Sky Sports issued an on-air apology after Celtic fans booed the Remembrance Sunday minute\u2019s silence.<\/p>\n

All football matches across the country have taken a minute\u2019s silence before kick-off this weekend to mark the poignant occasion. That was also the case at Celtic Park, before Brendan Rodgers\u2019 side faced Aberdeen in their Scottish Premiership clash.<\/p>\n

Both sets of players stood on opposite sides of the centre circle, arm-in-arm for the traditional moment of quiet reflection. However, it was interrupted by a small number of supporters in the stands.<\/p>\n

Before the referee started the silence by blowing his whistle, a tannoy announced to the fans that there would be a moment of quiet reflection. This was then greeted with jeers and murmurs of discontent by some sections of the supporters.<\/p>\n

As soon as the silence began, jeers and whistles were heard coming from the stands. While most clubs held a minute\u2019s silence, the one at Parkhead was cut short after around 30 seconds.<\/p>\n

Lead commentator Ian Crooker said on air: \u201cApologies if you were offended, some people could just not stay quiet." It is not the first time small sections of supporters chose not to respect a minute\u2019s silence at a Celtic match. <\/p>\n

When Celtic faced Rangers in the Old Firm Derby on January 2, a minute\u2019s silence was held to remember the 66 supporters who died at the 1971 Ibrox Disaster. The silence was also intended as a period of reflection to remember Celtic icon Frank McGarvey, Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI and Brazil legend Pele. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The silence was cut short after 34 seconds as members of the fans could be heard jeering. It also prompted many supporters to react angrily to the interruption.<\/p>\n
