After 100 league starts and 27 goals it finally happened for James Forrest today- he scored with a header.

The 25-year-old scored on his debut in 2010 but seven years later he managed to nod the ball into the net thanks to a Moussa Dembele shot that struck the woodwork allowing Forrest to convert.

After the midweek draw with Partick Thistle Celtic returned to action with some conviction as a large crowd celebrated in the sunshine the new that Brendan Rodgers has signed a new contract committing himself to Celtic till 2021.

While some elements of the English media wonder how he can survive without visiting Stoke, West Brom and Bournemouth no one inside Celtic Park had to explain the chemistry between the former Liverpool boss and his adoring public.

Rodgers is a tough as they come when it comes to the demands and expectations that he puts on players but the softer, emotional side was obvious to all at the end when he soaked up the praise and applause realising, as he said earlier in the week that he is in his dream job.
