Tony Hamilton quickly deleted a sarcastic tweet about Celtic fans protesting outside the stadium following the 2-0 Betfred Cup defeat from Ross County.

The Chief Executive of the Celtic Foundation responded to a tweet from Chris McLaughlin of BBC Scotland to news that police had been called to deal with the fans unhappy at the result and running of the club.

With emotions running high it wasn’t really the time for a club employee to be making glib, dismissive comments about the emotions of supporters.

Hamilton used to have a key role in Celtic’s in-house media operations before switching his expertise to head up the club’s charitable work.

Worldwide fund-raising initiatives have been launched with Hamilton working with fans in North America to set up an annual dinner which was attended by Rod Stewart and Neil Lennon in October 2019.
