Their fans came prepared with a pre-meditated plan to cause unrest. This was condoned by their Club by the fact they did nothing to prevent it. Our fans came to enjoy a football match. Granted our fans should not have vandalised anything. However, a heady mix of anger, frustration, alcohol, and witnessing the authorities doing nothing to stop their vile display, meant our frustration spilled over. Thank goodness it was only the lavvies which were attacked, and not celtic supporters imo

Try from 27 minutes lads 'n' lasses.

After calmly reflecting on the game, we probably played better than we should have. The lack of game play over the past few weeks definitely paid a huge part in our defeat, especially as Hibs had played several "cup finals" in the same period. Like Warbs said, we'll only know which would be the best preparation for yesterday. after the game itself. Right from the start we had several unforced errors and bad passes...and god only knows what we were thinking at their first goal! They went on to have many more chances than us and it was credit to all that their win wasn't more convincing. In this case, match fitness definitely won over technical fitness. I believe we lost just due to "circumstances" having finished our games earlier than them. However, if the game had gone to extra time, the result might have been different.

Tbf I don't think the Club itself. Hibs. had much to do with the matter, apart from ticket sales. I was quite surprised at the size of their support, and wonder how many celtic fans may have been in amongst them. That will come out after arrests are made I suppose. I think Prize Money will be withheld in order to make reparation to the cost of repairing Hampden, however, the fans who were there supporting Hibs were the actual problem so they must be banned for a considerable time, home AND away. As for Petrie to attempt to brush it all off as "exuberance"!!!...he should be hauled up, sober, to explain why he publicly failed to condemn the rioters. Let him come face to face with our players and officials who were assaulted and let them "exuberantly" assault him. That's how stupid his remarks were. Gladly we are now in a different league from them so a rematch is unlikely for a while. and apart from the Killie game later, It's also the end of the season. Anyone taking bets on a pitch invasion this afternoon?

Is this for the role we tried to line Eustace up for last year perhaps?

It should also be noted that hibs may be losing one of their best players. If they don't gain promotion big heads will roll. Karma has a habit of doing this kinda thing.

Apart from now knowing our Chairman has "never heard of Mark Wottke", that was a big fat waste of time.

Truly astonishing reports published in the Scottish "Media" despite everyone watching exactly what happened. If there has ever been any doubt in anyones' minds as to the anti Rangers bias then this this must be the clincher. Within seconds of the game, the press were all over it. Not about Motherwell staying up, not about us failing to win promotion, not about McCulloch being prodded by a Motherwell "fan" with a stick, not about Motherwell "fans" invading the pitch, not about Motherwell's inability to steward their own "fans", not about these failures almost culminating in what could have developed in to extreme violence, BUT accusing Mohsni of challenging his attacker again in the car park after the game, then once they had drawn breath, went on to accuse the Rangers' player of extreme "shameful" violence, when it was he who was the victim after being shoved in the back in a cowardly attack, and when he tried to defend himself, further attacked by several other Motherwell players. I hope Mohsni gets legal counsel immediately and takes every one of those libellous rags down, after all who would want to sign such an "animal"! The evidence is there for all to see.

If McMurdo continues along this road he will disappear up his own arsehole, so.........fingers crossed.

I guess they're treating our new board as Guilty until proved Innocent. Forever strife.

Were they taken away in the Rentokill van which had been parked outside?

Surely they've all failed Duty of Care responsibilities as prescribed by Law! http://www.iod.com/guidance/briefings/cgbis-directors-duties-and-responsibilities

Should Llambias not be sacked because of the lies which were given to the Stockmarket?
