Celtic confirmed their status as Scottish Premier League champions on the day they received the SPL trophy with a thumping 4-0 win over St Johnstone at Parkhead, yesterday. Skipper Scott Brown (picture), who returned for the first time in three months after injury, was handed the trophy from a representative of the league’s sponsors to huge cheers from the Hoops fans, who, after some indifferent displays and results recently, saw their side back to its best.
