    This Saturday sees  Celtic return to domestic action after the rigmaroles of international football.  The Champions host Hearts at Celtic Park on Saturday afternoon and it’s our very first traditional Saturday afternoon 3.pm kick off since the start of the season.

    Four wins out of four, five if you count the league cup win against Hibs. 15 goals scored and only 1 conceded. That’s down to the fantastic efforts of the players who have all been at the top of their game.

    So why interrupt that rhythm? Injuries permitting it should be the same side that takes the field against the Jambos.

    Arne Engels, Auston Trusty, Alex Valle, and Luke McCowan are all quality additions, but they should be made to bide their time as the players in front of them have been superb and have more than earned their place.

    Just an Ordinary Bhoy
