Well today was a day in waiting. Has been coming. We can't keep winning every game. Weather our fans want to admit it or not, the gap has narrowed and quite considerably.

A few things from today's game. The point has been made already, but our pressing, our hunting in packs to get the ball back has disappeared. Are our players training hard enough, being pushed hard enough? Or just plain tired? The later I'm not buying. Or simply Lennon's style of play. What ever the reason we have to get better at hounding them. Look at how they pressed us, 4 going after the ball at a time. 2/ 3 on Frimpong, 4 on Édouard. Their energy levels were there for all to see.

In the last 15 mins we were relying on a 18 year old right back to give us a creative spark. That's simply not good enough.

I don't know the answer. But Lennon has to look at the last 2 games against them and come up with another plan, a curve ball.

This league has a long way to go and it could all come down to the 2 old firm games. I can't see a lot of points being dropped.

Lennon has a lot to think about.

I don't remember the last time we pressed a team deep in their own half like you mention and I really don't think we have the players that can do it? There are far too few tacklers or ball-winners and far too many lightweights who are easily dispossessed or just give the ball away under the slightest pressure.
If teams let us play and surrender space, we can look fantastic, but Sevco have shown our weaknesses/ failings two games in a row.
The first was a 'Get Out Of Jail Free Card' because we won a trophy and it was seen as a bad day, but today proved that they have got more muscle, organization and desire than us and that's unacceptable - on your own pitch in front of your own support.
The break comes at a good time for us to regroup and possibly add some much needed quality and variety, but it also gives them a huge boost and a slight advantage - and they too will strengthen.
The manager needs to open his eyes and see where we need to improve and even replace as there were one or two out there that may never be trusted to deliver in similar circumstances and the stakes are far too high to bluff.

Celtic the Football club should be so far out of sight of our new neighbours that the Hubble telescope would be unable to find them.
Celtic the business however have slowly but surely allowed the gap to narrow, this has been premeditated and deliberate.
Celtic the business understands that no one bets on a one horse race!
As someone that has followed our great club man and boy I can accept defeat, better Celtic teams than this have lost but this feels different, when the original Rangers had their foot on our throat they pressed much harder than we seem willing to do.

Green tree this is not Lennons fault in my eyes he gave the tactics that yous wanted with Ntcham out and Christie in the ten ten and Forrest on right. This lies with the players. We didn’t deserve nothing as we didn’t the last game either. We need to buckle up or we won’t get 9 never mind the 10. Seen this coming a mile away but it how’s you react to these situations that makes you champions. Have a safe night lads.
