CELTIC FOOTBALL FANS

Celtic manager Neil Lennon has confirmed that defender Mark Wilson will be leaving the club at the end of the season. Mark Wilson can leave the club with this head held high due to his incredible service to the club over the last six and half years according to manager Neil Lennon. They were part of the Celtic team back in 2006 that were defeated in Copenhagen. Lennon recalled many occasions when Wilson was a major part of the Celtic team’s success. Wilson initially joined Celtic back in 2006 January, and has been at the club ever since. However, the defender will leave the club in the summer in order to search for new pastures according to Lennon.

Neil Lennon made Wilson as the captain for the 1-0 win over St Johnstone during the weekend. Due to the fact that the wage bill and the size of the squad is extremely large, Lennon revealed that he will be trimming the squad in the summer. Wilson is expected to be the unlucky person amongst the current crop of defenders at Celtic Park. The 27-year-old has suffered a number of injuries this season, which have unfortunately meant that he has not been the first choice. This position is expected to continue next season as well.

“He’s going to have to move on. We have made provision for next season. It will probably be his last time playing at Celtic Park. He has been a tremendous servant to the club. Unfortunately for him he has been curtailed by injury this season. He was magnificent for us last year. He had that knee surgery in the first half of the season and it held him back this year. We are going to trim the squad,” said Neil Lennon after the 1-0 win over St Johnstone.

Joe Ledley has said that Celtic should not be worried too much about the disappointment in the old firm derby recently. Celtic came into the latest old firm derby with the belief that they can claim the title from Rangers at the home ground of their arch rivals. However, they were stunned after they slipped to a 3-2 defeat. There were expectations of a comeback after two goals in 2 min from Celtic in the last few minutes. However, they simply could not get the third goal, which would have completed a stunning comeback. As it is, Celtic have to wait one more week in order to claim the title from Rangers.

Rangers will taking on Motherwell on Saturday. It is a game that will determine the title celebration for Celtic, as Celtic have the opportunity to lift the title depending upon the result at Motherwell. Celtic will be hosting St Johnstone on Sunday, and could be champions by the time. Celtic come into the match against St Johnstone after having suffered back-to-back defeats. The first defeat came in the Scottish Communities League Cup final, in which they lost to Kilmarnock. The second of 3-2 defeat at the hands of Rangers was even more hard to take, but Joe Ledley has urged Celtic to return to winning ways as soon as possible.

“We’re going to have another opportunity to prove ourselves and hopefully get a win. We just need to concentrate on the three points. We weren’t happy with how things went on Sunday, but we need to pick ourselves up and go again. They were fantastic. They are the best support in Scotland without a doubt and were fantastic on Sunday,” Joe Ledley said ahead of the match with St Johnstone. Celtic currently have an 18 point advantage at the top of the table.

Celtic manager Neil Lennon has said that he is extremely pleased with the way his club managed to grind out a result against St Mirren in the latest round of the Scottish Premier league fixtures.

Celtic had the ability to stay top of the Scottish Premier league table with a win over St Mirren. The 2-0 win might sound flattering on Celtic, but it was a hard-fought victory for Neil Lennon and his men. After the match, the Celtic manager said that it is these kind of victories that will ultimately win you the title. As a result of this win, Celtic currently maintain their four-point advantage over Rangers.

The win for Celtic was even better because of the fact that Rangers could only draw against Aberdeen in their future. As a result, the four-point advantage over Rangers will provide Celtic with a substantial cushion as they head into the European round of fixtures for both clubs. Rangers have been having a stranglehold on the Scottish Premier league title in recent seasons, but this weekend would have provided Celtic with enough confidence that they can finally bring back the title from Ibrox this season. Ultimately, it was the strength in depth that helped Celtic win the match against St Mirren, as opposed to the draw Rangers suffered at the hands of Aberdeen.

“I think the players have a lot of pride in this run and want to maintain it for as long as they can. They showed great character. You aren’t always going to play scintillating football, there are times when you have to show character and resolve and they did that,” Celtic boss Neil Lennon said after the match. Both teams have played 24 games each, while Celtic have a slightly better goal difference than Rangers.
