There’s no reason for a player to even have access to their phone during a game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see the issue if he hadn’t come on yet, he should be engaged in the game. I can see the issue if he spends the rest of the match on the phone, should be taking an interest. But a quick swatch? No issues. Does it depend on the score? I would only care if I was looking desperately for anything to deflect how badly my team (or my old teammate's team) was doing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No issues. Does it depend on the score? @Swello's is the correct answer in the case of this particular controversy. Taking the question semi-seriously though, I think it's definitely a different vibe with no fans around and players/subs sitting in the stand rather than on the bench. If he's been subbed off and is parked up in the stand with a big jacket on then there's zero issue IMO. If it was normal circumstances with fans in the ground and everyone in the dugout then there's next to no chance it'd happen.

dezz Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Got a feeling this’ll be the last we see of the bold Chapman. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJC Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 (edited) That's us now lost our last ELEVEN straight games against both halves of the Old Firm. When was the last time that happened? We usually manage a least a draw here or there against one or both of them but since we drew 1-1 with Celtic in December 2018 we have lost every single one! Our approach to these games is getting worse by the year and we are beaten before a ball is even kicked. Truly pathetic!

Ron Aldo Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 He collected one that went straight at him. Otherwise no.He might not have saved any of Celtic's goals today but we'll never know since he didn't make an attempt to stop any of them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kind of take your point here but I'm not sure what Liam Polworth playing a defence splitting ball past our own defenders has to do with our overall approach. Game was done at that point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Game was done at that point. Yes but we see these sort of unforced errors in these games more and more now. We saw it a couple of months ago when we bent over against Rangers, two daft penalties conceded etc. We look terrified from the off in games against both of them and that leads to stupid, costly mistakes. That for me points to a mentality issue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
18May1991 Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 We’d be better going back to the kicking lumps out them days. Much better fun for these games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desp Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 I'm beyond giving a shit when it comes to games against Celtic and Rangers. It was an effort to even watch it today. Our mentality against them is awful, even Allan Campbell produced one of his worst performances of the season today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
well fan for life Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 I think Chapman will do a cracking job at warming the bench tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archie McSquackle Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 I would need to watch them again (unlikely) but I didn't get the first impression that Chapman could have done anything about any of the goals. Maybe that's the difference though, a better keeper makes saves you wouldn't expect them to. Where's all the mobile phone chat coming from? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Didn’t lose any league position over the course of the week. Good platform to build on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 I always used to mark these down as 3-0 defeats in any predictions, technically 4-1 is a better result. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
