Celtic boss Lennon accuses Scottish Government of double standards over Rangers pair Jones and Edmundson Robert Grieve 4 Nov 2020, 22:30 Updated: 4 Nov 2020, 23:16 NEIL LENNON has accused the Scottish Government of double standards — for failing to hammer Rangers revellers Jordan Jones and George Edmundson. The two Ibrox fringe players broke Covid-19 restrictions by hosting a house party last Sunday night. They were hit with an on-the-spot police fine and immediately suspended by Gers pending an internal club investigation. That saw Nicola Sturgeon’s officials praise Gers’ response, by saying: “We commend Rangers for taking such swift and decisive action in this instance, to protect the rest of their squad and wider public.” But Lennon slammed that reaction, given the First Minister shamed Celtic’s Boli Bolingoli when he went AWOL in August. He said: “I can’t comment on what the Rangers boys did. “What I can comment on is the reaction from the government, which I find bewildering considering the way they treated us after the Bolingoli incident. “There seems to be double standards as far as we’re concerned. “You’d need to ask the government about that. The comments from their spokesperson, I found strange to say the least. “We as a club did and I’m sure our supporters did as well. I’m not happy about it. We were thrown under the bus. “We were subjected to, ‘Privileged footballers, yellow card’ and blah, blah, blah. “We have been treated in one way and other clubs have been treated another by the government. That’s unacceptable from our point of view.” Celtic defender Jeremie Frimpong, 19, invited a friend to jet over to Scotland from America to stay with him. But did NOT break Covid protocols. Lennon added: “Jerry didn’t break any rules. We were aware of it a few weeks ago. And since then he has had about half a dozen tests where he has been negative. “There is pressure enough playing football. Having to be restricted in your movements can be difficult for them. “But it’s something we have to adhere to until things start to get better.” https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/6241832/celtic-lennon-governent-double-standards-rangers-jones-edmundson/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter#Echobox=1604529061

THE cash-strapped SFA are facing major job losses in a bid to cut costs. SunSport Online can reveal Hampden staff have been warned a devastating redundancy cull is on its way. The news was given to them earlier this week with chief executive Ian Maxwell insisting the Association’s finances has left them with no option but to wield the axe. In total the SFA plan to make around 18 full-time employees redundant in a desperate restructuring process. The news has emerged as the SFA battle to claw back a £4.5million shortfall in expected earnings due to the Covid-19 pandemic. With no gate money being raked in from Scotland matches or Scottish Cup fixtures there is a massive hole in the accounts. The SFA have already taken a £5m government Business Interruption Loan to get by. But that must be repaid and chief executive Maxwell is now leading a dramatic cost-cutting exercise. The issue was discussed at a board meeting last Friday with staff given the news on a number of Zoom calls this week. There will now be a consultation period before further decisions are made with specific individuals. The SFA runs seven Performance Schools up and down the country but it’s unlikely they’ll be shut. The latest intake of kids were guaranteed a four-year programme when they started in August and that’s expected to be honoured. However, office staff at Hampden and people within the technical department are under threat. Performance Director Malky Mackay is one high earner who could be at risk of losing his job. The former Cardiff and Norwich boss has been in his role for the last four years and has a major say in the day to day running of the behind-the-scenes coaching operation. However, his position looks to be under serious threat. https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/6240051/sfa-jobs-losses-malky-mackay/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter#Echobox=1604502975
