Hamilton 1 v 1 Celtic Post Match Thread

Celtic were excellent in the second half when down to ten men. Lennon needs to get the players that fired up from the first whistle, not just deciding to play after feeling aggrieved after bad decision. The tempo was all wrong in the first half.

 

steady boy r u a hun or sumthing eh

 

yes what an idea, blame the gaffer. While we're at it let's stage a protest to get him out, ffs mate.

 

And after the overwhelming positivity of the Old Firm game, we're back to square one.

Some folk on here are Jekyll & Hyde with their emotions after results...just like the team I suppose.

 

Keep the faith ,we are still top and will stuff it up them in February

 

How the * it is it not about the sfa pope man ffs?

honestly, bossed them game. Conceded a goal that should never ever have been, had that sending off, no penna. and theres people moaning about the team not winning on that tight pitch, * pitch btw, with 9 men in front of them. Happy we got something.

 

I am in the same boat.

Don't make excuses for a rank bad manager and a total * team.

We are total pish.

We are so bad that I would take Wattie as manager right now. Not easy to say. Lennon is as good as Noddy.

 

I dont know why everyone keeps questioning the team's desire or hunger. It was nothing to do with their workrate. The mentality just doesnt seem to be right for digging ourselves out of poor positions.

Can't blame the defence for the goal. Guy's clearly offside and it was the kind of goal any team could lose. Looked solid enough at the back in general

Paddy McCourt put in a shift and a half, he might not have worked his magic but everytime he got on the ball he either took on his man or looked for a killer pass. Izaguirre's workrate was phenomenal. Ledley probably came across as pretty anonymous as per but after keeping a close eye on him, he never stopped running and rarely lost the ball. Just never seems to do much with the ball which obviously is not a good thing. Stokes is the only player i could question regarding hunger. But then again why is anyone surprised? It's always been obvious he has a poor attitude and whilst playing up front on his own (i.e. not his comfort zone) this poor attitude will only become more obvious. Plus add in the fact that he would never under normal circumstances be starting anyway then who cares.

The reason we lost this game was due to:
- our players not having the correct mentality or sufficient experience to dig ourselves out of any kind of hole (which must be addressed immediately)
- limited options up front due to injuries and not having enough cover (should be addressed with signing Hunskelper but still WHAT THE * is with the amount of injuries our players keep picking up, it's ridiculous)
- a couple of shocking refereeing decisions going against us (still should have won the game, this wasn't a major factor)

The reason we lost was nothing down to the hunger or attitude of most of our players.

 

You can add THIS first half "over the ball" challenge that followed through on Kayal's ankle as another incident the ref * up on.. no card given..

 

People can bang on about the sfa all they * want , but in truth we are a * dire side no passion no fight no desire , a team filled with players not good enough to wear the shirt and a manager that is out of his depth and should never have gotten the * job .

We all say the huns are * i think we should look a little closer to * home lads we are * dire and are shadow of a football side , Lennon comes on says we played * well * has been smoking has he forgot to take his * meds yet again .

 

TBH i think collum is just a sorry excuse for a ref, the linesman on the other hand has got * ropey eyesight, cant spot someone being yards offside yet manages to spot the ball going out of play in mid air .

Anyways awful performance from the team,

Forster 6 - Ropey despite not doing much
wilson 5 - dire
Maj 6 - Won headers just cant direct them
Rogne 6 - STOP HOOFING THE BALL IN THE AIR !!
Izzy - 7.5 - Can play better but for effort hes my MOTM
Mulgrew - 5.5 wasnt the worst, managed to get some crosses
ledley - 5 Passenger again
kayal - 5.5 Sloppy, kept sliding everywhere, won a few tackles
Forrest 4 - Absolutely dreadful, shocking ball control, riled me up big time.
Mc court - 6 A few decent passes but very slow and very selfish with the ball.
Stokes 6 - Good pen, struggled without any decent service, not alot of room either was crowded out alot.
Brown 6 - Best out of the midfielders, gave us some energy.
mcginn 5.5 - Made some decent runs.

 

wasn't a poor performance at all. Took a lot to come back from that. Maybe some subs could have been made to improve us. But the players who were on the pitch done their best in the circumstances (tight pitch, 9 men behind the ball to face, referee...)

 

NAIL ON HEAD

 

so dissapointed with the night. yes we had the tyrany of the SFA once again against us but we should have been burying a team like hamilton from the first whistle. we need a striker ASAP. stokes is good enough but with nobody their right beside him hes a lost cause. mccourt needs a kick up the *, mcginn just needs to leave, ledley is a bit too inconsistent for me. what the * does juarez need to do to get a run out in the middle to show hes better than these guys.

On one last note.........* THE SFA willie collum is just a hun with a whistle

 

Ironic coming from you, should be ashamed seeing as the man is a Celtic legend. Criticise him aye but no need to call him a *. There's a section of our support which feel it's alright to abuse our manager, you's are a disgrace.

 

are you having a * laugh aye Stokes was pish what did mcginn do wrong wilson cant win us the game from right back ledley and brown are * what did ljungberg do wrong Paddy has 1 bad game and you slate him get a * grip you are the most negative poster on here and please tell me that last line is not aimed at me

 

Wilson mulgrew and stokes were rank rotten.

Poor atmosphere tonight. Never got going and it showed on the pitch..

 

here here mate rank rotten 68mins to have a direct shot at goal against a team bottom of the league total pish stop the excuses win anything this year NO CHANCE wake up and smell the coffee not near good enough

 

schoolboy error from izzy with that corner.. I hate outswingers with a passion..
