Killer score.
Despite some immense defence from us, ultimately they've taken their chances, we haven't.

Four penalties conceded in half an hour.
Just not going to cut it when they are under far more pressure against tier one sides

Don't have footage but John Hunt, reading out statement on Sky Racing, about unspeakably sad loss of apprentice jockey Tommie Jakes, at the tender age of 19, is so very moving.😭😭😭
To get through that after everything John has been through. An absolute diamond of a human being.
Something in my eye

Nigel Farage's ten minute bill, to leave ECHR, which was voted out of town, would have removed these right and protections.
He's off his trolley. Power mad like his buddy Trump.

Well I was far from impressed by his comments after yesterday's defeat, but really didn't see him leaving!
When I said Deal with it, following two defeats in a row, I thought he would!

Brendan Rodgers criticizing Hearts for playing second ball football and bullying Celtic. 🤷♂️
Amazing waffle.
Hearts imposed their game and Celtic couldn't cope, simple as.
Brendan is so used to winning, he doesn't appear to have a coherent plan when boot is on the other foot.
Deal with it! #HEACEL

Was contemplating a rare early night if the Toulouse game became very one sided.
Which it did.
But by the end I just wanted to watch hours more of the liquid rugby they play.
Wonderful entertainment.

A yellow for Nonu. He's lined the player up and smashed him with clear line of sight, seconds after a dubious first one.
If that's not a straight red I really don't know what is.
