I'm not worried about Sevco catching us. I'm more concerned with how we are making life needlessly difficult for ourselves by dropping ridiculous points. |

Last season we were 27 points clear at this point. Today its 9. That's discussion worthy. |

That's not what he said. "Tommy's a fantastic manager, I am sure he walks away happy with a point but probably really frustrated. "How can you win a game 3-1 at Ibrox on 16 December, not win a game right the way through [since], apart from the Albion game, then your next big result is away at Celtic? "So I think the question goes with the St Johnstone players." |

Losing to Anderlecht cost us over 1.5M Euro, that is pretty tangible. |

I think that is more than fair. A lot of fellow fans with their heads in the sand. |

It's this bizarre act of shutting down any debate. Let folk talk it through and they'll likely come to a reasonable conclusion, there's no harm in it. You can be assured Celtic are internally reviewing and discussing every results, good or bad. Do folk think Brendan goes back to his players after yesterday's result and goes; "Unlucky boys but we're still in Europe, we were invincible last season but that was a one off and btw if you think you guys were rubbish today, you should've been here in the 90s". |

No one is entirely happy with how the domestic season has gone in terms of form. In terms of result, 9 points clear with one cup in the bag is not bad going. We have been ravaged by injuries and for whatever reason it looks like we are doing just enough to stay ahead. If we can make the last eight of the Europa and win the Scottish cup then it will have been a great season. |

Food for thought. Aberdeen away after Zenit away is a very tricky match. Say we were to lose that game, the gap would be 6 points. If we get through vs Zenit, the last 16 Europa league games would be either side of the match at Ibrox. Potential 3 point gap. I appreciate this is really pessimistic, but its not unrealistic. Big few weeks coming up. If we manage to keep progressing in Europe all these daft draws will become even more frustrating. |

Would you rather be 27 points clear and out of Europe with the chance at winning the treble or would you rather be 9 points clear, the chance to be in the last 16 of the EL and the chance at winning the treble? The team are still delivering when it counts. I'm sure if there was a tighter challenge in the league then BR would be fielding his strongest team more often and they'd be getting results. As it is, we're coasting the league and BR is trying to take us further in Europe and introduce fringe players. It's frustrating, but it'll pay off long term. |

Since the cup win the end of November we've dropped point to Motherwell, Hibs, Hearts, Orks, Kille and St johnstone. Last 2 league games we hardly created a chance. We look over coached, very predictable and scared to go direct and mix it up at times. I personally dont care about the EL but I do care about the league. No more room for error |

Rangers will drop points to us, Aberdeen (okay, a possible exaggeration there) Hibs, Hearts, Kilmarnock and probably one or two others before the season is out. They will never be within three points of us at any stage. Even yesterday when they supposedly hammered Hamilton they managed to concede three goals and it’s only a fortnight since Hibs beat them yet again on their own ground. They are pish. |

scored 3 goals in those games you mention. these aren't great defenses we are up against. we've gone from scoring in every game under Rodgers to failing to score in 4 out of the last 10. |

He needs to call out on the shampooe refereeing as it definitely hampers our game. |

Yep. European football after Christmas is a bonus. I'm not that fussed if we go further in the Europa League. Getting through the group stages for the CL would be different. |

We need all the coefficient points we can get to give us any kind of chance of qualifying for the UCL and we are going nowhere unless we do, so at the moment the Europa league is kind of critical. Edited by Ess, 19 Feb 2018, 12:11 PM.
