St. Johnstone wasted the game as a spectacle but we're going to get games like that and Celtic dealt with the circumstances well.
I'm sorry for repeating myself about the fouls but Ange must've had a word with his players after the Aberdeen game because our players have stopped being erratic.
Today Celtic had a season best of only committing 6 fouls in the whole game and it definitely helped with the flow of the match.
St. Johnstone are still dangerous opponents because they're well organised and Celtic will need to play well at Hampden to reach the Final.

Not great but it was all about the points job done pressure on sevco ?.

I think we are now giving the honest mistake merchants less opportunity to penalize us with persistent stoppages and award soft fouls, but I'm sure it will happen again -especially away from home. Unfortunately, open-season on kicking Celtic players without due reprimand or punishment is another matter and unless Celtic call them out, it will see the injury list appearing again.

You are correct OAB unless Celtic FC come out with a statement about the terrible refereeing decisions IN ALL GAMES nothing will get done Does anyone think Sevco would let all this go? I don't think so.

The problem wasn't St Johnstone wasting the game as a spectacle, the problem was, well, at least in my eyes, was that there was no one able to make the sort of pass, or exchange of passes to open up their defence, so we just kept passing the ball from one side of their box to the other then back a bit, one side to the other, before eventually getting it back to Hart, I mean the possession, and passes made, figures will look great, but what's the point
, there was one occasion, you could see Kyogo was wanting the ball played in, to run onto, but instead, the ball was played into the midfield, and over to the other wing.

100% OAB2, this has been going on for years and years.
All roads lead back to the Lanarkshire Referee's Assoc - call this out for what it is!
