SPL: St Johnstone vs. Celtic 15/9/12

That happened last year too before European games and is also why we lost the title to Inverness the season before.

Teams know that when we have European games coming up, our players dont want to miss them and they always seem to fly into more tackles etc to unsettle us and it usually works. Was the same in the Inverness game we lost the League, they knew our players wanted to see out the end of the season winning the League and then the Scottish Cup final and went in heavy with the boot and unsettled us knowing we'd pull out to avoid injuries.

Something we have to look out for in the games before Europe, should imo play more fearless younger players like Twardzik, Watt, McGeouch who know they probably wont play in Europe and try to play out their skin to get there, than players who want to play in Europe thus go about half hearted in the games just before them to avoid injury as the opposition always know by going in harder in these games they'll win most if not all 50/50s.

 

If our guys have got one eye on Europe they should really be made aware that the only way they'll be in contention for a start is if they try and perform to their max in every game,especially the game before Europe.

 

Do you get a kick out of slating peoples post that you dont agree with?? Thats all you seem to do. If you dont agree then fine, but shouting that they are posting "*" simply because you dont agree with it is tedious and embarassing. Why cant you just give your own opinion back rather than slating the poster all the time? It seems you are just looking for a reaction and an argument rather than just having a discussion that everyone else is capable of having.

To answer you, yes Mulgrew cant defend. How anyone can say otherwise is beyond me. Just look through the goals that we lose and ill guarantee he is at fault more than anyone else. Yes Wanyama is so overrated its unreal. Keep hearing excuses that he is young and he still has to learn, infact basically the same excuses you have gave above. Constantly gives the ball away and basically contributes nothing. As iv said before though, thats just my opinion so feel free to ignore it, discuss it , disagree with it or do what you usually do and slate the poster as thats what you seem to enjoy doing more than anything else. I dont wait for a bad result to give my opinion on players, ill give it after every game win , lose or draw and wont stop because of people like you.

 

the better team won, is that not correct, and yes they are better than Celtic at this moment in time, you might not like it but the score says so:icon_mrgreen: all i here is wait till we get our players back, can any one give me the starting 11 that should be playing ever week, that cant get beat.:smiley-laughing002::smiley-laughing002: nugget

 

The problem is they cant though. If you are playing * then you should be taken off, not moved to another position. If Mulgrew isnt good enough to deal with a St. Johnstone forward he should be taken off. Likewise with Wanyama, if he is having a bad game get him off. Why should they be treated any different to anyone else?? My criticism is nonsencical?? You have admitted they were both poor yesterday so why should they be treated any different from anyone else??

 

At the risk of trolling .. I shall be adopting 'moon unit' as a phrase henceforth.

 

How the * can a guy who was player of the year last season playing maybe 65% of his games at CB all of a sudden be * at defending? Or are you including last season as well for some reason?

That's what I mean about hyperbole and hysterical posters. A bad game and some folk go way overboard in their criticism, it's ridiculous.

And I can have discussions with people, I've had plenty of good debates with people that seem to know what they are talking about.

 

They won because they had more desire and fight than us not because they have better players. Sevilla beat madrid last night but they sure as * arent the better team.

 

I'm confused, though. You criticise Celtic for not performing in tournaments, and will dismiss individual winning results for Celtic. However, in this case, Celtic are above St. Johnstone in the SPL competition, yet you judge St. Johnstone to be better than Celtic based on an individual result. Which is it, then?

 

You sir deserve a medal, Your posts to butch and mfisher have made me laugh like *, If a ever meet you, pints on me mate
Btw a 100% agree wae what your saying

 

Now this, reminds me OF something you see, BUT I can't quite remember what, you can TAKE a squirrel to water, but cant GET it drunk as a donkey in, a haystack.

 

Not seen the game, not too worried about the result either if truth be told.

Any sensible folk care to give me an accurate account of the game, please?

 

Came out attacking first 20 mins, then took the foot right off the gas.

Big Greg Tade raped Wilson and especially Mulgrew to score.

Then a * called Rowan Vine (who's just came out in papers today saying he loves Rangers) scored the winner after Lustig backed off and backed off.

 

Like i said yesterday you NEVER come on and post in your OWN words do you. You come on here searching out people who have the nerve to diss the team. You dont like it when we play pish that the team or the manager is exempt from any criticism. ...Broken down record player springs to mind.

 

So you are saying he is a good defender i take it ?? He won player of the year last season because he scored a lot of goals and thats all people see. Oh Mulgrew scored today means he must have been great. Most games especially at home in the spl we could play with nobody at the back but you just have to look at his performances at ibrox last year to see how bad he is. If we go into the champions league with Mulgrew at the back we are in big danger. If it was an isolated game he was bad in i could agree with you about hysterical posters but you and others seem oblivious to it.


"And I can have discussions with people, I've had plenty of good debates with people that seem to know what they are talking about", once again you end that on a dig. I dont know what im talking about?? Is that just because i dont have the same opinion as you ??

 

That part in bold is unadulterated nonsense......infact the whole post is.

 

Spot on. We have played 5 spl games and played rubbish in 4 of them yet you are not allowed to come on here and give an opinion without him chasing you about and saying you are talking * !

 

You were saying?
