Kilmarnock 2-3 Celtic – It’s time for some Definitive Ratings

FATHER MARTIN AND SAMWISE GANGEE – 7.5/10 – What? The starting eleven… The…? Then, WTH! A shaker-maker of a first-half calamity had MON and his merry mhen deep in the mind-palace vaults seeking out the ancient texts of classic two-down comebacks and how to structure them. Bang, bang, bang – no messing around; party-poopers ejected by bouncer Fozzy and the hunger games began right after the interval with those maybe surprised at their bench-warming given the opportunity to prove the boss wrong.

And the old fox with his cadre of wily personalities dug it out again. How long can he keep the sorcery up? Maybe not required much longer, as sensational turnarounds like these come with their own perspective-shifting momentum that can have his chosen ones running all over opponents for the rest of the season. Belief breeds the bludgeoning of upstarts and thirst for triumph. Let’s hope the Bhoys keep the faith.

MIBBERY – 6.5/10 – Lang streak o’ scurrilous urine with a whistle. True colours revealed at the scandalous free-kick award with which they crashed the bar, compounded Zombery  in a booking for the Celtic skipper in the same incident, which was the CLEANEST tackle of the game. But his face when we won it… Oh the  glorious anguish. And he’ll remember Azteco’s disdainful laughing dismissal of his petulant yellow for a long, long time. LOL, roon ye.
