Scottish Premiership: Scott Brown hits out at Celtic team-mates after defeat

Celtic captain Scott Brown believes the time has come for some of his team-mates to take responsibility after the 1-0 defeat to Hamilton.

Ali Crawford scored the only goal of the game four minutes after the interval to give Accies their first win at Celtic Park in 76 years and move them to the top of the Scottish Premiership.

Celtic sit in sixth place in the table having lost 10 points already this season and an angry Brown was in no mood to go easy on his team-mates, while taking a share of the blame himself.

Brown believes too many Celtic players are passing the buck and relying on the likes of Kris Commons to bail them out when the team is struggling.

"We missed a few chances but at the end we didn't deserve anything to be perfectly honest,” Brown said.

"We didn't play as well as we should have. We didn't have enough movement and there weren't enough people wanting the ball.

"People were just hiding and it was disappointing to see and play in.

"We tried to play but Hamilton pressed us high up the pitch and teams don't do that at Celtic Park. We should be pressing teams high up the park and it hasn't happened.

"I don't do getting beat. I came to Celtic to win games and we are not winning games and performing just now and I don't know why that is.

"We are just not doing it as a team and as individuals. I take my share of the blame as well in there. I am not laying the blame at everybody else because we are all in this together as a team.

"We are just waiting for somebody like Kris to score a wonder goal from 30 yards and then we are all happy but that doesn't happen every week.

"At the end of the day, we weren't good enough."

Hoops boss Ronny Deila has endured a haphazard start to the league campaign, but he attempted to take positives from the latest setback.

"I'm not worried at all. I think we're progressing,” Deila said.

"When you have 10 to 15 chances, you have played quite well. We got the full-backs more into the attack, we got more set-plays and more crosses.

"With so many chances, you should win the game, no question. But of course you need to put the ball in the net, that is what football is about.
