    It's often difficult to have a bit of perspective after a disappointing, but it's important we remember a couple of things.

    1. We were poor today. Our top performers didn't show, and there was an element of complacency in that last half our. Rangers gave it their all and were 'delighted' with a point.

    2. A poor draw feels like a defeat, but that might give us a wee boot up the backside that we need ahead of the run-in.

    3. An unbeaten season and a treble is still on for us. It'll be difficult, but it's still possible.

    4. We've come a long way since last Summer and one of our closest rivals will feel like they've climbed a mountain just to stop us winning.

    5. Another referee might well have given the penalty at the end.

    Brooney, Armstrong, Tierney, McGregor and Gordon are the only players who get pass marks today.

    Lustig, Bitton, and Jamesy were all distinctly average.

    Dembele was poor. The two centre backs awful. And Sinclair... well * me, Sinclair was beyond brutal for the entire match! So much so, that he should not start the next match. Form can dip... of course it can... but he looked complacent as * at times todays! He needs a short-sharp reminder that he's not Billy-Big-Baws!

    I get that we're trying to build a team that's comfy in possession everywhere on the park (particularly so we improve against continental opposition), but this was not the game to stick so stubbornly to the formula.

    Rangers were a shambles in defence! Every free kick in the final third of the pitch should have gone into their box, or around their box... instead, it went backwards... and backwards... and oops... it was either lost under pressure by one of the CB's, or one of them served CG with a stinking * on a plate and he had to carry the can. Advantage of a Free-Kick, to lost-posession within 10 secs because we wanted to be clever and show we could build from the back and score pretty-goals!

    And what do Rangers do... against a supposedly better defence... they go route-one... and they score!

    I'm * raging!

    They still couldn't win. We can't get any worse and they still needed the luck of the ref to get a point.

    We could go on and on about the penalty. Griffiths had the oppurtunity to get his shot away earlier and yes it should have been a penalty. I am still angry and still would have been angry about the performance even if we had scored at the end. We should be winning comfortably against them. At the end of the day our unbeaten run goes on and I would rather we put in a performance like that in today rather than the semi final. Hope we absolutely thrash them in the semis!!

    We had a 20min spell in the 1st half were we ran the game the rest of the game we gave the ball to them and stood off them, the ref let them away with some crunching tackles how Waghorn was still on the park is beyond me the persistent fouling and the dive trying to win a penalty.

    Hate the fact that those * will be thinking they're our equal n there's no gap anymore! Delusional? Yes of course, but always wanna pump that lot and have them realise their position in the pecking order. * * of we didn't perform but meh still undefeated and still on course! Could've been worse.

    At the end of the day, a lot of Bhoys paid their hard-earned cash and went to Parkhead in anticipation of a performance. They never got one!

    Honestly see if in May we go on to win treble and might even still be unbeaten do you think anyone will be giving a * about the game today, played them 4 times, 3 wins and a draw and they are delighted with that, says it all really ,

    It's natural to have an off day but against this lot it was unacceptable.

    How the * the players were never up for this game is a joke, Rodgers is not to escape criticism today either some of choices have a hand to them getting back in it.

    Real lack of professionalism from the entire team today. They need to make sure they are at their best next time.

    Ref would have been as well wearing his rangers top the tacked on Roberts was horrendous, they got free kicks for * all aw day... the refereeing against us this season has been scandalous am not buying into the bull * them officials do there best and make mistakes.... we were * today dembele,sinclair and were both poor the pitch didn't do us any favours as well, manager needs to change his formation for the final they know how we play

    And if it is a choice between a draw in the league (when the league is all but in the bag already) and a result going against us in the next Glasgow derby (in the Cup Semi), then perhaps good that BR can shake any complacency out of the team ahead of that match. Obviously any time we play Sevco it matters, but to make sure to learn from the lessons, and ensure the Hoops perform in a match that can put us 90 min away from securing a treble, then today will be worth it.

    Your right mate,If that's the case Inverness could say they were our level after they got a draw against even though their 57 points behind us, we Drew twice with Manchester City but am not kidding myself on we are at their level
