    Dunno if Ideguchi will be back. As it is McCarthy comes in and needs to make his experience show.

    Furious when it happened but in hindsight, took one for the team... I mean Taylor, the *.

    Think he's out for a couple month mate..

    The drop from McGregor to Bitton and now McCarthy is big. It's a worry for me now if it is him..

    That's a great shout! Never even thought of that, it's an absolute no brainer.

    I’m actually not as worried but I like McCarthy. Problem is Hatate and O’Riley’s legs will fade. Soro will need to come into it for somebody 60 odd minutes in for me.

    He was having a decent game and if the ref had done his job properly then he would’ve blown for a foul on Taylor and Bitton would’ve stayed on.

    I don't mind Soro coming on. As long as one of the other two drop back in to the 6..

    That’s the fear for me, don’t think that’ll happen.

    Hung out to dry by Ralston and Taylor, yes Taylor was fouled but dithering on the ball too long led to him losing it, as Petrov said, Bitton took one for the team with the first and the second yellow, yes Starfelt had the second one covered but in a split moment decision Bitton couldn't take that risk, he was having another great game.

    Bitton will be a huge absence from the team on Wednesday, I have zero confidence in McCarthy and would much rather see Soro start in the 6 role but it's just not gonna happen because it's pretty obvious Ange doesn't have him ahead of McCarthy

    I didn't see the first booking so couldn't comment on that. Second he was left with absolutely no choice, so some of the abuse is harsh.

    Was a foul on Taylor but he played himself into trouble and has to accept responsibilty for that.

    Too harsh mate. He's a good player and played well today.

    As a celtic player it's easy to get sent off at ibrox so I wouldn't hold that against him.

    Not harsh at all, easy sent off at the midden, he was completely at fault for getting sent off there for * sake.

    Not only that game but in Europe as well.

    Deffo short memory you have.

    The * is a liability.

    He's been one of our better players this season and yes, he does have the occasional lapse however, today he took one for the team. Also, if we were to "chase players out of the club" who were sent off against the huns, then we would have struggled to field a full team every week
