Ricky's report of the Rangers game is now available.

Speaking after the match, Eric Black admitted to a tactical mistake yesterday by moving Eric Deloumeaux to the flank to try and counter the pace of Peter Lovenkrands:
"We decided we couldn't go with three at the back so we put him out there. But Lovenkrands is a fabulous athlete, exceptionally impressive.  It became very difficult once he was off but credit to the players, at least they dug in. They kept working exceptionally hard.  The game was null and void once he was off - it was goodnight at that point - but we didn't buckle."

Eric resisted the temptation to play David Ferrere from the start following his debut hat-trick, saying:
"I thought he did really well when he came on.  I thought he looked the part. He looked comfortable on the ball and was always looking to get forward and take gambles from midfield."

Time for a new Fans' Poll....
