I saw improvements last night, and losing to Napoli with their 11 men to our ten, I'm not so bothered about.
It's our squad, form, backing from board etc...these factors starting to get to me. Yes, I am being a bit negative right now, and hope things change soon. If they do I'll be the first to come on here and apologise

----------------------------------------------------------------------
What on earth would you apologise for.

You're stating a perfectly reasonable opinion based on what you are seeing on and off the park.

If things change for some unexpected reason then your view may change. That's how it works.

I'm actually sick of people criticising people for giving opinion on here. OK..you get mentalist opinions but that's not what you're doing.

I've had it for expressing my thoughts that Celtic will win the league by a good margin this year. At the moment, it looks like I might be right but things can change and if Rangers improve I'll change my opinion. I won't be apologising for it.

I also thought Celtic would win last night. Was just my opinion and it was pretty close.

Then you get guys coming on and saying 'what happened to your prediction'

Well it was just a prediction.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Guys, here I thought I was unique for once, just myself that made the point.
Drat 😀

I didn't want to seem to be singling you out. Thanks for doing it for me.

In life in general I'm an optimist believe it or not, but looking at our current form, squad, board, and manager - I'm pessimistic.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think the fact Celtic are in form has a lot to do with that mate.

They havent had a major come down domestically in a very long time…..it will happen.

I mean they are getting lauded for doing so well against Madrid…they lost 3-0 at home…and after last nights game….this sparkling team is only 1 point better off than “in major crisis” Rangers

And as said….domestically, a draw at Easter Road and a loss in the old firm is the only difference between the sides….it’s hardly disastrous

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Give them time man. It's only been 6 games.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Last season…Celtic had lost to Hearts, lost an old firm and lost at Livingston….after six games….so yeah, let’s give it time to see what happens, spot on mate,

What?

Don’t we have a wee competition for that? And on a chat forum? For football supporters?

Hang your head in shame for having the audacity to predict something
----------------------------------------------------------------------
There's quite a few reasons why I should be doing that this week to be fair

You would be hard work if you weren't so funny.

A brand new team build from the rubble of the Lennon season under a new manager who was completely changing everything from training to tactics.

As opposed to a settled team that had just been to a 'major' European final. Celtic were struggling in a lot of games at the start of the season but there were signs that it was coming good.

Rangers have been utterly dreadful and your new singings unremittingly disastrous so far (as evidenced by the fact that none of them started last night).

I'm not sure that your point is as sharp as you think it is. Mate.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think my point is pretty simple and you’ve went off in a tangent

The team that won the league last season had dropped 9 points in their first 6 matches last season

We’ve dropped 5 points so far….and the team at the top of the league hasn’t dropped anything

That 5 point gap can change, either way, very quickly

Feel free single me out, what's the difference with jfk saying to stevie, where are you going to get points from your next 3 games whilst predicting celtic might very well get 6 points from theirs.
Not only you it seems gets pulled up about predictions.

So I’m clutching at straws for being realistic

For all, I know, we could get thumped on Saturday, and Bournemouths 9-0 loss to Liverpool could look tame in a few weeks time.

Reality is, we have drawn at Easter Road which is never an easy place for us to go…..lost an old firm, which happens most seasons……and are still in with a chance of claiming 3rd in our Champions League group, which to be honest, was realistically the best we were likely to do.

Celtic in the other hand are being lauded for winning 6 games domestically, losing to Madrid and drawing with Shaktar….hold the phone, what an achievement

we were a team in transition next season, so i won't be looking at last seasons europa league form.

we had injurys, and made a lot of signings in January and summer.

i think we look a far better team this year and i'm please with how we have started the season.

posted on 15/9/22

Thought we played well last night, game was right in the balance til Sands seen red.

Not any complaints from me, thought Gio got it spot on.

Much better response from the team and Alfredo made such a difference upfront. Much more energy about us and more akin to what we seen last season.

No specific single reason St3vie. Your trend is to defend your club to the extent that I think is mere straw clutching.

That’s all. No offence. Was meant as a bit of humour to be honest. That’ll teach me

I’m happy for you

You’ve got 1 point from your last 2 games, and your home form in Europe has pretty much continued in the same vein as you’ve been showing from previous group stages…regardless of whether it was Madrid or not, that’s the reality of it.

I’ll just also use your “excuses” shall I to ignore what’s happening with us right now

We have injuries, a number of them

We’ve sold two players who were vital players in our run to the Europa League final last season (Aribo and Bassey)

We are looking poor as a result of that then I guess aye….so no need to panic

St3vie. I think we’re undefeated in the league for 38 games or something like that. It’ll come to an end of course at some point, but yes; that is a hell of an achievement.

As is the turn around from the rambling shambles post Lennon with an “unknown” manager who wouldn’t supposedly last 3 months.

Rangers recent turn around in reverse is almost Lennon esque

The domestic form well by stating Celtic have just won 6 games doesn't tell the full picture though does it?

6 wins, 25 goals scored, 1 goal conceded in the league including a 4-0 against Rangers.

A 4-1 win in the cup away from home.

That tells a story.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Um,..yes it does tell the full story

6 wins = 18 points

When you draw or lose a game….how many goals you racked up in previous matches won’t matter a jot…and it will happen
