This is a disgrace. Celtic CEO Peter Lawwell - not Interim manager John Kennedy - should be involved in this. They have colluded with their pals at the SFA (they have a new Compliance officer who is a Rangers supporter) to make sure that their right back is available to play in the Scottish Cup tie against Celtic next week. Well done John Kennedy in speaking out.
A week ago I joked with the Celtic FC Women player Jodie Bartle about a refereeing decision that went against her in a game against theRangers. She'd scored but the referee blew his whistle after the ball was in the net to 'award' Celtic a penalty. This happened in stoppage time with the game goalless. The spot kick was scored by another player - Summer Green - so Bartle missed out in her first goal for the club. I explained to the English defender than in Scotland this is known as an "Honest Mistake".
Celtic chopped that bit from their media conference video on You Tube.
Rather than covering up the SFA cheating Celtic should be shining a light in it. Call it out for what it is and clean up the game once and for all.

There is a balance to be sought when you feel a sense of injustice. Say nothing at all, leave it to others to comment on your behalf, and the chances are the message is entirely ignored. You are seen
