St Johnstone v Celtic - Match Thread - all comments here

We need to get out this coma and start trolleying teams convincingly again. Cant see it being now though sadly although i wuld agree with Brim change of onfield personnel i reckon they would give us more desire.

I reckon 2 0


Well i will take this kinda wrong any day of the week.

This is how we do it, Nah nana na nah nana na nah nana na nah, this is how we do it.

5 Alive going for Heavens Seven and strolling towards the Popes eleven

This is how we do it.
 
Great game , mentally even though Sevco won albeit 3-1, they know in their heart of hearts that only by beating us will they have any chance, and only rising to 6th was not in the script for beating the league leaders, listening to Brendan pre start interview he was saying his squad was too big and needs culling , he was not just referring to the periphery players only to happy and hide and take the money but the first 11 also, and by the looks of todays play , they picked up on it, a great team performance and time again to feel confidence in the team
 
This was a game where we traditionally struggle so was great to see that performance, hopefully a catalyst to actually start playing some attacking football and getting back to doing it the Celtic Way

Don’t want to sound negative after a 6-0 away win but if Brendan feels the squad is too big then cut loose some of the pish he sanctioned to sign

That’s like me moaning about getting into trouble from the misses for leaving everything at my arse.

Although I do that. So maybe he misses the point too.

Football died today when the game was allowed to continue, even after it was noticed the grass was too green.

As Celtic scored really basic, jammy goals, the grass got even greener and still McLean failed to abandon the match and award St Johnstone the points, as brother Tommy has done a terrific job, year on year and is looking like a man bereft of justice.

Even though the Saints went down to ten men, for a tackle I have used on old ladies in queues at the post office many times and never been arrested yet. Ridiculous decision and clear proof, if it were needed, of the dark hand of the fenian mafia currently infesting the SFA and SPFL.

It ended 6.0 but the real story of the day was the mighty Glasgow Rangers putting their wee cousins to the sword, and shield and heart in hand. Brilliant stuff. The glorious Blues remain two points behind the cracked crest mob, purely down to bad luck and teams not laying down. A scandal.

Don’t despair though readers, as even though Celtic are supposedly getting back in form, the mighty 55 Gerrard Express is still on track.

Final score then

St Johnstone 0 Celtic 6

In a game that should never have been.

PS. I’m hearing there was a big fight inside the Celtic dressing room after the game, Proving, as if proof were needed, that it’s a torn and divided dressing room and Rogers threw a cup at Lawells face, and called him a prick.

Cheers mate, I had a massive LOL there, lager up the nose, out the nose, out the mouth the fucking lot all over the jeans... my shed is turned into a wee bar with internet and tv etc so now I’ve gotta go into the house for Sunday dinner via the kitchen and explain to her who must be obeyed why my jeans are soaking fuckin wet... she already thinks I’m in the shed for a porn fest ???☘️??
 
Top drawer from Wee Jamsie Forrest today. Seems the sending off midweek really riled him up and St Johnstone ended up paying the price. He was hungry for the ball, he was direct with it and his link up play with Rogic was superb. He inspired those around him to move and pass quicker and we seen everything that has been good about BR's Celtic in that first half display today.

This game summed up the strengths and weaknesses of the team perfectly. When team's open up and have a go against us we can exploit the space and carve them open with our pace and quick passing but the sending off changed the whole complexion of the game, it forced St Johnstone to sit deep and when teams do this we don't alter our style to suit, we continue trying to play through them.

It was a great result today but this game was the perfect example of why we need to come up with an effective countermeasure to teams parking the bus.

Excellent analysis, when we as mere supporters can see the bloody obvious then it beats me why it’s so hard for the management to suss it out (and going a bit deeper... why the so called scouting team can’t see what the team needs)
 
I'm really hesitant to moan but I cant help myself. Only a wee wan though?. What Andybhoy said hit the nail on the head, once St J went deep we struggled to break them down. However McGregors goal was a combination full of positive passing and movement. In other games when we face the bus we'll need to replicate that. On the whole? Chuffed. Forest immense and McGregor excellent in Broonies berth.
