Celtic captain Callum McGregor has opened up about an uncomfortable moment during a recent match, revealing that a section of supporters were chanting something that left him deeply uneasy throughout the game.
The experienced midfielder admitted that while passionate support is part of football, certain lines should never be crossed. According to reports, the chant in question was aimed at individuals connected to the opposition and contained language that many would consider inappropriate and offensive.
McGregor is believed to have felt that the lyrics went beyond normal rivalry banter and stepped into territory that could damage the club’s reputation. “It’s not okay,” he reportedly said, stressing that football should be competitive but respectful.
Sources close to the situation suggest the chant referenced sensitive off-field matters rather than focusing purely on football. While emotions can run high in big matches, especially in intense Scottish rivalries, the Celtic skipper made it clear that standards must be upheld.
The club is now expected to review the incident, with calls for fans to keep their backing positive and focused on supporting the team rather than targeting individuals in a harmful way.
