    1 shot on goal. I don't care if we're playing prime Brazil or Barcelona. That is unacceptable at any level.

    We'll recruit a couple of projects from the Korean second tier or something. Don't worry!

    The captain here and now needs to start turning up as well. Been honking for weeks.

    No it doesn’t. It puts us miles away from Europa League football.

    A different board or manager wouldn't change much tonight.

    The playing field is not level between us and Atletico, same as it's not level between us and Ross County. The team with the most financial muscles wins 9 out of 10 times, it's as simple as that.

    We move on, with the pockets full of cash.

    I'm not comparing to last season. I'm saying I think we'd have improved this season under Ange. We were unlucky last season. Unlucky again this season actually.

    We'll never know I suppose.

    Im the biggest pessimist on here but

    This group gas given us another chance
    This result changes nothing
    Indeed the result for Lazio means we are actually in a better position

    We had to beat Lazio away and still do only thing is now providing Athletico do the expected business.. we have everything to play for…

    Beat Lazio away - we did it under Lennon - i was there & seen it with my own eyes and then its a one off game against Feyenoord at home for Europa League

    Of course Lazio will hump us not because they are good but because we are * … just saying

    And to think we all thought the board might actually invest after bringing Brendan back.

    The fact anyone has watched us this season and genuinely feels any hope of getting anywhere near 3rd is admirable

    As said, it doesn't make a huge difference. We'd need to win both games, realistically, in any case

    It’s been the same for years, the last time we played well in Europe was the 13/14 season, nothing really shocks me anymore, our board seem to like it this way, until we get them out it will never change.

    Do you really not understand what my point is? A small club with a far smaller budget than ourselves managed to beat Atletico a few days ago. We were battered by them. Yes, the red made a difference, no doubt. But do you honestly believe even if we had 11 men for the whole game we would have beaten Atletico tonight? You could probably count the Tims who believe that on the fingers of one hand.

    100% sending off. Put it this way, if it was a hun on one of our players, what’s your view then?

    Because, I said from when the draw was made that we were getting nothing in Madrid... and that was with 11. With 10, it was always going to be a doing. It's not the key game. The key game was the Lazio one. I also think we've been quite unlucky in this campaign. Still two games to go. Who knows? Lazio are definite favourites in Rome; but it's not a foregone conclusion like this was.

    Our ambition is giving long term contracts to dross like McCarthy and Mikey Johnston.

    The replacements just aren't good enough for Palma, Maeda and Abada right now. Yang is promising, but asking a lot.

    CalMac looked tired, and it was also asking a lot of Iwata to try and stop wave after wave of attacks.

    I was 100% including McGregor.

    Hart too, who in previous seasons has demanded more of players, but didn't tonight. Expected it to be CCV but nope. Nada.

    Another disastrous night in Europe. I hate that we have settled for this. Happy to make money from projects and qualify for Europe every year and then head for embarrassment. No ambition!

    Maybe a good thing. Saves any more disappointment.
