Was golfing yesterday afternoon so didn't catch the games live. Watched Sportscene without knowing the scores. Hard to form an solid opinion on pretty brief highlights but thought Celtic looked very jaded and flat. Turned the telly off when Rangers scored their second, looked like a question of how many at that point. Was very surprised when I checked later and saw that Motherwell had snatched a point.

Big chance to close the gap blown. Could be critical with only 10 games to go.

Just typical Scotland. Key World Cup qualifier match in a few weeks time and pretty well everyone on the planet who isn't Scottish (indeed probably a load of Scots also) wants Scotland's opponents to win :rolleyes:

I think all the countries in the world should step aside and give Ukraine a bye to the final.
Turn up for the game then at the last minute stand aside.
That would show the FIFA money grabbers a thing or two about decency and doing the right thing.

What's your thoughts on those banners @rudebhoy ?

On Rangers, watched the game tonight. Shocking singing from the away support (sounded like the 80s).?
No away fans is the way is the way to go perhaps. Shame a lot of the clubs don't have better support.
Feel for St.J, thought they battled well.?

The banners are spot on. It's a crap idea, all about making money. Why would you play your bitterest rivals in a "friendly"? It's during the world cup so both teams will be putting out weakened teams. As a spectacle, it will be rubbish. Apparently Celtic are getting £6m for taking part, Rangers £2.5m, thats the only reason it's happening.

Why would Celtic get more than Rangers? Must be the Australian and Japanese??? connection.

Looks like The Jambos have got their Mojo back.
Halkett seems to have made such a difference.
He should be a Scotland choice now along with Gordon, Soutar, McKay and Kingsley.
All classy players.
