Celtic connect four at Killie

CELTIC moved within a point of Rangers at the top of the Clydesdale Bank Premier League after trouncing Kilmarnock 4-0 at Rugby Park last night.

In a breathtaking performance, a Kris Commons double and a Gary Hooper strike had the points tied up for the visitors before the interval.

Ireland international striker Anthony Stokes scored a fourth at the start of the second half and in the end the punch-drunk Ayrshire side were happy not to concede any more goals.
