Ah in fairness tets, let's not start talking up unbeaten seasons in the Scottish Third Tier as if it makes them an impressive team. Conor Sammon scored twice against them in the last game of last season for example.
For Idah, it's two goals at a time they were needed (which is good) against a side who'd certainly be English fourth tier at best; maybe even non-league (which is worth pointing out).
And if it helps him develop a goalscoring habit, then I'm fine with him scoring against sides like Falkirk when the chips are down.
We have a lovely habit of trying to justify every decent performance. We all know that football throws up strange cup results and lower division teams can beat better ones. That's a relatively good lower division Scottish team who Celtic were in a difficult spot against until Idah got the goals. He has a nice habit of getting some timely important goals since he went there last season. It ok to enjoy and not have the constant navel gazing of trying to assess just how much it matters cos of the standard of the opposition.
Its really not that complicated!!!
I think it's perfectly reasonable to note the opposition. It's a fairly big factor like.
The point here isn't Falkirk lads, they're weak by comparison and he'd need to be scoring against them. The point is how absolutely low & lousy it was to pop up here today with that contribution while ignoring the lads goal in the CL in midweek.
My comment was Falkirk related. I agree it's better to score against Falkirk than not score against Falkirk.
And fair play to Adam for CL goal, despite playing just 14 minutes.
But, again, while scoring against Slovan Bratislava is infinitely better than not scoring against Slovan Bratislava, it was hardly seismic given Slovan are 45 places behind Celtic in EUFA's ten-year club rankings and Slovakia is seven adrift of Scotland in the associations list.
Sadly, despite Falkirk's burgeoning status as the raging bull of SPFL, they fail to get a ranking. Now that's low and lousy.
