Fans react to Tim Farron’s dig at Celtic

Tim Farron caused quite a stir on social media earlier this week following his strange dig at Celtic and Rangers. 

The former Liberal Democrats leader compared Boris Johnson and Dominic Cummings to Celtic in a bizarre dig on social media, responding to a post about the general election.

And following the post, these fans shared their reactions on social media.

READ CELTIC VERDICT

Farron has since responded to some of the criticism that greeted his initial Tweet by suggesting his post was a “weak analogy” rather than being “bizarre.”

Either way, it’s hardly surprising his comments certainly didn’t go down well. To suggest that Celtic have been as successful as they have recently due to having “abysmal” competition is highly disrespectful of the hard work and dedication that has gone into it.
