Aye I only caught a wee bit on the radio there on the way home and there raving about how good we were tonight.

We have been the best team in the league this season. It is a shame the points total does not reflect that 

I think sometimes the table can lie a little.

Just a fantastic result and performance.

[Ya Bezzer!]

Fortress Fir Park continues.

Just 1 defeat in our last 17 home matches.....and we should have won the one we lost!

To be honest it was pretty much what we've seen for most of the season.  We treated Celtic like any other team, did our thing and looked  pretty good at it.

Well worthy of the win, players were excellent to a man but they generally have been for most of the season.

Obviously it's great to beat Celtic, we've had that result coming for a while after a few near misses.

But we should put it behind us and make sure we go into the St Mirren focused.  We are where we are at this stage of the season and there is no reason we can't do even better. 

There is no team in the league that's better than us, so I say, look upwards.....

…….and Another clean sheet to add to our list for Ward and the team

[santheman]

It was some performance.

Celtic never really got to grips with us tactically or physically which was a bit of a surprise really but that was down to how good we were as opposed to how bad Celtic were.

3 yellows in 5 minutes for them showed how frustrated they were at not bring able to get back into the game.

How Scales lasted as long as he did without the inevitable yellow card remains a mystery.

[Spiderpig]

It was only two goals, should have been at least 4 dominated them from start to finish, make no mistake that was a pumping of epic proportions.

So a great nights work to end the year, bring on St Mirren.

I could be tempted to say we will never have a better chance to beat them because they are one of the poorest Celtic teams in years. That said I've seen us fall to beat this mob in any incarnation in 11 years so I have zero confidence that we can beat them tomorrow. The last game at Celtic Park completely encapsulates our efforts against Celtic over the years. Different day same capitulation when we had them. A sore one tomorrow definately on the cards. There will be plenty plaudits and empty positives but we will still get the same points as we'd get from a horsing

I've never been so delighted to be a mile out. As fine a performance I've ever seen us play against Celtic.

Hiya Tom Boyd

Hiya ya odious, sanctimonious dribbling prick 👋

[Kmcalpin]

Amazing result and performance. A long overdue win against Celtic and we did it in style. A healthy crowd too. 

Now  we need fo focus on St Mirren.

So, the optimists will see this a chance of bouncing back and ending a run of eleven(?) losses in as many of our last home games against Celtic.

But this won’t be any different.

Either 0-4 or 2-3 with them scoring the winner in stoppage time. 
 

Either way we just don’t have what it takes to win this one. 

The natural order has been restored. MJC gets it completely wrong again and we win.

You better believe I am. 
 

And seeing as you mentioned it, if there are any Rangers or Hearts fans looking in and feel like offering us a patronising “thanks for doing us a favour tonight” type kind of appreciation.

All I can say to them is “It is an absolute fucking pleasure” 🙂

[Spit_It_Out]

Too easy and we were not at full strength aswell missing our top goalscorer that second goal like a pack of lions hunting down its prey!Fantastic to watch.

I tell you one player who doesnt get alot of praise but for me has been outstanding week in week out is Fadinger just goes about his business and never ever gives up brilliant player.

[Walker86]

Magnificent. They had no answers.

Great performance! Without arguably two of our most important players in Maswanhise and Welsh too.

 

[grizzlyg]

One of the best performances i have seen in years and without 2 of our best players.

This season has just been a joy and long may it continue.  Would be so fitting if we could lift the Scottish cup

The best bit about it is that the result is not really a surprise. I really do believe that Motherwell are the best team in the league right now. 

[Welly Machine]

Never seen us so comfortable against Celtic over a full game and that's since the 80's . Absolute domination.

A few better decisions away from making it even more comfortable.

Incredible we were able to do it and put so much in a few days after all the effort put in at Ibrox, and without our top scorer.

 

[wellfan]

We absolutely dominated that game. 

[grumpy]

That was the most comprehensive victory I've ever seen against them.

I don't think I've enjoyed a game as much as that for years, some of the passing to play our way out of our box just left me shaking with laughter.

[mio]

Just getting in from the game….. I am so happy I dragged my fat mince pied arse off the couch to go to that. Absolutely outstanding to man. I have watched us play them since the 1970s, in that time I’ve seen some cracking games but I’ve never seen us totally outclass a Celtic team. They were absolutely schooled tonight. 

players, manager, fans…… a brilliant night. One I’ll remember forever.
