Nothing to worry about as the BRodger rested most of his first team ahead of the return CL match in Athens. He probably reasoned that one defeat/draw would not hinder their attempt to win another SPL title. Tynecastle matches are always feisty physical affairs and there is a high risk of injury to players. From the little I saw there will be a few black and blue bodies tomorrow.

Well...at least this will give some joy to Scottish football fans who want to see competitive season.

Wish I had known he was playing a second fiddle side.

Celtic played a full strength team last time they were at Tynecastle and got humped 4-0! Maybe they should play the second XI every week!

One of Celtic's old cast-offs Teemu Pukki, a Scandinavian striker, who IMO was never given a chance to make his name at Celtic has somehow found himself playing for Norwich City and guess what ? You got it, he's scored today against WBA. That's the good news, the bad news.... Norwich are currently down by 3-4

Dons go third with a win over in Dundee. Hearts go top but Hibs should fix that today against St J.

This fellow really bowled me over with his astonishingly insightful summary of the forthcoming game in Greece. What a wizard. "We'll get a result. Whether it's enough or not, we'll get a result." You don't f***ing say. Everyone on there seems pretty pissed off at losing, even if Rodgers wasn't. One man said that the second tier players brought in should have played better as they've got the chance to prove themselves. But they didn't. All I know is Celtic haven't potted in three of their last four league games (once this term and twice at the end of last season when the title was already sewn up and they were playing without pride or passion, like yesterday really) This sort of arrogance will be their downfall in Athens on Tuesday. Oh, yes, and the bastards' inability to pot just once v Hearts cost me a 10/1 acca as well. Screw 'em!

A draw may not be enough in this case (unless it's 2-2 or better.) I like how a few of them appear to refer to Rogic as Roderick!

I like how a few of them appear to refer to Rogic as Roderick! Oh, okay. Some real thick accents there. I couldn't keep up with it all and missed the 'Roderick' references. Athens don't even start their league campaign until August 25. Apart from Celtic, they've been playing friendlies since their last competitive game in the Greek Cup back in May, so they're well rested. But in the three friendlies they've played only one goal was scored, and not by Athens, but I don't know what quality of players they were fielding. Tough on Tuesday, make no mistake. Not sure if they're entitled to be thrown into the Europa League after Tuesday, but if they do it could eventually be a CFC v Celtic situation.

They do go into the Europa Cup if they go out to AEK on Tuesday. Chelsea would murder them!
