Just like his big buddie on BBC Scotland, Ewan Murray just can’t help tweeting about Celtic.
The Guardian’s golf correspondent doesn’t attract much attention discussing the fairways and bunkers but is smart enough to know that constantly sniping about Celtic and in particular Celtic supporters gives him a minor profile.
While the Scottish media celebrated Kyle Lafferty’s return from suspension (what a character the big man is, eh?) some Celtic fans at Hampden thought differently. After the match Murray was deeply upset at the abuse aimed at his former Hearts hero- and he was off.
He was so outraged by the reception given to Lafferty that he felt the need to call up another buddie, Graham Spiers to discuss his outrage on a podcast.
Next up is Gordon Strachan- a boyhood Hibbie.
Strachan is employed by Dundee and picked up a payment from Boyle Sport to discuss Celtic for The Scottish Sun.
Poor Murray, it was too much for him. It seems that a visit to the City of Discovery in May 1986 has left the deepest of scars. The Guardian report is always welcome in the Media section at Celtic Park.
Serious question as you are a Hearts supporter Ewan, does it bother you that Andy Halliday is employed by Hearts but regularly bumps his gums about Rangers on national radio? https://t.co/ps4gpDvE4J

Dear oh dear Ewan selective hearing again. Where were you when we needed comment and forensic scrutiny of the song book on the 2nd January. Lafferty is an odious character, but of course “ex- hertz”, personally Id rather ignore him & his eastern star jumps.

Don’t respond to him.
Let him vent in a vacuum.
He’s an attention seeker.
Unionjack Murray in his true baloo underskants along with the other lot referee’s media sfa spfl police playing up to there knees just say to them God bless you that look on there face is priceless.
Sure they celebrated the loving cup down in bennett’s but the action was in the toilets drink as much as ye want and you win a baloo balloon or or a ftp joyboy hat and they can play surfing in the urinals with song I’ve got a rash with a sash or instead of the flute they can play pan pipes oot there jacksies playing the bouncy bouncy and bohemian rhapsody .
A good night was had by all emptyheeds and Murray the BRit ended up in the western hospital after being arrested for talking and drinking piss while discriminating the police officer by calling the officer a fenian bufty the police officer replied your only good for the Beeno and dandy yer team is shite you’ll never win feck all you small tiny minded simple minded not fit for purpose you lying fecking rat said officer Murphy.
