You'd be lucky if 3 people praised our performance last week. But everyone comes out the woodwork when we don't play well or don't win. Was it a bad performance yes but seems there's a lot of you that prefer to criticise than praise.

My comments on here have been very consistent, giving the team credit where it's due - like I did after the Hertz game - and showing concern or disappointment on other occasions.
Unfortunately, over the whole of this season, there has not been as many good/ great performances, to applaud or celebrate as I'd like - given position, resources and facilities at our disposal.
Over the whole season, the fact is, our form, play and results have often attracted more concerns than plaudits in all honesty.
We all support the team and share every emotion, day in day out, but there cannot be any hiding from the fact that we are so inconsistent; whether it be seasoned Internationals under-performing or line-ups, formations and substitutions not working.
We are well known for gathering momentum after the New Year and finishing seasons in style with confidence, but there seems to be a hesitancy and inconsistency this season and I don't know if it's a lack of confidence, fitness or ability, but it's unlike us.

Toprig, fans are bound to be critical about the way the team is playing, we are 6 games from the end of the season and if we don't improve we could end up losing the league, with no sevco and our huge financial advantages that to me would be one of the biggest humiliations in our history.
I don't think it matters how many people criticise or praise them, the important thing for me is that the team start performing on the pitch and don't make us feel totally embarrassed come the end of the season.

Toprig, I for one take no pleasure whatsoever in criticising our team management etc but the results and just as importantly the performances this whole season aren't anywhere near good enough that's a fact. This improvement we keep hearing about from Ronny regarding the team, I'm sorry but I don't see it . Yes we may be 5 points clear and yes we may well still win the double but I'm sorry that doesn't cover up the performances and results. The fact is that if Aberdeen were consistent and we continue to put in bang average performances then the league table may very well look a lot different than it currently does. With the finances we have over the rest of the spfl, wages we pay, transfer fees etc compared to Aberdeen and the likes we should be winning this league at a canter not struggling over the line mate.

To be honest guys i have been a critic of RD for months and can't understand what his formation/ tactics are all about and his constant chop and change of starting line ups, he always comes across really well in interviews and sounds knowledgable but when you watch the team play it's as though we have one plan for a game and regardless how the games going he sticks with it. He talks about high tempo and attractive attacking football but his ideas and instructions aren't getting carried out for whatever reasons. I hope we finish the season strong and win the double but with Ronny in charge i'm nervous. I think we need a major clear out of players and someone with fresh ideas with a good proven track record but who knows what PL and the board think. maybe there delighted with ronnys work. 😫.

Toprig the bottom line is there has been more to criticise than praise this season and what has been said in the 3 posts below yours I couldn't agree more, with our resources we should be watching a far better and consistent team. Our attitude and performance on Saturday was what we should have been seeing in the vast majority of our games this season but we have under performed far too often

Toprig

It's guys like you who make me smash my head against a brick wall. We are Celtic and it is an expectation for us to be winning EVERY game against the other teams in our league. Will we do this? No but I expect us to do it and also had a bit of faith in previous seasons that we could win any game. Now I would be surprised if 50% of our fans have confidence that we will win on Saturday at Fir Park.

I watched the Hearts game and they were actually the better team for 75% of the game. They had 60+ percent possession against us. Yes we won be I wouldn't praise that as a good performance.

If you are happy with the way things are and how the team are performing then you need your head read.

Gaz A little bit negative, we are in a fine position 5 points clear, vastly superior goal difference and only 6 games left .

I am surprised R D and players have got themselves in such a good position with so many doing their desperate best to destroy the confidence of R D and players .
