ian1964 10,720 Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 by Andrew Dickson WALTER SMITH has dismissed debate on the goal difference situation in the race for the SPL title and insists winning games is all that matters. Much has been made of Celtic slashing the gap to just four goals in Rangers' favour after demolishing St Mirren 7-0 last weekend. However, Smith says securing three points against Inverness tonight is all that interests him. Walter SmithHe said: "Obviously, the most important thing for us at the moment is to win every game we play. That counts more than anything else. "Of course, it's our objective to go out and score as many goals as we can. That's what we try to do in every game. "But the most important thing for me between now and the end of the season is we show a consistency in terms of winning. If we can do that, I'll be happy. "For league championships to be decided by goal difference is unusual so all we can do is try to get as many victories as possible and see where it takes us. "Although Celtic had a seven-point advantage over us not that long ago, the teams have been quite tight this season. "As you look at the statistics now and the way the league has panned out, there is not a lot between us at all. "There is pressure on both halves of the Old Firm to win all of their games, regardless of whether one team plays before the other or not. "As such, we have to keep picking up maximum points. We are on a decent run just now and have to keep that going." 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CammyF 7,986 Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Hard to argue with really, win all our remaining games by 1-0 and we'll win not only the SPL title, but the treble (and I'll suffer a cardiac problem no doubt!!). Cammy F 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cammy F Exactly. Too much is made of goal difference because of our win under Eck. Unlikely to be repeated any time soon. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
