Not really sure how I feel about this to be honest.
I can’t stand Alex Rae, but I don’t wish him harm. But when he recalls this story I’m thinking to myself, ‘WTF were your thinking?’. Then I remembered it’s Alex Rae.
The guy’s incapable of critical thinking.
And this was never more evident than the tale he recounts here.
He tells a story on The Millwall Podcast where he recounts the time he was in the Celtic hospitality end when Oldco Rangers beat us 3-0 to win the league at Celtic Park.
Quite why he thought that was a good idea is beyond me, but it’s Alex Rae, “At that stage I’m 29, I’m established playing at Sunderland in the English Premiership so people know who you are.
“I’m in the Celtic end and as I go in you’ve got guys like Pierre Van Hooijdonk, Dominic Matteo and the two rows in front of me are Celtic reserves. Alan Stubbs and Jackie McNamara who weren’t playing that day, then I’m in the third row.
“People behind me are all suited and booted and I thought ‘F*****g lovely, I’m safe in here’. The guy taps me behind my back and says ‘You’re in the wrong f*****g end’. I’m thinking f**k, do I make a beeline for the exit before they attack me but he does it again so I had to confront this guy.
“I turn around and the guy has a suit on and I said ‘See if you don’t shut the f**k up, I’m going to leather you, you c**t’. The guy’s wife turns round and told him to leave me alone but he just said he didn’t give a f**k and that I was an orange b*****d.
“That was the only time I’ve been at a football match and thought I’m not getting out of here alive.”
Even he explains why it was stupid. A high profile EPL player is a well known *Rangers fan goes to a Glasgow Derby in the Celtic end.
What a bellend.
