Celtic!  Again!
By Andrew McCarten, TheSportsStand.com (4/29/07)

     Scottish Premier League powerhouse Celtic FC have won the SPL again. This is nothing new, considering this is their 41st league title. Celtic clinched the title April 22 against Kilmarnock on a stoppage time goal from Shunsuke Nakamura. Gordon Strachan is quickly building a name for himself, as this is his second SPL title in a row and they also knocked off EPL powerhouse Manchester United earlier in the season. They almost eliminated AC Milan in the final sixteen of the Champions League. Celtic were led by Shunsuke Nakamura, Aidan McGeady, Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink and captain Neil Lennon. Celtic have shown that they are not only the team to beat in the SPL, but they have the talent and belief in themselves to make noise in the Champions League also. Look for the Bhoys to repeat next year and extend their superiority of the SPL. And I know my friend Scott Beaty used this line, but it’s Celtic’s song too. You’ll Never Walk Alone!
