CELTIC are still in the midst of a major rebuild – something that’s had to be done due to our custodians being asleep at the wheel for a very long time.

While Celtic look to keep in touch at the top of the table, they’re not getting any closer to their Glasgow rivals at the moment.

After a day when the hoops won all three points at Aberdeen, it wasn’t until an SPFL official sent off a Hibernian player at Ibrox before they came into the game.

The decision to send off Ryan Porteous in the first half of the top of the table clash has major implications for Celtic and as one pundit points out, it was a shocking decision.

Am absolutely disgraceful decision from Nick Walsh get in the bin honestly. Wins the ball cleanly. Shocking.

The Ibrox luck truly optimise the saying ‘if you can’t be good, be lucky’ and they seem to get little nudge in the right direction when things are going wrong.

Celtic not only have to play above themselves but they also must find a way to catch their rivals – not easy to do after days like today.
