'Comedy gold', 'Tragic' - Celtic fans react on Twitter to official Rangers statement
Celtic fans on social media have reacted with gales of hilarity after Rangers confirmed the suspension of Kenny Miller and Lee Wallace.
The news was announced on the Ibrox club’s official Twitter page a short time ago, with the duo suspended after an alleged confrontation with manager Graeme Murty’s after the Hoops 4-0 Scottish Cup win at Hampden on Sunday.
The pair have been suspended whilst the Ibrox club conducts an investigation into the matter.
Rangers can confirm two players, Lee Wallace and Kenny Miller, have this morning been suspended pending investigation into a team related incident.
The club will make no further comment until this investigation has been completed.

Anything to get the wage bill down, bet Wallace wishes that he'd walked away when he had a chance. Junior club's are better run than them

The Hoops fans will have a chance to remind the bitter rivals of this incident when the teams meet for the final time this season on the 29th of April, in a match which could see the Bhoys crowned champions depending on results this weekend.
