If the title race stress is getting to the players then Alistair Johnston has a great poker face. As Celtic get ready to dive into the final four games that will either see them be confirmed as champions or runners up, Alistair is diving into the pool with his dog!

Posting the incredibly wholesome video on Instagram, the Canadian didn’t look to have a care in the world as he splashed around with his dog.

The right back will be in the lineup come Saturday at Celtic Park when Hearts come to town. The bhoys know if they beat the Tynecastle outfit they could all but seal the title against Rangers the following week. However having been beaten twice this term by the Jambos already, stress levels among the support are palpable.

Alistair is one of those players who is very chilled off the pitch, but fiery and fiercely competitive on it. Come Saturday, he will have his game face on.

Even for the dynamics of the weekend, Celtic could go six points clear before The Rangers kick off on Sunday against St Mirren with a win. It’s a nervy end to the season and Celtic Park is likely to be packed for the Hearts tie.
