John Paul Taylor has revealed that the Glasgow Times are holding an investigation into an offensive portrayal of Neil Lennon.
The Tweet was later deleted but not before several screen captures had been made with Celtic informed of the content which was more in keeping with an extreme Message Board than a responsible publisher.
Yesterday the Glasgow Times, the sister publication to The Herald, were invited in on the Zoom Conference call with Neil Lennon.

Some Celtic fans have been highly critical of the way that the club handles the media with the tension obvious in Lennon’s comments yesterday.
Andy Walker was the only pundit named in a wide-ranging response to media criticism of Celtic on the back of their training trip to Dubai.
Tomorrow night Celtic travel to face Livingston with Sky Sports and Radio Scotland entitled to pre-match interviews with the managers as part of their broadcasting contracts.
