Ally McCoist couldn’t contain his hurt and pain as he watched Celtic show the form of champions to beat Hamilton 4-1 today.
The victory takes Neil Lennon’s side seven points clear at the top of the table with the pressure mounting on Steven Gerrard to get his side back to winning ways.
Leigh Griffiths return to the Celtic side has been a major bonus for Neil Lennon with the former Hibs striker contributing goals and bringing out the best in Odsonne Edouard.
It was Griffiths that won Celtic the 35th minute free kick that Edouard equalised from but a couple of minutes earlier there was an incident that upset the fun loving BT Sport pundit.
@btsportfootball if ally mccoist is adamant that Griffiths should’ve been sent off and keeps citing morelos as an example, does ally remember what this was?

Griffiths squared up to Alex Gogic after he had tangled with Sam Woods. As he tried to free himself the Hamilton player rolled towards Griffiths who had to take evasive action.
Referee Nick Walsh booked Griffiths and Gogic, with his Morelos claim McCoist only made himself sound both bitter and ridiculous.
After being drawn against Celtic in the semi final of the 2014/15 League Cup McCoist opted to go on gardening leave from the manager’s job at Ibrox.
