Well we have matched the recent achievements of Belarus and Moldova beating San Marino 2-0, but failing to reach the heights of Luxembourg in recording a 3-0.
In summary, not remotely acceptable after Thursday’s debacle. The players look slow, and strangers in a team with no plan, direction or inspiration.

the performances over the last 2 games have been terrible, but i think the players need to have a good look at themselves. there seems to be no pride/ passion out there from them. yes the manager sets the formation/ tactics, but regardless of those, we should have been out there humping san marino, not getting a lack lustre 2-0 win. it’s worry that i don’t think changing manager would actually change all that much!

Watching a Northern Ireland last night another small nation they looked a far better team than Scotland.
te. He's staying.
Celtic haven't been right under Lennon. Just about every game has resulted in very flat performances for large parts of the game. The team don't look fit or focussed.
That game should have been long finished by a huge margin. Second half Celtic didn't play at all.
Why bother changing at half time when so far in control and a few players all nursing injuries? That nearly added to problems after running out of subs.
Was Rangers' goal their first shot of any kind? Fine goal, but before that they could have played all week without getting a sniff before that.
What should have been a canter was made difficult by self inflicted lack of desire. As the last game showed it's not quite as easy as turning up for the win, but it Celtic do play the gap is huge.
Brown did stitch Morelos up, but what a seriously stupid guy. He seems incapable of learning a simple lesson. Another big game where he's flopped again.
It did show that Lennon is not the right choice for the next manager. Fair enough he's ground out a few results, but that team should be playing much better.

Comical decisions, defending and miss in the Hearts V Aberdeen game. I still can't see why McKenna is so highly rated. Yet another big mistake.
Aberdeen have just lifted their foot off the pedal and aren't doing so well.
Watching back the highlights of Celtic v Rangers and it does show why Edouard is A £9m player and Morelos isn't. He is at his best when it matters. He has the other issue that he doesn't always apply himself to score lots against the lesser teams.
I'm not sure that I agree with Sportscene that Killie will be challenging for 2nd. Morelos will be banned for 4 games and I would think Kent will be rightly hammered too. 6 points and goal different is still too much.

Halliday was got a second yellow after the final whistle too so that'll prob be a couple game suspension....Morelos, Kent & Halliday suspended.....although as usual I suspect they will appeal them all (well maybe not Morelos as SG seems to have had enough of him going by his comments after the game).Aberdeen have just lifted their foot off the pedal and aren't doing so well.
