Celtic address bottle incident at Rangers that allegedly left physio needing stitches

Celtic chief executive Michael Nicholson says there was no CCTV evidence to show how a physio at the Hoops found himself allegedly hit with a bottle during a game away at Rangers.

Goalkeeper Joe Hart also spotted a shard of glass on the pitch inside his penalty box during the derby match last season that was marred by objects being thrown during the game. A staffer at the Scottish Premiership champions then shared a photo on social media of an apparent cut on his head from the alleged incident.

With a sly dig at Rangers who were not named on his short address, Nicholson says 'the club in question' claimed there were no cameras in the vicinity to capture what happened on that day. Ange Postecoglou's men came from behind to win 2-1 on that day on their way to title glory but it's now been revisited at the Celtic AGM.
