rmreido Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 To be fair, i was booing half way through the 2nd half, a corner we had ended up wi Craig Gordon, but we upped it after that, ee all know the rest, so hats off yo you Robbie, long may it continue 👏 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Maple Leaf Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Well done, Robbie. It's a superb result and a great way to start the league campaign. He gets stick when the result is bad, or the team's performance is bad, so he deserves praise when the opposite happens. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CostaJambo Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Just shows how people see things differently, I thought we were quite lucky in the end, and thought we were second best for most of the game and if their second goal had been given rather than offside we would probably have struggled to get back into it HOWEVER I won't take anything away from all that matters which is the result, which could well be 3 precious points more than a lot of teams get off them this season which can only be a good thing. Hoping this result gives us the confidence to attack every team we play at home and most away but not sure Robbie has as much faith in this squad to go for 3 points every week as I do.

It's perfectly logical to support the team and want the best while being critical of the performances or quality of individuals on the staff. I'm delighted with the result. Who isn't?

I thought they caused us absolutely zero concern. Plenty of the ball yet we still had by far the better chances. It wasn't perfect, and there's always going to be long periods in games v Celtic where we don't have the ball but they done absolutely nothing with it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The substitutions helped, but their main effect was to dampen Celtic's momentum and ease the pressure on our defence rather than putting us on the front foot - no bad thing, by the way.

No the changes putting Ginnelly up top then bringing Gnando on to add more threat while shoring up the midfield with Haring worked brilliantly and won us the game. People need to give Neilson some credit here. Put it this way, Ange didn't change things and lost. Neilson changed things and won. Edited July 31 by ToqueJambo Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Agree with that, Gordon didn't have many saves to make and we have been under a lot more pressure against them on numerous occasions. Really don't understand where the panic was coming from. Yes we were sitting back but the gameplan was clearly to sit back and try to hit them on the break with Ginnelly and GMS. Can't remember ever hearing boos when drawing at home to Celtic.
