"That result is on me." Neil McCann doesn't hide after Kilmarnock's 5-1 hammering by Celtic at Rugby Park, taking full responsibility for asking his side to play open and expansive - an approach that left them exposed on the counter and was severely punished. The Killie boss felt his team were the better side in the opening spell, but a lack of quality in the final third and a run of costly mistakes let Celtic run riot, with Kasper Høgh's first-half hat-trick putting the game beyond them by the break.
McCann admits it's a step backwards, points to a big individual error for one of the goals, and turns his attention to a massive game on Friday.
Fair from McCann to take the blame - or is there more to worry about for Kilmarnock? Let us know below.
