FINDLAY KNOWS THE SCORE

Kilmarnock defender Stuart Findlay spent his formative years in football at Celtic thinking only winning was acceptable.

So he knows that his opponents tomorrow will be putting more pressure on themselves to get back to winning ways in the league than they will feel from outside.

But Findlay, inset, feels he and his Killie team- mates have a winning mentality themselves and will go to Parkhead with belief.

The 25- year- old, who had loan spells with Morton, Dumbarton and Killie before leaving Celtic for Newcastle in 2016 without making a first- team breakthrough, said: "Obviously it's different when you're a youth player because you have not got the media scrutiny of winning every week, but playing as a young player, it's not even the demands of the supporters, it's the demands you put on yourselves.

"It's weird, when I went on loan for the first time to Morton, and we draw the first game away to Falkirk, everybody was saying it was a great point. It took me a while to get my mind round not winning every game.

"And I know that Celtic players will be thinking that. Yeah, with the media and fans there might be a bit of pressure on them, but if it's the way I can imagine, they will be putting pressure on themselves.

"That's the thing I have tried to take with me since I left Celtic. Yes, a lot of people expect you to win but more importantly as an individual you expect to win every game of football that you play.”
