SCOTT BROWN and Stuart Armstrong were visibly upset after watching Partick Thistle player Gary Fraser absolutely hammer the ball from close range into the Celtic fans.
The Fir Hill player cut a frustrated figure at Celtic Park but with five minutes of the game to go, the player lashed out, kicking the ball into the stands which immediately evoked a reaction from the Celtic Captain and Armstrong who can be seen having words with Fraser.
Gary Fraser of @ThistleTweet idiotically leathering the ball into the main stand at Celtic park.
Thankfully no severe injury reported.
Important to remember Gary Fraser has previously served a 9 game suspension for violent conduct in an u-20s game.
Clearly intentional. Crazy. pic.twitter.com/2Lr1JS0bzU

Celtic ran out 2-0 winners after in a rather low key affair at Celtic Park. The Bhoys have gone 5 points clear at the top of the league in the process.
Brendan Rodgers spoke after the match about the incident and gave Fraser the benefit of the doubt, suggesting he may have only meant to hit the advertising boards.
Surely this clown can not get away with just a yellow card! If that had hit a child on the face it would have killed them! This guy has got to be taken too task , and the SFA must not hide behind the old “the ref booked him” so no more action can be taken! He has got to be “done” , and his club should be leading the way! What a clown, or was it academy of just hating Celtic, as that is what it looked like!.
That’s bad play that clown he is
Actually, he hit a woman in the face, apparently, the police took a statement from her.
Delighted with KT and jonny hayes well done bhoys. No excuses! He endangered spectators, this kind of behaviour has to be stamped out. Hail Hail
the SFA wont do NaDa,They arent fit for purpose.Waste of time even mentioning Them.Just like,That New Club,IRRELEVANT!!!!
The benefit of doubt may be given from Brendan, but be that as it may, I would suggest that the natural reaction from a player who didn’t mean it would be to demonstrate his sorrow openly and directly to the fans instead of walking away.
He did not do that and he did not try to explain his actions to Broony or Armstrong or to the referee.
His actions demonstrate either nastiness or stupidity. He certainly comes across as quite an unpleasant character. I hope the Jags have the decency to have a word behind the scenes.
Knobhead wants charging with ABH the prick
