KEITH JACKSON : At his most vulnerable point. The mob is gathering after Saturday’s horror show in Dublin and Clarke has no excuse for the ineptitude of that performance. He needs to get back to picking his best players because anything less than three points in Armenia could be catastrophic.

OK, it’s time for some serious questions to be asked of Steve Clarke.

Celtic this season.One look at the virtue signalling going on in Dingwall on Sunday night, when Neil Lennon’s very last hopes of some miraculous recovery were completely snuffed out, really said it all.Diego Laxalt allowing Jordan White to give him the slip at a set piece to thud home Ross County’s winner, then throwing his hands in the air as if someone else ought to have been doing his defending for him, perfectly summed up a campaign which started badly and which is ending in unimaginable

Celtic’s cataclysmic collapse is concerned.When the year from hell finally ended Neil Lennon was still clinging on to his position on the back of a run of wins throughout December.He was looking forward to the chance to cut the gap at the top of the table to just 13 points.Potentially, at least, it could have been down to four.Now here they are, just 11 days and two games into 2021, marooned 21 points behind Rangers and wading through the wreckage of a spectacular, self-inflicted decline, with

Celtic have become the Inconvinceables. Not quite sure where they are heading under Neil Lennon and, in this season of all seasons, unable to rediscover the levels of form which will almost certainly be required in order to salvage their hopes of a tenth successive title.

Rangers had their say during the club’s online AGM.And the message they sent to Dave King, while gentle, polite and in parts even deferential, also represented a fairly damning assessment of the former chairman’s pied-piper plan to cash in on all of the hard work done in his absence over the course of these past 12 months or so.While King has made a typically boorish call for fans to club together and stump up £13million to buy him out, the directors he left behind holding the baby, are still

No wonder Steven Gerrard needs a little time to think things over.

Q.1 Steven Gerrard admitted he has some soul searching to do after Rangers Scottish Cup exit but what does the future hold for the Ibrox boss?

The Lights were on and for the briefest of moments last night it did feel as if Celtic might just dance themselves out of the tightest of spots.

Keith Jackson: It will take another monumental effort to get the job done as this is a talented, powerful Portuguese opponent. But last week’s storming second half comeback gives the Ibrox men a chance of progressing to the last 16. Fingers crossed they can get out of town with the draw they need.

Rangers and Steven Gerrard can use the Europa League break to get their form and confidence back.

Celtic arrive in Denmark as favourites in their Europa League last 32 clash with Copenhagen.
