QUOTE OF THE DAY

-

‘Do Celtic get seeded for the Eurovision Song Contest if they fail to get through the tie in Norway next Thursday?’

Gordon Parks and Fraser Wilson will all be eating large slices of humble pie after their Rangers prediction­s.”

Chris Lowe, Yoker, said: “The same folk who touted Odsonne Edouard as being worth £40million for scoring mainly penalties for the French Under-21s surely must now admit record-breaking Alfredo Morelos is worth at least £30m.

“Or is the fact he hasn’t scored against Cowdenbeat­h on a Monday afternoon going against him?”

Paul Price, Belfast, said: “I’m a Celtic man and this Europa Conference League is nothing more than a distractio­n we can do without. Flying around Europe, coming home on a Friday morning then playing again on a Sunday... the league is a priority. And this isn’t sour grapes – that was a good result for Rangers.”

Kenny Wilson, Moffat, said: “I shall eat humble pie after my prediction that Rangers would get a hiding and say well done on an incredible result. It was another disappoint­ing European result from Celtic when they were second best all night and it’s hard to think of anything you can take that was a positive.”

Kenny Taylor, Johnstone, said: “Celtic’s result shows the massive difference between us and Rangers. That Old Firm victory means nothing. We are still the same old team who embarrass Scottish football every time we take to the European stage.”

Benjamin Clarke, Balornock, said: “It was a poor midfield performanc­e by Celtic. We were beaten by a sharper team and should send a second-string side to Norway. Let’s concentrat­e on winning the league.”

Paul McCormack, Coatbridge, said: “Celtic suffered a bloody nose but we are a short period into a rebuild, have one trophy in the cabinet and are top of the league. We are going in the right direction.”

Finally Robbie MacLeod, said: “Do Celtic get seeded for the Eurovision Song Contest if they fail to get through next Thursday?”
