Why sell Mckenna?

There is a certain irony in the fact that, having signed James Wilson to address our attacking deficiencies, he is unavailable for the next game we play and in the end it is academic as the team suddenly comes to life and plays rampant football against St Mirren.

Meanwhile, press rumours circulate about a possible Celtic bid for Scott Mckenna. What remains to be seen is whether, following their Champions League exit and extravagent expenditure on “party lights”, Celtic are in a position to afford him? We are short at the back and it would take an exceptional bid for us to sell a 21-year-old Scotland international, who has already captained the national side, and has five years left on his contract. I guess Celtic need to be seen to be active in the transfer market.
