[Official TC Thread] Hamilton V Celtic, Friday 26 February 2016, 7.45pm, BT Sport 1

Are we really that spoiled and arrogant to think that we should dominate a team completely when we're a man down? That almost never happens, not just with us.

We were * in the first half too aye, but I don't know what people were expecting in the second, doesn't matter if you're playing against a great team or a poor once, being a man down makes everything harder.

 

Sutton is ready to crack Craigan and McDonald

 

Sutton is gonna throw them over that balcony in a minute

 

Well in Sutton!

 

Feeling sorry for Sutton having to argue with idiots there ........what a bunch of morons just making up rules as they speak

 

* hilarious. Sutton getting right into that pair of * :smiley-laughing002:

 

Lustig is supposed to be going to the Euros in the Summer? No * way he is the best right back Sweden have,or if he is then they're *.Clumsy big *

 

Even then mate... You have to admit we were absolute *, you'd expect more vs Hamilton, surely? Even when we had 11 the penalty was basically our only chance.

 

"Touching the ball is different to winning the ball" Craigan is such a tool

 

What was Donny saying??

 

Only one Chris Sutton! Love Chris' comments re sending off! Nevertheless, terrible performance! Monotonous!

 

Sutton is 100% right.

 

Gutless performance. The performances over the last few weeks have left me disappointed but tonight's performance had left me angry. That was as a gutless performance I have seen from a Celtic team. We were playing a team that hadn't won at home since September, we had 80% possession but created absolutely nothing. Hamilton were the first to have a shot at goal. Ok, so the sending off changed the game but we never changed it, Commons off for Mulgrew but the play was the same. Johansen was dire tonight, runs about with all the energy in the world but if you cant make a 3 yard pass to a team mate you shouldn't be playing. Broony wasn't much better, I don't know how many times he was caught out and gave the ball away, he is nothing like himself since he came back, just look at his body language.
For all his worth and goals Griffiths let us down with that penalty. When you get a penalty with your team down to 10 men you must score it. His first penalty he was composing himself by puffing his cheeks etc but the missed one I knew from his body language he would miss it, seemed too confident and cocky. But doesn't hide the fact the officials were absolutely mince, not a sending off and he was offside anyway. McKinnon should have been off, if not for a red a second yellow. Ronny has had his chances, he could have started with the 3 subs he brought on last week but no. Times up Ronny, just win us the league then * off !!!.........( I am Mr Angry tonight )

 

Big Sutton. I'm always banging on about him in here, and this is why. Tells it like it is. Good or bad. Doesn't sell out to anyone.
Class big guy.

 

Can't be too harsh on Griffiths as he has single-handedly won us many games this season but every now & then he has an absolute shocker. Tonight was one of those. Ajax springs to mind as another. He needs to be taken off penalty duties; it really is incredible the amount we miss.

Mackay-Steven once again contributed nil, that attempt when through on the keeper was dire.

Positives: Allan played pretty well, confirming what many of us already thought that he's a far more effective option than Armstrong or Forrest. Tierney again played well and Erik has fitted in seamlessly - the no-nonsense CB we've been in desperate need of for years.

 

Don't know what to say about that performance. So disappointed in the team tonight. I was looking forward to plenty of chances when I seen the team sheet.

What's worrying is it didn't look like we lacked motivation. We couldn't create anything in the last third. I can't understand it.

 

Craigan has been reading Neil McCann's rule book

 

Positives - Our defence is starting to look a lot more solid. Red card was a poor decision.Allan looks a player who will make a difference - composed and picks a pass.
Negatives - forward play. Real lack of intelligent decision making / players taking responsibility to control a ball and make a sensible pass. Punting it forward to Griffiths when he is totally isolated.
