They are blowing the league- listen to Hugh Keevins on Saturday as he dismisses Celtic’s SPFL challenge

Hugh Keevins was in his pomp on Saturday despite Celtic moving four points clear at the top of the SPFL table.

After a lifetime of calling things out completely wrong the veteran debater still gets a kick out of predicting doom and gloom for Scotland’s most successful ever club.

Since Mark Warburton entered the top tier of Scottish football Celtic’s demise has been excitedly predicted, at the start of this season Michael Beale was about to expose Brendan Rodgers by presenting the Irishman with his first real challenge in Scottish football.

When that Revolution failed to make it until the end of British Summer Time Keevins switched his faith to Mister Clement, apparently he was a proper football manager and ready to cut Celtic and Rodgers down to size- once again.

At half time on Saturday with Celtic drawing 0-0 at home to St Mirren Mark Wilson warned of the consequences of Celtic failing to take full points against the Paisley side, that was just the introduction that Keevins required as he jumped in with:

It has gone because Rangers will beat Ross County tomorrow and will go top and will extend their lead at the top wherever the match against Dundee is played in midweek.

If Celtic conform to the Keevins metric a draw is a disaster, a defeat is a catastrophe. They are blowing the league and they are 45 minutes to disprove my theory.

This morning Celtic are at the top of the SPFL Premiership table, they will be there on Thursday morning, over the weekend and through until at least April 27.

Keevins will be back on Super Scoreboard during the week, sharing the wisdom and knowledge of over 50 years watching football from the Press Box, Sports Desk and radio studio.
