Some Celtic fans have made their displeasure for Andy Gray clear after he gave comments about the Premiership season.
Gray was recently talking on a show at BeIn Sport (via the Scottish Sun) about the current season and the lead Celtic have over Rangers in the title race. In the interview, he said that the title race in Scotland is too ‘close to call’ and the title shouldn’t be handed to Celtic because of their 13-point lead.
The Scottish Sun later relayed these comments on Twitter. This left many Celtic fans fuming and they made their opinions about Gray clear.
Someone should explain how ‘counting’ works, and show him how large a number 13 is as a lead in a football league…

“Too close to call” ? Obviously he’s not been paying attention ?

The deluded are terrified of Celtic getting awarded the title and also terrified of actually having to play the games . Tinpot mentality of an 8 year old tribute act

Can Celtic still lose the Premiership title?
Yes, we can
No chance, Gray is clueless
I’m not reading this article but if he actually said “too close to call” with a 13 point gap, he’s a clown. Well he’s a clown anyway.

What do we think?
While 13-point lead is certainly a big one, but it is important to keep in mind that Rangers have a game in hand on the Hoops. Both the teams are yet to play the Old Firm at Ibrox.
This proves that the season can still turn around if Rangers do win the game in hand and Celtic lose the Old Firm. In that sense, Gray is right.
