Celtic fans troll Steven Gerrard with banner during draw with Livingston

Celtic's title party has been delayed

Celtic fans are certainly enjoying how wound up Steven Gerrard has been all week.

Last weekend’s Old Firm derby defeat to Celtic gave the Rangers manager a lot to talk about during his press conferences throughout the week, with plenty of complaints about the several flashpoints in the match.

Gerrard spent his time in front of the media explaining why his club was appealing against Ryan Kent’s SFA charge for a clash with Scott Brown and shortly thereafter, the Gers boss was hit with a charge of his own for comments he made to the referee after last Sunday’s defeat.

While Celtic’s title party was delayed on Saturday due to a 0-0 draw with Livingston, supporters were in great form and brought along a banner to Celtic Park aimed at Gerrard.

‘Get Well Soon, Stevie G,’ read the banner which didn’t go unnoticed by those in attendance.

Celtic manager Neil Lennon also took the opportunity to treat himself to a little dig at Gerrard in the wake of the latest Old Firm clash.

“The only rational thing Steven Gerrard has said this week is that they played the best team in the country on Sunday,” Lennon said.

“We should be talking about our form since the turn of the year. The players play the game the right way and within the laws of the game.”
