Adam Idah leaves Celtic snipers wishing they'd stayed quiet as Irish pundit tells skeptics they got it WRONG

The Irish media are raving about Adam Idah's recent explosion at Celtic - with one former Ireland star delighted he's proving his early snipers wrong.

Norwich striker Idah was brought in on loan at the death of the January window by Brendan Rodgers and his arrival was far from universally well-received. After a window that promised much but delivered little, Idah's announcement - with just an hour remaining until the deadline - was met with a few grunts and groans about the calibre of the signing. as he'd failed to force his way into the Canaries' starting XI in the English Championship.
