Killen hat-trick sinks Killie

A first half hat-trick from Kiwi Chris Killen sunk Killie but that's overdoing the alliteration!

The reserves continued their recent impressive form with a 3-1 win over Kilmarnock from a side strong on first team experience.

Boba Balde and Mark Wilson played 90 minutes in defence whilst Japanese midfielder Koki Mizuno completed the game despite picking up a serious looking injury a fortnight ago against Gretna.

A hamstring injury to Ben Hutchinson put a dampener on the result however and it looks like the striker could be out of action for the remainder of the season.

More depressing times.

It's always dangerous to think that things can't get any worse, they can.

A season of hope has turned into a nightmare that now makes playing Celtic an attractive prospect to most SPL sides.

Motherwell became the first opponents to win at Celtic Park in the SPL on Saturday but after drawing with St Mirren, Kilmarnock, Hibs and Dundee United as well as losing in the cups to Hearts and Aberdeen it wasn't really too much of a shock.

The real shock and anger comes from the performance with few real leaders on the park willing to take responsibility showing that there are serious problems in the dressing room as shown by the actions and words of Scott McDonald and Derek Riordan over the weekend.
