BREAKING NEWS : Celtic call in big-hitting lawyer from London to fight SFA on Brendan Rodgers ban due to ……..
BRENDAN RODGERS will fight the SFA at Hampden tomorrow – backed by London legal big-hitter Nick De Marco.
The Celtic boss is facing a two-game touchline ban for allegedly accusing VAR John Beaton of ‘incompetence.’
If found guilty, Rodgers would be forced to watch from the stand for the upcoming league clashes with Livingston and Rangers at Ibrox.
But Celts have ‘lawyered up’ for the hearing scheduled for lunchtime tomorrow.
And it’s understood experienced KC barrister De Marco has been brought in to lead Rodgers’ defence.
The SFA will have their own legal experts in place before ruling on Rodgers’ fate.
After a high boot incident, Yang Hyun-jun received a straight red card, which infuriated the Hoops boss.
The Celtics manager was infuriated with the penalty call that was made against Tomoki Iwata.
VAR Beaton checked both flashpoints.
“I try to respect decisions and give the benefit of the doubt,” stated Rodgers.
