You get an invite to question the manager of Celtic the day before a Europa League tie.
It is Matchday 5, after losing their first two the hoops are going to face a top German team knowing that they must take something from the match to retain a chance of progress in the competition.
The Celtic boss has shown himself to be a character of some depth. Previously he talked about Alfredo di Stefano in the build up to a European match.
He has coached in Australia and Japan, managed his nation at the World Cup Finals and has brought a freshness to media coverage of Scottish football.
With all of those options why would you want to ask a football manager about ticket allocations for a match in four weeks time?
? “I have no desire or any inkling to get involved in ticket allocations – that’s not my brief!”
Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou says he couldn’t be less interested in ticket allocations for the Premier Sports Cup final.

There seems to be a feeling that Celtic have benefitted from the cup final allocation despite a reduction on tickets from the semi-final. Hibs have been given 17,500 tickets after taking 10,000 supporters to the semi-final.
Who knows the thought process of the reporter that decided that the burning issue was about tickets to Hibs supporters that barely attend a match at Easter Road.
So who asked the question? These peepul need to be called out named and shamed every time it happens.
Yes, but what does Ange have to say about the local bus service ?
they have no shame.
Somebody must know who asked the idiotic question of Anga?
Probably from some nerd in Sevco Fan Media. Oh. So that means it’s Chris Jack or some other Hun churnalist.
They won’t stop trying for that wee chink, something misspoken or out of context just so they can manufacture some anti Celtic headlines.
Meanwhile on the Sou’side of the ‘ dear wee Green place’ à Klub is rippin the pish oot ay all of Scottish Football, trading while insolvent and threatening the existence of the whole game in Scotland and has just appointed another so called ‘ high profile’ manager and coaching team and despite posting a ‘ going concern’ caution in last years accounts and needing £7 million to keep the light on till Xmas, not the end of the season Xmas ffs, the SMSM Stenographer team gives it all a body swerve and focuses on Celtic and ticket allocations. Pathetic.
The worst part is that our Board of Tory chancers won’t pull the plug and just ban the lot of them from Celtic Park.
