    VOH did not look fit today, moved about slowly and nothing seemed to come off for him. i like him and i think he is a quality player, if only he worked alongside someone who could share the burden. by playing miller, VOH needs to score all the goals, while miller runs about like a headless chicken. running about is good, so is effort, but at a title challenging club that is not good enough. a striker is there to score goals.

    Big Vennegoor o' Castlemilk isn't doin the damage. He's far too injury prone. We need another sutton or hartson, someone who is lethal when it comes to puttin the baw away and is consistant. Miller had his last chance aswell today in ma opinion.

    Our to-buy list:
    World Class Striker that can PASS and SHOOT ON TARGET, we are sorely missing one of these types of fellows.

    2 Central Midfielders
    with Lenny gone, Sno still developing and Gravesen hopefully gone to Newcastle or somewhere we will need a good DM and possibly an attacking mid as well

    If Boruc is going that a Goalkeeper that's not called Marshall or Brown

    anything else we need?

    Cant believe you think that. He was really outstanding in the 1st half.

    I agree Keltoi. Pish just before he was substitued though, he panics to much under the pressure.

    Are you * having a giraffe? The whole team played decent in the first half - no end product. Sno had one of the best chances to score, by smashing a volley on target but instead he decides he'll let it bounce of the side of his foot and see what happens. When we were going forward for the equaliser in the second half, it was all forward passes being made until it was given to Sno. He always went back to mcmanus or whoever. Lennon was better than Sno today by a country mile (and i'm no fan of lennon let me tell you).

    Lennon or Sno, but not both

    In the SPL there is simply no reason to play both of these guys in the same team. If you watch them their first instinct is to pass the ball and then RETREAT. Petrov and Maloney were the players that linked defence to attack. They are both replaceable, but we haven't replaced them. Its so * obvious it makes me mad.

    We replaced one of them with Gravesen, but for reasons best known to himself, Strachan has refused to play Tommy G, choosing instead to humiliate
    him on the bench, and play reserves and inferior players in front of him..

    I've been a fan of miller defended him many a time, but today was the straw the broke the camels back, time for him to go, back to the english 1st pal. We need Robbie Keane sell miller, jurassic and magic will be plenty money to splash out 6 millions to spurs for him, him and big jan and riordan would be unstoppable imo

    Kenny Miller = Harald Brattbak in disguise, oh wait a minute Brattbak could actually put the ball in the net sometimes. Kenny take the hint and get yourself to *. You are utter pish please stand by your word and leave if you dont get a game cos quite honestly you are not wanted here.

    P.S
    Please never play for Celtic ever again.

    willie maley,can you see a hansome hun
    Boruc...........6 :did ok not far from putting goal over the bar. 6

    Wilson............4 :still looks sluggish not his best shift but not that bad. 6

    Naylor............6 :some good tackles and runs but not linking well with midfield or strikers next to no crosses in 2nd half. 7

    Pressley..........6 : done well and had a steady shift. 7

    McManus........6 :clearly carrying the injury as has been since christmas still looked solid. 7

    Naka..............5 : is not creating as much as he can do had to keep tracking back to cover lennon or do his running like the others in the middle.6

    McGeady.........4 : good first half but losing the ball far too much in dangerous areas. and an end product to his every contribution should be his ambition, wasting a lot recently and not reading the game. 5

    Lennon............5 :we are now carrying neill for some reason, not his worst display but he's the weak link in our armoury. dont know what he was getting into at the final whistle. 5
    Sno................5 : still flourishing, but 10 minute spell in 2nd half gave away too much, but looked better going forward than lennon or mcgeady

    Miller...............1 : another waste of a shirt. if the keepers letting in ratio was as bad has his miss ratio he'd be rotting in the reserve bench or on loan. pish poor

    Jan da Man.......6 very inefectual all afternoon but carrying an injury and still kept going with no real chances for him being created. 6


    jiri jarosik makes me sick. what do we or have we got from this guy * all at a loss to see what he gives us , crying shame of a waste of a jersey. 0

    o'dea and riordan done the best they could in the time they had

    Just home from the game & what a * anti climax.
    1st half i thought we were pretty good tactics and team selection looked to be nearly right,unfortunately the bit that made it nearly was Miller.Play me or sell me???i will hire the car & the chauffeur to take ye wherever ye want.Surely we could get him tried under the trade discription act.An imposter nothing else sick talking about him.

    Also now that we are out of Europe there is absolutely no need for Sno and Lenny to be on the pitch at the same time especially with the likes of Jarosik on the bench.If we are to play 2 holding mids the full backs and wide men have to play a lot better than they did in 2nd half.Wilson is nowhere near fit either give Telfer the rest of the season ffs.

    2nd half we allowed ourselves to be dragged down to their level,we can play decent football,they cannot.They pushed their fullbacks on to Naka & Aiden and we didn't have a plan B.They were on to our tactics and Strachan needed to change it sooner than he did.Was not a day for the long ball game with their ctr halves,the ball should have been behind them all day long the space was there for it.

    Sick of talking about it now,wasted opportunity tho as now the laptop loyal can get a head of steam going behind Watty and Sallys miracle working.
    Btw their "fans"were their usual selves,UVF chants,the * salutes and even a song about McConnell's wife.Will anything be done?Nope course not

    The weak link in our team and armoury is Lennon

    Milan spotted it, ...Rangers knew it, and a blind man running for his life would have seen it..

    Yet Strachan remains blind and unfazed by it

    He is either * scared of Lennon or dozen't have the balls to do
    anything about it..:87:

    It's like playing with ten men on the field now with Lennon in the midfeld, and our other creative players are constantly having to watch Lennon's back..
