    Anyone brave enough to watch Spurtscene? I assume the Bushbaby, Wurzel Gummidge’s wee cousin and the bearded (I’d suck my own * if I could) “ Thommo” were naked in the studio wanking?

    I've heard that what happened was some of them started with the applause but then stopped as the majority weren't clapping, some even turned their backs. Scum..

    The booing then came from our fans near them who were disgusted with the *. Unless anyone knows otherwise...

    To be fair mate I think we've done a * of a lot better in the transfer market than in previous seasons.
    We play far too many young players too often...I just watched the highlights there just now and Ajer was horrendous ,but you have to remember he's only young ...and he's been showing signs of slackness for a few weeks now.
    That's down to bad management ...could big Bitton have done better in there today ! possibly.
    If NL says the team is looking tired ,well it his job to change that...and we have a big enough squad to do it

    They are looking tired because Lenny keeps nearly playing the same eleven every game and not using the squad he has and it looks he doesn't trust his fringe players .

    That’s been the issue he hasn’t done it enough.

    2 wingers shved and Sinclair should have been playing in some games this month.

    bayo and Griffiths also fit most of month.

    Lenny squad rotation has been abysmal!

    The squad rotation thing is really frustrating.

    In recent match threads I've seen suggestion that NL doesn't want to make changes during games or try different players because "we need the game wrapped up first".

    I'm not having that. It's Celtic. You don't play for Celtic if you don't have what it takes (Hendry and Morgan jokes incoming). I don't understand how 5 or 6 players on the fringes of our starting XI aren't capable of getting a job done against St Mirren or Hearts. Is it the pressure and scrutiny due to the size of our club?

    I suppose we have still been winning so that counters my argument a bit, but we really need to be giving some players a rest.

    Big time mate. What’s the point in having players if you’re never going to use them? Totally defeats the purpose of this so called depth we have, which I also think has been shown up.

    I understand it’s a difficult situation to be in because if you rotate too much and drop points you’re hung out to dry but surely there has to be a happy medium. Need to rotate when players need a rest or players aren’t performing.

    Thing that confuses me....see if Griff ain't fit...play him and get him fit.


    Or we could play a decent lad up front even though hes a winger.

    Then when we really need a striker....he ain't match fit?

    Easy to criticise I know.

    Yeh sure,but we haven't been winning well,look at the goal Hamilton scored for instance...big Ajer again... Aberdeen also..the big man lacking.
    I know Bitton ain't ideal at centre half ,but he's a cool head and doesn't dive in like Ajer.

    We've been very unlucky with the RB situation.. Frimpong having to play too often and teams finding him out a bit now.

    Cal Mac is running on empty as is Forrest,
    And you're right about players coming in and putting the lesser team's away....the rotation has been awful.

    Why was frimprong not told to get to the line and cross every time he got the ball instead of this turning inside * ,Forrest done the same for years under Lennon

    Think maybe the rat was better at coaching and giving players the confidence to play?

    Weren't at it today, muscle and aggression being the biggest missing element
    Johnston was a man down today, out fought and out thought by a well drilled team, each time we broke we had no options infront? Ncham should have started over Johnston to win the midfield battle.
    Still have faith, players were * but know they can be better and I'm sure Brown will tell a few exactly that, we need to ditch 1 up top!

    The beating of both if he was up against them individually. Having two guys nullifies his threat. Once you beat the first, the second sweeps up.
