Celtic fans react to Rangers supporter’s Tweet about Hoops Hamilton win

A Tweet from a Rangers supporter has sparked a big reaction from many Celtic fans following the incident involving Leigh Griffiths during the Hoops’ 4-1 win over Hamilton Accies on Sunday.

Celtic moved seven points clear of Rangers at the top of the league after a late blitz saw the Hoops run away with a 4-1 win to capitalise on their rivals’ 0-0 draw with Aberdeen on Saturday.

And during Celtic’s win, the Rangers fan vented his anger at the referee’s decision to not send Griffiths off following an alleged stamp on Sam Woods early in the first-half.

He continued by suggesting Celtic would then not have won the free-kick that resulted in the Hoops’ equalising goal had Griffiths not been on the pitch.

The Tweet is concluded by suggesting match officials have been subject to “unrelenting persecution” from Celtic for a number of years, and that is why Griffiths was not shown a red card on Sunday.
