Celtic Non Matchday Discussion Season 2014/15

Why are you banned, pal?

I will search for a link but I donā€™t think I could be too bothered watching the game.

[QUOTE=ā€œColin Montgomerie, post: 1027140, member: 9ā€]@Il Bomber Destro, do you have a link for todayā€™s game please? Iā€™m temporarily banned from the huddleboard and I usually source my links from there. Thereā€™s nothing on first row sports.

Protesting against their Scottish saltire banners and front page on the day of the Scottish independence vote. A completely unjust banning.

They are a very sensitive bunch.

Watching it here on poor quality. 1 down.

Guidetti off - not popular. Stokes has been really poor today. Griffiths on for Guidetti.

Odd one there, Tonev brought down, player booked but corner given. Presume the booking was for an earlier challenge but should have been a pen.

Stokes heads badly wide from 7 yards.

A simple kick out and theyā€™re in behind. Unbelievable. Ambrose nowhere near his position and Denayer lets it float over him. VVD recovers to deflect it inches past the post.

Another long ball and VVD bullied off it this time but we recovered to crowd out whatever non-entity bullied VVD.

Another close call. Gordonā€™s hurried clearance broke to Hamilton in midfield. A simple pass put Andreu through on goal but he took a poor first touch and ended up trying a curler that just beat the post.

This was their goal by the way. Ambrose knocked over by the wind as the cross comes in:

Griffiths volleys wide from 6 yards.

This is the Griffiths chance:

We should have scored at least once today. But we keep gifting them chances too.

This is dreadful again.

Our defending is atrocious. We have created a couple of chances, as one might expect at home to Hamilton, but we surrender possession to them so easily. They had a lad trapped in the corner there and he just rolled it up the line to their striker who was the obvious only out ball but he was in 15 yards of space because nobody thought it worthwhile to stand near him. The only possible ball their full back could have played and we gifted it to them.

Our supposed pressing game is non-existent. But we have all the downsides of it when they do attack because we all seem to be ahead of the ball then, despite having put no pressure on their midfield or defence. Itā€™s abysmal.

How in the name of fuck did Stokes miss that?

Stokes misses from 4 yards with a free header in the middle of the goal. Puts it wide.

That last Stokes chance:

Why did we take Guidetti off? So we could put Virgil up front at the end? Ridiculous shit.

We havenā€™t improved our defending a single bit since the first game. There isnā€™t much the manager can do about the chances missed (except leaving on our best striker might have been useful). But the fact we concede in nearly every game is down to the complete absence of a defensive system. Itā€™s brutal.

All over. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
