OVERALL – 8/10 – There was maybe a perception among some that Celtic would ease into the end of season, but that’s certainly been dissociated with a series of final league matches where the Bhoys have ramped up the levels best they could despite motivation being blunted due to their own previous excellence. Games like this give an insight – just how consistent is the Celtic ideology through the squad? Has it, through intense coaching and dedication, become an instinctive application for every player called to action? On the evidence available… Yip. Terrific cohesive and faultless segue way between regulars and interlopers brought out the best and we romped it with delightful viewing. At Winterfell tonight, the notions The Sheep had of giving us something to think about for the Cup Final were reconstituted at a molecular level by the devastation the makeshift Celts wrought upon them. They did give us something to think about indeed, though – about how many we’ll take off them at Hampden.

The Celtic support.
