TONY THE TIGER – 5/10 – Fault The Brickie? For 100% committment, taking a machete to the heid and generally reflecting in his countenance the mood of every fan? No, he’ll never purposely let you down.

CALMAC – 4/10 – Sought to assert himself and be the hammer of the harpies once more, but the control he gained after the first quarter mysteriously slipped beyond the break. Whatever command he thought he had, evaporated under confusion and hustle; leading to a multitude of midfield breakdowns and trips to consult with the sidelines.
THE TERMINATOR – 4/10 – I believed he might be the bhoy to raise us out of the mire as time dragged on. But though he applied himself pretty well physically, the guile wasn’t there, nor the decision-making in moments of opportunity.

HAKUNA HATATE – 4.5/10 – Never got going. His finish was sublime and should have led to a Reo masterclass. Yet for all his movement, nothing else fell his way and he never seemed to be settling into the pivotal role that defines so many of his quality displays and our wins off the back of that.
Blessed are ye that expect nothing.
Ye shall not be disappointed.
“My job is to give them confidence “
Celtic seem to have hired a motivational snake oil salesman when a football manager was required.
The confidence of Scales et al has been shattered.
Calmac reduced to the role of on pitch message boy.
Ange did not come in and change a system that was working.
He implented a system that was suited to the skills of the playing panel.
To see Hoops fans exiting in droves during the games reminds me of Rangers support who we have derided .
“Now is the winter of our discontent “
The tide always turns.
Dundee Utd🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻.Hail Hail.

This is down to the players, stinking attitude and even more honking play, woeful under 3 managers this season, in spite of the rose tinted glasses applied to Martins relatively easy league games.
Ratings pretty much spot on, if slightly generous to Liam.
