Just catching up with the weekend papers about the football. A bit late yes but reading throught them all the same. The Aberdeen game we lost, but the attacks on us by Celtic manager and some players about our bully boy tactics last wednesday. Mura'sNakas was picked on and came in for some heavy handed challenges according to Strachan (i used ot really like Strachan, his quips were always funny and he came across as a good football man, then he took the Celtic jobs, got snowed under with all the bile and paranoia and now he comes across as nothing more than an arse) and the silky tippy tappy scotland cap that is Scott Brown.
WELL FUCK THEM!
I wish our management team or chairman would show some balls and come out and defend us, even at the detriment of starting some sort of war of words. really, it would maybe stoke some fires in the belly for our trip to Parkhead next week. Why cant we cobble together a video of off colour challenges from the cup game and bookend them with the Fernandez challenge of two seasons ago, the amount of times Celtic resorted to cynical fouls in order to get themsleves back in position was alarming, shirt pulling, blatant obstructions, the lot, why dont we show this to the media, packaged nicley it highlight our plight. Teh Fernandez assault in particular shows what a "doing" actually is, and its not in the slightest like the hard but fair tackles put in on Celtics special teams player. In fact another incident i remember was from our 1st game of the season last year, we held Celtic to a nil nil if you recall. Wullie (Wullie) Gibson goes to go past John Kennedy and enter the box, Kennedy squares off his knee so Gibson has to go over it, effectively tackling him above the knee, he goes down and its a Killie free kick, all in the game i suppose, a cynical foul but a good one. But you have to remember that Kennedy himself was the victim of the most cynical of fouls while on international duty and had the sympathy of all Scottish football after that, for me when he did that it was a big kick in the teeth, how could he do that and risk injuring another player. These little incidents are forgotten.
My gamble at the weekend had me win with Leeds on Saturday afternoon and then Barca at night. Kitty increased to 70quid ish. 6 in a row! No bet on Sunday but £35 on Brum on Monday, they got beat! Gutted is not the word, thought i was untouichable, so much for that. Inter Milan made it two losses on the bounce last night also, drawing three each with a Cypriot team, a Cypriot team! managed by Temuri Ketsbaia who is most famous for kicking advertisment boards at Newcastle. The special one was not happy, and neither was Inter boss Mourinho!
