Did you see his gesture?
Are you victim blaming?
Huh?
There is clear evidence of the slit throat gesture. Morelos is the aggressor here.

I asked the question.
Thatâs been explained. Itâs apparently an innocuous gesture in South America.
Whatâs the status of the police investigation into the alleged Glasgow Celtic racial abuse?
Itâs not an innocuous gesture. You are showing yourself as culturally ignorant again. Youâre nothing more than a racist dinosaur.
Itâs a fabricated allegation by the aggressor.
If they find proof of racist comments then the guilty party would be banned from the Club. Proper order.
If they fail to find evidence to support the claim, then it is arguably a ploy from Rangers to cover their player behaviour. That was a remarkable gesture to make knowing the occasion is on Live Tv.
Time will tell. Itâs funny you condone the gesture.
Glasgow Rangers have clarified that it is an innocuous gesture in South America.
Rangers believe Alfredo Morelos was âracially abusedâ during Sundayâs match against Celtic.
âWe would expect now that all measures will be taken to identify and deal with those responsible,â said a Rangers spokesperson.
Celtic say they have âreceived no reports of any racial abuse but would fully investigate any should these be brought to our attentionâ.
And Police Scotland say they have received no complaints.
The Ibrox sideâs victory moved them to within two points of Premiership leaders Celtic, with a game in hand to play in the new year.
Colombia international Morelos was pictured drawing a hand across his neck in an apparent throat-cutting gesture as he left the field following his dismissal.
Celtic said they were âaware of the gestures made by the player towards Celtic supportersâ.
But Rangers had said in an earlier statement on their website it was âa gesture used commonly throughout South America to indicate quite simply that something - in this case, the match - is finishedâ.
Youâre taking cultural lessons from Glasgow Rangers?
You dinosaur.
Glasgow Celtic fans donât seem to be a very tolerant lot. They were in the news as well recently for rounding on and abusing one of their own for supporting the Conservative and Unionist Party in the General Election.
Peter seems to have evidence but no one only him has seen it soooâŚ
Iâd imagine this footage is in the hands of the Strathclyde police now and matters will take their course. A prudent approach as you would expect from an experienced and heavyweight journalist like Peter Smith. Loose comment could jeopardise any potential prosecution or indeed the right to due process for any alleged racists.
Sectarian or racist? They are conflicting allegations without any substance.
Sweep sweep.
Glasgow Celtic are under investigation for racial abuse. There would appear to be some substance in these allegations. A highly respected and experienced journalist has said that he has seen footage of Alfredo Morelos on the receiving end of racial and sectarian abuse.
Itâs important that we donât rush to judgement though. The Glasgow Celtic club and their fans do enjoy the presumption of innocence.
Having attended the game yesterday if the copper who was videoing the Rangers fans ever sends the footage he took to Peter A Smith he will have a years work of articles.

There is no investigation at the moment as the police have received no complaint.
That didnât stop u jumping to conclusions re Rudiger.
I heard it over the TV.
