    And Refs turning blind eye to hammer throwers hacking our players.

    Real shame - mind you, he's been due a rest for some time... will hopefully come back all guns blazing!

    *... he’s been out weeks already.... surprised it wasn’t done sooner? Or was he on the nhs wait list?

    No ‘Derby’ for him then.

    Wonder if Dembele will get any game time then. Nah, probably not.

    He's been immense last 2 seasons. Really big loss for us.

    Real blow this. Looks like it could be the end of January before we see him back in the team. Probably was carrying the injury for a while before he went down in Sarajevo as well which would explain his lack of early season form. Lets hope this at least gets him sorted so when he does return hopefully at some point in January at least that he is able to get back to his best form of the past few seasons.

    Hope so, we dont want to burn out young Jerry.
    Hopefully, Micky J can have an impact on right side.

    Ffs I thought the way they were going on about it he was out for 6-8 months, we’ll cope fine without him for a month and a half.

    In recent weeks it’s clear to see how much Forrest actually gives us in the way of goals and assists . We might not notice a lot of what he does but since he has been
    Injured our performances have been worsw

    Celtic winger James Forrest will be out for between six to eight weeks at best after he had ankle surgery on Tuesday, manager Neil Lennon has said.

    The Hoops winger, who last played against Riga in September, had the operation after encasing his foot in a protective boot failed to work.


    Ahead of the Europa League clash with Sparta Prague at Celtic Park on Thursday, Lennon said: "His foot was in a pot, a boot, for the last couple of weeks but when it came out of the boot there was no significant improvement, in fact it was getting worse.


    "So he went to see a specialist and he recommended the surgery being done, and it was done yesterday.

    "We think it has been a success but we are looking at quite a considerable time out still.

    Best-case scenario is probably six to eight weeks - but it may be longer than that. We will see how he settles after the surgery."

    To think the wee man took pelters on a regular basis. OK he did have some games where he didn't shine but it's only when he's not there that we see what he brings to the team when he's on his game.

    I like James Forrest, he’s one of our best players. Never been one of the haters but it’s crazy how people forget a player was in poor form. All you need to do to be Celtic’s best player is not play any games, especially when we’re doing badly.

    If Duffy is kept out the team long enough he’ll be ‘Premier League Quality’ again.
