Celtic were up against A League opposition this week but made to look like Z-list quality as they slipped up on the first night of Ange Postecoglou ’s homecoming tour Down Under.
The Sydney Super Cup may only be a kick-about competition but try telling that to the furious Hoops support who got up at the crack of dawn to see their side humbled by the tournament hosts at the Allianz Stadium. Denis Bruce, Bishopbriggs , said: “Who cannot agree with Ange's outburst at his lackadaisical and lethargic Celts who let him down big time against a well-marshalled and competent Sidney FC side.
“They made the Parkheaders look like novices, ending Postecoglou’s hope of a triumphant homecoming. It looked as though they saw the visit to Oz as a junket where they could relax and allow complacency to seep into their play. They had better wake up against Everton or face further embarrassment.”
