Any team that plays 4-4-2 against Celtic will get punished if they don't retain possession and create chances. Not the smartest move from Yogi.

Feckin superb psychological ploy

Aye 4-4-2 was a tactical mistake.  We shouldn't have gone to 'give it a good go' as Yogi said, we should have gone to keep it as tight as possible, knowing Celtic would come out blazing.  Should have played Billy up front and dropped Richie back into the centre of the field and kept it tight to half-time at least.  So important not to have shipped a shedload of goals before two cup games.  Also missed Marley's defensive work.

Surprising, as Yogi has been tactically astute for the past couple of games - although he couldn't have bargained for two soft goals in the first 20 minutes.  Ah well, forget about it and move on!

Feckin superb psychological ploy

Certainly psyched me out =:O

Cellic wouldn't sell me an away ticket so had to keep stum and sit in the home end with half of Ireland.

Will take 5_0 as it could/should have been 8 or 9

At one stage Celtic broke away and stokes and Griffith's must have played 4 or 5 one twos in our box before Griffith's shot over.

Brill had a couple of good saves before letting a 30 harder from commons right foot under his body.

Ritchie had a chance at 2_0 after good work from shinnie but blasted over from 10 yards and in second half was not quick enough with his feet to score from 3yards and let the defender get a tackle in.

We played a couple of bits of nice stuff but no end product. Billy and for an tried their best but the Celtic back four were too fast, too strong, too good.especially ambrose and dick van dyke.

Thought hughes got his tactics very wrong today more like boo boo than yogi.

Draper gave the bal away with poor passing and was rightly hooked. Meekings needs to work on his distribution which was poor also, but lucky he has pace.

Shinnie was very good going forward but got a roasting from Forrest later on in the game.

Ross is a nice footballer but can't go past anyone is swatted away too easily.

Warren was solid Vincent too slow and tansey was playing high balls to billy against van dyke doh

Hope Hughes does not come out with the injured beast, bad day at the office because it wasn't.

Celtic too good I am afraid. And to think Aberdeen beat them. Ah well roll on 16 march

On train home. Believe me no-one could have lived with Celtic today! Onwards to next week.

           Did someone say bad day at the office?................. More like bad day for the whole city with the way other results went.

Ah well we wiill take heart from IHE's comment and as Tm4tj tells us............... it was just a rehearsal for the big one,we'll take it that bad rehearsal good performance is in the offing.

 

come on ICT  

Today was always a hiding to nothing - lose an early goal at Cellic Park and it is usually a case of damage limitation thereafter. Some good goals scored. What really did Yogi have to lose today hy going fer it. Lets face it - the next two games are as big as we have ever experienced - Bring it on.
