It is the biggest puzzle I ever saw with all the injuries and players out. I need to say one thing more, John Souttar will also not be available with a muscle problem.
Getting six players out and bringing in two or three first team contenders is the task facing Lawwell for January, that work should be well underway.
Goldson has benefited more than most from Beaton’s interpretation of the Laws of the Game, however he uses his arms and hands to control the ball there will be an explanation ‘leaked’ to Sportscene and other media messengers.
Unfortunately Souness identified the wrong man for the task, worse that that he whispered the name Frank Lampard to Jim White then went on TalkSPORT to explain why the former Everton and Chelsea boss was superior to Philippe Clement.
John Lundstram is not interested in the ball, all he is doing is looking at our player, and he blocks him, and it gets given as VAR as a penalty.
Keevins apparently has a three point plan to remove the Green Brigade but anyone trying to read through his column will struggle to take anything from it other than an angry old man completely out of touch.
It is not a challenge. It’s a game. It is not under-10s where you have got to play everyone every week. We bring the players in to compete and fight for the shirt.
So, either Celtic are very, very unlucky to be drawn away or someone is making tricks behind the scenes. Seven years on the spin this club has been drawn away at that time of the season.
Trying to spin the ‘action’ from Prague into a classic night of entertainment is quite a stretch but he did drop in one truth-bomb about Cyriel Dessers.
He returned to action, sharing striking duties with Tony Watt and managing to get a couple of appearances at a time when Gary Hooper and Tony Stokes were the first picks with others like Georgios Samaras, Miku and Lassad Nouioui around competing for places.
