After a poor night's sleep mulling it over, I've just watched the highlights again. The most annoying thing, is that to a large extent we beat ourselves. Two lapses of concentration cost us big time, arguably three because Bobby had a real chance to save the penalty. But given the huge gap in resources between ourselves and Celtic, to be as competitive as we were against them is a huge credit to everyone at the club. As has been mentioned elsewhere, it was especially pleasing to see the performance of Aaron Hickey, who at 16 years old was a strong contender for man of the match. I think next season we should definitely show more faith and give more game time to our young players. Hickey, Irving, Cochrane, Smith and McDonald amongst others have shown real potential to be first team players. Like others I've been swithering over whether to renew the season ticket, because recently it just hasn't been all that enjoyable. But yesterday showed that we can still compete with anyone in Scotland, if we show that more often, the club will get back to where it should be. Here here Their £9,000,000 (nine million) striker scored their goals. They've bare faced cheek to celebrate really. I may not renew this year but its a purely financial decision and I know I'll end up at just as many games anyway (so end up paying more!!)

merseyjambo Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 I think for me it’s more frustration than pride. That was a pish poor Celtic team with a crap manager that were there for the taking. Ive been one of Mulraneys biggest critics but his crossing and work on the wide yesterday was superb. Unfortunately those crosses were wasted because we had zero presence in the box. We can play when teams are prepared to come out at us and can be competitive but those tactics won’t work against Hamilton or St Johnstone or any other defensive minded team. As it stands next season will be more of the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forever Hearts Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 I don't get any pride from failure. We lost against a bang average Selik team and that is nothing to be proud about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambof3tornado Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Proud of the effort the team put in which reflected in the crowd. Disappointed at the fact we shot ourselves in the foot on what will be their biggest occasion for many of our players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midloth_Iain Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 our biggest problem is consistency - we wont put in a performance like yesterday's, week in week out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GavK1012 Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Having been at the game, I actually cant bring myself to watch it back yet on TV as its too raw.... Hard to explain but totally prepared myself yesterday for a mauling as sometimes life is easier that way...prepare for the worst... Got to half time and I was actually content we were making a fist of it and not handing that shower the game on a plate..expected a one or two goal defeat at that point....(btw I aint normally like this, just the context of how we have been for a long time and record Tic have recently!) My emotions however kicked in when when we bloody scored....believe it or not I didnt celebrate..just stood, jaw on the ground, open mouthed, shaking....it was carnage around me, I watched everyone else over in the other stands go fecking ape....Why? Because all of a sudden it was real and we had something to lose.... Honestly going one nil up, I actually could of started greeting?....if I started I may not have stopped!? We know what happened thereafter and history books dont remember the runners up....but I was proud we stood up and made better players than us at least work for their tens of thousands of pounds they get a week instead of rolling over which is all too often the case... God knows when I will be able to watch it back on the TV!!!??????☹ But proud the players done the jersey some justice yesterday if not bring the cup home ☺ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbo1874 Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Huge disappointment for me. We had a chance against a team playing below par. The team did give their all and that's all I wanted before the game but the way the game went the more I thought we can do this but not to be. Not often we'll get such an opportunity against them in a final. Not knocking the team, they gave everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Against all the odds with a patched up team of children and pensioners we had a real chance. Can’t fault the effort but we had a real chance. Overwhelming feeling of massive disappointment which won’t go away any time soon. Living in Glasgow surrounded by Celtic fans makes it all the more painful.

i wish jj was my dad Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 While I am still very very proud my overwhelming emotion is disappointment. We played really well. No failures and nothing left on the pitch but tnhey were really there for the taking. 2 very poor mistakes are really hard to take. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost didn’t want to celebrate as couldn’t handle the disappointment that they might come back. Sat in shock and amazement at what might happen.
