Swearing at someone for pointing out the truth?

 

Classy.

I didn't realise that using the word 'shit' on here would trigger somebody; I do apologise.

Monday jury: Should Flanagan's yellow have been a red?

Rangers defender Jon Flanagan has been cleared of further punishment after elbowing Celtic captain Scott Brown in Sunday's Old Firm derby.

Flanagan, 26, was booked after the incident in the Ibrox side's 2-0 win but was charged after a three-man panel decided it was a red-card offence. 

Rangers said they would "vigorously defend" Flanagan and, at a hearing on Thursday, the case was dismissed.

It means he is available for Sunday's game at Kilmarnock.

After the notice of complaint was issued on Tuesday, Rangers issued a statement in which they cited a separate incident from the derby involving Jermain Defoe and Celtic's Jozo Simunovic.

"We cannot understand how these two incidents could be studied yet only one be considered worthy of punishment," the statement read.

"It seems as if Rangers' players are being held to a different code of conduct from players at other clubs."

No shit its an embarrassment for Scottish Football. It's been one since it was conceived but, no surprises, Celtic only moan about it when their kangaroo court somehow can't deliver what they want. This was always one that a good lawyer ought to have been able to drive a coach and horses through. Glad they have.
