Livingston have confirmed that ex-Rangers forward Kenny Miller has agreed to exit the club after just two months in charge – and a section of Celtic fans have been having a field day on Twitter in response to the news.
The Scottish Premiership club confirmed on their official website on Monday that there was a disagreement over the 38-year-old’s role at Almondvale, with Livi wanting him to hang up his boots and change his player-manager role into being a full-time manager instead.
Miller has now exited the club, and some Celtic fans are loving the chance to fire shots at their former player, who has also had three spells at Ibrox.
This is Futbol has rounded up some of the best tweets:

Heard he went berserk and was found arguing with himself in the changing room 5 hours after their game last weekend.

OPINION
Miller won’t be wanting to read these comments in a hurry. The former Scotland international has unsurprisingly failed at Livingston. It was a weird decision for them to try and hire him in the first place after his lack of professionalism in his final months at Ibrox. The 38-year-old had a bust-up with Graeme Murty after Rangers’ loss to Celtic at Hampden Park, and that has prompted the funniest tweet of the bunch from the Celtic fans, saying that he was arguing with himself at Livi. Results haven’t been great for him in the last couple of weeks. His form on the pitch hasn’t been great either so you can see why the bosses at Almondvale wanted him to just be the full-time manager instead. The ex-Wolves man is kidding himself if he still thinks he can perform in Scotland’s top-flight and it will be a struggle for him to get a manager’s job, or playing role, anywhere in the country now.
