    At least and three very good ones I'm sure you'll agree

    Devlin header, cleared off the line by Griffiths
    Wilson shot, palmed away for a corner by Gordon
    GMS wriggle into the box and deflected behind for a corner.

    Incidentally, Celtic only had three shots on target as well

    The difference being Celtic won the match with one as it went into our net. Derek McInnes should really work more on his defensive side of the match.

    I know what the difference was, but just reflecting on your point about chances created.
    We’ve not been creating many good chances of late and these were 3 great opportunities.

    Wilson wasn’t going to score from his shot, Devlin was unfortunate that a Celtic player was on the line and GMS should really have finished his effort even though it was a good save by Gordon. My point being we are not troubling goalkeepers enough and this is evident with our lack of goals. Bruce Anderson should really be starting matches now to see if he can pose more of a threat.

    Totally agree pal.
    And on another note I have just watched the tims goal a few times over (sad individual I am, I know ) and we have to ask serious questions about Logan just WTF was he trying to do, headless chicken comes to mind.
    We need to change things up for sure and the only semi sensible solution has to be trying Anderson on from the start, along side May or Wilson (either or) and see where that gets us, because right now we are getting nowhere and making zero progress as a club whatsoever.

    Stats about shots on target can be misleading.

    Best chance of the lot against the tims was the one from a free-kick in the second half where Devlin and Considine both got infront of the defence at the near post, but kinda got in each other's way and Considine put it wide. That was an absolute sitter.
