5-1 that's more like it bhoys.

What a treat today as I caught up with an old friend today, free-flowing free-scoring Celtic rattling five past Kilmarnock.

Paul Caddis was the only debutant with our other recent signings cup-tied or watching from the sidelines.

It was Caddis that set up the first goal for Scott McDonald with Gary Caldwell heading the second early in the second half.

After that the bhoys moved up a gear, passing and moving well with Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink, Scott McDonald and Giorgios Samaras getting on the scoresheet.

Celtic's Scott McDonald Australia Day video tribute


Only a week after Australia Day it's overdue to pay tribute to Scott McDonald.


With 19 goals to his name so far, including priceless strikes against Spartak Moscow and AC Milan the former Motherwell striker has more than repaid his £600,000 transfer fee.


Indeed, it would be scary to think where we would be this season without his goals as last Sunday at Falkirk again demonstrated.


But rather than ramble on for ages CLICK HERE to view this brilliant VIDEO put together in Perth WA in tribute to Scott

John Fallon looks back at the transfer window

After the frenzy of activity, at some clubs anyway, over the last few days the transfer window has closed.

Five new signings are in place at Celtic Park with Barry Robson and Ben Hutchinson joining up with Andreas Hinkel, Koki Mizuno and loan Celt Georgios Samaras.

GAME OFF Farce

Tonight's game at Motherwell was called off at 6.55, 50 minutes before kick-off.

There was no significant deterioration in the weather between the 3pm pitch inspection and the decision to call the game off.

Why wasn't the game called off at 3.00pm?

What time did the referee arrive at the ground at?

What suddenly changed at 6.55pm to call the game off?

I don't think that the pitch was ever playable but as usual 'these things happen'

The same thing will happen next year and no doubt years to come.
