  1. So, for those of us who've not been paying attention, who're the ones leaving the emojis?
  2. I agree the dates need to be flexible and adapted to the changing situation. However people also need a bit of hope. Something to look forward to. They can't just keep saying restrictions are continuing for the next 3 weeks. People will just give up. A flexible framework with indicative dates is sensible imo. It doesn't have to be as explicit as the UK government has laid out but key stages and dates such as "the end of May" or whatever should be given.
  3. Celtic Park. Yeah. Think we overtake Derek McInnes' St Johnstone πŸ˜‚
  4. Barca a far cry from the team Tony Watt clinched victory for Celtic against all those years ago.
  5. You. There's been an entire day of respectful posting and grown up discussion. You've just jumped in and started dragging the thread down. Discussions evolve. Other things get discussed. It's what happens when grown ups talk. Perhaps you'd have more luck in getting the thread back on topic if YOU discussed celtic, rather than just whinging that others aren't. Say something that people want to engage with and the discussions will move back to your team.
  6. why do you seek confrontation for no reason? A strange trait.
  7. Agree totally. Love watching him play. It's become fashionable to slag him off when the reality is in regards to cheating, he does little different from the majority of other players. You're entitled to your opinion. it's not one I share at all but it'd be boring if we all thought the same thing
  8. He's not even won a cup and you're comparing him to Fergie...
  9. McInnes doesn't think he needs to listen to anyone. That's clear. If he did, we'd not have suffered a turgid style of play for 3 years now. I can't see any way back for him tbh. Only his fat contract and the cost of paying him off is keeping him in a job. He's doing a great job now, I agree. He done a great job in Europe last season too. Without that European run last season, he may not even have seen this season though. The performances of his side in domestic cups has been pretty pathetic though. I'm sure he and his backroom team have learned a lot from whatever huge failures caused them to collapse last season. That's to their credit. As you say, we'll never know how they'd have coped under serious pressure but I don't think that's something that we can hold against them. What's your early impressions of how Graham Alexander will do?
  10. Yeah. From what I've read Michael Beale and Tom Culshaw play a huge part in Rangers' success. Gerrard very much the public face of a management team. Knowing when someone is smarter than you and having the humility to know when you should listen to them is something Gerrard is clearly adept at.
  11. I think McInnes will struggle to get a job in England at the level he thinks he should. His recent track record is Finishing 4th in Scotland with the 3rd biggest budget and failing to win any trophies. Doubt that will appeal to many clubs. Especially when you add in the "pragmatic" brand of football he chooses to play. I'm not sure who I'd like. A young coach with an experienced guy as DoF would be how I think a club should be structured. DoF taking a long term view and ensuring recruitment fits with how we want the team to play and that we're focussing sufficiently on player development. A tactically astute coach improving players and managing the side.
  12. I'd have done it 2.5 years ago. We've been regressing since the 2017 Cup Final.
  13. You, just like Ramy, are only looking at one side. Rangers have improved & been very consistent. However celtic have regressed massively. Celtic were on course for 101 points last season, this season theyre on track for 83. A huge drop off. Rangers are on track for 103 this season. A huge increase but Celtic fans have every right to be frustrated at their own sides steep regression.
  14. Logged on for the first time in a while and see that the exact same bonkers arguments are still ongoing πŸ˜‚. Although the emoji one does seem to be new. Why does anyone give a toss enough about that to get worked up about it? Messaging mods because people are giving them confused faces... πŸ˜‚ Great stuff. Anyway, I'd expect a very comfortable win for Celtic tomorrow. A slow limp to the end of the season is in store for Aberdeen. With 4 of our 10 remaining games vs Celtic and/or Rangers, I can't see us even getting close to catching Hibs. A season in which 2nd was there very much for the taking, we'll likely finish 4th (& possibly 5th). McInnes hanging on for a payoff of his inflated contract, while claiming he loves the club more than any supporter. He's been an excellent manager for Aberdeen but his stubbornness and god-awful football for most of the past 3 seasons will see his reputation very much tarnished with the Aberdeen fans.
  15. If we start a webchat and Rolling Hills gets his cock out and starts chugging, then that'd be conclusive proof.
  16. Agree totally. I disagree. This is McInnes' squad. We a had a team full of senior players (perhaps excluding Campbell) that he signed playing on Saturday. He's the one who signed Ojo & main & the rest. Players who're nowhere near good enough.
  17. Great to see a Celtic collapse, given their dominance of our game for the past decade. I can't see Lennon lasting much further beyond their upcoming humping by Milan on Thursday. However, if he does, they've 3 very winnable home league games and a cup final vs a championship side to build up some momentum. Rangers will have a dip at some point I'm sure, whether Celtic will be in a position to take advantage of it is another matter.
  18. Have watched that Christie interview about 15 times and it makes me well up every time. Love it. So incredibly chuffed. For myself, for my mates who I'll (hopefully) get to go to the games with, for every Scotland fan on here who's had years of torture following the team, for all the wee kids who'll get the chance to fall in love with the team seeing us at a major tournament & for the players and staff who've shown ability, determination and bucketloads of courage and thoroughly deserve this. Im so happy. Roll on June!
  19. What a night. Sounds ridiculous but I'm so proud of every last one of the players. The strength of character to come back from that equaliser, to step up and have the nerve to do it on penalties, was outstanding. Seeing Ryan Christie care so much was brilliant. He cares as much as every one of us who've invested so much emotion in following our country. Fantastic. To quote a fellow poster "Scotland forever!" 🏴󠁧󠁒󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁒󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
  20. Stuart Armstrong playing shit is he, aye? Very few including him. Clearly everyone is bitter. Jack is a good player, given McGregor's average form, it'd be a toss up between him and jack for that spot if I was picking. I'd rather trust someone I think is a superior player than go with a poorer one in better form. Is that okay? Just for reference though, Ryan Jack is an utter prick, just like you. Id even accept you scoring the winner tonight though. Now piss off and stop referencing me in every 3rd post, you utter creep.
  21. Swe, it's sly wee pieces of bullshit like this that make you come across as such an utter penis. Maybe you don't even know you're doing it. Anyway, I've no interest in engaging with you.
  22. I'd go with Marshall McTominay- Gallagher - McKenna O'Donnell Robertson McGregor - McGinn Armstrong Dykes - Christie I think he'll shoehorn in Tierney at left CB though (to calamitous effect).
  23. No, it's not. If you click to link to follow to where I pulled that post from, you'll find that you posted about 5 times in a row. All along the same lines. They're not "banter", they're gloating and smarmy & condescending. They're also along the same lines as 90% of the posts you make. You're incapable of having "banter" with others (except Ramy who is along the same lines as you). Anyway, I've answered why I've no interest in chatting football with you. I'm out now.
