The 24-year-old Scotland international was charged and cautioned with an offence under the Offensive Behaviour at Football and Threatening Communications Act. The charge relates to an incident at a pub in Edinburgh last year. A Police Scotland spokesman said: "We can confirm that a 24-year-old man has been arrested and charged."

RawB93 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Innocent until proven guilty. Balance of probabilities. Possibly Paul Paton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real Saints Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Ah yes, the Rudi Skacel chant. There's no need for Celtic to make a statement as they have already made their views on racism very clear. As they have said many times before, racism has no place in football and as a Club which has been open to all ever since its formation in 1888, Celtic abhors racism of any kind. Clearly, Leigh Griffiths continues to have their full support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topcat(The most tip top) Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 What is the situation with Skacel and how was he a "refugee"? I think the Hibs fans reasoning (and I use that word broadly) was that he's an immigrant from Eastern Europe so he must be an asylum seeker.

It doesnt really make sense as he was never a refugee as Czech Republic is hardly a country on its arse? If he was from Kosovo etc then maybe but it just makes the supporters who sing this look silly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Most guys that spend their hard earned cash going along to the football would do anything to have the skill and opportunity to be a professional footballer. Sadly there are still some that have that skill and opportunity who manage to screw it up by being dickheads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might not choose here though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well i would just like to know why its offensive as he was never a refugee, i was assuming he was from somewhere that was torn by poverty but i don't think he was!
