http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-edinburgh-east-fife-15059353 Three football fans are due to appear in court in connection with allegations of sectarianism at a match in Fife. The men were arrested at Dunfermline's ground, East End Park, as the home team played Rangers on Saturday. The Glasgow club won 4-0. The men, aged 19, 20 and 31, were arrested as part of an ongoing operation by Fife Constabulary to tackle football-related hate crime. The men were in the East Stand of the stadium occupied by Rangers supporters. They are expected to appear at Dunfermline Sheriff Court later.
Dunfermline are going to post their names on their website also. Wonder if they were hanging outside any nightclubs on Saturday? <shame>
Tut, Tut, Tut part 2... http://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/scotsol/homepage/news/3835610/Ledley-targeted-in-front-of-dad.html CELTIC star Joe Ledley told fans how he was caught up in a terrifying bust-up after being attacked while out on the town with his dad. The "badly shaken" Hoops favourite was targeted by three thugs outside a nightclub in Glasgow city centre. And Welsh international Ledley, 24, later left a cryptic message on his Twitter page telling followers: "Just had a good fight with rangera." Last night a Celtic source described how yobs launched the assault outside the Sugar Cube nightspot on Saturday night. The insider said: "Joe was on a night out with his dad when two or three guys got involved with him. "One of them threw a punch at Joe but it was broken up pretty quickly. He is shaken but thankfully not really injured. "It seems to have been broken up quite quickly and I don't think there were many injuries. "We don't know why it happened yet, but Joe is a quiet guy and is there is no way he would be the aggressor." Another reveller who saw the attack described Ledley's ordeal on Facebook. They wrote: "Just saw a man getting attacked with his dad. Disgusted. "I helped them escape and then his dad asked, 'Do you know who my son is?'. I said no, and he said he is Joe Ledley and he plays for Celtic." The Parkhead midfielder had been enjoying a night out with 54-year-old dad Chris and pals after playing a starring role for his club.
How the **** did the ref not see that? He's looking straight at it! ps The Pie Man said it was accidental. Yeah, sure it was Ally
Did you see Davie Weir on Sportscene last night? "Aye, it looks bad but he was just trying to shake him off" McLean was dancing around it too - "We're not trying to make out that Naismith is a serial killer (after a load of he did this well, he did that well)" but, again, the worst he could say in front of Davie was "It looks bad" It's a ****ing shocker.
Dermott Gallagher ex ref reviewing the weekend big decisions , called it scandalous and admitted the ref was in the perfect position to send him off .Calls for a three game ban to stop it happenning again . In Scotland we all know different rules apply to Rangers and he will be let off with a one token match ban.
Davie Weir's other cracker, in tandem with "shaking him off", was to claim it "wasn't malicious"!!!!! F***ing goon.
Aye because all Celtic fan are angels, what an absolute utter twat you are. http://ifyouknowtheirhistory.blogspot.com/search?updated-min=2011-01-01T00%3A00%3A00-08%3A00&updated-max=2012-01-01T00%3A00%3A00-08%3A00&max-results=50 On a Facebook page dedicated to Islam Feruz, hundreds of posts have been aimed at the youngster by disgruntled Celtic fans angered at his apparent dishonouring of Tommy Burns. One such disgruntled Celtic fan, John Paul Monaghan stated: âYa dirty wee c***, I hope you have a bad injury and never play fitbaw again ya wee p***k for everything the club has done for you and your family you go and sign for that shower of scumbags, consider yourself no longer part of the celtic family as a player or a fan, greedy wee f***ing p***k, HAIL HAIL.â While another, Kevin Coll foamed at the mouth, saying: âHope u break ur leg and end up back in somalia ****ing scum bag!!â The late Tommy Burns helped lobby government officials in a bid to prevent Feruz and his family being deported back to war-torn Somalia after they fled to the UK in 2001. After Burnsâ death the Somali striker made his first ever senior outing for Celtic in the Tommy Burnsâ memorial game in 2009, where he gave the Parkhead crowd glimpses of the talent that Burns though very highly of. However, as we reported exclusively last month, Feruz was lured by the bright lights and riches of the English game and signed for Chelsea on a reported £2,500 per week wage, despite being eligible to sign professional terms with Celtic when he turned 16 â this month â the 16-year-old decided upon a move to Stamford Bridge where he will have to wait one more year to sign pro-terms with the English side. Feruzâs agent Rui Alves confirmed the deal earlier today saying: âIt is a massive step for Islam and for Scottish football. Now for him personally it is the beginning of a major adventure, he will have to work, work and work and raise his own level. Playing for a top club like Chelsea, where the major word in the squad is quality, will oblige him to show his own quality and deliver his best and convince the staff that he is more than just a major prospect.â âHe is looking forward to starting his career with Chelsea, but he would love to thank Celtic for all they did for him and his parents, he is Scottish and will one day score goals for Scotland.â With Celtic set to receive a minimal compensation fee, this has enraged some of the clubs fans further. Peter Mitchell fumed: âMoney grabbing c*** I hope your family are proud of u where would they be if it wasnt for celtic and tommy burns ya ungrateful wee d**k.â While Kev Kerr raged: âYouâre a wee d******d Islam. Tommy Burns saved you from cowering from soldiers in a mudhut to give you a chance and you piss all over that mans grave. Iâll never cheer you in Scotlands colours you turncoat p***k.â The level of abuse aimed at the 16-year-old footballer mirrors that aimed at Irish international Liam Miller who enraged the Celtic fans for choosing the riches of Manchester United over life at Celtic Park. However the abuse has intensified from comments like âJudas, traitor and turncoatâ to derogatory and racist abuse. One hate-filled individual, Lynne Williams, said on Feruz moving to Chelsea: âThis has confirmed one thing â you canât trust Africans.â Shay Kerins stated: âYour a scum bag, we fought for you to keep you in the country! wish you stayed in somalia, and get r***d by some pirate!â Tommy Burns, the man dubbed Mr Celtic, would be turning in his grave over the abuse that his former protegé was receiving at the hands of those so-called Celtic fans, who he adored. A Celtic spokesperson was unavailable for comment. Well well, isn't that a surprise
Aww a lot of comfort blankets coming out here now isn't there. You keep telling yourselves you are the good guys and Rangers are that nasty big bully who have always been more succesful. 7 Points Clear Lenny out by Xmas, Mind The Gap
