Some Celtic fans have been fuming at the latest post that journalist Keith Jackson recently relayed on Twitter.
Jackson tweeted about his latest article for the Daily Record recently. He shared the post on Twitter, asking about how Scottish football can survive the pandemic.
On seeing this tweet, many Celtic fans slammed Jackson. They made their negative opinions about him very clear.
By getting real journalists in this country. Not ones who continuously pander to one club.

Well with a certain club trying to destroy it because they are not use to getting their own way we are all intrigued to see this so call evidence. ?

The immediate question surely is where is the evidence?

You spelled rangers wrong

The ‘squabbles’ referenced in Jackson’s article involve Rangers’ dispute with the SPFL, which has seen the Gers reveal that they have ‘evidence’ surrounding the behaviour of the governing body during the process of the resolution that saw the lower tiers of Scottish football end their respective seasons.
The article compared the situation in Scotland to that in England, focusing on the ‘complexities’ of the whole situation. He revealed that the game’s governing bodies will have a conference call with the Scottish government ‘after weeks of tantrums, poisonous accusations and petty arguments’.
What do we think?
Celtic fans seem pretty angry with Jackson, presuming that he’s biased towards Rangers. They clearly feel that the Rangers-led accusations against the SPFL are the only things holding up due process here. With an EGM on the near horizon and Rangers claiming to be withholding evidence, perhaps push will come to shove sooner or later.
