It appears people in Scotland couldn’t care less about the coronation of Charles III.
Football heavyweights Celtic are into the Scottish Cup final, but the fans are making major headlines this week around the globe after they collectively took a shot at King Charles’ coronation.
Chants of “You can shove your coronation up your ass” rung out after Celtic claimed a 1-0 win over Rangers.
Outspoken broadcaster Piers Morgan lashed out at the chants and branded them as anti-monarchist.
“Well, utterly charming of course, as ever, from Celtic fans,” Morgan said.
“But that’s what they’ve always been like towards our monarchy, and I have a similar view of Celtic fans, so all’s fair in love and war.
“All those who desire can get involved, all those who don’t can keep their big gobs shut or change the channel, or go and watch Celtic.”
This isn’t the first time the fans have lashed out at the royal family.

Just over a week after the death of Queen Elizabeth II, Celtic fans were urged to be respectful for a minute of applause before a match against St Mirren at St Mirren Park. They decided to boo loudly while chanting “If you hate the Royal Family clap your hands”
In the meantime, King Charles III and his wife Queen Camilla were crowned on Saturday in a historic ceremony at Westminster Abbey in London.
The 74-year-old, who is the oldest son of the late Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, was crowned during Britain’s first coronation in 70 years.
Charles immediately ascended to the throne following the death of his mother Queen Elizabeth II, which happened in September 2022.
Prince William, the Prince of Wales, is the oldest son of King Charles and the late Princess Diana. The 40-year-old is first in line to the throne.
