STRACHAN OFF TO A FLYER (once again, NOT)

It has been almost nine years since Kilmarnock picked up a league point at Celtic Park.

Today they got a 0-0 draw as Celtic unfurled the league flag as Champions, infront of what appeared like almost 10,000 empty seats in the stadium.

Gordon Strachan has won last 2 SPL league titles, but 2007/08 has seen him being challenged and Strachan appears to have been 'found out' now.

Still close at the top so an exciting SPL finish.

Celtic's defence is the concern. Full backs poor at times, and central defenders kinda slow motion cloggers.

Still, Celtic have TWO home games vs Rangers still this season, and win those and league title will be their's.

Celtic are world record breakers now - that is FOUR old firm games in a row they have failed to even score! Worst run in their 120 year history.

Strachan left top scorer McDonald on the subs bench for 80 minutes yesterday.

As for the slow-motion Celtic defence - well, that would need a whole new thread to itself. How Caldwell and McManus keep getting picked every week defies belief from Strachan.
