Scottish Premiership: Tony Stokes hopes Celtic can swiftly find consistency

Celtic striker Tony Stokes is hoping the team can quickly find consistency following the 5-0 victory over Ross County on Saturday.

Stokes scored twice at Victoria Park as Celtic cruised to victory on a ground where they have struggled in past visits.

The win was vital for Celtic as the team have laboured since the start of the campaign, and had gone into the match on the back of a home defeat to Hamilton two weeks ago.

But Ronny Deila’s side now have the chance to get some momentum with a Europa League tie against Astra Giurgiu on Thursday and domestic matches against Kilmarnock, Partick and Inverness Caley, all at Celtic Park.

Stokes said: "Our form has been patchy this year and losing a home game before the international break wasn't an ideal scenario.

"We knew the fans were disappointed and so were we.

We need to go on a good run now and bring some consistency into our game.

"We weren't happy with our performance against Hamilton, myself included. I went away very disappointed after missing two great chances.

"It stung for a while but we've bounced back.

"It was a good team performance, we worked hard and we took our chances when we created them in the first half.

"At the back we were solid and going forward we always looked a threat.

"We need to go on a good run now and bring some consistency into our game."
