BigBearButt 3,566 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Very disappointed in the players and more so the manager tonight. A reaction to this is where we will see our mettle. Tonight unfortunately had shades of last jan/feb. It was an absolutely shocking performance all round, I dont think any of our players apart from Tav would get over a 5 and it has shown weakness. It will be very interesting to see what Gerrard says. He spoke very recently about standards and you would struggle to find any wearing blue that met them tonight. They looked pedestrian and disinterested. Lets not kid ourselves this will also give them a massive boost across the city. We need a massive performance at the weekend and send out a statement with a convincing win. Nothing else will do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernLights 2,526 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Summed it up that we spent 25 minutes passing the ball round in midfield then as soon as they conceded they went on the attack to get another one. We played scared and unimaginative today Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't kind yourself it isn't. celtic have won plenty of silverware yet they got put out to Ross County at Parkhead. It was good winning every game up until now, incredible in fact, but we had to lose at some point. I’m glad it’s tonight in the league cup and not in the league.

We’re also 13 points (albeit having played 2 additional games) in front of celtic in the league. Tonight doesn’t undo all that good work. It doesn’t effect it at all. Im sorry but it absolutely does it puts players on a downer which brings complacency just look at what bad results has done to them across the city, You cant honestly be positive losing one of the best chances at silverware with the teams that were already out.

WE had the ball and gifted them a corner from fucking around at the back Kamara. Kent at their 1st, along with naive Bassey. Bassey poor at their 2nd too. Too many individual mistakes, and too many below par performances. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup look at celtic and hearts or them and ross county this is why every game is taken one at a time and should be fielded with the strongest team possible Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odds on favourites to win a trophy without them in it and we bottle it instantly at the first hint of maybe being successful. It’s bigger than a football problem it’s a mentality problem and this cup was perfect for us to overcome that. Failed again Exactly the point I was trying to make in the inevitable car crash thread I’ll have been responsible for by the morning. Need to sign off this I’m fucking beyond words angry. Sick to my stomach thinking about what could happen from this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s last season. It’s concerning due to the similarities but we all agreed prior to this one game that we are a different animal to then. A big game against Motherwell, we need to win.

After we lost the second we looked shaky I will agree. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkylineBlue 22,589 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 2 minutes ago, DBBTB said: Of course it does. We had just about as clear a run at that trophy as you can get and because we were favourites there was a bit of pressure on us to deliver it and we’ve fallen at the first hurdle. Most of the momentum we have built up is gone now and with the run of games we have coming up people are going to start being nervous and asking questions. It's a real tough 4 games in the lead up to January 2nd. There's the potential for the whole season to change in any one of those games and noone should underestimate that.

GA1972 9,057 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 It’s either good that it happened now and not in the league Or it’s the catalyst for us to fuck up the league as well, suppose we’ll get an idea of where we are at the weekend Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BearInTheToon 1,575 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Didn’t see the game as I was working. But just seen the score and that’s an inexcusable result. Should never happen a Rangers team with a squad like ours and after celtic were already put out. Different if we were a team who had multiple titles and trophies, but that’s a massive, massive worry given it was their big chance to finally win something.
