CELTIC maintained their nine-point lead at the top of the SPFL on Saturday by beating a ridiculously negative Aberdeen side.
The bhoys dominated the game with 80% possession and taking a whopping 33 shots at goal.
Despite that, as the last ten minutes rolled around, Superscoreboard veteran Hugh Kevins was talking up the chance of an Aberdeen winner AND how Celtic were being set up for a horrible day up north.[Superscoreboard]
Callum McGregor popped up within seconds of his latest prediction with the winner. It’s radio gold from Keevins, who doesn’t learn.

Hugh really does love a doom and gloom story. The journalist often lambasts fans for going over the top, but the journalist’s inclination for hyperbole on the air has transcended the decades.
It’s not the first time Hugh has predicted Celtic’s downfall this season, only for the bhoys to find the win. Ange Postecoglou’s men have a habit of popping up with a late goal. It’s not luck or by accident; the relentless nature of their game means they can almost always find a way through the most stubborn of defensive-minded teams.
It’s onto Livingston at Celtic Park next. The Lothian side is famed for their ridiculously negative tactics. The bhoys have home advantage and a real grass pitch working in their favour.
