The Scotland international spoke out after photographs of him attending a racecourse meeting appeared on social media.Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers later reminded the former Wolves man to take responsibility for dealing with his issues.Rodgers told several newspapers earlier this week: “It’s very important that he understands why he is off and why he has been given the time off. Why he has to maximise that time in terms of getting better.“That’s about getting specialist help and lying low and focusing on the simple things in your life that will allow you to be better.”3
