Bit surprised at the team selection today. If ever there was a team we were set up to play against this season it is Celtic.
They like to keep possession, push forward but are week at the back, so as a counter attaxking team, today was made for us.
So dropping KVV for Roberts was a surprise and also OHara for Goss, guven the work rate we needed from the midfield.
That aside, I thought we started strongly and looked good until Collum decided to intervene.
The decision against McGinley for a very good tackle was laughable, but to then compound it moments later by not giving a foul on Slattery in the run up to their goal was incredible.
Yes, we should defend it better after that, but big decisions change games and we go from not getting a foul 30 yards from their goal to being 1-0 down.
We lost our way after that, and it wasnt until well into the 2nd half before we really looked dangerous again. Then enter the officials. Or not as the casr may be!
Its a stonewall penalty.
Yes we have to score it and yes, that would only make it 2-1, but at least then its a game.
Overall, I think we can do much better. We all know our midfield is dysfunctional, and we should defend the first goal better, and despite Turnbulls great strike, I still expect Kelly to get his feet off the ground for the 2nd. I also couldnt believe Kelly never once played the ball over Raltons head for Woollery to run on to, the amount of space there was in behind was ridiculous.
This wont define our season, but its frustrating as hell not to really lay a glove on a team who have so many weaknesses.
