Club 1872 Statement on Racist Abuse of Alfredo Morelos Dear Member Club 1872 is aware of the torrent of agenda driven and at times xenophobic coverage of incidents involving Alfredo Morelos following Rangers' victory in the Old Firm game on 29th December. We are working to catalogue these incidents and will make relevant submissions to the Independent Press Standards Organisation, and any other relevant bodies, once we have examined them over the coming days. We also note the disturbing silence from many politicians and commentators who have been quick to comment on similar incidents in the past. One instance which we can confirm we will be taking forward is an article by Ewing Grahame which appeared in the Scottish Sun quoting ‘sports psychologist’ Tom Lucas. The article itself was full of, at best, xenophobic comments about Alfredo Morelos and South American people but what is of additional concern is that it appears Mr Lucas is not in fact a sports psychologist at all. The title is protected under legislation covering health professionals. It is a criminal offence for a person to use a designated title to which they are not entitled. Mr Lucas does not appear on the publicly searchable HCPC register to use such a title. As well as submitting this information to IPSO we will also be submitting a complaint to HCPC regarding Mr Lucas’ use of the title. It will be for them to decide what the appropriate action is. It is indicative of the hysteria surrounding the player that this rubbish ever made it through the editorial process and into a Scottish newspaper. More broadly, there is a growing and increasingly concerning trend in Scotland to ignore, excuse and in some cases encourage the racist abuse which is dished out to Alfredo Morelos. There are multiple videos circulating on social media recording this racist abuse from Celtic supporters and Celtic Football Club’s response, in which they appear to blame the player for this racism, is beneath contempt. That they have now issued another statement attempting to shift the focus from their fans' racism is in keeping with their well documented refusal to take any responsibility for the offences committed by those associated with their club. We will update members and the wider Rangers support on our efforts in this area early in the New Year. In the meantime, we wish Alfredo all the best with his fantastic charitable efforts in Colombia, which do so much to help the community in his hometown. We wish all our members a Happy New Year! Club 1872

Brown does seem to make contact with Tavernier’s head/face.

He shows a yellow card twice. Do you mean he showed it twice to Katic ? Just had another look, Clancy shows the card to I assume Katic, he then shows it again slightly turned. Could be he just lost the plot!

Whoever it was it’s not recorded anywhere, strange.

At the penalty Clancy shows a yellow card to Katic then shows a 2nd to ? Anyone know who? Brown?

You’re correct, can you move it to general football.

Can someone tell me which celtic players were yellow carded on Sunday?

http://www.coverangersfc.com/news/club-statement/ CLUB STATEMENT 30/12/2019 Cove Rangers FC is aware of an image which is circulating relating to one of our players at the recent Celtic v Rangers match. As a club we do not condone such behaviour and expect all of our players to represent our club in the correct manner at all times. Fraser Aird's contract with the club was due to expire at the start of January and as a result he will be leaving the club with immediate effect.

Cannot vouch for the accuracy of this.

This is when the club should come out all guns blazing about the standard of officiating we have to endure, after beating them in their own midden. Where did the extra extra time come from?

Kris Boyd sums it up perfectly “men against boys”.

Let’s hope we don’t have to call on them.

Cannot believe they used Hampden for their inspiration when designing new stadia.
