Mod Post: A reminder to folks that trying to bait supporters by posting alternate names for a football club may lead to a yellow card. Folk are welcome to post in any superthread they wish to, but nobody is free to use superthreads or this forum in general as somewhere to try and bait/flame/troll other posters.

RANGERS chief Charles Green and manager Ally McCoist were bombarded with hundreds of vile calls — after their mobile numbers were posted online by a Celtic troll. Hoops yob Stuart Kennedy, 35, tweeted the private details — then used his Twitter account to urge others to hound the pair. Photographer Kennedy, 35, targeted his club’s Old Firm rivals as he watched Celts beat Helsingborgs in a Champions League clash at a packed Parkhead on Wednesday. He claimed the numbers were being passed among tens of thousands of fellow fans in the crowd of 50,000. In his first tweet he posted an 11-digit mobile number and wrote: “No joke, the belfast bhoys have been giving them it tight all day! haha.” Soon after he posted a second message, adding: “Someone sent that as a text to me haha dont know if it is s**t. Let me know lol.” A Rangers source said: “It’s shocking. Ally and Charles were given dogs abuse all day. Some of it was seriously abusive.” Last night, Kennedy was facing a police probe. At his semi-detached home in a quiet suburb of Carfin, Lanarkshire, the dad desperately tried to play down his actions. He told The Scottish Sun he had no idea that the numbers he posted belonged to McCoist and Green. Visibly shaking, Kennedy, explained: “It was just a retweet. I didn’t think anything of it. “Someone sent me it as a text and, like you would with a joke, I just thought that I would post it on. “Honestly, I thought they were fake numbers — if I could say sorry to Ally I would.” Kennedy suggested that he too has been the subject of sectarian abuse since he posted the numbers of the two Ibrox bigwigs. And he claimed he has had to hand his mobile over to Strathclyde Police as a result. He said: “Since I posted the numbers I’ve taken them down. “But I have been subjected to quite a few phone calls of a sectarian nature.” A spokesman for Rangers described Kennedy’s actions as “grossly irresponsible” and insisted action had been taken to ensure Green and McCoist, below, were not subject to further abuse. He added: “The numbers were made public on the internet, we believe, following the theft of a mobile phone.” Strathclyde Police had no record of Kennedy complaining he too was subject to abuse on his phone. A spokeswoman for the force said inquiries are continuing.

Rangers have been caught in a red tape wrangle that could ruin their chances of significantly strengthening their squad before the transfer window closes tonight. An SFL rule, in place for at least a decade, prevents its member clubs from registering more than 22 players aged over 21 in a bid to encourage youth development throughout the lower leagues. To add to Ibrox woes, up to five senior players, including Steven Naismith, Steven Whittaker, Allan McGregor and Kyle Lafferty, are still officially registered to the club even though they’ve moved. Rangers have kept them on their books as they try to gain support from FIFA to win transfer fees for them. That could restrict McCoist’s plans to add up to six senior players to his pool before the club is banned from transfer dealings for a year. He hopes to sign David Templeton, German Michael Fink and Swedish striker Daniel Larsson but could be denied by the rules

Although they have 11 fewer league titles than their eternal rivals Rangers, these are happy days for the green and white half of Scotland’s biggest city. For economic reasons, their protestant rivals have been forced to disband and are now starting all over again in the Scottish Third Division. With Rangers out of the way for at least the next three years, Celtic look set to dominate the domestic championship like never before, which means manager Neil Lennon will be able to focus almost his entire attention on his club’s European campaign. Applying their typically physical but direct approach, their strengths include Wanyama in midfield and Greek international Samaras up front.
