Celtic striker Scott McDonald has slammed the suggestion he is overweight and is looking forward to scoring goals for Australia and Celtic F.C. The 25-year-old, who has scored three goals this season to add to the 31 he netted during the last campaign, described claims in the Scottish press that he was "two stone overweight" and had "enjoyed a summer of excess" as "nonsense". However, even the newspaper publishing his rebuttal, the Melbourne Herald Sun, opts to label him as a "Stocky Socceroo," which appears as subtle as describing someone carrying few extra pounds as "larger-than-life." McDonald said: "I didn't take too kindly to suggestions that I was overweight. It's just a load of nonsense. But it's something that inspires you to go out there and chuck it back at them. "My fitness hasn't been up to scratch, but people have got to realise that when you've been out for three to four weeks with a groin injury and you've only played two games at the start of the season before that, you haven't had much game time. "I can reassure you that everything is fine, my weight is the same as what it was last season when I was scoring goals and I'll continue to work hard to get fitter. Hopefully that will see me get back to the top of my game and have me scoring goals for my club and country." Assuming McDonald doesn't have any problems with his weight, it's slightly worrying that he can admit his "fitness hasn't been up to scratch" while preparing to play for Australia, especially as he is not even guaranteed a game. And while it's only right to support Celtic's international players when they are away representing their countries, McDonald with Australia and Shunsuke Nakamura are a little further away than the players who are winning caps around Europe. |

I heard somewhere that Skippy was the 2nd heaviest player at the club after Bobo! Can that be right? |

There is no way he is overweight. :rolleyes: He is however, heavier than he was last season. Needs to lay off the fags and booze. That's why he ain't scoring goals like he did last season. Big, big mistake giving someone with his ego the number 7 jersey. Second heaviest at the club.

Surely Gary Caldwell must have a shout at that crown with the size of his heid alone. Do egos weigh anything? :unsure: |
