    There was actually a good atmosphere today as well loudest its been in month maybe all season, but it faded after the poor 2nd half and then going into the last 15 with only a goal lead and that part where the they turned into a shambles, rushing passes about the back, McGregor kicking it in the air O'Riley booting the ball up the middle of the park to nocunt all with ages to go as well.

    They set the tone of a collapse with about 15 minutes to go :56:

    All the players really had to do today was go 2-0 up or see out the game and fans would be behind them.

    But that ending, theres probably hundreds if not thousands who won't go back to another game this season.

    He needs to go. Was 8 points ahead of a Hun side that was rebuilding sacked the manager and brought in a new one and * it. We were pathetic and his football is *. Doesn't matter if you beat the Huns if you * up elsewhere.

    Not collectively throw the towel in, pretty simple.

    It’s a Title fight, it was a Title fight months ago. Little has changed.

    I used to.

    He's done nothing to suggest he will this season.

    Even beating them twice, we're now going to be behind them tomorrow.

    He can't keep that form up against them either. The law of averages suggest we'll lose at least one of the next two games against them. Our form suggests we'll drop more points the the huns before we meet them in April.

    We’re top due to having played a game more.

    By this time tomorrow, we’ll have thrown away a * knows how many points lead, and that’s having beaten the huns twice already.

    It’s not being a shitebag bottler, it’s just not being entirely * delusional.

    This is pretty much it. We still have 12 games to play and it is a title race. Momentum is against us, we've been playing poorly and his tactics have hardly been inspiring confidence that he can turn it around.

    But, there is a LOT of football to be played, there are still derbies to be played - and Rodgers does have an exceptional record in those games - and if he can turn it around and get us over the line from here, that will be the true mark of him as a manager.

    In 2007/08 we were 4 points behind R****** with 10 games to play - and we went on that run to the end of the season, winning both derbies (the Naka screamer & the JVOH goal in the 2-1 win, followed by Skippy's double in the 3-2 win) to lift the SPL and complete WGS' 3IAR.

    If Rodgers can do something similiar, that'd be probably make this one more memorable than his 2nd treble season was, but BR really has not done himself any favours and while there is blame to go around at the executive level also, he has to be - and deservedly should be - held accountable for justy how much the team has regressed this season.

    Eh I don't want Rodgers to stay in the slighest, but saying any sort of 6-0 win is a fluke is silly, and the Rangers games they played at a slower pace because we wouldn't let them play at their normal.

    It's why it's infuriating that we can't keep this pace up outside games against the vermin.

    The support has been up for it. No-one else at the club has.

    You can't use this point whilst forgetting his record against McInnes this season. 0 and 3.

    'Go out there and play like you've never played football before' is the impression that I have.

    I've been reluctant to go in on Rodgers but we are mid February now and not seeing any suggestion this side has the fight to see it through. Time will tell of course but I think that's why people are showing frustrations.

    If we'd won that game 2-1 with a last minute goal today having peppered their goal the entire game I'd agree with you. That's what title winning celtic sides do even when playing poorly. This side at the moment doesn't have that in them.

    I'm not seeing it. We have a harder run of games to come too and will have to go to Rugby Park again after the split which bodes well.
