Hamilton have hit back at Neil Lennon following his "no social distancing" claim.
The Celtic manager earlier questioned the coronavirus protocols being followed by both Accies and St Johnstone during an irate press conference.
Lennon said: “Show me anyone who is doing the right things.
“When we played Hibs we had to bus six players in two buses because we were told now that is the way it has to be.
“Three people on a 52 seater bus. That has not been going on throughout the season.
“We have been going to away grounds where we are cramped in like sardines.
“Boxing Day at Hamilton there was no social distancing there, there was no physical distancing.
“It is inconsistent. Protocols of different clubs are inconsistent.
“We go to St Johnstone all crammed into a little dressing room. Inconsistent.
“As soon as Celtic are deemed to do something wrong then bang. You are all wanting blood. It is absolutely scandalous.”
Accies have now responded in a statement and confirmed they are satisfied by the protocols in place at the Fountain of Youth Stadium.
It read: “It is not our policy to comment on statements made by other clubs.
"We are content that we meet the most stringent standards of Covid protocols for all people visiting our stadium.”
