celtic fans title party in Glasgow is
0:09
going ahead on Saturday
0:10
afternoon After Brendan Rogers side
0:13
takes care of St Mirin in Celtic's final
0:15
fixture of the season fans are planning
0:17
to descend on Trongate and the Merchant
0:19
City to celebrate the club's fourth
0:21
title in a row However with an orange
0:24
walk planned on Celtic's trophy day the
0:26
potential for trouble has now ramped up
0:29
Celtic fans have blasted the authorities
0:31
for not allowing an organized party to
0:33
happen in places like Glasgow Green to
0:35
allow a safe celebration to go on and
0:37
for allowing the Orange Order to be
0:38
allowed to march on the day But it seems
0:41
that Police Scotland had a preference on
0:43
where they wanted the Celtic fans to
0:45
celebrate winning the league And it
0:46
might surprise supporters Police
0:49
Scotland wanted an organized event for
0:51
Celtic title party Police Scotland have
0:54
a poor reputation amongst football fans
0:56
in general but Celtic supporters have no
0:59
love for the local
1:01
constabularary But it seems that they
1:03
wanted to organize a fan zone for
1:04
Saturday's celebrations As a police
1:06
Scotland spokesman told the Daily Mail
1:08
"We work closely with a range of
1:10
partners to address concerns and ensure
1:12
appropriate policing plans are in place
1:14
to maintain public safety and minimize
1:16
any disruption to the wider community."
1:18
Just a few days ago Assistant Chief
1:21
Constable Mark Sutherland of Police
1:22
Scotland had said "Our preference was
1:25
for an organized event or fan zone which
1:27
would cause for less disruption reduce
1:29
levels of antisocial behavior and
1:31
improve public safety." Police Scotland
1:34
requested this be considered with our
1:35
partners including Celtic FC and Glasgow
1:38
City Council as part of planning
1:41
discussions Unfortunately this option
1:43
wasn't progressed We're now working on
1:46
the assumption that supporters will
1:48
gather in the Trongate area We'll do all
1:50
we can to deal with antisocial
1:53
behavior I'd urge supporters not to
1:55
gather in large numbers and to respect
1:57
the residents businesses and wider
1:59
public using the city center As it
2:02
stands Celtic fans will descend onto
2:04
Trong Gate in what promises to be a
2:06
party filled with green and white And if
2:09
there is trouble because the authorities
2:11
allowed permission for an orange walk on
2:13
the same day then heads must roll The
2:16
real reason Colin Stevens stood back and
2:18
allowed Hibs Jack Aadale's thuggish
2:20
behavior at Celtic Park After going
2:23
behind one to zero against the run of
2:25
play Celtic won the game with ease as
2:27
Nicholas and Adam Ider ensured the
2:29
hoops went in at halftime on the lead
2:32
Rio Hatate sealed Celtics win against
2:34
Hibs as the game passed by without any
2:36
major
2:37
controversy That was until Hibs defender
2:40
Jack Ayadale acting like a cardboard
2:42
gangster and manhandled Wright in
2:44
front of referee Colin Steven The
2:47
Whistler has been getting criticism from
2:49
some quarters for failing to act when it
2:51
was all unfolding at Celtic Park However
2:53
it appears that there is a reason why
2:55
Steven didn't intervene according to
2:56
former Fifer referee Keith Hackett Keith
2:59
Hackett tells Colin Steven he misread
3:01
Celtic Park but it was not really his
3:04
fault Keith Hackett is more known for
3:07
his Rangers leanings than talking about
3:09
anything to do with Celtic but here he
3:11
shares why Stein didn't intervene when I
3:13
grabbed by the shirt Hacker told
3:16
Football Insider "I think the first
3:18
thing in a situation like that the
3:20
referee's got to be blowing their
3:21
whistle I do criticize the referee on
3:24
this one in that I think walking away
3:26
from it wasn't the thing He ought to
3:28
have read it a bit better He ought to
3:31
have had cognitive skills to be able to
3:33
see that this could
3:34
escalate sometimes I know there's this
3:37
desire to get to the right position for
3:38
the next phase of play but I think he
3:40
ought to have held his position here
3:42
blew his whistle really forcibly because
3:44
that stops people generally and I think
3:46
it could have managed it more
3:48
effectively The danger here is if you're
3:51
a 6'4 in referee it's easy to get
3:53
involved with physicality But the
3:55
problem you've got with that is under
3:56
modern forms of refereeing I'd have
3:58
plowed in there and separated them like
4:00
a boxing referee But under the modern
4:02
game and era of refereeing there is this
4:04
view of blow the whistle view it and
4:06
then take action So it appears the
4:08
interpretation of the rules seems to be
4:10
the issue rather than doing the common
4:12
sense thing and going in to break the
4:13
altercation up But there is more Colin
4:17
Steven done his job but could have been
4:19
more proactive at Celtic Park Hackett
4:22
believes that by the letter of the law
4:24
Stein did the correct thing by booking
4:26
both players However it appears that the
4:29
SFA official could and should have done
4:32
more to prevent this from escalating
4:35
Hackett continues "I think recognizing
4:37
it in the first place before it
4:38
escalates holding your position whistle
4:41
and mouth from the referee I know that
4:43
he'll receive some coaching advice and
4:45
he will have learned from this
4:46
particular incident." But the
4:48
observation is his walked away from it a
4:51
little bit He has his thought that what
4:53
he awarded is good and it hasn't been
4:56
Mark Giddy brightens up Celtic fans day
4:58
with Davidida Ancelotti assistant claim
5:01
for Rangers It's been a great season for
5:04
Celtic fans this year And with the
5:05
recent developments happening over at
5:07
Rangers next season has the potential to
5:09
be even better The new rumor about
5:12
Davidida and Salotti becoming the front
5:14
runner for the vacant Rangers manager
5:16
position was music to the Celtic
5:17
supporters ears The untested and untried
5:20
coach is living off his dad's name and
5:22
has never been a manager in his own
5:24
right Facing up to Brendan Rogers next
5:27
season Ancelotti will have a job on his
5:29
hands to end Celtic's trophy dominance
5:32
But the story gets better Mark Giddy has
5:35
a theory on who could become Ancelotti's
5:38
assistant and it will have Celtic fans
5:39
in tears Duncan Ferguson could help
5:42
David Ancelotti end Celtic's dominance
5:46
Yeah Big Dunk has been tipped as the man
5:48
to help Rangers chase down Celtic and
5:50
end the Pockhead club's dominance of
5:52
Scottish
5:53
football Giddy told the go radio
5:56
football show obviously Shaun Dyk Steven
5:59
Gerard Gary O'Neal So it's all those
6:02
kind of names most of them with Premier
6:05
League experience down the road And I
6:07
just thought if it is Davidida Ancelotti
6:10
and is clearly a name in the frame is
6:12
now ready to go on his own and break the
6:14
ties with his old man I just wonder if
6:16
big Duncan Ferguson would be part of a
6:18
backroom staff They worked together at
6:21
Everton Carlo Ancelotti loved Big Dunk
6:24
Absolutely loved him Big Dunks doing the
6:27
rounds and out promoting his book making
6:29
it clear he wants to get back
6:31
involved Now whether he'd want to be an
6:34
assistant manager I don't know but I
6:37
just wonder with the Rangers connection
6:38
if it is Ancelotti I reckon that Duncan
6:41
Ferguson would be part of the staff
6:43
Duncan Ferguson superb Let's take a look
6:47
at his managerial record and how it
6:49
qualifies him to help take down Celtic
6:52
Duncan Ferguson's managerial stats makes
6:55
him a perfect Rangers appointment for
6:57
Celtic Ferguson has enjoyed two
7:00
permanent posts as a manager in his
7:02
career Once at Forest Green Rovers and
7:05
more recently at Inresess Kaye Thistle
7:08
In 18 games for Forest Green Ferguson
7:11
averaged 0.33 points per game ratio
7:14
after winning just one fixture drawing
7:16
three and losing 14 Forest Green scored
7:19
just eight goals over that spell and
7:21
conceded a whopping 36 At Inesse he
7:25
didn't fare much better In 52 fixtures
7:28
Ferguson's points per game rose to a
7:30
mere 1.27 after losing 18 drawing 18 and
7:34
winning just 16 of all of his fixtures
7:37
Inesse also conceded 66 goals and scored
7:41
68 as they got relegated from the
7:43
Scottish championship last season
7:45
Ferguson for Rangers The verdict for
7:48
many many Celtic fans will be bring it
