    Fairly pleased with point, not the performance though.

    Thought Macey looked good until the freekick, thought his positioning was poor.
    Unfortunately his poor clearance led to their free kick which led to their goal, apart from that thought he looked quite solid when asked tonight.

    6 Regular starters all played and the rest of the starting XI was made up of players who all get plenty of game time off the bench or in rotation, apart from the young American boy.

    The combined wage of Celtic's squad tonight will still have been much higher than ours.

    We played perfectly fine, I don't know how you can look at the Celtic team that started with players of the quality of Frimpong, McGregor, Laxalt, Turnball etc. and be demanding a victory.
    I never demanded a victory. I said if we’d actually played even pretty decent we’d have won. We never played great and probably got what we deserved.

    Not a bad performance by Hibs, but there's so many parts to our game need improving. Corners are absolutely brutal. Another 10 tonight and never posed a threat.

    When out of possession we're so passive in the middle of the park giving teams far too much space.

    A couple of decent signings during the window though and it could turn things around.

    Well done Hibs. We deserved to take something from the game. Glad Celtics dropped more points.

    That Celtic squad have 143 international caps between them, hibs only 9. But yeah, it's their reserves
    Slivka has 41 international caps and wasn’t good enough for Hibs. International caps doesn’t tell you much.

    If we were playing their reserves you wouldn’t be surprised to see

    Hazard
    Duffy
    Welsh
    Johnston
    Rogic
    Harper
    Dembele
    Henderson
    Okoflex

    That’s 9 of the 14 players that made it on the pitch. Before the last few games you could have put Turnbull and Soro in that list as well. Whilst it’s not quite the ‘reserves’ it wasn’t far off it.

    An ok result today but we were poor performance wise. Even a pretty decent performance would have been enough to get a win imo and as such it’s quite a disappointing result in some ways.
    I really don’t know what Hibs fans want. We’ve lost 3 in a row, gone in to this game under horrible circumstances, taken a point at Parkhead despite losing a goal in the final 10 minutes, played against ok not a full strength team but a team that still started with a midfield of Turnbull, Rogic and McGregor and had more shots on target.

    Are we really thinking this was a poor result?

    The McGinn sub has really baffled me. Why not go for the win and get a more attack minded player on? A safe substitution which has absolutely backfired.
    Convinced Ross had settled for a draw.

    I wouldn’t blame the goalie for the goal

    It was some freekick

    Not a bad performance from a team that’s not been playing well. Hopefully it’s a wee turning point.

    I said in my post it was an ok result. So no, not thinking it’s a poor result.

    The performance was pretty crap and that makes the result disappointing to an extent as they were there for the taking. As I’m typing this, Stevenson is on the tv saying the exact same thing basically.

    Tbf the guy you’re quoting doesn’t say it’s a poor result, but a disappointing performance.

    Don’t think it was a poor performance at all. Solid defensively and created some good openings. If we’d nicked a 1-0 I don’t think Celtic could have had many complaints.

    Great free kick from a £3M midfielder and a couple of shots from range for them.
    Yep agree looked better defensively Gogic had his best game in a while, Paul McGinn was excellent, Murphy good in flashes, Macey had a good debut, good to see Nisbet scoring again.

    I agree. As the game went on we didn’t create enough. Bringing on McGinn is shockingly poor. We released Ben Stirling who is a better player than McGinn, and we have young fast players on the bench. Poor from Ross.
    Ben Stirling has a long way to go before having a career anywhere near Stephen McGinn.

    I’d prefer to be bringing on Magennis or Allan but as back up he fine. He won the ball at the free kick.

    Crazy talk that Stirling with a few appearances for Hamilton is a better player. Would have been pointless at 22 keeping him for the odd few minutes anyway. A bit different a player towards the end of his career who is also helping Ross behind the scenes.

    Another couple of minutes and we win that. So frustrating to leave it so late before we turned up.

    These boards are mental. Absolutely full of attention seekers.

    Coming off the back of 2 horrible defeats, we played well tonight and apart from the 15 minutes before half time were the better team.

    Haven't won at Celtic in 10 years and all of a sudden a point is crap.

    He never won the ball. It looked like it initially, not when you see the replay. To slow to get to it. He’s not fine as back up, he’s crap.

    I reckon we need to start being a lot more positive in games. We’ve got the players to create and we’ve got the players to finish but we seem to sit far too deep and invite pressure on to us

    Definitely need a couple signings to give us a bit more options & need to get players fit again

    Far too many roasters especially on Facebook, probably Jambos. Thing is football in general is just lacking intensity. That goes for the EPL as well. How many good games have we watched on TV. Let’s face it the game in general like life at the moment is just that bit deflated.

    We started really well, first ten minutes or so. Then finished well.

    The bit in between was lacking in quality. We needed to show a bit more belief.

    McGinn is slow and ponderous. He brings nothing to the team or squad. I’m a paid up happy clapper but there was zero need to bring him on tonight.

    In the context of the strength in depth of the respective squads, us being without Marciano, Boyle, Allan, Magennis, Mackie, and losing Doig and Newell during the game, redresses quite a bit of the balance of them losing 13 players. It’s all relative.

    Good to take something from the game but we were too passive and negative again. JR is clearly a cautious man. Tonight was a night for really taking the game to them and, bar a promising open 15 mins, we didn't do that.

    Hopefully Cadden, Irvine, a fit again Magennis and Allan and a new forward to inject some life into the side.
    Would just like him to be that bit braver and throw the dice at times, maybe it's not just the players lacking a bit of belief? Still he is doing a decent job and we are in sitting 4th. Couple of signings could really energise us and push forward.

    Ultimately, we should have won tonight, sure, we had the chances to do it, but the match should have been called off and awarded to us as a 3-0.

    On paper, can’t argue with a draw at Parkhead, but disappointing not to properly stick their nonsense right up them.

    Livi also play Aberdeen. I’ll go for a draw then two Celtic wins. Realistically we won’t be coming second so let’s guarantee 4th as a minimum.

    Not a chance in hell that Celtic team would walk second imo. They weren’t any better than any other top 6 side.

    I thought we played well against a strong side. Most of celtics team tonight would walk into our team. Showed character as well to come back as it would have been easy to just chuck it. Remember when loads in here accused us if bottling it when Celtic equalised late on at er? What's the opinion on us equalizing late on tonight?
