Forrest is streaky too, when he's fit. What do you mean by Forrest "has managed to see off dozens of players in his time at the club"? Mizuno, McGinn, Ljunberg and Slane are the only right wingers I can think of that Forrest has seen off in his time here. He's not really had much competition for his position since breaking into the first team - hence he has always played when fit. When he has been injured, we have mostly played square pegs in round holes (e.g. playing Commons on the right). We haven't really brought anyone decent in to challenge Forrest, until now. |

So he'll be disciplined for disobeying his manager then, eh? I don't want Forrest in the team, but I highly doubt he was doing anything other than taking Guidetti's only chance of scoring off of him. I get out of school at half three. |

I don't know if it was Guidetti or Stokes who was suppossed to take the penalty, but the players and the Coaching staff do. As for being disciplined, he does deserve to get his arse booted |

This penalty stuff is so amateurish it has happened under MON, GS, NL and now RD too. It's a squad game nowadays so it's not good enough to just have 1 or 2 penalty takers. If a penalty is awarded then everyone on the park should know who takes it. Of course RD may have covered this beforehand and if so and Forrest wasn't the penalty taker then he needs his arse booted. Had it been 0-0 i'm convinced Guidetti would still have wanted to take it. Not so convinced Forrest would have. I had 3-0 to Celtic yesterday so that may be making me slightly more annoyed though

I had 3-0 too. I think we all knew we had won and it didn't matter whether he scored it or not but I wanted to see that penalty hit the back of the net. As others have said had the kick been crucial I reckon he'd have been at the back of the queue, and certainly should be from now on. No harm done anyway and I still think he's a good player when he's on his game.

I'm fairly sure Guidetti could have taken the ball from Forrest if he wanted to but that would have looked even more stupid than it already did. Likewise if Broony had got involved. Wonder what everyone thought when that big fud Balotelli took the penalty when Henderson was on them for Liverpool the other week. |

I'm no fan of Forrest, but he's shown he wants to take penalties in the past. |

Nail on the head. Amazes me people saying Guidetti was a huffy bastard over it. He was 100% correct to be. |

For all the moaners on here absolutely gagging to have a go about Forrest & the penalty. Deila already cleared it up. Our designated takers were Commons & Griffiths. Neither was on the pitch. Instead of blaming the guy with the ball how about the guy kicking up a stink so he could get a shot? Said this yesterday. You could lip read Forrest saying "why?" when Guidetti was trying to get the ball off him. Guidetti wanted to score for himself and had a bigger role to play in the embarrassing scenes than Forrest. But still. It was Forrest's fault. Why? eff knows wee man. eff knows. |

I think Guidetti wanted to take it from Forrest, as did he not set Forrest up for his goal, and wanted payback for it? I'm sure I saw him mouthing "quid pro quo, Jamesie" , when trying to get the ball from him. |

Another guy willing to bicker over a penalty because he's desperate for a goal! |

My point about Forrest seeing dozens of players off wasn't specifically about right wingers. I meant that dozens of players have been sold by Celtic over the past five years because they've not been good enough to play for us. Forrest, by comparison, has commanded a regular place throughout that time when he's been fit. He's never been transfer listed, he's never been sent out on loan. Celtic and Scotland managers have continually selected him over that period. |
