Hoops without Hooper

13 August 2010 14:30
Celtic will be without Gary Hooper for the Clydesdale Bank Premier League opener at Inverness after the striker suffered a calf injury in the pre-season defeat by Blackburn. Scott Brown will have his ankle problem assessed after missing Scotland`s defeat by Sweden and Thomas Rogne is likely to miss out after suffering a thigh injury while playing for Norway Under-21s. But Israel midfielder Beram Kayal could make his debut and James Forrest has recovered from illness.
