Here’s what their supporters had to say about the result on social media:

@_RH67: “For a no nonsense defender Shane Duffy has been involved in a fair amount of nonsense.”

@aidanfellowes67: “The fact Elyounoussi even has his phone out on the bench sums up the situation. Players don’t respect the manager and aren’t playing for him, get him out while there’s still time. Love him or hate him Rodgers brought a professionalism to the club that’s now non existent.”

@JamesJMcNulty1: “Lennon's last game, no.really board, this should be lennys last game , the camel has broke, tactically stupid, how can be beat sevco, if we cant beat this mob, utterly disgraceful and downright embarrassing!”

@lil_cathlico: “I think the fireworks are scaring the Celtic players.”

@DylanMcGowan20: “Would rather Paul the Tim at centre half than big f****** hopeless Duffy. Hope use have all had a good entertaining Thursday. Catch ye after.”

@Donstheman2003: “Its incredible to think about just how far we have fallen in such a short amount of time. From spectacular Euro nights in Italy to utter f****** dog s*** at home. It's the same players and same manager as well which is what really baffles me.”

@Markamura1988: “Enough messing about now! Lennon needs to go, the team has chucked it! Deila and Mowbray would never survive a result like that especially at home, so it should apply to Lennon as well! Shane Duffy is a walking disaster and who knows where Eddy has gone!”

@boldboy1978: “Utter shambles of a club at present, top to bottom. Few performances glossing over major problems. And even those weren’t in any way good enough, and certainly not sustained over 90mins. Time to go.”

@rpmccafferty: "We’re just reliving Deila’s last season all over again, wonder if we’ll leave it too late to change manager this time round.

@Swavinho: “Callum McGregor just tore the a*** out the manager’s formation and tactics.”

@aboutceltic: “Callum McGregor escapes criticism too often as well by the way, he's way off it.”
