How Celtic really feel about Rangers shocker is visible in their eyes as key man shuts out 'complacency' narrative

dailyrecord.co.uk:

It was an unwanted bolt from the blue so unexpected Alistair Johnston admits he didn't have a scooby where it came from.But the Hoops defender knows where it definitely didn’t come.

And that was any sense of complacency. Celtic were not just absent from the races in Govan. It was more like the stables had been raided and taken to the glue factory.Brendan Rodgers’ side were unrecognisable to the outfit that galloped through 2024 with just two defeats in 50 games all competitions.

The are now zero from one in 2025 after a display so uncharacteristic it could have been a sequel to Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

Johnston struggled to get his head around it too. Celtic were expected by many – including Rangers fans – to simply turn up, pocket the points, and head back across the city to leave the Ibrox side to deal with the fallout.
