Bhoys aghast as Brown red card appeal rejected

CELTIC last night continued their spat with the Scottish Football Association by blasting the “amazing” decision to reject their appeal against Scott Brown’s Old Firm dismissal.

Referee Dougie McDonald upheld his own decision to show Scotland midfielder Brown a straight red card for his clash with Kyle Lafferty during Celtic’s late 1-0 defeat by Rangers on Sunday.

Brown will now miss a total of three matches through suspension, including Sunday’s Clydesdale Bank Premier League trip to Falkirk.
