@spunkphone had an idea: “Dunno why we don’t do similar to what Bayern Munich fans have done and protest the broken hoops...”
@Redbhoy1888 stated: “Broken hoops on a Celtic shirt should always be a no-no. Overall the worst home shirt in years. I had hoped the leak wasn’t legit.”
@jedmarr8892 said: “Not 100 per cent keen on the new kit as the hoops and broken, but I’m sure I’ll like it soon enough. It’s a Celtic top at the end of the day.”
