Celtic manager bombarded with Rangers conspiracies by rival fan media

As Celtic unveiled their new manager Ange Postecoglou to the club’s leading fan media, it should’ve been highly predictable that Rangers might form part of the conversation.

After all – and whilst there is plenty of professional Celtic fan media out there – some of their support’s most prominent bloggers are no strangers to the Rangers.

But no-one – I repeated absolutely no-one – could’ve predicted the depths of moonhowlery which were plunged of a Friday afternoon as the Celtic manager was unveiled.

Aussie coach Ange Postecoglou knows he’s coming into a wounded animal in Celtic but unless he’s been scouting some of the more niche fan media prior to joining it’s hard to imagine he’ll know just how wounded.

But the ex-Yokohama F. Marinos boss got a flavour for the fanatic as he fielded questions – or rather statements – on everything from refereeing conspiracies to financial irregularities to fit and proper persons and SFA governance.

It wasn’t just one either; Postecoglou looked genuinely gobsmacked as two separate outlets, given the opportunity to ask him anything, asked about Rangers, without actually saying Rangers.

It is a sight to behold and shows just how nuclear an impact last season had on these guys – check out both questions below:

First up is this gentleman, who talks up a refereeing conspiracy before pleading with Big Ange – who looks like he wants the walls to cave in at this point – not to pull a Tony Mowbray.

Whatever the heck that means.
