    Said it before 3 at the back doesn't work for us. Limits us down the flanks and forces us to play it through the middle, which is usually where the opposition has loaded 2 banks of 5.

    4-2-3-1 from now on please.

    You could almost guarantee Leigh Griffiths would have scored in a game like this today.

    Very frustrating game, up front was terrible and fair play to their keeper, prob man of the match for me. Burkes miss at the end looked a shocker. I like him but his touch and shooting must improve. Hope Leigh's back soon.

    I agree mate, don’t think we will lose the league now but if we play like that in our remaining 5 games, truth is we will struggle to win any of them

    Starting Simunovic again was pitiful..

    Needed pace down the flanks where they sat deep with their back 3. Toljan and Forrest and KT and Weah in hindsight to stretch and drag them out..

    Broony looked tired again and shouldn't have played..

    Christie was poor. Amount of set pieces he played miles over anyone was something else..

    I don’t think we won’t win the title but what I mean is by next time we play we will likely be 8 points clear with a game in hand players look * emotionally and physically

    Yeah know what you mean, making it very hard for ourselves, as someone said earlier though, really can’t see that mob going on in a run, nit won more than 3 games in a row since they came to spl

    But as someone else pointed out, playing a team who came up via play offs last season, Parkin bus or not, for the double treble going for 8 in a row and a treble treble team not to convert 1 chance and score 1 goal against them in120 minutes of football is * dire

    With the disparity in finances we should be hammering teams like Livingston at home.

    The problem is greater than Neil Lennon. The problem is Peter Lawwell's refusal to invest to kick on to the next level. It's already cost us a manager mid-season. It could yet cost us the treble treble.

    One to forget today Livi with everyone defending as if their lives depended on it and Celtic unable to find that bit of luck in front of goal every shot went to their keeper or was powder puff but still landed at their keeper not filling me with optimism for the treble

    Interesting that Lennon said after the game last week that he hasn't implemented any of his ideas on the team yet but that definitely wasn't the case today. Lots of crosses (some very good ones tbf) and no one anywhere near getting on the end of them. If Lennon gets the job I could see him selling Edouard as he just doesn't suit his style of play.

    We’ve been poor recently but to say ateam going for a treble treble 11 points clear if the Huns win tomorrow is woeful is way over the top

    Livingston tactics were dross today, * like that is what brings the game down in this country ultra defensive *. Carried out the tactics well enough, frustrated us and then got the luck to get the goalless draw they were playing for

    Would have liked to have seen Weah stretch them more and stay on the touchline when he came on, he done it once, and managed to send in a good ball for Edouard which he was unlucky not to score with. Broony was urging this at one point but he kept cutting inside and blocking this option off for some reason.

    Not really sure how relevant this is. We had a far worse away record and overall now have a better record than we did before.
