Of course we can go down. TWe have so many problems, No physicality no real pace all over the pitch, Not strong enough in the 50/50s. etc. We have poor recruitment, to many mercenaries and players just not good enough or motivated enough. I'd like to see Marti get to pick a few of his own signings in January if he lasts that long.

Whoever is picking these players needs to be sacked immediately. Otherwise we'll end up like SW. struggling from crisis to crisis.

I never made that quote. This is what I said. But he isn't better than Soumare that's the point. Skipp isn't even non league standard. Quote

When is the last time he even scored in Training.

You just knew Daka would miss.

Finally the wingers have switched wings.

Put Vesty up top and go eoute one.

Low confidence causes players to miss easy chances.

What a miss.

A little better with the movement now. We need to score before h/t.

We don't have any strikers.

Winks had a good ball out to Fats and tries to find Caranza. Crazy play.

It seems like we are intent on trying to play Caranza in for a goal.

There's the annoying side of Fats. A simple ball to rico and he doesn't do it.

Our movement is much quicker in transation than the last few games.

Have to disagree, I think he wins a lot of headers in challenges, Caranza hasn't shown anything that makes his selection any more than others in the squad. We've no out ball or focal point. That's our first problem, With someone up there challenging defenders we might create something. Do I think it's perfect, No. But we have to try something different, Marti can only pick from what he has available and the options are poor. We've been rumbled and Marti has to change things around otherwise we'll continue to drop points.

We need a focal point so It's worth a try. We know he'll win headers and even that would be an improvement at the minute. He's not bad with the Ball at his feet either. Let's face it we wouldn't be breaking new ground. Walshy, Elliott, Huth, Armstrong. etc. Obviously we need a big CF but until we sign someone he's an option, AS we have plenty of CBs to play at the back.

I thought Faes done much better when he came on as a sub. I' mean he didn't concede a goal for a start. But seriously, He won a few headers made a few passes and created the chance for Caranza for the overhead kick. When nothing else is working up top what have we got to lose by giving him a run up there. He'll muscle a few defenders and maybe create something for somone else to score. What I don't want to see is Marti playing the same players, trying to do the same things again ,when it hasn't worked all season.

Here's a good read on relations between DD and Rogers, Copied from the above site. "Every player signed and every player sold during his tenure was done so with Brendan’s full knowledge, approval, and endorsement. Any insinuation otherwise is absolutely false. His later public statements about transfers and club operations came entirely out of the blue. At no point prior to those remarks had he raised any such concerns with me, Michael, or any member of the Board or executive team. In reality, he was given final say over all football matters and was consistently backed in the recruitment process — including record investment in players he personally identified and approved." Over the last several months we've all had to speculate about the extent of BR's involvement in player acquisitions. BR has strongly implied that a number of players signed by Celtic were foisted onto him. I will be very interested to see whether BR challenges that version of events. If BR does in due course challenge that version of events then he must also challenge Desmond's contention that : “When his comments were made publicly, I sought to address them directly. Brendan and I met for over three hours at his home in Scotland to discuss the issue. Despite ample opportunity, he was unable to identify a single instance where the club had obstructed or failed to support him. The facts did not match his public narrative." A number of posters are leaping to BR's defence, however, I think it is better to wait and see how he responds to Desmond's Statement.

A very intetesting read on that site. It seems they have many fans who don't like the Owners either, Which I find strange considering the success they've had since his takeover.

Surely this game is a must win now for Marti to survive. He should change things up and go more direct. He also needs to get the players passing more in forward positions instead of always trying to beat a man.

Not only deep pockets but very well connected. He's actually a very nice individual.

Brendan Rogers has resigned from Celtic tonight with Martin O Neill and Shaun Maloney taking over at Celtic. Could he return here . ? Just asking.

I've advocated this for a long time. Small saleries with big bonuses for results is the way to go.
