Phil Clement is still raking over last season’s Scottish Cup Final with a claim that his side scored the opening goal!
Celtic won the match 1-0, the ONLY goal was scored by Adam Idah when he popped in the rebound after Super Jack Butland flapped at a shot from Paulo Bernardo in the 88th minute.
Feeding the wildest conspiracies of the Gullible & Deluded seems to be part of the job description for Clement as he deflects away from his own failings after losing three trophies to Celtic during 2024.
Abdallah Sima did have the ball in the net but only after Nicky Raskin fouled Joe Hart on the goal-line. During the first half Nick Walsh and John Beaton ignored two penalty box fouls on Kyogo Furuhashi.
December’s League Cup Final defeat was apparently the talk of Europe after a few contacts at Monaco messaged him after the Hampden defeat.
Most of the football world were watching the Manchester Derby on December 15 but with a full set of losers medals to his name Clement revealed on Friday that he still ‘feels that penalty in his stomach’.
Others still feel the Ridvan Yilmaz penalty in their heart while Cyriel Dessers was hiding behind Connor Barron.
Previewing today’s match against Queens Park Clement looked back to Hampden in May:
It’s still there because you didn’t win it yet. So how long did it stay? It was a game where we were really close. We scored the opening goal also it was disallowed. We still can have discussions around that but it’s finished and then you need to switch the button in your head and to look forward and be ready for a pre-season and a new season and everything.
For us as staff or players, we cannot live a life as a fan to be days or weeks sick and stay sick of it and to be focused on that because then you’re not ready for the next assignment that you have. So, of course, it stays in the back of your head and in your body.
During the January Transfer Window Clement was only able to bring in Rafael Fernandes on loan, his club couldn’t afford to buy Lyall Cameron from Dundee despite being committed to a Development fee at the end of the season.
Only Todd Cantwell and Fabio Silva from the team that started the Scottish Cup Final are no longer at the club. Joe Hart, Matt O’Riley and Kyogo Furuhashi are no longer at Celtic.

This guy talks more mince than me ( Oh no he doesn’t …shouts the wife…)….He is a total Muppet…hope he stays with them for years to come…Comedy gold.
Is The Waffle talking about the same cup final that saw Ben Davies’ blatantly obvious hand ball in the box (penalty to Celtic) ignored by the officials…the incident our club didn’t compile a dossier about and demand answers for,despite the whole of world football witnessing it and subsequently talking about for a fortnight?
What a truly desperate,barrel-scraping attempt to instill a sense of injustice,and motivation,in your team.
P.s…does anyone know what the Flemish or Wallon is for fannybaws?
It’s vaginatesticles in Walloon I think.
The sevco manager is SPFL version of Criag Brown,remember when Scotland lost games when he was in charge,aye but we got more corner kicks than them or we got more free kicks than them,and we still didn’t win,a bit like sevco.
At Christmas they were running a campaign to force Clement out and get McInnes in
Now they’re rewriting what happened in the Scottish cup final to back him up
Wee Scotty in the daily Record midweek ,was lauding big Pip for maybe being right all along and everyone else was wrong about the Belgian . Issuing a ” how dare you ” to all of Clement’s detractors including “flipping the bird ” to his boss at the rag – big Inaction ! He , of course is a Uber staunch , loyal scoop , who would have said Super Swally should have been head horticulturist on Gardener’s World !
Even allowing for English not being his first language, that is some amount of p15h he is talking there. That’s why he reminds me of Clouseau – talking delusional nonsense with that accent.
Can’t afford to let him go,and of course he won’t walk and write off his cash,so he has to keep up an endless stream of pish in an attempt to pacify the bears.Seems to work on them tbf
So getting beat 1-0 and saying we scored first….they won 118 trophies and we were told by everyone connected to “the rangers” “TV and written press” included. that they were the “most successful” club in the “world” none of which is true….I don’t think maths is their strong point …. they have done this for years and now clemOnt is joining in…… CELTIC win 119 trophies and finally we get the truth from all the liars…we are “not” the most successful club in the world… But we knew that anyway …it still feels great though…ha ha ha
Indeed Tam !
More Lies from Liebrox that they were the most successful club in the world when they weren’t the most successful Club in Scotland since 2012 and even then it was through unadulterated serial cheating…
And Celtic still had a far higher trophy winning average which is undoubtedly the TRUE measure of such stats…
At least Celtic are keeping it to Scotland which it truly and actually is !
I have no fucking idea what he just said there. Best to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool than to open it and prove beyond all doubt that you are.
Just another sad ,deluded loser coach at SEVCO,it,s normal practice from anyone there ,they can kick players up an down park and expect to and do get away with it,fans assault visiting players with coins and other weapons but SFA do nothing as the brothers take care of them , just sad sad serial LOSERS
You called it spot on Kevin…
LOSERS of the highest order today !!!
Oh dear just as the papers were starting to get back behind him
Brendan has broken big lurch. Apparently left back Yilmaz has always been a winger. over 30 shots on goal……eh
The WHOLE world will have been watching today.
