Don't often say this after such a loss but fair play you were much the better team today.
JM was complaining today but even if we had have gotten a few more decisions our way we wouldn't have deserved the win. Our performance was summed up perfectly by Dobson kick for touch.
You brought good numbers today and you look like a good no frills team that plays the odds and executes a game plan to perfection.
Good luck this season and maybe you repay the favour at the Galpharm.

I'll echo that. As I have said on another thread I thought we'd get beaten. After a hard derby probably the 3 teams you would want to avoid would be Saints, Hudds and Catalans as a) they are the form teams and b) they are big and very physical, the last thing you would want to meet and would need to be fully fresh and on top form to deal with. After Friday I knew we would be far from it and clearly Celtic took a lot less out of your tank. Also your bench was awesome, much stronger than ours and it was a surprise to me that ours was so lightweight in comparison. Crabtree is always a thorn in our side, he always plays well and tries to offload and hoped we might get him last season. I don't think anyone on your side really under performed, Robinson kicked us to death and Hodgson is top class. Really hope you break the Saints/Leeds domination!
