FT 0-0

 

Not quite sure what to make of that. Would certainly have taken a point before the game so in that sense, good. Then they were down to 10 men for 50 minutes...

 

Second half was quite a strange spectacle. We played deeper and deeper and spent most of it with 11 men behind the ball. Cause Celtic only had 9 attacking players they didn’t create much. Strange stalemate.

 

On one hand it was certainly much improved from the last few games and it’s a good point, on the other we won’t get many better chances to beat Celtic.

Don't think we've shat it, more like we have ran out of steam

Don't have many game changers on the bench either.

Can see Celtic getting a late winner.

Shat it was probably harsh but I don't think it's because you ran out of steam, unless you ran out of steam at half time.  Disappointing that you didn't go for it, said it time and time again this season that as soon as you get at them like you did in the first half they hate it.

Great result though.

We really didn’t have the players to go for it. Stubbs had left us with a totally ill equipped squad.

Great performance and result considering the circumstances.

Shat it is unfair. If Celtic were handicapped to play the whole season with 10 players they would still end up in the top 3 or 4

I can understand people saying that we could've taken advantage against 10 men but Celtic still had loads of the ball. Mullen and Smith, as well as the midfield ran themselves into the ground. They were shattered.

Considering how bad we've been, how poorly organised and fragile we've been, to keep a clean sheet against Celtic (even with them having 10 men for an hour) is a huge improvement.

Ferdinand was excellent an absolute cucumber at the back, something we've been really lacking. Baird looked much more assured, McGinn and Hodson both had very good games as well. Every player got pass marks. 2 weeks ago we were scratching our heads to find one player with pass marks.

Good result for St Mirren despite having an extra man, gives you a base to start building on. Every points a prisoner at the bottom.

Celtic look an absolute shadow of the "Invincibles" team. Watching Brown trying to thread balls through a congested midfield was hilarious, I'd genuinely be interested to see him pass completion stats on passes over five yards, it'll be tiny.
