Whilst not making any excuses for what was yet another abject Celtic performance against Dundee United, the Tannadice pitch was an absolute disgrace. By the looks of it, many of the Celtic team weren't sure whether to play football on it or to get out their buckets and spades... and start making sandcastles. If nothing else, the clip provided me with the opportunity to add the music of Squeeze and their classic hit 1978 hit "Take Me I'm Yours".show more

Whilst Dundee United players chose to play football on it and schooled your bang average diddy club

That the same pitch Dundee Utd were playing on aye? 😂😂😂

Pitch is brutal but both teams had to play on the same pitch.

They don’t call us the Arabs for nothing

‘Whilst not making any excuses’ whilst making an excuse 😂😂😂

After watching the highlights, many of the Celtic players would have been better with a bucket and spade.

@Neek1974 Beaten fair and square, stop your whinging, you think you can just roll up and win whenever, well nae fckn luck. That pitch was shite, it was shite for United, we wanted to win. Every dog has its day.

Dundee United players played on the same pitch

Utd managed to play football on it.

Wasn't it the same for both teams?

Hearts played on that very same pitch 3 days after it was flooded and won 3-0. I’ve heard to many CFC fans using this as an excuse. MoN has to take the blame for a very lopsided looking team and his in game management was shite!

Any excuse for some Squeeze is always good 😎bloody pitch is awfull though 😢

@ShwartzDelmore Good players can adapt to any surface, well they did before the 90’s

Fucking diddums

Scottish football has regressed spectacularly within the last 5 years and evidently so have the surfaces they play on, it looks more like a pitch you’d see in rural Africa , can Dundee Utd not afford groundsmen 🤦🏻‍♂️

Dens park was even worse when we had to play there in the title run in 2 seasons ago... So bad it was called off twice

I'll forgive ya for the tune, but ye'll play on similar in Europa next season.

Beat them last time at home and pitch was fine then

Fucking both teams are on the same pitch, nae excuses.

Buckets and spades !! Yes they looked like they were on holiday. Disgrace of a performance , I could have played the day

Agreed, pitch is embarrassing - but there were two teams on it.

I was there today. An awful surface, matched only with an awful performance.

Pumped on a decent pitch previously and now pumped on a poor pitch 🤷🏻‍♂️

Utd managed on it. We were pish.

both teams play on it mate 👍

From my view most of them chose their buckets and spades.

Seen better red ash parks

Both teams had to play on it , they scored twice

That's why they're nicknamed the arabs

Same pitch utd played on

The pitch was poor , celtic were poor , 7 matches left , we will beat huns and hearts ,and they play each other, Celtic will win league....

At least no-one blamed climate change this time:

Blaming the pitch it wasn’t just Celtic who played on it Dundee Utd also had too aswell, don’t see them moaning🤣🤣

Im sure both teams had to play on it.
