SKY SPORTS got a lot of credit for the way they handled the opening Celtic game of the season with great analysis and story telling from Martin O’Neill and John Hartson.
It was a breath of fresh air for what we’ve been served up in the past. However, the honeymoon is over!
Just as we thought Sky would show some good sense and keep a certain pundit away from Celtic matches – Ian Crocker let the cat out of the bag and revealed Kris Boyd will be joining the two man pundit team on Sunday.
Next stop Rugby Park then. Kilmarnock v Celtic live on Sky Sports Football from 3.30pm Sunday with Kris Boyd and @JohnHartson10 joining @EilidhBarbour ⚽️

We HOPE this is just because Boyd is a former Kilmarnock player and he isn’t going to darken the doors of many Celtic games this season.
He’s a pundit with an agenda, there’s no doubt about it. It’s particularly impressive to not give a team who have won the last 11 trophies in a row much credit – but he manages to on a regular basis. Safe to say, we’ll not be tuning in for the pre and post match thoughts.
