Motherwell have been shambolic at the back, so I am sitting here thinking were we really that poor against them earlier this season? Wouldn't be surprised if the victims go nap in this game. Motherwell did what they always do against us. Start aggressive and fast and put our defenders under pressure. Invariably we seem unprepared to deal with it. And before we know it we're behind.

shut up meg Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Yep, I bet that the stonewall penalty that Motherwell were denied a few minutes before Celtic's 2nd goal will hardly be discussed. 6 minutes ago, aberdeen1970 said: It doesn't matter who they are playing. All that matters is how many Celtic v Huns games they need to win now to take the title. All other games for Huns and Celtic are formalities. ©Scottish football media Link to comment

Their game plan that Sunday afternoon worked a treat. Surely they could have adopted the same approach today which proved very successful against ourselves? Link to comment
aberdeen1970 Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 We're more likely to get a 30 minute discussion on their respective goal differences and how important that might be on helicopter Sunday Link to comment

Fuck knows min, it's probably a mentality issue like we seem to have against them. Link to comment

Fuck knows min, it's probably a mentality issue like we seem to have against them. Lots of teams, including ourselves, seem to have a variance in levels of belief when playing the two sides of the scum. We exhibited that in droves over the last couple of weekends as when we showed belief, we inevitably caused and did damage. However in the 20 minute spell in the first half of the semi final last week, the levels of belief dipped after the 5th minute to such a point it was painful to watch when celtic scored their two goals. The second half performance was better mind and Aberdeen were the better team although the end product, which was evident the previous week, was sadly lacking. Link to comment

We seem to do it to Hibs. Remember in the very late 70s and early 80s it was Morton who would cause us no end of trouble yet we were beating the arse cheeks for fun. Link to comment

Same Motherwell that have won 3 of the last 10 against us in league games? I get your point but a strange example IMO. Link to comment

Used to stroll through games and then pull something out of his arse. Jim Bett reminded me of him a bit but Bett maybe looked more interested. I would have liked to have seen him in a red jersey.

alscotoz Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Different players but I would pick Strachan every day. I loved Jim Bett as a player, mind. Definitely Top 5. Would Weir be classed as a midfielder? Link to comment

Celtic have been the architects of their own downfall. Lego muncher giving away a ridiculous penalty that their keeper saves but their defence...Ajer in particular...are still sleeping and Hibs score the rebound. Second goal just horrific defending all round Link to comment
