RobertN 386 Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 If you are going to change penalty taker do it in a game where it does not matter where you are winning already Just in case it turns out he his not very good at it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven33jackie 1,882 Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 I had no problems with him being on penalties, but given the way his games was going it probably wasn't the best decision to hand him the ball. Although hindsight is a marvelous thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tav basically got called out by that fanny sutton, he had the chance to GIRFUH and passed on the responsibility to Morelos, whether this was agreed before hand nobody knows but as Captain Tav has to step up and show some balls and the fact he never is unforgivable and cowardly. Spot on. I've said it about 10 times on here since the final whistle, but he's no captain. I like him as a player and in terms of performance he did well today. But he's a shitebag, no one will tell me otherwise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GA1972 9,057 Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Might be our top scorer but takes a certain kind of player to be a penalty taker Alfredo isn’t that kind of player Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe start at a game at Ibrox when we're 3-0 up against Hamilton or something though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dado'sMulls 2,592 Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Could have bet my life's earnings on Morelos missing that penalty, let's be honest, hes pretty pish one on one. Give him time to get the keeper in his sights he'll hit him more often than not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hindsight is a wonderful thing, absolutely no problem with Morelos hitting it given the form he’s in. Spot on. End thread. No need to bitch and moan at a decision that sadly didn't go our way. It happens. Getting on the players backs today is utterly pointless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmcf 33,940 Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Tbh , I can see the sense in it . Tav's confidence is down , he's missed a few this season , so he needs another miss , in a cup final , against the tarriers , like a hole in the head . It was also a glorious opportunity to break Morelos's duck against them . However . Not during the game as it appeared to be . This should have been sorted beforehand , so Morelos has a chance to psyche himself up , instead of just been tossed the ball , without a warning on such a major occasion . Lets face it , that goes in and we're winning the cup . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not someone known for bottling it against them and missed everything all day. He's a shitebag bastard and we've known this for too fucking long. Perennial loser. He needs hunted.

Morelos fucked it I have said it a ton of times today but the media are in Morelos' head. "Not made it until he scores against celtic". Anyone with an ounce of common sense knows that is utter bollocks but I truly believe that will be annoying Morelos more than it should and as such he was desperate to score today. No composure sadly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
