Following Celtic’s victory at Hibernian, Eilidh Barbour chuckles at Kris Boyd’s absurd assertion.

Celtic left it late to tightly closed a dramatic win over Hibernian at Easter Road on Wednesday night time in a sport that was once a tale of penalties.

Brendan Rodgers’ aspect have been awarded two spot-kicks, in either half, which include in the 90th minute, and they were dispatched by January mortgage signing, Adam Idah.

But Kris Boyd felt that Hibernian ought to have had a penalty of their very own after he claimed that Celtic left-back Alexandro Bernabei fouled Martin Boyle.

The former striker delivered ‘I have seen them given’, earlier than presenter Eilidh Barbour laughed at him and asked ‘where have you seen them given?’, with James McFadden including ‘you are clutching at straws’, as they told Sky Sports Football (07/02/24 at 10:25 pm).

As Kris Boyd used to be spouting his traditional nonsense, Eilidh Barbour did point out ‘I don’t understand why the two subsequent to you (James McFadden and Neil Lennon) are laughing so much’.

It was once clear that the former Rangers man was once clutching at straws, as Celtic now have a three-point lead at the top of the table, but it’s clear that a title race is well and absolutely on this term.

That’s why those two Adam Idah penalties should prove to be surely pivotal down the line.

Celtic beat Hibernian at Easter Road
“I have viewed them given,” said Boyd.

Eilidh Barbour then spoke back and laughed herself: “I don’t know why the two subsequent to you (James McFadden and Neil Lennon) are laughing so much.”

McFadden stated: “You are clutching at straws.”

Boyd then continued even as his fellow panellists continued to laugh: “I know what them two are going to say. You can pretty truly see that Bernabei does catch him a little bit, but you can see it proper here. There you go. We are laughing, however I have viewed them given.”

Barbour then asked: “Where have you considered them given, Kris?”

Boyd then claimed: “I have no doubt there will be some conspiracy theorists out there who have been moaning about them now not getting them in the past.”

Celtic dragging themselves through
It was another dogged show from the team, but the most necessary factor is that three points were delivered.

Even Rodgers himself would admit that Celtic have been nowhere near their high-quality this season, yet they are nonetheless sitting top of the Scottish Premiership.

Some success is needed, in regards to the injuries, because it has been all stop-start for many, many months now and it is simply ensuing in too many chopping and altering to the XI.

But the supporters understand that when it things most, when these crunch moments arrive, the Bhoys turn up and produce the goods, so deliver on the subsequent few months!
