Rangers and Ryan Naderi finish off Celtic’s horror week with Old Firm victory

If ever a stadium can be rocked by silence, this was the moment. With no visiting fans allowed at any of this season’s Glasgow derbies, Ryan Naderi’s winning goal was met with nothing but the banging of fists of the clear plastic of the Rangers bench, and the shouting of the broadcast commentators. A screaming void of apathy and atrophy, the sound of a beckoning abyss, of a title race blowing open and a team slowly breaking apart. That Rangers were unable to celebrate this triumph with their fans in the stadium was, of course, a source of lament, as well as a measure of just how ugly this fixture has become over the years.

Slowly then all at once: this emboldened Celtic alliance could spell the end of the UK | Simon Jenkins

It’s something akin to a quiet earthquake: home nations jointly declaring their wish to be freed from English domination. A big move needs a big response Monday must have been a historical first. Never before have three of the four “nations” of the United Kingdom jointly demanded freedom to vote for its dissolution. Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have lost confidence in England. They declared in Cardiff that the unionist government at Westminster is “coming to an end”. There was no such Celtic alliance against the Normans, Edward I or Cromwell. Celtic MPs have never formed a voting coalition in parliament. The Victorian Liberal party advanced “home rule for all”, but that was not independence and it got nowhere. Ireland rebelled, but it did so alone. When this eventually succeeded, Britain said good riddance, kept hold of Belfast and continued to centralise power in London. Simon Jenkins is a Guardian columnist Continue reading...

Europa League roundup: Ferencvaros pile more misery on troubled Celtic

Hoops beaten again after chastening loss to Rangers Juventus hammer NEC, Besiktas pile woe on Marseille Celtic suffered another European embarrassment as the Scottish champions were beaten 3-1 at home by Ferencvaros in the Europa League. Just weeks on from crashing out of the Champions League qualifiers to Austrian side Lask, despite at one point holding a four-goal lead, Celtic’s defensive flaws were exposed once more. Martin O’Neill’s team also suffered a chastening 3-0 defeat to rivals Rangers last weekend and failed to deliver on their manager’s promise to respond. Bamidele Yusuf opened the scoring for the visitors before Mika Baur equalised late in the first half. However Kristoffer Zachariassen quickly put Ferencvaros back in front before Daniel Arzani’s sensational strike, on his return to Celtic Park, capped a fine night for Ferencvaros.
