goal half number second spell start top
I thought in the first half we were excellent. We got one goal and could have got a number more. Hibs were on top for a spell at the start of the second half, but after our second goal there was only going to be one winner.

Julien is still having some tests done but he's going home for the weekend and will hopefully start training with us on Tuesday.

Michal will hopefully start some light training this week but Saturday will probably be too early.
blood celtic contention cracked good hospital initially kept news next passing start training week
He should be able to start training next week all going well which is good news as initially we thought it could have been a cracked rib because he was passing blood and was in a lot of pain.
