John Hartson fires Celtic warning to fringe stars after failing to take chance vs St Mirren

John Hartson has fired a warning to Celtic's fringe men over regular game-time after failing to grab their opportunity against St Mirren.

Ange Postecoglou shuffled his pack for the Premiership clash in Paisley, making six changes from the midweek Champions League draw with Shakhtar Donetsk in Warsaw. The likes of Jota, Reo Hatate and Matt O'Riley all started on the bench while ever-present Cameron Carter-Vickers was ruled out injured - with the stopper pulling out the USA squad.

The changes didn't pay off as the Buddies shocked the Scottish champions with a 2-0 win and with that brought an end to their 100 per cent start to the league campaign. It also stopped Celtic's long-standing unbeaten run that fell one day shy of one full year. Speaking on Go Radio, Hartson said: “When you think Celtic started with Maeda, Kyogo and Abada, that was Celtic’s first choice front three last season before Giakoumakis started to come in and do very well.
