David Tanner is the latest C-lister to criticise the celebrations of Celtic fans after their side were presented with the SPFL Premiership trophy.

The attitude of the former Sky Sports anchorman to Celtic is well documented as he reports on success and trophies through gritted teeth.

Thousands of fans headed to the Trongate to sing, chant, drink and enjoy the atmosphere following a fantastic title win in which Celtic set the pace from day one.

There were a couple of regrettable isolated incidents but no park benches were smashed, no statues damaged with the Riot Police given a night off.

Typical of his type Tanner decided to baggage it all up with the events at George Square in 2021 when Ibrox fans twice rioted while the emergency services and Police Force was at full stretch due to the pandemic. Glasgow was in Tier 4 Lockdown restrictions.

After Celtic’s victory in the Scottish Cup semi-final last month a near tearful Tanner was pictured hanging around his colleagues interviewing Callum McGregor.

Tanner now covers Scottish football for TalkSPORT.

    Did Tanner say anything AT THE TIME, about the riot, destruction and wanton vandalism in George Square, by the zombies.

    If not, why not?

  • Stewart says:

    Tanner is just one of pack that has been painting all things celtic in a bad light,, the run up to game all last week in the rags an airwaves an telly trying all sorts to detract from the game, and it’s same this week,, seems peeps don’t want us to celabrate winning,,

  • Dinger says:

    Tanner that’s all he’s worth

  • Tony B says:

    There were more arrests at the Fascist Walk in Govan the same day with many fewer in attendance.

    The clean up was assisted by many Celtic fans, in stark contrast to the mess left in many parts of the UK by “loyal” groupies of the new King and his bidey in Queen thingy.

  • Robert Downey says:

    Tanner is nothing but a bitter, bitter third rate journalist, who cannot hide his disdain for Glasgow Celtic.
    He cannot do a news item about Celtic without showing his absolute disgust.
    This man should not be involved in broadcasting of any
    description if it means he can’t be objective.
