Russian Futurists,

From one end of the scale to the other; supposedly, 59427 people attended the football match which pitched Celtic versus Rangers to decide who would win three meaningless points. Rangers defeated Celtic by one goal to zero.

If Celtic had played to their optimum standard, they would have defeated Rangers, Stuart Dougal, the SFA and the government. As it was, Celtic looked tired and with the referee’s performance having been pre-determined weeks ago, they never stood a chance. I didn’t feel let down after the game, it was just one of the dates that have to be fulfilled en route to the championship being awarded. I was still able to feel privileged, because I understood what had happened and was not fazed by it.

On arrival home, the local sectarian bigot chanted, “We are the people.”, in our direction. He is the people indeed – a small town person with a small town mentality - and he will be the death of us all.
