James Forrest is the gift that keeps on giving for Celtic after he added yet another trophy to his incredible haul at Parkhead by winning the Scottish Premiership at Rugby Park yesterday. The 32-year-old is now Celtic’s joint-second most decorated player behind only Bobby Lennox, which is an unbelievable achievement in the modern footballing era. Despite being on the fringes for much of the campaign, Forrest has come in clutch in the latter stage of the season and now has seven goals and two assists from 27 appearances, with four strikes in his last five. Back in March, Brendan Rodgers labelle...

Celtic wrapped up the Scottish Premiership title in emphatic fashion last night by thumping Kilmarnock 5-0 at Rugby Park. Adam Idah, Daizen Maeda, and James Forrest sent the Bhoys on their way to a thumping victory in the first half before Matt O’Riley’s brace set up an evening of joyous celebrations for everyone involved. Brendan Rodgers’ men haven’t had it all their own way this term; however, they have proved why Celtic deserve to be champions. Regardless, if it wasn’t for the arrival of the first goalscorer in January, their achievement may not have been possible. Republic of Ireland inter...

Celtic have won the Scottish Premiership title once again following a brilliant 5-0 victory at Kilmarnock to secure number 54. Once the dust settles at the end of the season, there will be time to reflect on what has to go down as a momentous achievement from Brendan Rodgers and his players. They have had to fend off a prolonged challenge from Rangers, external pressure, and doubts over their collective capability from certain circles. Last night, Celtic left everyone in no doubt that they are the best team in the country by a distance as they thrashed Kilmarnock 5-0, cutting open one of the S...

Celtic travel to Kilmarnock tonight needing just a point to be crowned Scottish Premiership champions for a third successive campaign. Brendan Rodgers has had to navigate highs, lows and everything in between since arriving at Parkhead for a second time last summer; however, this occasion could be the defining moment of his first year back in charge. Kilmarnock have defeated Celtic twice this season, with one victory apiece coming in the Scottish Premiership and Scottish League Cup. The two sides shared a draw at Parkhead back in February; meanwhile, the Bhoys’ solitary win over Derek McInnes ...

Celtic are now on the brink of winning the Scottish Premiership after coming out 2-1 victors against Rangers yesterday afternoon. Matt O’Riley was the star of the show for the Bhoys, opening the scoring on 35 minutes to finish off a sweeping move from the hosts to leave Jack Butland with no chance. John Lundstram had an afternoon to forget from his perspective and put Celtic two in front after some excellent approach play from Daizen Maeda before Cyriel Dessers halved the deficit for the visitors ahead of the interval. Entering stoppage time, former Sheffield United midfielder Lundstram was th...

The big derby day is nearly upon us. Celtic face off against Rangers on Saturday knowing a victory will put them on the brink of a third successive Scottish Premiership title. The Bhoys currently sit three points ahead of the second-placed side with just three games remaining. That context makes this one of the most important derbies in recent memory and, understandably, Celtic are favourites to come out on top. Brendan Rodgers’ side haven’t been beaten by Rangers this season, winning home and away in the early part of the season before drawing at Ibrox last month. Celtic look strong and confi...

Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers could have his work cut out this summer as he looks to trim excess fat from his squad at Parkhead. On numerous occasions this term, the Irishman has cited a desire to cut down numbers in the group, and claimed that his ideal squad size would sit at the 25-man mark, with three goalkeepers to supplement the outfield 22. Intriguingly, Rodgers has also signalled that bit-part fringe players could become a thing of the past at Celtic as he looks to build the foundation for youth products to jump from the academy to receive senior opportunities at the reigning Scottish Pr...

The debate on whether or not Celtic should buy Adam Idah after his loan spell ends this summer has been a hot topic amongst the Hoops fans and pundits. Idah has been in superb goalscoring form for Celtic and no one can deny that his goals since joining on loan this year have kept us in a title race. Tucking away two last-minute penalties against Hibs on his debut immediately endeared Idah to the Celtic support and vital goals against Motherwell and Rangers have further bolstered the Hoops fans love for the striker. John Hartson has recently told Celtic that they should splash the cash this sum...

Celtic face Heart of Midlothian this weekend in the second round of their five post-split fixtures during the Scottish Premiership run-in. As things stand, the Bhoys hold a three-point lead over Rangers with just four league matches left to play, courtesy of a James Forrest double on Tayside last Sunday away to a stubborn Dundee outfit. Despite excitement hitting fever pitch ahead of our battle with the Jambos, some Celtic fans may also feel a slight bit of trepidation due to title race nerves and the fact Hearts have actually beaten us twice in three attempts this term. Nevertheless, Brendan ...

Celtic had to show resilience to get over the line against Dundee yesterday at Dens Park to reclaim a three-point advantage at the Scottish Premiership summit. The Bhoys didn’t produce their best performance on Tayside; however, James Forrest emerged as the hero, scoring two pivotal goals in a match otherwise bereft of quality on a dry surface. When Celtic looked to have put the game beyond doubt, Antonio Portales fortuitously struck for the hosts to pull one back, as his volley from a corner was sliced past Joe Hart by the unfortunate Adam Idah. After proceedings concluded, Brendan Rodgers ad...
