It may be Celtic in the leading role, but the supporting cast of Scottish football deserve recognition as well.
The glitz and glam of the Oscars will be on full display in Hollywood tonight, but give us shorts and socks over tuxes and frocks any day of the week.

The cinch is always box office though. It may not be packed with A-listers or be as visually enticing as its bigger budget rivals, but the storylines and dialogue are second to none. There’s a new villain every week depending on your perspective and time in the director’s chair is limited if you oversee too many successive flops or not enough entertainment for demanding audiences who are desperate to see a hit featuring their favourite stars.
