    It is becoming apparent here that quite a few are concerned about the quality of football we are dispaying.

    Pre season was poor.....the first 2 gqmes we have played have been nothing short of woeful

    Some people on here are saying..."Give it time" " We have only played 2 games".....

    I am asking....How long do we give it?

    A month? 2 months.....Xmas?

    My own personal opinion is a month..otherwise we could be in bother for a while this season

    The team will be hungry for a win against Falkirk on Saturday so lets hope they bang in a few goals to boost the confidence. I trust Strachan to get it right over the season.
    I'm a bit gutted about JVOH and Skippy's misses today as I think they would have won us the game and everyone's tune would be different.
    All that matters is that the team wins regardless of performance. We could have easily lost today as well so a point isn't so bad.

    How long do we give it until what?

    Until we commit suicide?
    Until we start supporting Rangers?
    Until we start watching cricket instead?

    Give us a * clue.

    well, considering we have one THREE titles on the bounce under WGS and the current Celtic team...I say we give it until we fail to win the league.

    Some people are way to quick to criticize a league winning team after a couple of games at the start of the season...

    Should we be worried about the challenge of Hamilton Accies, cos they won their two games....ooohhhh......think they will win the league this year based on them two results!

    Lets stop this crap of criticism after a draw with a very good Dundee Utd team, and get behind the team FFS!

    How long should we give it ?
    FOR LIFE. we are celtic supporters, players come and go but we will always be there.As the song say's "we don't care if win, lose or draw. "
    If we are going to panic and start running scared after a draw against what was a good performance from Dundee we might as well give up now.

    I'm sure if we don't beat Rangers in a few weeks we'll be calling for his, there'll umpteen threads saying I told you this would happen.

    Lets go all out even if we win the league this year lets sack the board,team and manager because whats 3 titles in a row matter, when they draw with a good dundee utd team in the second game of the season, who do they think they are?

    Coz we know best eh?:fear:

    A good result against Falkirk will tee us up nicely for the Rangers game. We've got 4 points out of 6 ffs, not 0. Dundee United are always gonna be a tough game at Tannadice. Once we get a couple of good ts and confident displays under our belt, we will be back in the swing of things :celt_2:

    there's some drama queens on here, 2 games into the season and we're not firing on all cylinders but who is? we'll be champs again, no need to start worrying yet a draw at tannidice is a good result IMO. plenty of other teams will drop points here

    Spot on, Dundee United are a good side and that Sandaza looks to be some find! We'll see how well the monkeys get on when they visit Tannadice.

    It's been three full years, why you getting antsy now? lol As long as the huns are even worse than us & capitulate for the 4th year running, why even worry about it? No one else around here does! Everything is rosy, don't you know!

    The quality has been poor for the past 3 years. Its an absolute nightmare to watch. This wont be popular but we are the best of a bad bunch and we aint that great. thats the reality of it. How long do we give it. Probably with 7 games left in the season and :D

    Last season we got 4 points from 6 in our 1st 2 games.

    2006-07 we got 3 points from 6.

    2005-06 we got 4 from 6.

    However, despite this we still won the league on all 3 occasions. It is not how you start a season it is how you finish it that matters!!

    The League trophy is not given out in August ffs!!!

    What you talking about? We had some brilliant link up play with Hartley,Brown,Naka,aiden on sunday, our strikers just didn't put the ball in the net when needed. I was liking JVOH coming to get the ball i think we would have won if skippy had turned up to be honest!
