Graeme Souness claims Celtic have a major problem after anti-monarchy banners and chant

Graeme Souness believes Celitc have "a major problem" after a section of their supporters displayed anti-monarchy banners ahead of the Hoops' 2-0 loss to St Mirren over the weekend.

Chants of "if you hate the Royal Family clap your hands" could be heard from the away end in Paisley prior to Sunday's clash, while banners with the same words were unveiled by a section of Celtic fans.

Souness has labelled the Scottish champions “the unacceptable face of football in Scotland” over the banners and chanting and claims the anti-monarch actions of a section of their support will put off potential major sponsors, reports The Daily Record.
