Lo and behold! Famous Celtic Glasgows gets totally whipped in Slovakia. Biggest win in their history for Artmedia, a team that was only of regional significance just few years ago
I wonder if Scotty is a Celtics fan?

CELTIC'S Champions League aspirations were left in ruins last night after a traumatic and savage beating by Artmedia Bratislava.
It was the heaviest and most humiliating defeat in their proud European history.
Gordon Strachan's first competitive game in charge became a nightmarish ordeal and, barring a miraculous recovery, the unthinkable is now a frightful inevitability.
Having financed a £7.5m rebuilding programme, Celtic's notoriously prudent plc board were banking on qualification for the group stages to recoup their outlay. Instead, they now stand on the brink of elimination at the second qualifying phase without the consolation of a UEFA Cup place.
Juraj Halenar, identified by Strachan as a primary threat, vindicated his status with a hat trick, while the irrepressible Blajek Vascak and Martin Mikulic were the other contributers. Artmedia were well worth the handsome margin of victory and feasted on an unsightly capitulation.
