CelticKilmarnock fans, we asked for your views following Sunday's heavy 5-1 defeat at home to Celtic. Defensively to give away a goal in two minutes, and the same in the second half, shows naivety, a lack of concentration and just plain lack of spirit. No matter what the set up was the defending was shambolic.
Callum Wright scores injury-time winner for visitorsMartin O’Neill absent from Rugby Park after operationDerek McInnes suffered a damaging home debut as Rangers manager with a 2-1 Premiership defeat to Hibernian compounded by striker Youssef Chermiti being carried off the pitch on a stretcher.David Gray’s side took the lead in the 12th minute with a Josh Campbell penalty after the video assistant referee (VAR) had flagged up that Vanja Dragojevic, making his first Rangers start after signing from Partizan Belgrade, had fouled Jason Kerr in the area.

Celtic manager Martin O'Neill will not be in the dugout for his side's Scottish Premiership match against Kilmarnock on Sunday following his midweek hospital stay. O'Neill is convalescing at home after undergoing "a small procedure" earlier this week and assistant Shaun Maloney will take charge of the Scottish champions at Rugby Park. The 74-year-old Northern Irishman is understood to be recovering well, but the match has come too early for him to attend.
The sponsorship deal between Cwmbran Celtic and the Welsh indie-rockers is a nostalgia trip rather than a cynical attempt to monetise ‘adjacent audiences’As someone born on the cusp of the gen X-millennial divide, I am the perfect target for today’s 90s nostalgia. I played my modest, teenage part in the Battle of Britpop (verbal skirmisher, Blur division); I fervently sang – and, God help me, believed – that Things Can Only Get Better. Super Furry Animals were a band I knew only distantly, via the transgressive thrill of that song they had with all the swearing in. And yet the news they’ll be shirt sponsor for a Welsh football club this season has managed to whisk me straight back to a time when things seemed simpler, kinder and more hopeful.Nearly three decades have passed since Super Furry Animals last had their logo on a football kit. Back in 1999, their frontman Gruff Rhys and bassist Guto Pryce, both Cardiff City fans, persuaded their Bangor-born bandmates to lay down their north Wales allegiances for the duration of the Bluebirds’ Welsh Cup run – which was, incidentally, all they could afford. The cup shirts cost them £2,000 and were, according to Rhys, knock-offs made for ice hockey. This year’s beneficiaries are a more modest outfit: Cwmbran Celtic, just relegated from Wales’s second tier. Cwmbran is the town where the band send their stage props for repair, and given the props in question are giant inflatable bears, you wonder whether they could get one installed in goal.
