    Rowan Vine scored one and made one as St Johnstone beat Celtic.

    <laugh> I wondered if it was the actual Rowan Vine when I saw it on the news. I'm still shocked. It wasn't a bad finish either. Rather strange Celebration though...

    Funny result, just a shame it won't have any impact on the final table. Would be nice to think that now Rangers are gone for a few seasons that Celtic went off the boil and got turned over every week but that won't happen :(

    Slightly O/T but I can't believe we got Aluko for basically nothing from Rangers.

    He's class, other clubs must have known about him.

    I'm gonna go ahead and put this out there:

    I never thought Vine was that bad.

    I didn't see the half he had away at Barnsley where I'm told he was appalling and even made Folan look good when he replaced him. Maybe this is what I'm missing. Aside from that I thought he did OK.

    I had a browse of the Millwall forum on Vital Football, and one of their fans reckons he's been getting texts from his mates since yesterday as "Aluko's ****e", and even he scored. Bizarre. He's a very good player.

    "BBC Sport understands that Aluko turned down offers from Spain, France, Turkey, Italy, China, Turkey and India to return to English football."

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19062774

    Didn't know about all that other interest, I just know one Turkish club claimed they had signed him a couple of days before we made it official. They even had an article on their website called "Aluko welcome to Turkey" I believe, my memory fades me so maybe not. Think the club may have been Trabzonspor, I don't know many Turkish clubs but it was one that I did know and that names rings bells in my little head.

    The SPL has been a joke for years in terms of real quality. That said the title race looks wide open at the moment. Celtic to me looked like they had both eyes on the CL game midweek. FFS, losing to St.Johnstone of all teams. Lol

    3rd time I've had Celtic in my lucky63 and accumulator this season and they failed to win. I keep thinking they can't let it happen again, but they do. Maybe losing rangers will be good for the spl as it looks like others have really upped their games.

    They can't be that bad, they have a range of paints AND a cup competition named after them.
