sjc Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Celtic would have been far better served if they had made a short statement when the allegation was made saying that after speaking to Tonev they would support him through the process.....then a dignified silence. Same with the appeal. Now that he has been found guilty the answer is not to continue to deny the findings nor necessarily should it be to ostricise the player either......Tonev has been found guilty of making a racist comment which doesn't fundamentally make him an out & out racist (he may well be for all I know). Celtic & Tonev should have accepted the decision then apologised to Logan & Aberdeen then making Tonev attend various cultural awareness/racial awareness classes to not only see the error of his ways but correct them. Nobody would have had grounds to criticise Celtic had they done this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Left Wing Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Was Tonev done under the same rules whereby you can be banned for 2 games for spitting, when you haven't actually spat ? Just asking ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H_B Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Sorry but making racist comments does unquestionably make you a racist. Its a wide spectrum but he's on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H_B Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Given their history, its no surprise that a racist would feel comfortable at Celtic FC and that their fans would be defensive of racists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Was Tonev done under the same rules whereby you can be banned for 2 games for spitting, when you haven't actually spat ? Just asking Procedurally no. He was allowed to appeal. On appeal the ban was upheld. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
