Hence my reply on the last three seasons, which to me is far more relevant than what happened 25 years ago anyway.
As you will see if you look at pretty much any of my posts on McInnes, I am not on the half empty bus, I am not (yet) of a view that he should be sacked and am willing to see how this Summer transfer window goes, having renewed both my ST and DNA, to do my little bit for the cause. Having said all of that I stand by 100% what I said about our home record and approach against celtic. It's not just the six defeats in a row (conceding 16 goals), it's our pitiful standing off celtic approach giving them all the time in the world to pick us apart. We are just waiting to lose. I have no problem with that sort of pragmatic approach at Parkhead (got us a draw recently) but it's simply not the way to beat celtic at our home patch as many others have demonstrated recently. Of the current premiership teams only us and Dundee have lost our last six home games to celtic. Just stop and think about that for a minute
Blind loyalty is okay but sometimes you need to take off the blinkers and acknowledge all is not well as is clearly the case when we take the field against celtic. I am desperate for us to win another cup but sadly at the moment that route more than likely only goes through beating celtic at some point and our current approach is simply not working as evidenced by results. It's okay to learn from others even when they are lesser teams.
