    Ralston has a good footballing career ahead of him, just not at Celtic. Burke worst player on the park followed by Sinclair and Toljan, definitely not the worst- although his performance shows that he needs regular game time in the spfl at a lower level team rather than sporadic appearances once every 4 months

    My * *. At least Ralston attempted to take his man on and make things happen

    Tierney done more than Tolijan today.

    He really was * today; but he's a young boy just back from injury who hasn't played for ages.

    Thing is that is about his level, he is nowhere near the level we require.

    Could see today why Ralston never got a start at Ibrox he was slow to get back and had too many stray passes in which he was not alone there was a few guilty today

    He's one of those defenders who are decent going forward, but forget their actual role.

    I don't know, mate. He's never going to be really good (I think we can all see that); but if he works hard, he might be OK.

    I mean, I know generally speaking OK isn't good enough for Celtic; but on our budget and depending on which part of the cycle we are in for any given position and players getting older, we're always going to have one or two "OK" players at any given time.

    At any rate, we need to look for better, I know.

    He wasn’t even good enough for Dundee Utd mate, he is a Celtic fan with a strip on. There are other SPFL players better than him, which is depressing in itself.

    He has the build of a CB for me. Don't know if it's too late for him to be converted.

    Won't be for us though, sadly

    Had looked good when he played earlier this season but didn't look near good enough today. Jury still out for me.

    Better for both parties if he moves on at the end of the season.

    As I say, mate: if he were two or three years older, I'd agree 100%. As it is, you are probably still right; but there is something about his attitude that makes me not want to write him off just yet.

    First game back and it showed. Wouldn't be writing him off just yet though. Showed previously what he could do when he got a run of games under his belt, was one of our better performers at the time.

    I can't help but like the Bhoy, and think it's a bit * that he only gets the odd game here and there to show how good he can be.

    There's no level of consistency there in terms of appearance, which means there is no platform for him to improve - which admittedly he still needs.
