Hoop swoop revenge for Miller move

Celtic earned a small measure of revenge over Manchester United for the poaching of Liam Miller by snatching young Canada star Jacob Lensky from under the nose of Alex Ferguson.

Lensky, will join the Scottish champs when he turns 16 in December, after a trial period at United was prevented by a hamstring injury.

Injured Celtic striker Shaun Maloney is hopeful he can make his comeback by the end of the year.

But he admits just being able to run without pain in his knee would be a massive achievement at the moment.

Maloney will know more about how he is progressing when he returns to the US for more treatment in July but he is determined to eventually reach peak fitness again.
