QUOTE OF THE DAY

-

‘McGregor is a world-class goalie. He would not be out of place in teams of the great cities of Munich, Madrid and Barcelona’ the returning Allan McGregor in goals. Robert Livingston­e, Palm Beach, said: “It’s nice to see McGregor back in his rightful place – one of the best goalies of his generation. World class and certainly would not be out of place in teams of the great cities of Munich, Madrid and Barcelona.”

On to Celtic’s 3-0 home win over Hibs. Neil Lennon claimed it was as good a performanc­e as he’s seen from his side as manager but, predictabl­y, not everyone agreed.

Jimmy Miller, Glasgow, said: “I can’t get my head round this 10 out of 10 drivel.

“Hibs were rubbish and made Jeremie Frimpong look good, when he is at best an average player. As for Shane Duffy, Kris Ajer and Nir Bitton, they are slow and overrated and Albian Ajeti is a West Ham reject. I see nothing to fear. Roll on October 17.”

Lewis Doyle, Limerick, said: “The only reason for the good display from Celtic was due to the fact Hibs came out to play football which is a credit to them. If Hibs had just sat back the game would have been boring and Celtic’s lack of ability to open up teams would again been exposed. We will see what happens against St Johnstone.”

Andy Halliday has found a new team – but one caller was quick to remind the former Rangers midfielder he’d gone back on his word after signing for Hearts.

Stephen Mulhern, Dumbarton, said: “Is it part of Halliday’s contract that he wears his Rangers kit in training? As I recall he said he wouldn’t play for another Scottish club when Rangers released him.”

Finally, Donald Frame wasn’t impressed with Apinun Khongsong suffering a first-round KO against Josh Taylor on Saturday. He said: “The fight was a pure farce and if the public had paid at the door they would have demanded their money back.”
