The game is over and we all need to move on. One thing is for sure we have learnt a lot more today than we have in the last 8 games. Cool heads are now needed not to put too much pressure on the players and Neil Lennon.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" /><o:p></o:p>

For me we only have an outside chance of winning the league, but I don't want to just give it away. Rangers will have a bad patch and we have to be near them to capitalise (what happens if Miller or Weir get injured?), then we have a chance. Where there is a chance there is hope.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
We all knew we weren't the finished article (Europe told us this) but we are moving in the right direction. The defence needs work on and I believe that will happen. Up front we have new players that are coming good.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
I never thought at the start of the season that we would be level on points with Rangers going into the first old firm, as hard as it may seem we just need to move on and quickly.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Sit back and take the defeat as hard as it is, keep your heads and don't put undue pressure on the team and manager... we will move forward.<o:p></o:p>

There is a long way to go yes we lost and we were crap but we have to move on and get back to winning form.

I totally agree, we need to move on and hopefully learn from the experience. We competed well during the first 45 minutes, after the Rangers first goal too many players dropped their performance level, yes it was never a penalty, but by then Rangers were streets ahead of us.
I don't think the Hooper & Samaras combination worked, losing Maloney early didn't help and Stokes rash tackle kept him wary of his next tackle. Personally I would have started with Stokes and Hooper. -

Amen. I have to keep going back to the fact that Ranger's have been under Wallie's influence for how long? How many managers have we had in the last 4 years? We need to breathe, let Lenny do his work. There's been a lot of positives so far this season. They had their typical help from the man in black but we also got shell-shocked in the second half. Overcoming that will come with managerial stability and playing the same system for an extended period of time. -
