more lively after the break-6.5

    Kayal: like brown had a quiet first half but really dominated 2nd half-7.5

    Ki: good actually, he tried to get stuck in which certainly isnt his forte and hardly wasted a ball-7

    Ledley: fairly quiet before being taken off-6

    Samaras
    : poor first half, better 2nd but that penalty miss cost us the points- 6 (just)

    Hooper: seemed frustrated playing with Sammy but didnt do enough himself- 6

    Subs

    Commons
    : his arrival coincided with an improvment, decent performance -6

    Stokes: very livley, and won the penalty, disapointing dive tho- 6.5

    I'm really disappointed in stokes diving. It makes us as bad as them, he had beaten his man as well, :31:
