Rangers fans react with amusement.
Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers sought to clear up the situation over the club’s pitch.
Celtic spent £1.5 million on the playing surface, which is now rotting.
This has come much to the amusement of fans of Celtic’s Old Firm rivals Rangers.
Rodgers told The Mail: “It’s a slight disease in the surface, which has just been unfortunate.”
Rodgers confirmed the Celtic ground staff are doping everything within their power to ensure the pitch remains of a high standard for the rest of the season.
Fans of rivals Rangers had some fun with the developments, mocking Celtic…
On a practical level, the pitch issue is one to watch between now and the end of the season if it deteriorates.
Celtic will not want the surface to be a distraction or impact their style of football.
The title race currently looks like it will be tight, and even the slightest advantage one way or another could tip it.
