If he played next goals the winner the game might still be going on. |

For the wish not to start sounding like a smart erse...what is the solution then? 9 changes ( i think on Sunday) and it was the worst at home Ive seen us this season. I can kind of get 2/3 maybe 4 changes but 9 totally backfired and not for the first time this season. General opinion is that we have regressed this year and are none to pretty to watch - which I agree with. IMO him constantly changing the team is effecting confidence in the players and resulting is poor performances in the league. |

If we take results out of what is (by popular aphorism) a results business it does leave us chewing the carpet a bit. I agree that Celtic should always strive to be the Cavalier and not the Roundheads (that at least was drilled into my DNA) and I do agree we have a squad with too many samey type players. Not being able to beat Kilmarnock’ with a full strength team doesn’t bother me particularly. It’s happened in every single season I’ve supported Celtic bar last year. Steve Clarke is a good manager. He gave Rodgers his dinner. So what? It happens. If he does it six times in a row you’d begin to wonder. But fir a man that’s top of the league by 9 points, still in Europe and coming off an unbeaten treble season I don’t think it sounds endemic. Half the buglers on here want a settled team. Time and again the stats are posted about the volume and intensity of football we’ve played over 18 months and it doesn’t make any odds. The fact we don’t win every game now invites the manager is not above criticism. One doesn’t follow the other except on here. |

We were not allowed to build any kind of momentum. If the ref does his job properly, Richard Foster is sent off and we are playing against 10 men for 30 mins. |

Yet, Ajer missed a great chance in the first half and Anderson blocks a goal bound shot with his arm. Not making excuses for the performance. It was poor. However, I think we win if the ref does his job properly. |

Easy to blame the ref for another insipid dour performance. We aren't creating enough, we aren't scoring enough it has to improve. |

Easy to blame because its true. As I said in the match thread, we weren't at the races as a team (7 changes will do that) but we easily had enough individual talent to win the game. Beaton made sure that every time anyone showed a flash of it, Saints were able to foul with impunity then get men behind the ball (which because we played poorly as a team, we couldn't break down.) It was a masterclass in cheating, without him we would (at least have had several more chances) to snatch something. He made 100% sure our individual class couldn't count for anything on the day. |

We did perform poorly but if they had been rightly reduced to ten men then surely we would have created more opportunities? Also what about the pen claim? |

We need to negate any impact the ref has on a game by actually turning up for the game, do that and we'll win 99% of them. |

I disagree. The ref has to do his job. |

Cal Mac had a shot after a corner that was goal bound. Anderson stuck out his arm. Sportscene highlighted it in their coverage. Edited by allthewine, 20 Feb 2018, 04:18 PM.

If they had been reduced to ten men they would have been energised by a sense of injustice, hit us on the break and beat us 2-0. |

Don’t say that. 99% will be the new expectation. |

You don’t think if we turn up and play as we’re capable of we not win 99% of the time ? Play as we did v St J and you invite the ref to have an influence over the game. Slowing it down, breaking up play etc etc it’s always been the case that the refs up here will and won’t do certain things in a game. If we scored on Saturday we’d have won despite the ref. |
