Ya Bezzer!

The home is basically a traditional Motherwell strip without any unnecessary gimmicks - except for the collar which spoils it a bit. Either make it a V neck or a scoop neck, the hybrid design just doesn't look good. Overall though I like it outwith the collar. I'm sure the away top will fly out the shop but is completely pointless as a 2nd kit.

Never been to Stranraer so looking forward to getting down there and ticking another ground off the list.

Someone I know who has been a season ticket holder for 2 seasons has got their renewal literature in but myself who has been a season ticket holder for 25 years hasn't! Probably end up walking to Fir Park to do it since I only live 5 minutes away but I generally don't buy my season ticket until nearer the new season anyway.

Bowman has his merits but he's scored 9 league goals in 56 appearances. Even though his goalscoring improved last season he still only got 7 league goals. That's not enough for over a season. Between them Main and Bowman only scored 3 goals in our last 11 matches from 18 starts and 4 sub appearances. A goal every 6 matches from your strikers is way off. Goal scoring has been a problem since Moult left and even more so since Tanner's injury. It's one of the things Robinson will have to sort out during the close season. We need a 'natural' goalscorer and they don't grow on trees.

Care to expand?

I thought the front two did OK considering the service they got.

Went for Campbell.

Celtic haven't lost a Scottish Cup Final against anyone other than Rangers or Aberdeen since 1961. Today was always going to be a uphill task. Truth is if you get to the semi final stage you are much better off drawing them then because to beat them in the Final requires something exceptional. Not really talking about today because the players deserved some applause after the match for getting to the final but I do feel as if there has been a sort of 'Tartan Army' mentality creeping into some of our support recently.

Careful, you'll go on the happy clappy hit list. We at least had 4 or 5 goal scoring opportunities which is probably more than the last three finals combined but there were just too many 5 or 6 out of ten performances for us to ever be in contention. No surprise that the same problems we've had all season were there today. Robinson needs to be brave in the summer and bin that whole midfield sans Campbell because it hasn't and never will be good enough. I like Main in general but he's not Moult's replacement. He had a couple of chances today that he really had to get at least on target. Main is the guy you play your 'Moult' off of. Finding a goalscorer will be difficult but it will have to be done as we've really struggled to score post Louie. We'll see what happens in the close season, hopefully the areas that need improvement will be strengthened.

Wasn't many failures in the team today but Ciftci did things today that as a football fan you'd actually pay to watch. Some touch - just a shame he has the fitness and mobility of Ann Widdecombe.

Aye, with McHugh on the bench......which probably won't happen.

Glorious day, played good football on the grass, bunch of youth players came through with aplomb, saw some magic skill and we cuffed our local rivals. What's not to like? I just hope guys like McLean, Turnbull, Maguire, Brown etc become the focus for next season.

Actually played much better football without heid the baws up front. Beautiful back heel flick from Ciftci will live long in the memory.

Nice ball in from Turnbull. Good to see the wee bit quality coming from the youths.

Was working last night but watching the highlights I think Main really needs a goal v Accies. Only scored once in his last 11 league matches and he's looking a bit tight, tetchy and frustrated. Was apparent against St. Johnstone as well when he fluffed a few chances and had a couple of temper tantrums with other players.

Yeah he's been Celtic's best striker this season. Without wanting to tempt fate I've never been that impressed with Dembele when I've seen him played against us.

I'd agree that there wasn't much in it until they scored but I'd make two points. 1) St. Johnstone looked like they might actually score. They had some edge up front and we really didn't have anything. 2) The game in the early stages was played as if it was a pre season friendly match. We had a couple of good moves and touches but there was just no intensity there at all. That for me was really the disappointing thing. You'd have thought the summer holidays were coming early instead of us having an extra, and massively important, game.

Only difference is in the play off we were playing against a team that were struggling in the Championship. In the cup final we are playing a team on the cusp of a historic double treble. The gulf in opposition is huge. I'd also argue that the play off team actually had much better players in it. There's no doubt we'd have a better chance of winning if we went into the game in high confidence with some quality performances behind us.

I disagree with that. Today was just a continuation of last week when Dundee created chance after chance. The only difference was St. Johnstone scored when Dundee spurned theirs, I mean Dundee should have 1-0 last week after about 6 seconds.

To be honest the score line flatters St.Johnstone a bit but we've come out in the run up to a final and played at pre-season pace and that's really disappointing. Very, very low intensity match until the visitors scored. They went up a few gears we didn't. We have absolutely nothing middle to front and Ciftci is basically a waste of space and a midfield of Grimshaw, McHugh and Campbell isn't a go-er I'm afraid.

According to the BBC we have a lot of new signings.

Would rather go into the game with an injury or two than have the entire first team not having played for two weeks. Let's face it, Celtic are better in every position anyway, we aren't going to win this off a couple of star players. We don't even have a Louis Moult level player now. It's going to be about energy, sharpness, team work etc. One week off and levels drop significantly.

Don't think it would be a bad thing to have a battle before the cup final.

My first league win since the 14th October so I'm not going to complain too much but it was the sort of game you win off of the oppositions inabilities rather than your own good play. Dundee created and missed so many chances it was unreal, yet couldn't defend a couple of high balls into the box. Middle to front there wasn't a lot going on, our forwards didn't really feature in the match and we got our goals from loading the box. Still nice to see Kipre get his first goal. Overall the suspect a better team would have scored a few of the chances Dundee created but a wins a win.
