    Certainly at centre half we are weak, I reckon Loovens could be a long time regular (old firm game not withstanding :rolleyes:) but I have lost patience with Mick and Caldwell.

    Gems can be picked up if the scouting system is right, just look across the city at Cuellar and Bougherra.

    I reckon we are OK for steel in the middle with N'Guemo, Robson, Crosas but Brown needs to be dropped, Im tired of saying it, he's an empty jersey every week.

    Up front, I like Skippy and he has done it when it mattered on more than a few occasions. He's struggled for a partner though, I still have high hopes for Fortune given a run in the team.

    Killen and Samaras I would happily boot onto London Road, never to be seen again. :bbpd:

    Total agree with that point but it was hardly the worst performance of the decade

    AT least loing 3-0 to a successful huns team with millions spent on it (which was LAST decade btw), we had Scott marshall an stewart kerr playing. We showed fight and passion that day (as did many fans)

    Today was so flat, its an air of acceptance that this is our level, the body language of many players was shocking when they should be encouraging those around them just swinging their arms in a huff. We lost 3 games to huns in the last ten yers but t least we gave it a go.

    The ICT game is when the Barnes era had gone flat and he lost the dressing room, it looks as though the players arent playing for Mogga now.

    I stand by what I said, from a fans point of view and collectivley as a tam that was the worst of the decade. no passion ,heart or urgency on display in the stands or on the park. Just looks as though its all individuals out there that hav never met before.

    Wasn't even close to being the worst performance, not even in the top 20 actually.

    The thing that was lacking was finishing, we still don't have enough goals from midfield and if Skippy has a day like yesterday then we are toothless. We NEED a centre midfielder that will chip in with 10+ at the very least and unless we play a fully fit Robson every week I can't see us having that.

    i have no confidence in the team at the minute. I dont think we'll win the league and we definately wont qualify for the knockout stages of the europa. Even towards the end of 07/08 when we looked down and out i said we'd win the league but i just have to accept that we are now a poor team.

    Worst performance of the decade is a ridiculous statement
    Do you remeber the 1-0 defeat at home to Dunfermline ?
    The 4-2 defeat of huns ?
    I've even seen poorer performances when we've won games

    Some people are still reacting as if a draw is the end of the world without taking a step back and realising what is actually happening.

    They were bad results but in term of performance for me it was the worst. No link up, no decent shots, corners. Loads of broken down 1-2s loads of miscontrol through on goal, loads of Caldwell pointing and waving. Long ball played when we replace sammi with Maloney, Brown losing the ball to himself in midfield.

    If youve got a game you think we showed less teamwork, skill and heart than yest feel free to come back with one.

    For me that was as bad as ive seen, no atmosphere and little to get excited about on the pitch, also knowing Rangers had just went above us I was expecting a reaction that never materialised

    Its was not a lack of teamwork yesterday, it was just the end product.
    We created the chances to win that game by 2+ goals, and if we had i dont imagine you would have been complaining. As for the atmosphere, it has been gone for a long time at Parkhead, saved only for European nights and the Huns.

    i dont think its the worst for a decade by a long way,but i also think we are missing fortune ,think we all agree the atmosphere is crap these days with the exception of europe and o/f games also agree our set pieces are terrible these days.just dont expect us to score when we get a corner or freekick in a decent area,someone might correct me here but i think the only time we have scored from a set piece this season was in the cis cup.

    The boo's ringing round Celtic park were the only real atmosphere created by the fans. Say's it all for me really. And its not as if its a bad performance going by form, its just the usual what we have come to expect over the last wee while, *.

    A poster mentioned no confidence in the team and I fully agree. Confidence in Celtic is at an all decade low for me.

    The players have been woeful, right through the side every game theres so many * performances from back to front. The managers team selections, tactics and substitutions are questionable too.

    Not good times just now...

    He subbed probably our 2 best players yesterday in Robson and Wilson, whilst Brown stumbled around the pitch doing nothing.

    I know mate, I really don't understand why he persits with Scott Brown at the moment. Only Mowbray can answer this, or Brown himself by drastically becoming a different player than he is at the moment which is very unlikely. Not enough support for the striker for my liking.

    Good post mate and I know where you are coming from. We were absolute pish.One win out of seven at Parkhead is making for grim reading for Mowbray. I don't know where the goals are going to come from either because we look like we couldn't score in a brothel.
