# Celtic: Fans go into meltdown over SPFL suspension as football withdrawal mounts

**Responding to a tweet by [celticrumours](https://twitter.com/shaunmcd21/status/1243239612723724288?s=21), plenty of supporters have been expressing their pain due to missing out on much-needed football action – describing the experience as ‘[torture](https://twitter.com/gordon_tony/status/1243218722594213888)‘ and ‘[brutal](https://twitter.com/shaunmcd21/status/1243239612723724288?s=21)‘.**

Celtic, who are currently 13 points clear at the top of the [Premiership](https://spfl.co.uk/league/premiership/table), were seemingly on the way to collecting another league title before football’s untimely suspension due to recent events. Neil Lennon’s side had lost just [two](https://spfl.co.uk/league/premiership/table) matches all campaign, scoring [89 goals and conceding just 19](https://spfl.co.uk/league/premiership/table) in the league.

Ahead of their second-placed Old Firm rivals, the Hoops were enjoying another dominant season before the SPFL were forced to suspend all footballing action due to pressing concerns currently sweeping the nation. As a result, plenty of Hoops, whilst taking the situation seriously, have been missing watching their side week-in week-out – taking to social media and voicing their concerns over when they could return.

Here’s what they had to say on Twitter surrounding their side’s situation…
