utterly abysmal performance from united today! couldnt string two passes together, marking was awful and can someone please tell me why it took PH 83 minutes to figure out that flood was having a nightmare? also I now realise why people continue to slate Scott Robertson, he offered absolutely nothing to the team today!

again the 3 central midfielders were woefull. Daly had no support and jonny Russell is wasted out wide and the manager doesnt think he will get judged against the old firm, staight away a negative mentality to instill in the players and fans

It was a terrible game all round, dont think either team deserved to win really, celtic were poor but luckily for them we were even worse, not a great advert for our game. Just seen the rangers penalty..................absolutely shocking is the only way to describe it, i havent seen a rangers 'penalty' yet this season that was as clear cut as the penalty foul on swanson in which he was booked for diving and rangers have had more of their 'penaltys' than the rest of the SPL put together. Yep this is the way to get the fans coming back!!!!

Absolutely disgusted with the performance today. No fight and a distinct lack of ability from players that Houston signed or persists with. I have just paid the second instalment of my season ticket, but can not continue to watch the negative dross that Houston serves up.
The buck stops with the manager.

United were absolute mince today. Celtic not much better apart from first 15 minutes.
Really poor game.
Scott Robertson - can anyone explain why this idiot gets a game? The guy is a freaking liability and contributes nothing. Oh yeah, wait a minute, the goal against Hearts couple of weeks back. But that is the ONLY positive thing he has done in 4 years.
Houstie keeps starting him, and for that reason, he should follow Robertson out the door too. That, and the fact that the team were clearly not motivated and obviously didn't beleive they could take anything from a game against one of the poorest Celtic sides I've ever seen.
Gunning was clearly the man at fault at their goal. He was right with the striker just seconds before but then he stepped off him for no reason whatsoever! I was screaming at him to stick with the boy - I couldn't believe he stepped off into no-mans land.
Apart from that glaring and inexplicable error, Gunning actually did no-bad. GMS no bad too. But the rest - nada!! I think Daly managed to win one header in the whole match - inspirational captain - I think not.
I think United need to clear the books of those players who step on to the pitch with no self-belief.
We need to build a whole new team around players with the right mentality. That is what Levein did, and it worked well. The blueprint is there, we just need to find the right man to implement it.
Does anyone think Houstie is the man to build a new team? The quality of his signings has been very patchy, so I would suggest the answer is a resounding 'no'.
The fact that that match was live on TV yesterday was embarassing. it's no wonder nobody wants to sponsor Scottish Football. Vastly overpriced product played by overpaid players with limited ability.

Ok - We were horrific, but thats our first really poor performance in a while, just happened to be in one of the big games against the OF.
Robertson starting in Flood's position and playing Flood outwide is a disgrace.Just like Gomis - potentially our best player - is being played in a position he is no good at to accomodate SR who brings nothing to the team...
Just watched highlights again - Kenneth should be dropped NOW for Dillon.Look at the number of times Samaras goes right by him by just running in a straight line, loosing headers to Stokes in the box who he is probably 4" taller than, easy clearances that he manages to get 10m distance on straight to on coming opposition on the edge of our box...The guy looses headers to shorter guys, can't tackle, can't even hoof it out of play....and that is just in a 5 min montage...

NMN if flood is potentially our best player, we are in bigger trouble than i thought! Totally agree about kenneth though, can f--- off now for me!
