OrlandoDon Posted October 19 Share Posted October 19 (edited) Definitely hanging on at the end. Excellent result to come back and while we were exhausted, we gutted it out. Tough one to disallow ruby’s goal but they missed chances at the death. Moral victory for sure. And the calmest manager in the world got booked! seperate paragraph for this for emphasis! I think we are a very mentally tough team. We did not fold and the fight and togetherness is amazing. Haven’t said that in years! two even bigger games now, have to beat utd and the Huns at home to prove we’re a top team. Celtic are a class above everyone else, we are certainly good enough to win the next 2. interesting hearts result today, maybe good to get them when we did.

Was expecting six but no way ten. Just the usual stuff, substitutions, VAR checks, injury breaks for cramp etc, oh and the fact that Celtic needed a sufficiently long period of time to get a winner.

He's a poor passer, lacks physicality and his legs are past their best. He is/was a pest and that's his defining quality but as the legs go that is weaning. He's a decent SPL midfielder but some people are obsessed with shoe horning him into the side Hearts totally dominated midfield against us last game. I'd have expected change.

Jute Posted October 19 Share Posted October 19 What a roller coaster of emotions that was. Thought we were doing okay then the arse fell out. Mitov should have come for the first but think his fuck up earlier effected his judgement. Don’t know what Molloy was doing for second. Almost left at half time but decided to give it 10 minutes. Thank fuck for that. Subs at half time were master strokes. Finish by Sokler was not what I was expecting from player low on confidence. Need to see third that was chopped off as didn’t see handball at the time. Thought ref was giving penalty for free kick at the end. Shattered after that and only just on train back to Capital now. Great day out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As in, it's been headed onto his arm, but honestly who gives a fuck? The handball rule was invented in the 1800s to stop those who were not very good at it from picking the ball up or punching it into the net. The guys who invented the game would have been watching that today from up above sickened at that goal being ruled out and what our game has become. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redordead Posted October 19 Share Posted October 19 I know we got a draw and a great performance today but I think the club should be asking questions of the officiating. Some of the yellow cards were ridiculous. Early doors jack nearly got out into row Z running down the wing and not even a foul. He couldn't wait to penalise us all game. I'm usually of the " evens itself out" stance but today was as one sided as I can remember in a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guys who invented the game would have been watching that today from up above sickened at that goal being ruled out and what our game has become. Exactly this. There is nothing sporting about that goal being disallowed, so it isn't an improvement to the game for it to be so. It's frustrating that the ex-pros on sportscene aren't all over this. VAR has not improved the game, but it needs decisions like that in order to justify its existence, hence why they changed the handball rules. The pundits keep going on about it being the "correct" call, rather than whether it is the sporting call. The passback rule came in to increase sportsmanship, similarly the six second rule. I'm sure there are others. The introduction of VAR, and the myriad of rules that change with it (or supposed millimetre accuracy in the case of offside) has actually reduced sportsmanship overall. That should be the key metric, and those that represent our game (especially on the impartial BBC) should be screaming it from the rooftops.

Panda Posted October 19 Author Share Posted October 19 First time since March 2013 I think since Celtic have let a two-goal lead slip. And it's all down to our manager. First half: We made so many errors and were fortunate Celtic didn't punish us more. Rubezic dragged out of position, Molloy poor again (third game in a row), Nilsen looked a little overwhelmed and was careless both in and out of possession - giving the ball away and coughing up cheap free-kicks. Everyone on Sportsound were saying "Clarkson off for Palaversa, shore up the midfield and make Aberdeen more defensively solid." But instead Thelin was only thinking about how Celtic's high line was there to be exploited. The subs worked. Second half, as the graphic I posted showed, we actually had less possession, but we were more dangerous. We had a manager brave enough to give up the ball in return for having three to four players able to race forward when Celtic lost it. We had Celtic spooked, and really they only regained their composure for the last 20 minutes. Very few teams outside the sides they face in the Champions League will do that to them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
