    Credit where it's due. Craig has reacted well since he got back in to the team. Their quality on the ball needs to be better, especially Robertson IMO, but they both put a real shift in.

    Need them to start chipping in with a few goals now.

    Craig put a lot of challenges in and won a fair few of them. This is a good start to him making amends and I will change my view of him if he keeps it up for a few more games.

    Liam Craig was really good tonight. Keep it up and be the player we all know you can be.

    Very positive as I thought Robertson was starting to run out of chances. Stubbs obviously sees something in training

    I can't stand Robertson. Even I'd admit he had a very good game.

    Don't rate Craig but thought he was tremendous last night. Worked hard, won a lot of headers and challenges, and released a number of quick accurate passes to keep tempo up.

    I was impressed by Craig but I felt Robertson was a bit of a liability again. We won at Ibrox though so who actually cares!

    They both did ok at bombing around the middle closing players down. But still don't have the composure to distribute the ball in that position.

    i think Stubbs is realising this and needs Allan to do the creative work.

    Compare craig and Robertson to gomis and bauben and you see my point. They can tackle and pass. Take them out the hearts team and they are no better than us. If anything we could be slightly stronger.

    Craig was outstanding, stubbs given him kick up arse needed? Hope so, let's see how he does on Saturday

    Was it really worth logging on to share that with us?

    I thought Allan was much better in the more forward of the midfield.

    Can't understand how anyone can say either had a bad game last night, both did their jobs effectively and played to the standard we all want?

    You have just proved that some fans will never give a player a chance. Robertson and Craig played exceptionally well. As did the whole team in fact. I said on another forum that Booth should play over Stevenson as Lewis doesn't have the attributes to be a wing back where booth does. 4 assists later I admit I was very very wrong. Why can't you do the same for Robertson? Does he have to score 6 goals against hearts just to get pass marks lol?

    Allen to me was outstanding however I feel this took a lot of pressure of Craig which allowed him to go and do a job for us last night.

    This was a 100% "team performance" IMHO
    The two wing backs Lewis and Gray put the Rangers defence under so much pressure from about 15 minutes in that our midfield were allowed room to " move" and they took it : R/C/A all played well !!

    "A good night at the office " for all concerned

    Yep no failures last night at all. Recently there have been loads of times to have a pop at a player last night was nowhere near being one of them. Enjoy the win, great performance.

    Their confidence still isn't that high so they did really well considering. Allan was good too, all 3 have given Stubbs a tough decision when McGeouch gets back from suspension

    Robertson has a good engine that is needed in a combative midfield and Craig was doing less pointing and shouting and more just getting stuck in, much improved keep it up.

    2 problems with Robertson

    His first touch is always heavy
    His pass is always under hit

    Puts us under alot of pressure in tight situations. Can't knock the guys commitment though, works his socks off, full of heart

    The main thing that struck me about Robertson last night was the number of defensive headers he won. The Rangers were pretty direct at times but it didn't even get past Robertson and Craig most of the time who did a cracking job of protecting the back 3 - a job that they have often struggled to do in the past.

    And so we should be, if we're playing against nine men

    Of course I would like to see Robertson (and everyone else) play well, and I'm confident that he is a good player. Although yesterday was his best performance in quite a while, I still think he's poor - compared to what he's actually capable of.

    I think Booth showed last night why Stevenson is first pick. Booth still has lots to laern about keeping shape and make the right decisions.
