Zombie Pain: “First half was Caixinha or warbrtuon-esque”, “We have embraced mediocrity & absolute failure”

“That first half was Caixinha or warbrtuon-esque”…Shall we revel in some Zombie misery? Why not, we deserve this…

“Celtic are champions and that’s the bottom line. Massive inquest in the summer to see what went wrong and to see where we can do better. Only hope is to stop them down int a treble!”

“So bitter and angry now. Sadly I worry that not one of our team feel likewise. I could feel worse but we weren’t cheated, out done or reffed out of the game we we’re just sh**e. Just poor and the managers tactics were those that played onto their strengths.”

‘Terrible tactics first half. Hopefully this is the kick up the arse we’ve been needing. Our first defeat under Gio and you’ve got people tweeting Beale asking for him back ahaha completely laughable. Seriously go support another team or watch a different sport if you can’t handle the pressure. Very frustrating how we completely threw the game away in 45 mins, sick to my stomach…”

“Rangers (sic) fluffed their lines in the worst kind of way.  Celt!c started as expected and even with our poor opening we didn’t react to what was clearly unfolding right infront of us. Not even after losing the 1st goal. It couldve been 3-0 after 30 mins never mind FT. I expected a reality check to be delivered to them but Rangers (sic) continue to inexplicably blow chances and create difficulties for themselves. This now is the most difficult of all with seemingly a non-stop run of wins including at least 4 from 6 points in the OFs (sic) needed. A double mountain to climb. Gio takes the heat as Manager obviously but those players should be ashamed of themselves playing like that when they are far better than the opposition. How can Rangers have tossed away the advantage and momentum that had been built up in this way? You tell me because I really do not know.”

“Virtually the whole of UK and Europe’s football fans watched that last night due to the lack of other games being on. What a bummer.”

“Heartless shameless performance from the team. Thought Arfield was the only one in the starting 11 who looked like he wanted to be there. Finding it hard to put into words how bad Barasic was, absolute coward of a man with the heart of a mouse. He didn’t want to be there at all, that third goal is criminal.  Maybe still a bit too raw but starting to worrying big time about this season.”

“Barasic I’m afraid to say needs to go, I’ve witnessed him give up on a number of occasions. I’ve seen him stop running and I’ve seen him take no responsibility one too many times. I watched him very closely one game at Ibrox and his attitude was one of “well what can I do about it?” Rather than digging in and fighting for the ball.  I don’t think Gios tactics where we seem to No want our full backs to forage forward and put crosses in helps him but for me I have watched him give up too many times.  Btw he wasn’t alone I know but his mentality is part of the wider issue that needs addressed.”

“Pause for thought. This time last year, Tav, Goldson, Barasic, Kamara, Aribo and Kent were worth about a total of £40 million minimum. Now in a fire sale we would be lucky to get £10 million max.”

“That performance has been coming for a good while now, we’ve been phoning it in for months and doing enough to just get by, anyone who thinks otherwise is deluded. That team are spineless, Barasic is an absolute sh**ebag, heart of a mouse, Kent?, Ryan f’n Kent?, when is the last time he tore anything apart other than his reputation?, the guy looks like he’s just been introduced to a football at kick off. Bassey is a left back, anything else and he’s a bombscare. McGregor redeemed himself somewhat with his saves last night but he is well on the route of diminishing returns, Tav?… he looks the part physique wise and can do a good focused stare….end of ability. Goldson?… he wants a big contract increase but performs consistently like that?…The only Bucks he knows about are all the ones he passes to anyone else when he’s involved in the calamity that is our defence, Sidepass Kamara, takes the ball, passes responsibility on as quick as possible, if no side pass on he passes it back, i would love to see the stats for his passes into attacking areas etc. Roofe?, I await his fiery social media montage of his contribution to that sh**e last night, Aribo?….is he back from ACON yet or was that a hologram last night?

6 points ahead, now 1 point behind, a defensive shambles that has conceded more goals than a (Celtic) )defence we were laughing at, more goals scored by a strike force we have sniggered at. while we’ve been living off the fat of 55 and the ‘oneupmanship’ we have embraced mediocrity and absolute failure.

That was an absolute banter years performance from us last night, it’s been borderline banter years p*sh since we came back from the winter break, Drawing with the sheep, the players letting an idiot rule over them in the shape of the legomuncher, that Ross County performance???

They will most definitely be 4 points clear of us before we kick a ball on Sunday, they will probably add to that big, growing goal difference substantially, no guarantee we will even beat Hearts…or Hibs, two teams that always show a bit of fight, passion, determination and endeavour against us… qualities that our team are lacking, cannot muster and when the opposition show them that…they f**king crumble like the absolute pussies they have blatantly shown themselves to be!
