Several Celtic supporters have taken to social media to react to the club reminiscing at a memorable goal celebration involving Scott Brown. 

Brown curled home a stunning goal from distance against arch-rivals Rangers in a clash at Ibrox back in 2011, which sparked jubilant scenes from the club’s fans.

Instead of celebrating with the club’s supporters though, Brown opted to celebrate in front of former Rangers forward El Hadji Diouf with outstretched arms, which certainly went down well with the Celtic Park faithful at the time.

It’s been a frustrating season for Brown and his Celtic team-mates this term though, with the Bhoys currently sat second in the Scottish Premiership table, and an eye-opening 23 points adrift of league-leaders Rangers after 25 matches in this year’s campaign.

Is Broony's time up at Celtic?

YES!

YES!

NO!

NO!

The 35-year-old has made 28 appearances in all competitions this season, and will be hoping to see their side make it back-to-back wins in the Scottish Premiership, when they return to action on Saturday against Motherwell.

Neil Lennon’s side thrashed Kilmarnock 4-0 in their most recent match, and will be eager to finish this year’s campaign, with the league title slipping away from them rapidly.

Plenty of the Celtic Park faithful reacted to the club’s social post on the celebration from Brown.

Take a look at the best of the reaction from Twitter below…
