CELTIC SEW IT UP

After the relegation of Rangers to the third division of Scottish football recently, Celtic have been the overwhelming favourites to win the league title. They currently lead the table by a massive 19 points that only appears to confirm this notion.

As a result, the club’s main challenge has been to do well in the Champions League and also the Scottish cup. However, this campaign Celtic appear to have failed in both aspects. They have been knocked out of the Champions League at the group stages itself, while they suffered an early exit in the Scottish cup.

CELTIC COME CLOSE

Celtic came extremely close to getting a famous win at the San Siro in the Champions league when they took on a similar in the group stages. The Scottish club had several opportunities to win the match, but they failed to take be opportunities.

In the end, they were punished by two goals from Milan in the last 10 minutes. There is a feeling that Celtic would have taken a victory from the match had they possessed a striker of Champions league quality. Instead, Celtic only had Anthony Stokes up front who was making his first appearance in this competition.

PLAYERS WANTED
