Things are simmering- Chris Sutton on Celtic disconnect
Within the space of one tweet Chris Sutton has summarised the issues simmering barely below the surface at Celtic.
Sitting at the top of the table with two wins out of two against your only significant rival in most situations would be a source of satisfaction in most circumstances.
After 90 plus laboured minutes scraping home against a side that lost 3-0 at home to Partick Thistle last week there was only anger and frustration around Celtic Park following the 1-0 victory over Ross County.
Strange position Celtic find themselves in. Top of the league but there is a sense that things are simmering within a section of the fan base. We know why. Celtic seemed to have a plan with recruitment under Ange. Now it seems really complicated… and it shouldn’t be!

At the match, watching on Celtic TV or following the post match reaction on social media the reaction was almost universal, unusually after the match Brendan Rodgers suggested that the moaning and complaints have almost been constant since he returned to Celtic.
Next up for Celtic is a trip to Aberdeen on Saturday with Sutton ringside for the Pittodrie clash.
The Dons have plenty of troubles of their own with fans calling for the sacking of Barry Robson after yesterday’s defeat away to Hearts left them 19 points behind the Edinburgh side who are in third place in the Premiership table.
