QUOTE OF THE DAY

-

‘SFA are right to go for O’Neill. He has experience, good rapport with players and wouldn’t be a media embarrassm­ent like Strachan’

Spurs. I don’t think the club can afford Derek McInnes and Sherwood would be a better option anyway.”

Celtic’s agm was a tame affair and punters seemed more worried about the team bus than anything else.

However, said: “Did we really have a Celtic agm with no one at the top table claiming they’d be playing in England in a couple of years? I’m stunned.”

said: “The first two questions asked at Celtic’s agm were both Rangers related. We can only hope this obsession with the world’s most successful football club one day comes to an end for these unfortunat­e Celts.”

emailed: “Celtic’s success is down to Fergus McCann, Dermot Desmond, Peter Lawwell and Brendan Rogers who all believed in their club as just that and not as a money-making venture.

“Rangers supporters, the blame lies with your board, not with the players or the manager.”

Some folk are still shocked at the abuse aimed at Dean Shiels and have criticised Falkirk boss Paul Hartley for claiming the eight-match ban handed to his player Kevin O’Hara was too harsh.

said: “Hartley should realise the severity of his player’s actions and accept the punishment. If it was one of his own kids receiving that kind of abuse how would he feel?”

emailed: “Credit to Shiels for overcoming his disability to perform at the highest level of the Scottish game – only to have to face sickening abuse players in a lower league.

“To then have people like caller Stewart Bell dismiss it as ‘an inappropri­ate comment’ shows we still have a way to go in football – and society – in how we treat those with disabiliti­es.

“God forbid Bell, or any of his family, ever suffers a disability and has to endure abuse or bullying at work, only for it to be dismissed as ‘sticks and stones.’” CALL THE HOTLINE TODAY FROM 11 TILL 12 NOON on: 0141 309 3306 or email us: hotline@dailyrecor­d.co.uk
