Well it's a lot bloody better than any manager since, so, yeah, pretty good.

Won 2, or 3 times in Glasgow too?

So, yeah , pretty good 

Won’t see us win at ibrox 3 times in the next 20/30 year.

I think this shows how far we and Scottish football has fallen. 

Not having a go at DMC or you chief, just scunnered with football right now.

No I know, I share your pain

We are basically arguing on here over the last few days about the best way to lose

I heard on the radio yesterday morning that the last time Celtic failed to score at Pittodrie was 2001.

If that’s true that’s a complete joke 😂

[NorfolkDandy]

I suspect JG has put himself in a no win (No pun intended) situation after Saturday's embarrassment

Whilst a win against the Huns would be nice it'll simply lead to, and quite rightly in my opinion, even more finger pointing

Lose, more so heavily, and I think it sadly becomes a race to the bottom for him, and the current perpetual cycle continues for us

This game has actually taken on more importance than we thought possible ( yes I can’t imagine that either). Goodwin really is in shit street if we get pumped, but as stated by others win and it means he really did balls up on Saturday and owes us an apology 

[Don_Corleone]

The last game against Sevco we basically left so much space everywhere that they were running through us constantly and had about 500 shots on goal, could easily have been 10 goals against. We also hardly posed any threat going forward.

The game against Celtic we parked the bus on the 18 yard line for the entire game and let them have about 99% possession and they still had about 200 shots on goal, and inevitably scored one. We once again posed zero threat going forward.

There must be some kind of happy medium surely. Neither of these approaches is effective. The last Sevco game where Goodwin seemed to think we "had a go" was a total shambles, possibly the biggest shambles I've ever seen from us, so bad it was almost like watching a comedy. 

I wouldn't be surprised if Goodwin ends up going 1 up front for this game and brings Hayes in for Duk. Maybe even goes 4231. Not saying it's what I would do, but got a feeling he might try it.

Worryingly from his interviews it appears Goodwin doesn't seem to think the happy medium exists.  It's either gung ho shambles like Ibrox or the cowardly shitshow witnessed on Saturday

The thing is his "gung ho" approach posed just as little attacking threat as the cowardly approach from Saturday. It wasn't gung ho in the sense we were actually pouring forward in attack, just that we were leaving players up, meaning our LCB and RCB were covering their wide players meaning only Stewart was left defending centrally, and only Ramadani was providing cover. Ridiculous approach. Not sure what he was hoping to achieve with that. Who knows what we'll end up getting tomorrow night!

Exactly - it was a complete shambles obvious to everyone in the ground apart from Goodwin

43 games in a row. April 2021 closest to a clean sheet. Griffiths scored in the 93rd minute

Tactically inept.

The alarm bells are definitely ringing. 

[WesthillWanderersFC]

Sounds like the Huns will have Goldson, Davies & the young lad King all available to bolster their defence tomorrow unfortunately.

Was hoping we’d be up against Sands & Lundstrum like Hibs were lucky enough to get.

Perhaps we should take a leaf out of Liverpool's old Koppite chant https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SnWHanfn6FA

Or seeing as we're Atlanta's wee team, a rousing rendition of soccerball's favourite 'I believe that we will win!!'

This ⬆️ although you know if we win he will try and justify Saturday by saying Celtic are a better team than the dead club.

[Zeus]

Probably the most CBA I've ever been prior to a match vs them unfortunately 

Might change later in the day

Don’t know if this genuine, but assuming it is, lol. 

Why do these groups always take themselves so seriously?

[DelMonte]

1st home game of the season. Been to Ross County away and Dundee United away so far this season so we are fucked. Apologies.

Seems sensible. It’s mental how crammed that area is with kids and women. 

[thurso]

Not asking for the team to be gung ho tonight but we can’t sit as deep as Saturday and our midfield has to engage with theirs and press them giving them no time on the ball

Aye, just fire into them and make some crunching tackles early on. MacKenzie put in a proper crunching tackle at the weekend - need more of that, win the ball and send the man flying in the process - bit of aggression that we seem to lack. We should just play the same setup and system we have been playing at home previously which seems to work. Roll up the sleeves, go toe to toe with them, go to war and we'll see if we're good enough on the night. No need to dramatically change the whole system and setup for a game against this lot - just get the players fired up for it and go at them. Oh and find a way to get Hayes into the starting line up as he's the kind of character we need for games like this.
