Celtic slumped to a shock 2-0 defeat at Falkirk on Sunday, their sixth loss in 10 matches, piling more pressure on Martin O'Neill. An early error from Cameron Carter-Vickers and a superb display from former Celtic goalkeeper Scott Bain sealed a famous afternoon for the hosts, who claimed a fourth straight win and their first over the Bhoys since 2007.
Heart of Midlothian were just minutes away from the title last May. But two late Celtic goals in the “decider” in Glasgow shattered the underdogs’ dream. The pitch invasion that followed at Parkhead only made the nightmare worse.
Former Celtic defender Alan Stubbs has explained to GOAL why Premier League transfer talk has faded away for Hoops and USMNT centre-half Cameron Carter-Vickers. The Tottenham academy graduate was being heavily linked with a return to England at one stage, but plenty of difficult recruitment questions are now being asked at Parkhead.
Celtic manager Martin O'Neill has officially confirmed his decision to stay at the club after a brief period of reflection during the international break. The experienced boss had considered his future following three consecutive defeats, but he is now fully prepared to lead the team forward and resume their ongoing battle for the Scottish league title.
