Only team to beat them at Ibrox, and did it twice. McInnes was the only domestic manager to beat Rodgers' Celtic at Parkhead and we were the first Scottish team to take anything from there last season. I'm not one of those who thinks McInnes can never be criticised, but this isn't a fair one at the moment. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not one of those who thinks McInnes can never be criticised, but this isn't a fair one at the moment. There’s a lot of revision of history on these things. The Scottish cup win at ibrox was amazing. But without the early goal and sitting back the way we did it could in an alternate universe go very differently. If we lose I’m sure we’d be accused of shitting the bed. Our record against Celtic is poor tbf but our record last season against a side that pay multiples of what we do on wages and transfer fees was excellent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not trying to be an arse here, but I think McInnes got a lot of joy out of signing ICT players over the last few years. Is the fact that we've gotten shite meaning that he has to actually try and find decent players 'himself' as opposed to just going 'right who's the best ICT players?' maybe factoring into this conclusion? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you set up like we did at Ibrox last season and don't win, you are going to get hammered for being so 'negative', like the post-split game (and perhaps deservedly so). But if you execute it well, get a bit of good fortune along the way and win, nobody is really caring a jot about how we did it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadco are far better as a counter attacking team. The game we took it to them (the defeat at home) they were a threat every single time we lost the ball on the attack. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmcg94 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 It’s our record against Celtic that bugs me, beating rangers is all well and good but you want to do it against celtic more. We always bottle it against Celtic ( when it matters) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodhull Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Does nobody just lose a game anymore? Seems like you can only win or bottle it (and draw I guess). When were we going into games against Celtic expected to win? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you’re speaking about the 4-2 defeat at Pittodrie last season , you must have been watching a different game to me. First half was fairly even but the extremely fortunate penalty they got put a flattering complexion on the halftime score for them. We battered them for pretty much the whole of the second half and it wasn’t until the last ten minutes or so that they threatened , and only in injury time that they scored 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodhull Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 According to a boy at STV we had a bid accepted for Ojo but he turned us down to go to Hibs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm suggesting that every time we lost the ball they were a threat. When we sit back they very quickly run out of ideas. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RussellAnderson Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Aye cus we’re the only team who lose to Celtic all the time.We’ll win a cup one of these days. Then everyone will f**k off and we can enjoy watching the Dons in peace. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmcg94 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 This whole love in for del for finishing second is ridiculous, he can’t lay a glove on Celtic. He never gets his tactics right, dit’s back and invites pressure onto us. He is living off a league cup and a few second place finishes. Del has been great for us but giving him a new deal is the wrong call by Milne and co. There is also support for del from the cheerleaders because he turned down sevco. We will be lucky to finish 4th this year. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
