Excellent from the team to grind out the result on an absolute coup of a football pitch. I'd like to see a Celtic v Hibs final this year since we've gave the other two a doing in recent finals.

Thought we played ok on a paddy field 2 games away from a quadruple treble.

Well that was nerve wracking for a while there. Glad we were able to turn it up a notch and get the job done on what was a terrible playing surface. Good result.

The weather, pitch and a huge downer on Thursday; but The Bhoys held it together and got the important win - into the semi-final.
It was a tough game and although Saints were much better organized than in our previous games, we still dominated and created plenty.
Missed chances have been an issue for a while and that will sort itself out when everything clicks back into place - no mistake.
We have now won 34 cup-ties in a row no matter how we have played and that is an absolutely amazing achievement in itself.
However, if any other team on the planet was going for a record quadruple treble (one of them totally invincible) in 3 tournaments) , they would be making documentaries, penning lyrics for songs and negotiating 'movie rights'.
Like Big Billy said;'There is a Fairy Tale about this club'.

I didn't see the match but after Thursday's disappointment I was delighted with the result
By the sound of it the pitch was terrible so the result was all that mattered.

St. johnstone's pitch was a shocker should be planting totties in it not trying to play football huge leveler I thought.

This is the worst half of football I've seen from Celtic this year. No urgency. Griffiths and Eduard look like they've never played with each other. Players not being able to pass 10 yards to each other. 6'+ defenders being beaten in the air. The only positive is we haven't lost a goal. Hard to watch 😫.

Total over reaction, has it never dawned on you that the conditions are horrendous to play football on? Wouldn't be too disappointed with a draw here and get them back to Paradise. Hope we don't make same error as midweek believing it's got to be won in 90 mins.

Bizarre statement stevie, course we’ve got to believe it’s got to be won in 90 min! I agree totally about playing condition but cannot agree about not being disappointed if we take this to a replay!

Agree0 Disagree0

I want to still be in the cup at the end of the match Danny, hopefully by winning today . what I don't want is us going gung ho forward and getting caught in the last few minutes.

Really Stevie. You put the way we were playing down to the playing surface. Now that is a bizarre statement. Thankfully we managed to up our levels in the second half and stumble over the line.

After playing midweek in what probably drained the players physically and mentally, i think they done well today in very tough conditions we had some good chances but battled through, that pitch looked so heavy.

Agree1 Disagree0

01 Mar 2020 17:06:50
personaly i thought after thursdays game and on a heavy pitch that was a good battling display not the best pitch for football. bitton was superb.

Agree2 Disagree0

01 Mar 2020 17:07:45
Lawman your having a laugh. The pitch was an embarrassment game should have been called off.
the ball going everywhere stopping when it wants slowing down for nothing.
The players where falling over everytime. Celtic are all about neat quick passes don't you know this, what can we do when the ball does not go where we want it. . Never going to happen.
More pressure on Gerrard great win on the worst pitch I have ever see. Bet you st Johnston thought they could take us as our flair playing players wound not be able to handle it. This was correct our players could not but neither could the st Johnston players.

01 Mar 2020 17:56:34
And your point is FG1. You can't blame a pitch for not showing urgency or winning your personal battles. We were sluggish and our game was error strewn. I understand that the Copenhagen must have taken its toll mentally but hey get on with it. I agree with other posts Bitton was brilliant and to have gone for as long in cup competitions without defeat is amazing and will be talked about for decades.

Agreed about button maybe get his chance now. Maybe I'm just being picky Lenny is expecting to much from Taylor.
Where was moi lads was he injured. Bring on the fins st Hampden I can't wait oh but livi first Wednesday. Hope weather gd we can get back to attractive football 🤭🤭.

lawman45 you’re right it will be talked about for decades, but it won’t be by anyone other than Celtic fans .

You being serious Lawman? The pitch was an absolute quagmire. Those conditions are totally energy sapping, and no wonder the likes of Taylor was gubbed by the end. Said as soon as I saw the pitch I'd be happy to sneak a 1-0.

To think that that kind of pitch is conducive to slick passing or quick play is lunacy.

I have just read Provan and expert opinions on Celtic. He talked about Kent scoring for them and putting them into the next round, then went on to say he cost £7 million, and here's the bit that has me blown away. How Lennon would love to have been given £7million to spend on one player! Incredible! Despite the fact Kent's fee will be paid up over years in installments I can't believe he has not heard of Julianne or Eddie.

Provan is a bitter horrible wee man! He’s in the same boat as Nicholas and walker for me! Actually angers me that he once played for us! Any time there is a chance to be negative about our club he’s right in there! Said before I would ban these cants from paradise! Say anything to keep on side with their English pay masters!

He probably meant another £7 million.

Kent is owned by someone else he's not owned by rangers I can't remember how the deal got done and his name. Its a private suitor maybe (ED007 Can advise better than me) .
On the match the other day there goalie was imence we missed chances galor. The Copenhagen post says he's a hero same as there defence. Its over we move on concentrate at st Johnston. St Johnston will have every rangers fan watching and supporting them I hope everyone one of them get gutted. That would take pressure off Gerrard if we fail. He is allways running away after games. Welcome to rangers Gerrard. Let's put more pressure on him by winning today and see how the league plays out. I'm a happy tim. They thought they had us and concentrated to hard on us but forgot in Scotland others teams are tough to break down and have a go. There disrespect is haunting them and there arrogance is there downfall. They are living in the 80/ 90s as far as I'm concerned they can stay there with there past.

Ryan Kent is owned by Rangers.

Philltim are you sure.
Was it not someone else put the money up I'm sure it was. I don't realy care it was just something a ranger fan said about someone else putting the money up.

Agree0 Disagree0

Now all we need to do is win today and that will shut the other lot up again.
From a faultless to a gutless display
Hahaha.

After our result on Thursday, I will refrain from having a go at Sevco result against Hearts until WE play our game in the cup.
I was totally convinced we would win the other night and we all know we should have so.
