With no sign of their Ibrox stand off coming to an end BBC Scotland are going to increasing Levels to rebuild their special relationship.

Anyone taking an impartial look at Celtic’s win over Hibs will conclude that Brendan Rodgers’ side were well worth full points. Anyone except those inside the state broadcaster.

Sure Hibs built a few attacks in the second half. Florian Kamberi scored an exceptional goal and they did pose more of a threat that any other domestic visitors to Celtic Park this season

The BBC viewed it:

Celtic survive late scare in six goal thriller with Hibs

However for everything that Hibs did well Celtic had three or four comparable incidents. The hoops hit the woodwork four times and took the Hibs defence apart repeatedly.

Efe Ambrose and Darren McGregor had horrendous afternoon’s, pulled all over the park and repeatedly left exposed by Celtic’s attacking play.

This was despite the loss of skipper Scott Brown after 20 minutes. Callum McGregor played in three positions and was a cut above anything that Hibs had to offer.

McGregor wasn’t man of the match, Tom Rogic picked up that award with the opening goal  typical of his contribution.

Here and there the BBC has some worthwhile contributors, Michael Stewart is independent enough to speak his mind and offer praise where it is due.

Elsewhere their allegiance is plain to see, it is barely disguised.

Were Charlie Adam and Russell Martin the most relevant players to interview in the hour before Scotland played Portugal.

Outside of the closed world of Sevco no one really cares about the manager of Morton, Jonatan Johansson’s views on a Columbian footballer signed from Finland.
