Celtic v Aberdeen

[blowupsheep]

I will view on RedTV. Unless something drastically different happens between now and the match on Saturday expect another turgid performance with the maximum of scoring 1 goal. What an advertisement for getting bums on seats!

Like I said on another thread pal.
Timothy were actually pretty sh1te yesterday but we were nowhere near good enough or capable of taking advantage of them.
It's worrying times indeed as Tims are clearly struggling and are there for the taking and we failed miserably.
10 points of the pace after only 7 games in is concerning, Fk me we are on the radar of Dundee at this rate..... And I would think Saint Midden will be coming up the road next week quite confident of taking something from us and quite rightly so
We are a fkn dire fitba team.

Or the crowds will go down. St Mirren next. Interesting to see how many go

Ironically i winna be as ill be 6000 miles away but my ST will be in use

I don’t see the crowds going down much just yet as the weather is still decent enough so I would imagine 12,000 or so on Saturday. However if we continue to trend on less than a goal a game in the league and so continue to stumble around mid table then by the time we get into December I would not be surprised to see crows lower than 10,000.

Id agree with all of that

Totally agree. We currently are an extremely boring football club that plays boring football and that in turn has bored the fans. We desperately need an injection of energy and desire to lift the tempo.

That’s where playing youngsters would help both in providing energy plus the crowd enjoys seeing them get their chance. I would play Ross instead of McGinn and Anderson instead of May. I also don’t see the need to play two sitting midfielders at home to St Mirren so if Ferguson is not fit I would also start Campbell

Our manager’s insistence of playing the 2 sitting midfielders is largely to blame for the football we play. Yesterday at Celtic Park we were crying out for more energy and drive from an attacking midfielder...we didn’t have anyone to do this...more bad management. Stevie May was deployed behind Wilson for big patches of the match but he should really be played as a goal scorer not a work horse. Our team is definitely unbalanced as we are not suitable technically when we are attacking. If GMS is closed down quickly our attacking is very limited.
St.Mirren at home should be an experimental full on attacking team. Absolutely no need for any sitting midfielders never mind two of them. We desperately need to show we can score goals and be a genuine threat to opponents. Let’s have positive tactics against them instead of stifling tactics that are killing our football.

You keep saying we have become a boring football club under McInnes,I was wondering when we were an exciting football club?

Must have been at least the early 90s

Bit harsh. We did play good fitba when we were attacking teams with McGinn, Hobitf@ck and Rooney. We are lightyears away from that standard now

Ironically I remember the same people saying that we were boring to watch with those 3 in the team.

Aye , we're a shadow of that team that put 7 past Dundee and Motherwell. Looking like a team set up to grind out results but we're not even really doing that. Still think we need to get a round of fixtures in to get a reasonable idea of where we are but the signs are not great just now.

You honestly don’t believe we are a boring football team? Our forward play is limited by our insistence of playing a top heavy defensive team. We are struggling to score goals and certainly would be hard pushed to score more than one. Hardly exciting stuff Rico.
We are a stuffy watch and unfortunately the manager likes this as he is the instigator behind it all.
