Firhill Wrongs And Windsor Park Rights?

Nobody says that releasing smoke bombs at a football game is right. We all know that sooner or later we’re going to get into bother if we keep setting them off.

In fact, it’s not acceptable. And it’s something I’m sure Celtic will crack down this season big time.

And when you’ve got zealots like The Scotsman who’s reporters are on some remit to stir as much trouble for Celtic Football Club, then we have to be very careful.

The rag from the east did however forget to take the same approach when they reported on the Govan Mob’s friendly at Windsor Park against Linfield yesterday.

They didn’t even have to report from the game, Sky Sports showed enough evidence to question why Rankers, who are supposed to be against sectarianism were party to an Orange Flute Band walking round the park whilst their manager Sneaky McCoist was being interviewed.

Of course Mr Salmond and his cronies can’t legislate in the north of Ireland, but the club could have made a stance and declined to take part in this show of sectarianism.

But once again the Scottish media have washed over the story. The very same media who tried their damnedest to bring Lenny into a row over the stunt in Australia by some of the Scotland’s Shame’s Aussie crew.

All this means for Celtic, Neil Lennon and the support is another season of media bias and bigoted abuse. No surprise there then!
