Guest stfu Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Within the last few weeks the mhedia have been in their glory pontificating to all who would listen about the disgraceful scenes at recent "Old Firm" games and their own reasons for what caused them. Needless to say enemy number one was "The Rangers", their fans, players and club officials etc. We were told before the game that Strathclyde's finest had spoken to both teams before the game and threatened all concerned with the full weight of the law should anyone step out of line. In a game that was always going to be contentious what was the biggest changing factor from the previous two games that helped keep a lid on things? For a start the yahoos were not running around the pitch like deranged idiots trying to wind up every Rangers player that they could. There was no intimidation from their Management team attempting to get our players into trouble. So was the police warning enough to calm things down? Or is it just a coincidence that there was one person missing from their bench on Sunday and things didn't "kick off"? I think not. I expect normal service to resume when the mentally disturbed "victim" returns from his ban. Whenever the SFA Celtic supporters club deem that to be. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,529 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 A very valid point mate... Even in the stand you seen the guy lose the plot more than once. Ever the victim! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maineflyer 0 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Well said stfu, there's a clue there for some "very high ranking police officer" except we all know that's a political rather than a policing role nowadays. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

calscot 0 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 The media are following an opposing agenda where they only lost because he was in the stand. Seems irrelevant to me - if you need you manager on the touchline to win, then he should learn to behave. it's like getting an important player sent off in the semi for violent conduct and then complaining he didn't play in the final. The premise is embarrassing. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest john_gers Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Real reason was because Lemmon wasnt in the dugout 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
