I was expecting the 2nd goal for a while pity we couldn't hold on a bit longer. At least it wasn't a cup match it's worse losing a last minute goal tio Celtic in the cup. 6 of that Celtic team were signed in the summer. We signed Douglas from queens park and Severin on the last day . Did Celtic win the league today or was it just a game. Big game next week , a win in Motherwell and we go 3rd. |

The ceptic celebrations after the game were a bit over the top Not convinced by severin as a central defender in this game the fact his hands seemed to draw the ball towards them didn't help I think he handled it about 3-4 times in all not deliberatley though. My overall assement of us is that with webster gone defence is nowhere as good as last year but we should still get top 6 and it's going to be a shootout between us Motherwell and the edinburgh teams for the uefa spots. |

Huh, I thought Severin played well today, winning balls in the air which a relatively wee guy had no right to win. His real worth is probably in games against the lesser lights of the league where ability on the ball is more important than the ability to defend desperately but, even in a game which was backs to the wall at times, I thought he coped well. He's no Andy Webster, granted, but he'll play more games than Webster and probably costs one fifth the price. I think he and Kenneth are a nice balance. |

Seven, I think. (i) The keeper (whoever he is), (ii) the big baldy thug at centre half, (iii) the left back (who was excellent), (iv) Stokes on the right wing, (v) Ledley and (vi) the giant Korean dude in central midfield, (vii) Hooper up front. Unless the Korean dude was signed by Mowbray last season. I lose track of all the Korean dudes. |

Given if he is 1/5 of the price of webster then he is a good signing but he is no webster he is a back up central defender his main position is midfielder and he is clearly playing out of position his wayward hands just one indication. |

I didn't see any handball's personally and am quite happy with him at centre half. Certainly we don't need him in central midfield and he wasn't signed to play in central midfield. We do need him at centre half and he's played very well there. You're entitled to express a different opinion though. |

Ki's been at Celtic for a while I think, but didn't play under Mowbary. Probably why he was sacked, I thought he looked pretty good today. But they did sign the right back, Cha, who wasn't playing today. So probably is 7. |

I thought the opposite. I think Loovens and Masterwhatever had him covered easily, and the times he had any space or time, he was nowhere. And worse, was the times the ball broke and he was so slow to react, it was a bit poor from him. I still like him as a player, but thought we saw all of the worst parts and little of the good parts today. |

I don't know, Lennon is bigging up the team spirit stuff, and why not celebrate when you've scored in the last minute to maintain a 100% record before a big game. |

I like Daly, but he's been pish recently. I suppose it's all relative. |

They're a good team. Some of the football today was second only to the stuff we come up with (but with a better defence and better strikers). They look better than the hun. |

I'm not sure, Lennon won the last game, rangers have a far busier schedule. Still think Rangers will win, but will be a lot closer than I thought it would have been. |

I think he's been up and down, but was far better in last couple of games. But it's not really much of an issue. He's one of our first picks I'm sure, and will deliver for us. |
