KAIRAT THE BOARD

You could try to write it off as bad day at the office but it would be wilful blindness
There will be plenty of Celtic fans feeling a bit silly right now after thinking the team had more than enough to be heading to Kazakhstan next week with a healthy lead and one foot in the Champions League.
But they will have fallen for it all again.
Instead, Celtic are heading 3500 miles across the world with their backside hanging out once again.
Brendan Rodgers' side might pull this one out of the fire. The tie is at 0-0 and Kairat looked nothing more than a big, solid, well-organised outfit.
The odds are heavily stacked against them. No Scottish side has ever won in Kazakhstan and the logistics of it all means teams are practically two down before a ball is kicked.
So here we are again with Celtic - on the verge of a Champions League calamity.
