Pathetic- hurting Jambo can’t cope with Jota’s Goal of the Season Award

Adam Kennedy was a very angry Jambo last night.
With his club in freefall and heading for a fifth place finish in the SPFL he really should have more to worry about than Jota picking up a Goal of the Season Award.
Kennedy knows loads about football because he does some media work for Lowland League outfit East Kilbride.
Like many in Scottish football the sight of Celtic winning at anything causes an irrational degree of alarm and pain.
Jota’s goal in the September Glasgow derby was a thing of beauty but maybe too smart for a Jambo more impressed by a blooter from the halfway line.
Josip Juranovic took a quick free kick that caught three opponents sleeping. Matt O’Riley and Jota quickly realised that there was an opening, the midfielder’s pass was picked up by his team-mate who raced away from the defenders then slowed up enough to produce a brilliant dink over the goalkeeper, across goal and into the net.
If ever you needed proof as to where Scottish football is at, here you are.
Pathetic. https://t.co/c84lQRVWj7

It was a poll of Scottish professional football players who obviously know a great deal more about the beautiful game than you.

Correct mate ? there’s only one fanbase that fails to see that…

Aye, one of Shanklands 37 penalties should’ve win the award. Imagine being third with a double digit points lead and then struggling not to end up in 5th place. Pathetic.

Do you know anything about football?? Quick thinking from the free kick, the pass was sublime, the run from Jota, the vision from ORiley to pick him out, the first touch and the finish from Jota. It was pure football. Maybe a lucky strike that could have went anywhere was better

Your bio says “everyone’s got an opinion”.
This was the players vote for goal of the season.
In the opinion of those players who voted for Jota’s goal, it was the best goal of the season.
What’s your issue with that?
