Walter has persisted with his peek-a-boo football for as long as I can
remember; when he thinks his team are inferior to the opposition.He played
the same system with a poor Everton team using Kevin Campbell as the lone
striker and it worked in so much as it preserved the teams` status in the
EPL.Did the same thing with Scotland and was praised for his abilities
compared to what had gone before.He hammered a poor Celtic for the best part
of nine years ,recognising that his domestic challenge was for the most part
a joke......However he now has a team that is four points clear in the SPL
and is facing a difficult time from some of the more discerning afficiondaos
of the darkside.It was a serious negative to play the way Rangers did in the
euro consolation cup especially considering it doesn`t really matter.From a
Celtic point of view I would obviously prefer Rangers to " c`mon have
go......" as an open entertaining game would play to Celtics` strengths but
I think Walter has a game plan and he refuses to adapt/change/update..etc
because he thinks it is the only way to win the SPL...it worked against
Tommy Burns when the going got tough and he believes it will serve him well
again.
