Rangers really need to be more clincal, they  dominate play and possession and create but if they don't get ahead by a few and the game becomes a battle they struggle, defence still mistake ridden as well.

I thought maybe they had turned that corner.

Your spot on, they have absolutely dominated this game basically camped in Hibs half but somehow look fragile at the back. 

[DS98]

If we had VAR up here Hibs would be about 2nd bottom.

Scotch Airfield with miss of the season

He is drunk though, tbf.

[JennytheJambo]

I have watched some if the games but there is one team that have rode their luck and certainly having a rub of the green is Hibs, 3 games so far I could mention that they would have dropped points. 

[Absolute Scenes]

The most frustrating thing about this is Hibs will be pumping themselves into oblivion that they’ve managed a draw here. Even if they sneak a win they have jammed their way to several points this season due to poor officials. They are absolute huddy and rangers need to hold their heads in shame for not punishing this utter crap on display. 

[Салатные палочки]

I still don't get the need to announce a MOTM to an empty stadium . Who really gives a shite? 

[neilnunb]

Boyle Hibs MotM 🤣

 

Aye, crossed for the equaliser even though he was offside, but otherwise anonymous.

 

Their keeper has kept them in this.

If this Rangers attempt to halt the tramps 10. Blew it. 

Vermin play dirty though, push for a goal.

Should of gave away a few penalties as well.

Shite game.

[John Findlay]

Marciano and Paul McGinn have been Hibs two best players today.

[neilnunb]

Poor from Rangers. 4 points dropped now to absolutely woeful sides.

[Gordon Ramsay]

Hibs luck seems to show no signs of running out. Another awful performance yet they come away with a point. 

[Bazzas right boot]

Hibs are shite and rangers are still not catching celtic this season.

 

Nothing changes.

 

 

[Mikey1874]

Too early in season but it's clear the improvement needed from Rangers to challenge for title. 

 

Hibs? Bottom 6.

The funny thing being, if Hearts put in that performance we would be cynical cloggers, a typical Hearts team. 

 

No doubt this will go down as some tactical masterclass. They had to put their usual free-flowing attractive football to the side for a day to combat big, bad Rangers.

The offside decision that wasn't given in the build up to the 2nd goal - pathetic stuff. Hubz getting plenty of luck so far. 

[DS98]

Real sad thing about this is that I think Celtic will cruise to a 10th title. Don’t know what it is about Gerrard’s Rangers. No matter how on top they struggle to put teams away. 
 

Hibs? Well we’ve been waiting for their luck to run out. An unbelievable amount of dodgy decisions have went their way this season. Let’s hope that stops before the semi.

Just goes to show that Boyle is all they have. Literally the only way they play. Mark him out of the game and we will beat this mob easily. Both goals have come from allowing Boyle too much space and time on the ball. 

Far too confident based on absolute little.  They’ve just drawn with the best team in Scotland.

Totally.

 

Hibs did work hard. But got the breaks.

I doubt we would care what anyone said if we drew 2-2 to keep us third in the Premiership.  I wouldn’t even mind Levein ball. 

[Jamhammer]

On the plus side, prior to the semi final they will have absolutely convinced themselves that they’re world beaters.

 

 

And we ALL know how that ends 😀

[Stendelsarmy]

Vermin scoring an offside goal and finishing the match with more men than they should. Who'd have thunk it

Not at all. There just seems to be a different narrative when Hibs are involved as a lot of people have bought into their footballing myth. 

 

However, and I say this through gritted teeth, they seem to have found a bit of grit. 

[Mikey1874]

Stevenson for Doig changed that game.

 

Something for Jack Ross to consider though seems to back that to change system after 60 minutes. Something for Hearts to counter in semi.

Not seen anything from Doig to suggest he's a decent player – despite all the media over him.

If WE drew 2-2, at home to keep us 3rd in the premiership There’d be folk queuing up on here to have a pop at the manager for not having the bells to win. That’s a fact!

I think they have a better side than Celtic player for player. Not that it really matters in the grand scheme of things though.

 Ok no problem, thanks for explanation. I was just going on stats and stats alone. I haven't watched any games so far so l wouldn't know either way.

Ah yes well Hearts are the Third best team in the land on stats right enough.

They got a goal after he came on, the pattern of the game was still the same one way traffic. Rangers gave away a silly goal Hibs held on. Maybe just me but I can’t see the tactical master stroke.

And we beat both of them twice last season. I will not lower myself to give them credit as none exists. Their second goal was offside and far too often have they won points due to poor officiating this season. They are where they are because of poor decisions by officials.

There’s not giving any of the credit and there’s being totally deluded saying every team is utter shit and we will hammer anyone if we do this and that as we sit in the Championship signing randoms that are being bigged up again based on very little.

According to the table, Rangers have already caught them.  Celtic not looking too hot either at the moment.

Got to agree. I tuned in expecting Hibs to get humped. By hook or by crook they got a result without deserving it. That makes it a shite game for me. 
 

But I’m immature and hate Hibs.

[JamboAndrew]

Couldn't bring myself to want either to win. And as it's tough for both to lose, I'll take that.
