Celtic’s unconvincing start to the season continued on Sunday afternoon as they were beaten 2-1 away at Kilmarnock.

The Bhoys narrowly beat Rosenborg 1-0 in the Europa League on Thursday night, but were back to league action today, having drawn 0-0 away at St Mirren last week.

Brendan Rodgers was hoping to get back to winning ways in the league today, as he took his side to take on Steve Clarke’s Kilmarnock at Rugby Park.

Leigh Griffiths’ second goal in two games put Celtic on their way towards victory, but a second half capitulation rocked the Bhoys and left them heading back to Glasgow pointless.

Former Rangers winger Chris Burke struck to put Kilmarnock level, before ex-Celtic defender Stuart Findlay haunted his former club with a 93rd minute winner for the hosts.

It’s now three wins in six league games for Celtic this season, a disappointing return for Rodgers and co as they look for another Scottish Premiership title.

With problems on and off the field, fans are concerned – and ex-Celtic striker Chris Sutton has taken to Twitter to claim that the current Bhoys side is ‘very very ordinary’, as proved against Kilmarnock, adding that Killie deserved their victory in another poor Celtic performance.
