Dignified and Paranoid as always

Now ma hangover fuzziness has disappeared, how come you party harder whenyer team gets beat?, i decided i was in the right frame of mind to trawled the net for post match reaction to Saturdays "efforts".

Apart from the usual get GS to feck threads that we seem to generate when poor results happen for once i tend to agree wie most of the match reviews written and in today's Times i found a quote from the "cardiemiester" that sorts of backs up Celtic

“I know there were a lot of bookings but it wasn’t that sort of match tome, I didn’t think it was overly physical.

No the game was not as physical as i thought it would be. But we stillpicked up 9 (nine) bookings and for all of Smiths apparent graciousness in his comments the majority of bookings were caused by his players going doon easily in any position where there gameplan of getting as many freekicks in a"whip the baw in the box" area could be executed.

Not that there is anything wrong wie that tactic especially when it's clear from early doors that the ref will give you all the free kicks you want and ignore any studs up, tackles from behind or common assaults, one that put a guy in hospital,from anyone in a blue jersey.

Smiths gracious comments also fall on deaf ears as 1) he set up his team toplay for "soft" free kicks and 2) his backroom fud's reaction when Mick was being carried off when the fud quite clearly told the player that the challenge on Mick was what he was meant to be doing and giving him the greenlight to do it again.

Listening to pundits and reading papers has helped. All the players deserved to be booked!
Err, how come this doesn`t happen more often then? :-/ Or even once before?

Strange thing is on one hand we are getting slagged for not competing and in the same hand we are getting abuse for getting 9 players booked...

so which one was it..?
