    Well Done Jack Ross

    Led his players to a fully deserved point away from home against players costing millions in horrible circumstances. Players heads must have been all over the place today. Credit where credit is due. We shouldn't have been put in this position. But we were, and a late equiliser will do the confidence the world of good. Well played.

    This. We've got a small squad and have been battered by injuries most of the season, but we're in a good position and a result like this one will help us achieve our goals.

    Having Magennis, Cadden, Irvine, Boyle and Allan would make a big difference.

    Completely agree and I for one am getting tired of the constant stick Ross seems to be getting for absolutley everything.

    Well done Jack and continue to do what you’re doing.

    He knows we need more strength and depth and is addressing this. Getting guys like Cadden and Irvine will improve us significantly.

    We need the midfield sorted and having those players would certainly help. I think JR is a good manager and we’ll do well under him. Just needs that centre mid sorted.
    Be good if Magennis shows up sometime soon as well.

    We're dull as dishwater under Jack Ross and need far more drive and energy. Hopefully that will arrive shortly and the exit door for Drey Wright should also be a priority.

    Best for all concerned if he can be moved on. Strange signing all round.

    Yeah, I hate having a manager who guided us away from relegation and comfortably into 4th place

  14. #13
    We looked our most exciting going forward at 1-0 down the breakaway at 1-1 players clearly thought hang on we could win this. But more attacking and wild get some fans back on side.

    16 shots tonight is a good start

  15. #14
    Thought we played ok but McGinn coming on when it’s 0-0 sims Jack Ross up for me.

    Wants to see out a 0-0 rather than go for a win.

    I know you’re kidding, but the fact is that it is another big game he’s not won.

    Celtic were there for the taking tonight imo. We weren’t great and probably deserved a draw. A pretty decent performance would have seen us win that imo but it was a missed opportunity tonight.

    A decent result considering we went 1-0 down so late on but having watched us compete without playing well it feels like a bit of a disappointing result. Stevenson suggested as much in his interview as well.

    Whilst a point isn’t too bad under the circumstances I wouldn’t be rushing to praise the manager after it. It was a big opportunity missed which was alluded to by Lewis

    After three defeats, stopping the rot with a credible draw at Celtic will be welcomed. Needs to get some wins again to start building up the points tally but feel quite confident we can do so. Lots of room for improvement but still have plenty time to turn this into a very good season.

    I'm not sure we can call it an opportunity missed. They were still able to field an 18 million pound player in their lineup. Bit of perspective needed.

    Considering how impossible that must have been to prepare for it’s not a bad result and he acted with dignity.


    Do you think your security can keep you in purity, you will not shake us off above or below. Scottish friction, Scottish fiction

    It was a missed chance. We will never play as weak a Celtic team at Parkhead again. They offered next to nothing going forward.

    We should have won that game tonight.

    I wonder what value this weakened celtic are are worth?

    Folk were initially getting carried away with who they had missing - ut was still a very strong team

    We were missing Rocky, Maggennis, Allan and Boyle

    We were still a far weaker side than them

    We resstricted the to not alot while posing somewhat of a threat

    Slight disappointment we didn't win but can't complain too much

    Well then it makes very little difference then, we haven’t won there in 10 years.

    The still had a starting midfield of Rogic, Turnbull and McGregor. They had Frimpong and Laxalt as their full backs, Mickey Johnston up front who is a tricky player and supplemented by young guys who are knocking on the door of their first team.

    Jack Ross was in a really tricky position tonight; players low on confidence after 3 defeats in a row, playing against a Celtic side who, despite their missing players could still call on quality and a team of players who are down to the bare bones too. I’m saying well done and no more, to Ross, the players and the club for dealing with this whole situation with decorum and dignity and getting a point at parkhead despite losing a goal in the last 10 minutes.

    The way it panned out it wasn’t a bad point, losing a goal late but managing to show a wee bit fight to get back in to the game. When we lose the first goal we generally lose so I think that’s encouraging. Plus, a late goal always gives players a bit of a lift.

    Still think we missed a hell of a chance tonight. We’ve not won there since 2010 but we’ve not faced as weak a team there in a hell of a lot longer than that. Even the way the game went, we didn’t really have to defend much. I think we could have shown a bit more belief and went for them more. We only really did that in the first ten and last five minutes.

    Lets build on the draw and win next game. We didnt exacy do well after drawing with Rangers.

    Folk saying we played a very weakened Celtic team tonight are wrong. There were 8 players playing tonight that faced hearts in the s/c final just a few weeks back. Okay, it wasn't their strongest 11, but then again, neither was ours.

    Well done Jack and the team.

  28. #27
    Usually stick up for Ross when he's getting slated but that was gash . You can quote the cost of the Celtic team in millions but it doesn't change the fact that it was there reserves and Ross **** the bed .. again . They were there for the taking if Ross had some balls to go for the jugular

    That's not a fact though. There is no way to dress that so that it's a fact. Plenty of first picks played.

    Going for the jugular guarantees nothing. We actually done well, limiting them to a real screamer to score. Fantasy to think "going for the jugular", whatever that means, ensures us winning anything.

  30. #29
    If we'd gone for the jugular and thrown on yet another attacking player like Gullan we'd have lost. By the end of the game we had Doidge, Nisbet, Mallan, and Murphy on. That's not exactly defensive away to Celtic, not a tackle between them. Who would have sat? A knackered Gogic by himself? Putting McGinn on made absolute sense. Mental how Ross is getting such a pasting for it. That was still a very dangerous side we were playing.

    16 shots and 10 corners at Celtic park must be some sort of record for us. That doesn't get you points though. Seeing the game out does. We got our rare deserved point at that place and personally I'm delighted with it.

    I'd guess that there was more internet, radio and tv discussion on the subject than there would have been between the players.

    I think, as in most areas of life, the people actually doing the job just get on and do it.

    A draw at Celtic is always a good point.
