Not going to be to hard on the team today, we've been brilliant and consistent all season. got a few issues with the team, not just today but the past few months! First of all bitton cannot be allowed to continue in the first team, one of the most frustrating players I've ever watched. he's slow predictable and has the heart of a mouse! He's got to be dropped asap!
2nd is and it's understandable why that we've seriously lost our edge and sharpness of late! I'm hoping that today's result gives them that wee boot up the arse they need going into the final few weeks of the season!
Today was merely a blip and it gives me a giggle to see the joy in the sevconians faces after scraping a draw, even though they're further away from the sheep shaggers and #goingfor55 is officially dead! Lol the treble is well and truly on and today will ensure no more complacency creeps in! HH 🍀🍀.

Evening lads. thought that was the poorest we have played today all season imo, cpl of plus points tho. If all these scouts were up looking at dembele that performance might have put a few off ( fingers crossed) . also don't think we will be so off the boil for the next games, think rodgers will be raging with the performance.
13 Mar 2017 06:45:39
Dunno about Rodgers being ragging, but Broony looked like he was going to dish out a few throat chops at full time.

See the ref today got 840 quid for that crap performance today the cheek to ask fr 1000 a game for part timers laughing all the way to the lodge mean bank lol.
12 Mar 2017 21:18:26
The build up to the match had nearly every pundit talking about how easy it was going to be, and how likely it was that we would score 4,5,or even 6.
I think that spurred Sevco on, as because so little was expected from them, they could just get in our faces, knock us about, and be happy in the knowledge that anything under a 3-0 defeat would be seen as some sort of triumph.
Our players on the other hand never really got going, whether this was down to complacency, or they found the expectation hard to handle I'm not really sure.
The positive thing I'll take from the game today is that I don't think Sevco have got any more, that was the best they could do, whilst we probably gave our poorest performance of the season and we still should have won. I'd far rather the players have their off day today when there is nothing really at stake.
12 Mar 2017 21:12:43
we were awful today, nothing went right. I ain't going to go through it all as I'd just be repeating what's already been said. It was helluva funny watching them celebrating a draw at CP at full time as if they had won the league. I have absolutely no worries though, don't let this result get you down. They and the press will go on about how great Sevco are and how they've turned the corner, blah, blah, blah.
I don't see complacency at Celts, as has already been insinuated by some, we have clear objectives and are looking in great shape! We didn't play well today and drew. that's it!
Nite, nite.
12 Mar 2017 22:59:43
Celtic looked nervous expections on the team to much. huns had nothing to lose.
12 Mar 2017 21:01:46
It was a low energy off-tempo performance today. Our danger men were anonymous and we really looked tired and off the pace. It was a strange sort of game. It seems as if the finishing line is in sight and we are stumbling over it. The first half against St. Mirren was bad but today was worse.
Beating that lot should be the only motivation you need, but today it was missing. This stage of the season is when I expect the management to really exert their influence to keep the team focused and hungry. I am hoping BRs interview after the game praising the team was for public consumption and that he give them a right bollocking behind closed doors. Yes the team has been brilliant all season, but they weren't today.
I am giving no credit to Sevco. They are a shite house of a team and club. Some of the challenges were fit for nothing other than MMA. How Hill, Holt and Miller made it to half-time is bemusing. I am not going to blame the pish ref though. We got what we deserved from the game and need to be thankful Gordon had a great game. Just want to say Armstrong was immense and continues to impress me no end. I hope the management give the team a massive boot up the hole before our next game. Standards need to be maintained!
12 Mar 2017 20:32:06
Do you think if Celtic go the season unbeaten it would ever be done again i know there's a bit to go and when games become meaningless the harder it becomes to do it but would be amazing to do it HH.
12 Mar 2017 22:34:57
I think this going all season unbeaten might be affecting the performances.
12 Mar 2017 19:49:20
Can I just add .
McGregor gets pelters from some quarters, but I thought he was excellent when he came on today.
12 Mar 2017 20:15:41
Agreed, especially first 10/ 15 minutes of the second half. Most impact of the 3 subs.
12 Mar 2017 20:56:46
I disagree, though he made a few too many long passes, but his hearts in the right place,
He's a long way to go yet to be a regular select.
12 Mar 2017 21:27:00
Think it would have been much more effective if Griffith's had come on instead of McGregor.
12 Mar 2017 22:35:20
Mcgregor is having a good season.
Chipped in with goals and assistsee plus must have played about 5 different positions.
12 Mar 2017 23:06:54
Can't blame mcgregor played well taking off Armstrong was biggest mistake only real goal threat today, Sinclair and dembele won't play that badly again. hopefully Rogic returns soon push bitton out of team.
12 Mar 2017 18:04:05
Bit gutted with the result, would of liked the 3 points, but realistically might be just what we needed and probably deserved.
They came out and had to give it their all - which credit to them was a hard effort. However don't by any means think a gaps closed or there's similarities in the teams - as some deluded rangers fans think. This was the same situation in the semi-final last year. It was a day where Celtic didn't give it there all, we started playing a lot of long balls and giving possession away cheaply, whether that's to do with rangers effort or just not our day. If the team had stepped the game up by even an extra level we know the game would of been out of sight. (For any ex bear's reading, this isn't an excuse its football some times teams don't perform to their standard on the day)
As for the penalty we all know it was a penalty. It wasn't given, but the game should of been put to bed within the first half so we didn't need to wait for decisions like that. No excuse.
Now, as I said earlier, why that result was necessary. I believe we've had the kick up the Erse that was needed. Come the semi-final the team will know complacency is not an option. We need to kill the game off instantly. I recon the next derby will be the one where you see the gap shown again.
Hail hail.
12 Mar 2017 18:39:08
Game changed after taking off Armstrong our best player, Sinclair should have came off before Forrest just not his day. might not have given them penalty but denied us stonewaller anywhere else on the park that's a yellow.
12 Mar 2017 19:00:27
Agreed, armstrong said his calf's were tight after the game. If they'd still have got the draw, we would be asking why he wasn't subbed. Better to have him long term.
I agree Sinclair wasn't at his best today. Quiet. Maybe subbing him was the better option (a wake up call) . Even moussa for griffths was the possibly the right move but players like Sinclair and moussa need only that one chance to change a a game. Its a risk taking them off.
12 Mar 2017 23:19:58
As much as it pains me to say but Forrest should have stayed on and Sinclair should have been hooked not that Forrest did a lot but Sinclair was anonymous today I would also have just swapped Dembele for Griffiths when we went to two up front I felt it gave sevco the upper hand in midfield Robert's didn't seem up for it when he came on sviatchenko was all out of sort's all in all a bad day at the office for many hopefully the disappointment will spur them on for the cup game as no matter the result was today it would have had no effect on the title race, however, we need to be better in the cup game if we want to complete the treble.
12 Mar 2017 18:03:46
Just got the penalty incident cleared up on the news benny hill said it was maybe if he was the ref we would have got it not lol.
12 Mar 2017 17:31:48
Not got much to say about today really apart from well done Craig Gordon.

12 Mar 2017 22:26:14
Honest mistakes? Sorry you've mislead me there - I thought it was a picture off the Dembele dive and Scott Brown's off the ball incidents!
12 Mar 2017 17:22:42
Against my better judgement I went to game today with the girls, I would have been better staying at home.
Our draw was NOT because of the referee, yes Madden saved them but we were poor and did not deserve to win.
For some reason the team has become complacent in last couple of games, I genuinely think they are reading all the praise and letting it get to their heads. We were so off the pace for long spells today we made them look almost decent, almost I said. I hate Biton in our team, he slows everything down and NEVER passes forward. Schiavenchenko was poor in defence, Gordon's distribution was poor and put us under pressure. Dembele tried hard but was out of touch, and Sinclair just never got going.
I have to blame Rodgers also, for PRAISING team after the game WTF.
The only good thing that came out of game was that our players will be slaughtered in the papers tomorrow and the phone ins will be full of gleeful huns led by BFDJ all saying the same thing "the gap has closed"
If Rodgers is the manager I think he is, he will make the players read all the gleeful hun press and tell them to bank it for the semi final.
12 Mar 2017 18:06:39
Gordon's distribution poor? On one ocassion, yes, but that apart it was excellent.
If the two teams playing today wore different colitis and you knew nothing about them, you would say that the referee cost one of the teams - how Miller was not red carded let alone getting away without a yellow is beyond me, as is how Hill stayed on the pitch to see half time. Waghorn was diving around all over the place like he was in a ballet and how a penalty was not given, I have no clue whatsoever.
Granted, we were miles from our best today, but God in heaven, a competent unbiased referee would have seen the game end with 11v8 and a stonewall penalty awarded.
I don't agree with your assessment at all.
12 Mar 2017 19:09:51
Why is bitton in the team?, how many times has he played well this season? .
12 Mar 2017 22:24:54
Can't disagree with any of that Timbo Still can't believe Boyata strolling at 1 point when he must have thought Miller wouldn't catch the long ball. Thought McGregor was excellent when he came on really like the Wee man.
12 Mar 2017 22:27:38
@timalloy - never mind the phone ins! Here's one gleeful Hun who has just seen the worst Rangers team in history take a point of the all conquering Celtic.
12 Mar 2017 22:29:50
Agreed Tim- "I'm proud of the players today" was a strange comment from Rodgers. I think he was angry and has to take some of the blame for Celtics attitude today. Everybody and their granny knew they'd be well up for it today and would try and stop us playing which they did although ably assisted by Bobby Midden.
12 Mar 2017 17:17:25
We were due a bad 1 . They played as good as they could ever have expected . Id expect a different mind set next time .
From master to grand master in the space of 90 mins for scotlands finest whistler .
12 Mar 2017 17:11:51
Like to ask your opinion on the penalty decision today like I would have liked to asked the panel on the phone in who didn't think it was if there was a video review panel do you think it would have been given your thoughts HH.
12 Mar 2017 18:07:36
Definitely! '
12 Mar 2017 22:23:46
When the player commiting the foul admits he got away with 1 then I think it's pretty much case closed. He was struggling once LG turned him but he had to try and make an intervention for me it's a pen all day long!

12 Mar 2017 16:01:53
First time poster luv the banter bhoys here's my opinion not our best performance today however some thought they had won the league tripping a below par performance from the hoops better now than the semi 33 points clear unbeaten run still going can't wait till video refs are brought in kwow it's a bit away but takes the big decisions away from refs who don't look competent. Anyone who has had past allegiances should not b the man in the middle. Think I'm fair minded but the people who supply the refs have got a lot to answer to if I performed at work like that I'd get the bullet brilliant season so far bhoys HH.
{Ed007's Note - Welcome aboard mate.}
12 Mar 2017 16:49:20
Below par is the understatement of the day. We were woeful. A shocking display. Gutless and the passing a sped and power AWOL.
The central defence needs replaced as both of them are prone to continually make mistakes. Every time they are on the ball your heart misses umpteen beats.
Dembele was terrible, his decision making was him getting a goal and he failed to release to players in better positions. His touch made him look as if he was wearing clown shoes.
Sinclair was nowhere. Posted missing. Button wasn't worth one.
Brown, Tierney, Armstrong the inky three out players who came anywhere near their form, the rest need their arses kicked for that display.
Shows the board we need to spend because at least four players on the park need replaced with better.
Gutted. Made that shower of mediocrity look half decent.
That's how bad we were today.
12 Mar 2017 16:49:00
Thanks ed007 great stuff.

I was disappointed with the result and the performance today, so I just had a wee look at the league table, didnae half make me smile! 😜
Hail Hail.
12 Mar 2017 22:22:35
There is nothing to smile about today.
We all thought that we shoukd nail them. And we should have. That was gutless and clueless all rolled into one.
Last week first half was terrible, today was even worse.
As for that fanny walker giving them a gee up blabbing I wish that twat would just feck off. He's a boring can't of a commentator to boot.
Macca should keep his mouth shut too.
I really thought that was a shameful display today. No smiling or even a forced grin.
12 Mar 2017 15:18:56
Very poor performance not helped by some rare poor decision making by Rodgers. Ok forced into substitution with Bitton being injured but why not replace him with Kouassi (like for like) . If he ain't ready now when will he be ready. Roberts on for Forrest after 70 mins why not after an hour. Armstrong looked to be our main threat yet taken off for Griffiths when it should have been Griffiths on for Dembele (again like for like) , All in all poor decisions and poor performance too many players failed to turn up and i also thought Eric looked nervous on the ball and everytime he passed the ball it looked like being short. Plenty people have a go at Bitton but look at the change when he went off a lot of his work goes unnoticed. The only plus to come out of this is we had our worst game of the season and they still couldn't beat us. I can't take much more from it hopefully the return of Rogic soon and giving Kouassi more game time will get us back on form. Although we were woeful its difficult to be to critical after the season we have had it was just a bad day at the office it just so happens we saved it for these reptiles. Now on to that mason ref the decision over the Holt assault on Roberts was an utter disgrace. This man shouldn't ref another SPL game again never mind a Celtic Sevco game. I did not expect the honest mistake to be so blatant. Useless cheating **** is the least i will call him today.
12 Mar 2017 18:13:05
I thought McGregor did excellently when he came on - Bitton was pedestrian and that's being charitable.
The ref was a total see you next Tuesday - so many appalling decisions and not giving what was a blatant penalty was just something that I could not believe at all. If he was wearing an orange sash, he could not have made his cheating any more obvious.
12 Mar 2017 18:26:20
I also thought McGregor did well but he's not a holding midfielder so it wasn't a like for like substitution. Totally disagree regarding Bitton.
12 Mar 2017 22:15:26
@stan19 - 100% agree. Madden was a disgrace. How Dembele was never booked for his dive or Brown for his constant fouls off the ball I'll never know?
12 Mar 2017 15:11:40
Poor team performance today. Dembele and Sinclair were very disappointing and Armstrong going off really worked against us I felt. Defence was shaky and far too much backwards passing for the home team in a derby. An uncharacteristic performance overall but I'd rather have it now than in the semi-final.
12 Mar 2017 14:52:33
We all knew what to expect from Madden and although he did influence the game and let a few tackles go unpunished - we still have enough about us to beat any domestic opponent at home with a full strength team.
Pre match comments and boasts were always going to add fuel to the fixture and when most of the team under-perform on the day - then we make things difficult.
Tierney, Brown, Gordon and Armstrong were about the only Celtic players on form -although Dembele did put a power of work in without the goals we expect from him.
Sinclair had his worst game of the season and should have been replaced, while Forrest failed to run at them with any conviction or intent and although he set up the goal - was replaced by PR who made little impact as the withdrawal of Armstrong seemed to hand them a lifeline.
At the end of the day we are disappointed - but still undefeated and can't play much worse, while they drew with 12 men and reacted like they won the lottery.
Not a lot learned today but a wee kick up the arse for a few that needed it.
Six points and two trophies still to go while they celebrate their point - take their eye off the baw and finish fifth.
12 Mar 2017 15:04:17
What work did dembele do mate? He never looked interesting today. Constantly waiting on the ball coming to his feet and not once did he challenge in the air. Just hope we are more up for it in the semi now.
12 Mar 2017 15:23:59
Nah, too many not playing today.
On the positive side, another point and THEY never got to claim our undefeated record so that's good.
Gordon put in a good shift which I was pleased to see and we had at least one stonewall penalty turned down. Overall, not our best performance by a long chalk but that's it done and I hope the players take note for the semi final coming up.
12 Mar 2017 16:02:55
that's it in a nutshell
we didn't do enough to win the game (leaving aside all the ifs)
we can't be angry, maybe a little upset but they gave everything and we looked as tho we were just training.
12 Mar 2017 16:08:36
Thought dembele was poor by his standards and didn't do enough.
12 Mar 2017 16:09:15
Gordon and Armstrong the only players that get passmarks for me and Grif tried hard when he came on. Didn't understand Broonies man of the match award and I'm a Broonie fan and KT had his worst game of the season and Sinclair was anonymous.
12 Mar 2017 22:17:49
@passingtime - after his lack of effort and goals is Moussa now valued at £38 million or does the Dembele Calculator only have a plus button?
12 Mar 2017 22:28:31
Dembelle was awful. Absolutely awful. Sinclair pulled his invisible man routine. Button the back passing master giving the ball to Boyata and schevchenko, who is getting worse every game, just added to the demands upon my Valium drip.
If we go into the CL with they two at the back we can look forward to many tankings. Simo needs a partner in the summer, Mcgreggor, Button, Gary Mackay Sitter can join them out the door too.
Hopefully this shambolic performance will remind them the treble is still to be won. And if they play like that in April it won't happen at all.
Totally gutted at that today. I hope the players feel a tenth as bad and maybe ensure they make amends at hampden.
12 Mar 2017 14:38:13

Let's not forget, still unbeaten this season, another point towards our title and Sevco celebrating a draw against our worst performance this season. I'd much rather give them some hope in this game rather than the Semi Final. Chalk this down to experience, get the league won and hammer these imposters in the SC. MTH!

12 Mar 2017 14:37:15
Players having a great season to now is fantastic, but we are hitting the business end of the season now and it's time for the players to step up. Some on the chat saying Sinclair etc have been amazing this season so they can get away with today? Nonsense! Sinclair should have been off before Forrest, he was none existent today. And on another note I've never ever seen a team celebrate a draw like that in my life. Don't worry The The The Rangers, you're still closer to Inverness in the table than you are Celtic👍.
12 Mar 2017 15:15:39
Exactly Michael. I've got some egg on my face, but the way in which the two sets of players, coaching staff and fans are reacting really does just emphasise the gap. Rangers are just another SPFL side, coming to Celtic Park and celebrating a draw like the game of their lives.
12 Mar 2017 15:21:53
Michael
If you are going to quote me at least do it correctly. I said "we can't expect every player to be amazing every week".
Can I just ask who you would replace Sinclair with? Armstrong who was poor in that position for 1 season, not just 1 game?
GMS who isn't Celtic class?
Forrest who can't cut inside and can't get round the outside when played on the left?
Roberts who has never played on the left in the 14 months he has been at Celtic?
Compelling argument there!
We are still unbeaten after 28 league games, won 1 trophy and in the semi final of another and STILL you aren't happy? Why not go away and support that mob so you have something to celebrate.
12 Mar 2017 15:35:24
Nial so because you think Forrest or Roberts can't play on left you think Sinclair should be left on even tho he was the worst player on the pitch? I'm 30 years of age and 16 stone but I still think I coulda put in more effort in that game than Sinclair did. As as for your Go support the mob across the city, maybe you should as your footballing knowledge definitely lives up to about there expectations 👍😂.
12 Mar 2017 15:58:06
Sinclair wasnt the only bad player today. Dembele was every bit as bad as him. And your tone is a disgarce saying that to another celtic fan cos he has an opinion. 30 yr old grow up.
12 Mar 2017 16:02:14
Cue next game Sinclair plays a blinder you will be on here ranting and raving about how good a player he is. So I take it you have a vendetta about Larsson having a howler against Hibs on his debut then?
12 Mar 2017 16:05:36
business end of the season lol
for the league cup - won
for the league - won
Scottish cup - ah business end of the Scottish cup - 2 games we need to play well in and like to win - but not the end of the world.
our business end now should be securing players in early and getting ready for qualifiers as that really is all that matters now.
12 Mar 2017 16:21:19
Michael is correct it was a bad day at the office. No point throwing your toys out the pram because we didn't win. It happens. We will win the treble. All that matters.
12 Mar 2017 17:00:59
I agree that sinclair has had better days at the office than today but I would always keep him on in those games he's always capable of something out of nothing.
Before I'm shot down I'm not giving him a license to play badly I just think he's a cracking player.
Nobody showed up today except tierney who i thought was our best player defensive and going forward.
12 Mar 2017 17:04:59
Johnny
So that gives him the right to single Sinclair out for criticism? This guy has scored nearly 20 goals this season for us. He can't be expected to being amazing in each and every single game and he is a match-winner who could get a goal out of nothing, St Mirren last week anyone?
Lots were poor performances today, Eric, Boyata, Forrest, Roberts and Dembele were not themselves. Griffiths did nothing when he came on. These guys have all proven themselves to be capable this season and should have produced better but no criticism of them from our 16 stone friend from Dundee.
13 Mar 2017 09:50:12
Nobody said Sinclair is a bad player. What has been said repeatedly is he had a shocker. He was invisible. He gets praised when he plays well and rightly so, but, by feck, he deserves to be slaughtered because of the level of ability he had and the importance of him to the team. He will know he was pish. If he doesn't a look at the game will confirm it.
He needs to man up and take criticism and show in the semi it was just a bad day. It was.
Dembele? As above. Only adding, to be fair he did play in big Clown Shoes as his touch confirmed.
No easy.
We move on but they need to channel the rage into a performance at hampden and Ibrox that will bring their paper house to the ground. Again.
12 Mar 2017 14:35:31
Hopefully that will make us up our game for the semi final and charge towards the treble. Hail hail.
12 Mar 2017 14:11:28
We were not good enough, we should have punished that lot today, madden was terrible but what did we expect, at least we have 2 more attempts to hammer them. HH.
12 Mar 2017 14:18:00
Outwith the pen decision at the end with Griffith's and the Holt tackle on Roberts which was a foul all day long, i don't think the ref had much else of note to do. End of the day we were brutal. Sinclair, Forrest, dembele, svitchenko, boyata. The lists endless were all terrible.
12 Mar 2017 14:22:28
What about the fact it took over the hill 4 professional fouls before he got booked, I'm not saying madden was the reason we lost but he was poor.
12 Mar 2017 14:31:58
Kev, I'm no saying madden wasn't poor or the cause we never won the game mate, we never won that game because on the day we, by our own high standards this season were rotten. For me too many passes, not enough directness and far too slow in going forward. That said it's hard to be to critical given how the seasons went so far.
12 Mar 2017 14:38:59
We were poor today but should have still won. Thought Bobby Madden was terrible but what did we expect. Miller should have walked early doors and Clint Hill could have got 2 yellows.
12 Mar 2017 14:48:17
And what about Miller's challenge in the first couple of minutes on Armstrong? Yes he missed him, but my god the intent was brutal!
And I totally agree with Kev - how was Hill even still in the pitch?!
12 Mar 2017 14:59:37
Hill SHOULD have been a yellow on at least threes occasions and a straight red for the penalty.
12 Mar 2017 15:37:23
I couldn't belive millers went unpunished 2 footed, studs up and off the ground technically worth 2 red cards.
The penalty that never was was even worse. It was a foul outside the box 1st then a foul inside equals penalty.
In fairness to the zombies they were organised and just seemed to want it more than we did. Didn't help that our big game players didn't show up.
We will need to wait a couple weeks more for the title.
12 Mar 2017 15:16:02
Who cares about hammering them. any victory over them does me! We were poor we shouldn't need to worry about the ref. if we play our game and to our strengths we should be out of sight. Big wake up call for the semi final here's hoping the pitch is better.
12 Mar 2017 14:10:16
Off the boil today
For me Armstrong being subbed was the wrong move.
Eric was poor today as we're sunclair and moussa
Forrest brought more to the team than paddy today and I'm a massive PR fan
Gordon played well
Definite penalty and some shocking challengers. I was hoping eboue would come on to steady the ship and maybe dish a bit out, maybe in the semi.
On the positive we're still unbeaten and is sooner have a blip here than in the Scottish cup.

Couldn't agree more island. Armstrong off and groffiths on changed the game - and not in a good way. Maybe the hot was knackered or injured. Eboue was surely the man to bring on and shore it up.
PR was stinking (and I'm a fan) , Erik was rotten and never saw scotty or big moussa.
Really, really disappointed with that.

Cmon lads think your being unfair with paddy. He never really had the time to settle into the game and he came on when they where pushing on to us. He never seen mich of the ball and that was down to how bad we were getting. Same with griffiths he couldn't get into it.

I agree mate. The league is won we have not been beaten. Players will be gutted and much more up for the semi. Played poor and got punished. It could have been 5 3 today. And madden is a blue nose so we were lucky to finish with 11 men and not give away a penalty. 4 games away from a treble. HAIL HAIK.

I like erik and boyata
but they seemed the wrong pairing today, maybe just nerves, but we weren't as solid as we have been.

I know Rodgers has done brilliantly, but why in the name of God did he take Armstrong? That was a dreadful decision.
12 Mar 2017 14:22:18
I'm with you Andy, and if he was injured. eboue in a like for like?
He's the boss and he's done great things - but that was a strange one.
Quick mention ti big CG couple very important saves today - well done big man.

Ok take it back, Armstrong was injured.

Listen in a season where we're performing at such a high level on and off the park. I must admit I'm hugly disappointed that was a disgrace! No team who employs guys such as Clint Hill and Kenny miller should ever take a point at parknead. These guys are so far over the hill they are a mere speck on the horizon and wouldn't be in a bloody job in any other top league, many may disagree as miller is by far there best player this year but the truth is he is well past it if not playing here. I know the team has given us many great experiences this term but the least we should expect is to hammer that mob at home no excuses.

Rangers looked better than thier usual and our passing wasn't as crisp. Fine.
Bobby madden.
12 Mar 2017 14:07:43
Absolutely. They are just desperate to stop us and it is beyond a joke now. How these clowns are even debating this on tv is beyond me. And that's the Scotland manager - God in heaven.
12 Mar 2017 14:06:23
That was a shameful performance from us.
Apart from Armstrong we were awful.
Made that shower look not bad.
12 Mar 2017 13:55:28
Is there a new rule that you have to make 3 fouls before a penalty is given? Yet again the ref bails that lot out. Absolutely appalling decision to not give it.

The team have been exceptionally consistent and great to watch most of the season and BR has prepared, organised and reorganised the side with sublime assurance.
However, as superior as we are all over the pitch, I would hate over-confidence and complacency to spoil the day.
