The Celtic supporters, unsurprisingly, weren’t pleased with Kris Commons’ typically negative remarks on the club’s current 3-5-2 formation. Speaking in his Daily Mail column today (28/09, print edition, The Verdict Supplement, back page), Commons said about the system as well as the Riga performance: “They got the job done in the end.

David, sorry but you have to read what he put as correct 100%. All he was saying is what the majority wanna be managers? Celtic supporters had been saying since the season started the truth. From all their feedback online etc. One game doesn’t make us world beaters or loosers, but to those small minded idiots moaning. Commons was telling it their way, and his to be honest Chore is never a word when it comes to watching the Bhoys. They played like it was up until yesterday. As I said one win etc. When playing against ten man defenders and not scoring that’s the players fault not Neil’s, and scraping wins is annoying but it’s still a win so who cares how you play. As long as you win is that the mentality we are supposed to have now? Yesterday’s only change was Frimpong playing better, and hibs being open & useless at shooting really.

What frustrates me with Commons’ articles is that the first thing that comes to his mind is something negative. Despite the fact Celtic have won each of their last seven matches, he continues to pluck out a negative - even on weekends when we’ve capitalised on poor results from Rangers. It feels like he looks too hard, and I was disappointed personally that he chose to focus on Riga as opposed to what was our most recent performance at the time, Hibs.
