Yes absolutely - yer man the #99 up front was just making up the numbers especially. Kent was poor other than his two goals that won the match, hitting the post and making a few other things happen. I’ll take that sort of poor every week

Any idea the last time the old firm had only dropped 8 points between them, and averaged 3 goals a game each at this stage of the season? Not sure what to make of it all.

You’re right about Kent the 30 seconds out of 90mins was well worth the instalments over the next 5 years!

I watched the game and didn't even notice number 99.

Davies is just too fat and slow to be a footballer. I did laugh when he flattened half the Rangers team and got the free-kick himself.

Not to worry Simoid if it’s all about the Rangers we must be doing something right.

History repeating itself maybe?
They died chasing 10 and are now in financial intensive care trying to stop 10!

Here for a discussion or a troll, Sole?

I see Kent went full retard on the haircut.


The league cup final is going to immense. I think Rangers will have to dish out a physical battering in order to beat Celtic, who have so much skill over over the park.

Dave King spots the iceberg and leaves the sinking ship in mixed metaphor shocker.

[Edinburger]

Good result for Hibs last night, even if far from a great performance. A win's a win and we're four points clear in sixth place. Good start for Jack Ross.

Top coefficient work once again this evening

Celtic won at a canter tonight and had left key players out.

Group winners with a game to spare is some achievement. That is not an easy group at all.

I'm sure tactics will make sure Lazio don't qualify.

Good result for Rangers, but I thought Feyenoord should have long been out of distance.

Fine goal to equalise and that changed the game for about 10-15 minutes.

I'm sure Rangers will fancy their chances at home to Young Boys to get through.

[simoid]

Phenomenal achievement to top the group indeed.

Gers in pole position but YB are a very very good team and could do us over at Ibrox. All in the balance.

[Edinburger]

Good results for both teams.

Been hearing there’s a good chance of a stadium ban at the Young Boys game after all the sectarian nonsense.

I don't know if it is at all possible, but say Celtic or Rangers were to draw any one of Arsenal, Manchester Utd or Wolves in the next round, what do you all think the respective results would be?

For me, the either Glasgow team would defeat any of these three English teams right now. I hope it happens - how beautiful that would be?!

Wolves would be the one to avoid out of the 3 at the moment.

It might be written in the stars for Tierney to be back at Celtic Park...

Looks like anyone could take Arsenal just now. I don’t think there’s any restriction on Scottish and English teams playing each other at any round, but I think Celtic winning the group means they are seeded to avoid the UCL dropouts which could be a big bonus.

12 group winners; 12 runners up, 8 UCL dropouts = yer last 32 so I’m not quite sure how that maths works!

Yes it's too hard to predict just now, but Arsenal could easily still come second in thier Europa group, which I think would put them in the other side of the draw from Celtic. Celtic can't play Rangers, but no other country restrictions.

Who’s been telling you this Edinburger or is it just wishful thinking?
