How? There is no damage done. We could have lost the league today.

The damage is the opportunity spurned to go two points ahead with a game in hand. At this stage of the season that would have been a mighty advantage.

 

All is not lost but it means avoiding defeat at Parkhead. Scraping a draw at home isn’t a good omen for getting one away against the same team.

unless someone can correct me on that.

I'm fairly certain O'Neill and Gerrard both went a full season without losing a derby match.

That's it when all is said and done.  Today was a missed opportunity that I suspect we'll regret because our record at the Piggery is dire and the players proved even Clement can't fix the mentality issue when we play that lot.

Aye I meant I don't think anyone has won the league without winning at least one of the first 3 meetings.
