McGeady vital in Mowbray's plans

Tony Mowbray is hoping in-form Aiden McGeady can help breathe life into Celtic’s ailing Europa League hopes when Hapoel Tel Aviv visit Parkhead on Wednesday night.

The Republic of Ireland midfielder was a stand-out in yesterday’s 3-1 home win over St Mirren which took the Hoops two points clear of Old Firm rivals Rangers at the top of the Clydesdale Bank Premier League, albeit the Ibrox men have a game in hand.
