‘We don’t want to speak about the DT,’ Celtic star

JAMES FORREST ON THE JOB NEIL LENNON IS DOING AT HIBS

“Neil has done really well for Hibs this year. Obviously, no team wants us to go to their ground and win the league.

“Hibs will be focusing on trying to get a victory for themselves and also to stop us winning it.

“They managed a 2-2 draw at Celtic Park earlier in the season and another 2-2 result at Easter Road, so they have given us some hard games this season.

“Hibs have some really good players and it’s going to be tough, but it’s one we are looking forward to. Every time a team plays Celtic, they are always fired up.

“We know that it is not a given going to their place, but the confidence is high within the group going on from the semi-final on Sunday – and with the fans always providing a good away support at Easter Road – we are all delighted to have the chance to do it for ourselves.

“With five games to go, you would have to say Hibs can finish second if they put together a wee run.”

DON’T SPEAK ABOUT THE DT…

“Obviously, we don’t want to speak about the double treble, but now we have the Scottish Cup Final against Motherwell next month to look forward to.

“There are five big league games to go and we want to take good performances into that Final.

“Last season was unbelievable and, if we could do it again, it would be incredible.

“The final wee push is coming now with six games and we’ll make sure we are at it in every one to try and achieve our aims.”

Watch this! “My name is John Clark, I am the proud kit-man for Celtic”
