Something smells real bad in Scottish football. What smells? The bent people who run it, that is what.
Following some dodgy manoeuvres, Rangers withdrew four of their players prior to this Saturday’s Old Firm game. Nothing unusual in that: teams regularly remove their players from international squads on the basis that they are injured, only for them to miraculously recover before some important game.
What really stinks is that the Scotland physio also happens to be the Rangers physio. And, Scotland’s doctor also happens to be Rangers’ former doctor.
Now, to save any embarrassment about withdrawing key players prior to Saturday’s game, the physio – an ex-Rangers employee, remember – forced, yes forced, a Celtic player to withdraw from the squad even though he was fully fit to participate in the midweek game against Croatia.
Why would he do that? I don’t know precisely, but it seems reasonable to imagine that Barry Robson was forced out of the game in order to implicate Celtic, who refused to withdraw any players from the Scotland camp, in the whole debacle.
How coincidental, then, that on the same day that Rangers’ control over corrupt officials involved in running the national team was exposed a story is conjured up about Celtic fans partaking in sectarian chanting during the Barca-Celtic game last month. Why now?
Further, isn’t it strange that Boruc wants to leave again according to the Scottish media on the cusp of a massive game for Celtic? Yet stories about Rangers in the press are, as far as I can gather, all positive.
