St Mirren ’s clash with Celtic is further proof Scottish football is not “bulletproof” from coronavirus. The Buddies should have been lining up to face Neil Lennon’s Hoops side this evening, looking to bounce back from a disappointing 3-0 loss against Rangers on Sunday.
Instead, the game was called off yesterday after Celtic defender Boli Bolingoli, right, broke government public health guidance and football protocols by travelling to Spain.
He returned to Scotland and came on at 87 minutes against Kilmarnock on Sunday, keeping his trip a secret and failing to self-isolate on his return from the continent.His actions followed in the footsteps of eight Aberdeen players who broke public health rules in the city after their opening day.
