The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

Can hardly blame the ref. Bitton cost us the game

Wise up would you.
Feck all to do with the ref.

With the exception of Morellos yellow missed in the first 10 minutes he was fair enough. Celtic beat themselves. They played better but there is a lack of belief and confidence which unfortunately has to be laid at NL's door. League is over.

Outside the sending off, does Lennon do any work on defending set pieces at training. It's an absolute joke. One set play and they score.

What the f:*k does Lennon do on the training ground? The amount of goals conceded from set plays is unreal.

Rangers have been the best team all year, with a better manager. They sat in today and played for the draw - it suited them to soak up the pressure. Celtic had to win.

In fairness, it was between Bitton and Duffy at centre back and Bitton was the 'better' option. But he's a mid-fielder so not great by Lennon/Lawell in the transfer market this past few years.

Get Lennon out and start building again.

Can't see Aberdeen closing the gap on Rangers now

Bitton rugby tackled the Rangers lad to stop him getting in on goal. No other Celtic defender was going to close him done. Stone wall red card. Blaming the ref for that result is delusional and clutching at straws.

Ref had nothing to do with it. Celtic had all the ball or 70 mins and reality is they didn't have the quality or creativity to make any significant chances bar one to Edouard. I've said it for yonks they badly badly need a ctr midfielder and a striker too. The el Elyounoussi was utter muck for 15 mins when you need an impact from the bench. Celtic don't have the players.

Just weren't good enough. Cant blame referee on that result. Celtic have lost a number of key players in recent years and haven't been replaced with same quality.

Ajer was covering in the middle. It was a very marginal call at best. Dont know why he bothered tackling him though - he'd never score anyway

From the Bunker · January 02, 2021, 02:32:41 PM

Ok, 10 in a row - League title is over!

Time to use this precious time to clear the decks.

Give a new Manager the time (honeymoon period) to bed in new system and players.

Gerrard has done a decent job, made all the easier by Celtic.

reillycavan · January 02, 2021, 02:33:02 PM

I wonder will Steve move on after this. His stock will be high. Surely a premier league team will be after him?

Angelo · January 02, 2021, 02:33:45 PM

Lennon cost us the league but hey geographical loyalty will probably stop you saying that.

reillycavan · January 02, 2021, 02:34:16 PM

Have to say Ajer was immense in first half in particular.

JimStynes · January 02, 2021, 02:34:50 PM

Who is going to want the job? It'll have to be some up and coming inexperienced manager like Stevie G was. Who's going to want to sign for them. A complete disaster of a season. I'm not even convinced Celtic would have held on last season as well.
