SectionDJambo Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 It's not a great draw for us, certainly not at this stage. We should have managed the 2 goals today but didn't. However, to me, awarding teams a 3-0 victory for a covid cancellation doesn't make sense when there is a seeding system in place for the first knock out round. A 1-0 award would be fairer to the other clubs in the respective groups and certainly overall. The points awarded but no unfair advantage over other teams involved in the competition. Especially this year with 5 European qualifiers instead of the usual 4. Why does it have to be 3? Just because that has been the punishment to teams who have broken rules in the past?

And we rise to the challenge ! Too many greetin' faced wimps on here shitin' themselves already, we've not even kicked a ball against them yet and these bairns are all "aw naw, we'll get pumped, ah want ma mammy. it's no' fair, waaaaaaaaaaaaa!" . I'll remain positive thanks very much, and on the day, if we do lose, well, that's football, and I'll always back my club. HHGH ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Rob Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 There is something incredibly frustrating about winning every pool match, narrowly missing out on seeding, thinking ‘probably won’t make much difference’ and then being handed Celtic away.

martoon Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 (edited) Tbf, 4 wins, 8 goals scored and 0 conceded should be enough to be seeded. Add in the 3-0 award wins (far too much, imo) and we have been unlucky. Still not convinced by Neilson, however. We're treading water while he's the head coach. Just as we did with Craig "I've been speaking to Robbie this week" Levein. I'm 53 and the last 4/5 years have been squandered. How many more?

Jamiemac Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 https://t.co/Wxa44TGA7R Match Report from the game Desperately disappointing not to get ourselves seeded and the result of the draw puts a massive dampener on the evening. We created plenty chances, but I thought there were a fair few areas of concern too. Credit to Inverness, they’ll have another good season. Ridgers always seems to have a good game against us. Souttar back into training midweek and hopefully okay for Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who said we should signing crap? It was acknowledged at the end of last season we had to seriously strengthen the team for the Premier League - we play Celtic next week and we still haven’t done so! Not shitting my pants - just being realistic but you bash on with yer heed firmly stuck in the sand! Try to read before you burst a bloodvessel with your seethe. My point was qualified that you very rarely win any cups without facing or beating one or both of Sevco or Celtic. Your pathetic attempt to stir up crap just shows you are a complete panic merchant.

John Findlay Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 (edited) Season 2007/08 league Cup QF venue Celtic Park. Result Celtic 0 Hearts 2. Season 2009/10 League Cup QF venue Celtic Park Result Celtic 0 Hearts 1. In Season 2007/8 we had played Celtic only once in the league before the league Cup game and been hammered 5-0 at Celtic Park. In Season 2009/10 we had again only played Celtic once in the league before the league Cup game and been beaten 2-1 at Celtic Park. I am sure many never gave us a chance back then either. We have done it before and we can do it again. Edited July 25, 2021 by John Findlay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kila Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 (edited) Looked slow and disjointed at times. This ****ing around with formations is just making the players slower. I was expecting 3-5-2 and Popescu to be filling in for Souttar. OK he's pish but at least we'd still be playing the same formation so the rest of the team is familiar with each other and movements. We were there for talking at times, a better team would've scored a few. Edited July 25, 2021 by kila Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mars plastic Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 This year’s target is to consolidate our position in the league, which I’m assuming is ninth or above, so the cups, just like last season, are expendable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
