Celtic fans have raged at the board after their new away kit was released, with some fans stating they will boycott buying the shirt.

This comes due to the club's lack of activity in the transfer window as concerns amongst supporters continue to rise.

Brendan Rodgers' side are set to compete in the Champions League group stages next season, but a lack of incoming signings has fans fearing the worst.

Celtic have suffered embarrassing European campaigns in back-to-back seasons, and the demand for new players to help compete effectively are stronger than ever.

As a result, when the new away kit was released, social media was flooded with fans calling for the club to stop asking them to spend their money while no transfers are taking place.

Celtic fans rage at board as calls to 'boycott' emerge after new kit release

Frustrations towards the board have been rising since the transfer window opened, and anger at the continued lack of activity is beginning to boil over.

Some supporters went as far as to suggest the fans should "boycott" the new kit until some movement is made in the transfer market.

Oh look - we want more of your money as the bank balance is not high enough to trigger our bonuses yet

Shower of tramps.

The kits are printed - they will be going nowhere - if only ALL would boycott them until they ✍️ players and then buy merch - it’s not rocket science https://t.co/HInbpF23Ik pic.twitter.com/lmB34Fb3Jq

The majority, meanwhile, insisted that they would not purchase the shirt until the club begins to show more ambition, labelling it "a joke" and "ridiculous".

Will you please behave like a proper football club. Buy some players. If the board won’t spend why should anybody else?

You won't see another penny out of me until you prove to us that the football side is more important than the bank balance #Sacktheboard
