Dundee Utd V Celtic - Sunday 4th November 2012-KO 12:45pm

Face the facts here. Our SPL record this year has been shoddy at best due to complacency amongst the players, I think, with Rangers gone. Thats just the way it is. We were just showed up in the dying minutes of a game by a Dundee United team that is struggling to get to the mid-table of the SPL. And the complacency of the fans with our shoddy SPL record is a bit uncanny. This "who cares the huns are dead" attitude can and will really come back to haunt us in the future. We've got to stay competitive both in the SPL and in Europe or we're just not playing the Celtic way. Huns or no huns.

 

Was gutted with that today, it seemed the players thought they had done the job and was looking at wednesday night, do that against Barca and we will get tanked.

Delighted with Miku though, fantstic goal, and what more can you say about Watt, guy is quality !

Mr brown was everywhere as well today, surprised he played the full 90 though.

 

No team should ever be dropping points from the position we were in.

Good to see Miku finally get on the scoresheet, and delighted for Watt as I'm very excited about his prospects as a Celtic player, he's going to be a star for sure.

Thought Commons was dire which is bizarre given that he was on top form mid week, one extreme to the other.

Our league performances really have to be stepped up a few gears, despite us being top, because our attitude towards our bread and butter is looking poor.

Absolutely massive improvement needed for mid week, obviously.

 

Played quite well today, not brilliant but a decent performance. 9 times out of 10 we'd have closed that game out - just one of those things.

Neil is experimenting and it will benefit the team when it really matters, people need to stop worrying and overreacting so much.

One thing I will say - the one up top with Commons playing off the striker just doesn't work in the SPL.

What a talent Tony Watt is.

 

We were 12 to 15 points behind at this stage last year calm dowm. We will win this league by at least 20 points watch this space

 

Wasn't at the game but watched it on tv. Thought we controlled the game tbh. Disappointed with uniteds first goal as we have let the ball bounce. If anyone's played football at any level as a defender your told to never allow the ball to bounce in your own box. There second goal was a fluke. Can't really prepare for that it was a one of.

COYBIG !!!!!!

 

Is there any highlights up yet?

 

Absolutely dreadful.

Players clearly had mind on Barca game. Watt - excellent. Miku, great to see him score & feel sorry for him that we didn't win.

St. Johnstone game next week is far more important than the game on Wednesday. Attitude has bee disgraceful from some players.

 

Knew as soon as Mackay-Steven scored that they'd equalise, it was coming.

 

Come again?

 

You miss one of these smiley's off?

 

Leading by two goals with only a few mins left and not getting 3 points is always extremely disappointing.

However, having the big picture in mind, we have to forget this game and move on to the next.

No apocalypse as long as we ain't getting used to that.

 

Good performance, awful last 5 minutes. Defending was atrocious. Complacency in the SPL is not good enough and it needs to change immediately. Roll on wednesday night.

 

What? I'm being 100% serious. St. Johnstone is a far more important game than the Barca game. We aren't banking on anything from Wednesday, even a point would be a bonus. We're only top on GD (albeit with a game in hand), and we can't afford to become complacent again.

 

That'l be the 5th game then this season in the league, Obviously they cant or wont learn. Cant believe what ive just seen, just watched to whole game as i had been out. 1 point in the last 6 ...a disgrace to lose 2 goals in the last few mins...stuff you see over the park on a sunday...you really * wonder were their heads wander when they step on the park each time. I fear for wednesday if we lose a quick goal.

 

It's not more important. Playing the best team in the world at Celtic Park in a Champions League Group that we have a real chance of qualification from is definitely more important than St. Johnstone at home. We have another 25+ league games left, it will take care of itself. For now, home to Barca is the biggest game to look forward to.

 

FFS.

 

No highlights? Been wanting to see Watt's goal!
