He's a coach. No idea how good he is. Everyone talks about our set plays being crap. If he's in charge of this, then God help us.Can somebody tell me what john kennedy is getting paid for
I don't believe for one second that BR would go into any game with an intent to lose, but he does have an ego when it comes to his 'plan'.I've heard this said by a few people. If any truth in the idea that BR is losing games to put pressure on people to spend then he should be sacked.
I can't believe anyone with the club's best interest would do that.
This all day. . Woke up feeling no better than when I went to my scratcher. Losing hurts, losing without putting up a fight is not acceptable. Down to the manager for me, his starting line up a joke and the subs baffling.I don't believe for one second that BR would go into any game with an intent to lose, but he does have an ego when it comes to his 'plan'.
He gets paid big bucks to make big decisions and he got it wrong yesterday. The players have to hold their hands up too, they let themselves and the supporters down badly. To such an extent, that I'm not sure I can trust some of them in big games
It's not the defeat, I can live with that and as someone said on this or another thread, we have no divine right to win. It was the manner of the defeat I have difficulty coming to terms with. I was pretty pissed, but I can't remember seeing one of them lying in a heap after a clatter.
We were posted absent yesterday, and that is inexcusable.
well said D.Gordon -great saves but distribution is shocking. GO
Lustig - great servant, slow, too many injuries. GO
Boyata - GO.
Brown - same as Lustig. GO.
Sinclair - hattrick one week, disappearing trick the next. GO
McGregor - MUST BE PLAYED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PARK. WE WERE ALREADY SHORT OF A MIDFIELDER IN ROGIC. HUNS MUST HAVE BEEN DELIGHTED TO SEE 2 OF OUR BEST MIDFIELDERS MISSING OR PLAYING OUT OF POSITION.
Transfer window - We don't need a replacement for Brown, he's already at the club. BUT need at least one centre back. Don't like the players being mentioned. Why bring in an 18 year old striker for 6 months when you have an 18 year old on your books and not been given a chance- Jack Aitchison.
Manager- Brendan stop playing players out of position. EVERYTIME YOU DO IT WE DROP POINTS.
Thats the spirit am buzzin noo after that!Ok we've all slept. The result is the same. Its history, no one died (thank god). We lost a game of football. Are you safe, are you're loved ones safe? Yes! Good. Remember the 90's? Yeah they were tough days, far worse than yesterday. Under TB we used to batter them and still lose. As someone said the last time we lost to them it only brought good things i.e. BR.
We're all still Celts and that can only be good. Hail Hail.
Thanks for your excellent post - I’m prone to taking this far too seriously so good to read your post HHOk we've all slept. The result is the same. Its history, no one died (thank god).

I know it's painful Neil, but try looking at it another way mate, if football games were decided by who had the biggest budget, then most fans would never go back and teams would die leaving only a world super league of the richest clubs on the planet, look at some of our best and most memorable matches in recent history in europe, our record against english sides all who have vast amounts of dosh in comparison stands up well, beating barca a couple of times was magical, if it only boiled down to who has the most dough then we would have been pumped by the lot of them, one thing I will say is our squad versus the staggering 59 million wage bill is under performing mate, I think when your spending that money we should have had better players, think our scouting is very hit or miss.Is no-one taking this seriously? We lost to a six years old team, with an under 18s coach, that is on its arse and has no-mark players . We are 124 years older, have the most expensive manager in Scottish football (ever?) and we have the biggest budget with a load of international, well-paid players . I don't expect them to lose (ever) and I don't bellieve there should be an inability to adapt our tactics to overcome the opposition - play round them, above them, through them or whatever it takes.
Cant disagree about our recent away record in europe mate, it's been scandalous, but I've always put that down to Brendans tactics, and why does the grim reaper always pull our name out the draw coz we always get the feckin group of death.I just don't want us to run the risk of screwing up 8iar because we are top of the league just now (with a far smaller advantage than we ought to have) when we have given sevco a real boost and they will get the same chance to refresh and get more players (it is clear that being skint and FTP makes no difference to them) and BR has not learned from his mistakes ( e.g. the Hibs defeat) or come across any new tricks so could easily cost us more points with the refs only too happy to chip in with some honest mistakes if it is tight in the run in. The only surefire way is to crush them.
Also, taking the 11 men against 11 other men argument - which I don't disagree with - we should be able to punch above our weight in Europe but we don't do it, especially away.
