Popular Post Ya Bezzer! Posted Wednesday at 09:36 Popular Post Share Posted Wednesday at 09:36 1 hour ago, BukyOHare said: And that's it summed up for me. OF managers and players should be judged on how they perform against much better teams. German team beats Scottish team isn't that much of a surprise let's be honest. It's the manner of the defeat, that should rankle. Rodgers has to own that performance, he's now showing an inability to learn from it. From people that have worked with him he's a control freak and is blinkered to anything but his own opinion as to how things should be done. Hes surrounded by yes men and thats how he wants it. Most seasons a team from the lesser leagues gets into the knockout stages in Europe's competitions, teams from Denmark, Austria, Belgium etc Should it therefore be too much to ask that a team with 60,000 going through the doors every second week and a reported £77m in the bank might punch above their weight just once? You reap what you sow. The Scottish league is designed to be utter garbage so Rangers and Celtic can win it every year. However the league has become so unbalanced that it's actually destroying Rangers and Celtic along with everyone else. I mean Rangers have about as much chance of winning anything as Aberdeen or Hearts and Celtic aren't even 3rd rate in European terms and will be excluded from the top table soon enough. Our other teams regularly lose to teams from powerhouse nations like Andorra, Luxembourg, Wales, and Iceland. Domestic cup shocks used to be, well, shocks. Now lower league and even non league teams beat our top level sides every year, on multiple occassions. The national U21's haven't qualified for a Finals since 1996. The full Scotland side hasn't won in 14 matches, stunk out the Euros and is unlikely to qualify for a World Cup any time soon. Oh, and they just called up a 40+ year old goalkeeper from an abject bottom of the league team because there was literally is no one else.to fill the spot. Our national team is getting close to 'bring your boots' territory. Even at amateur level the sport is collapsing with clubs disappearing every year and regional league systems becoming unsustainable. When are we actually going to fix this? Ever? Or to we just keeping going along so Celtic win trebles most years and then get embarrassed in Europe? How can anyone be happy that we have a low quality, uncompetitive league and get absolutely horsed at any level above domestic right across the board? Now our national game is defined by every low esteem loser thicko across the country connecting themselves to two massively successful footballing institutions but surely even the kind of total moron that climbs up a lamp post with a bottle of Buckie in celebration of winning another cup will figure out that winning what are essentially rigged competitions and then getting hosed by big guns is essentially empty and meaningless. The SPL was formed around the late 1990s and it was by far the worst thing that ever happened in Scottish football. Our national game has gone right down the toilet ever since. Greed and selfishness has brought us here. It's like the entirety of Scottish football lives under some kind of lotus eater delusion. How low to we have to go before we fix our game? 36 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you are ok with a current poster weaponising child sex abuse and justifying that because some tits at some point in this history of this forum glorified terrorism? Mate c’mon, surely there isn’t justification for that and certainly not to score points with the current Celtic contingent on here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenlantern Posted Wednesday at 10:55 Share Posted Wednesday at 10:55 This thread is just as depressing as the Celtic performance last night. I'd like to share my opinion of where i think we were ruthlessly exposed and how to perhaps disguise our glaring inadequacies going forward, but think i'll duck out of this one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no pretence, him ignoring what was posted to just challenge the idea that no one celebrates terrorism on here was imo him saying he was ok with it hence why i asked him that exact question. I still don’t understand why historical posters who may have glorified terrorism makes it ok in the current day to use it as leverage to justify using child abuse as a method of point scoring. If he could explain that to me then I could maybe understand his point of view Edited Wednesday at 11:44 by Jinky67 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

well again Posted Wednesday at 11:53 Share Posted Wednesday at 11:53 2 hours ago, Insaintee said: Hilarious but all so predictable. What on earth possessed Brendan to think that Celtic could go toe to toe with last years CL finalists in their own patch? In a way we diddy teams should take the credit for this. We've lulled them into a false sense of security. They think that whipping St Johnstone makes them able to take on the best teams in the world on equal footing. They made no plans to deal with any of the German players think that they should worry about players like Maeda and Kuhn. Their team is totally unequipped to play in any other way that charging in. Until they learn to be pragmatic we can look forward to many more nights like this. Hail Hail - may they keep playing the Celtic Way forever. Usual Celtic arrogance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
