Ange Postecoglou insists he couldn’t care less about Robbie Neilson’s Parkhead decapitation rant as he warned any Scottish Cup mind games from the Hearts boss are a waste of time.
The Celtic boss refused to bite on his Jambos opposite number’s moan about the failure to show Alexandro Bernabei a red card in Wednesday’s Premiership clash. Postecoglou will square up with Neilson again at Tynecastle in the Scottish Cup today amid suggestions the Jambos gaffer is trying to ramp up pressure on officials by claiming rivals need to get decapitated to see a red card Parkhead.
But Postecoglou said: “I don’t know how many games I’ve managed but I’ve never won one with a mind game. I don’t even know what mind games are. I don’t buy all that sort of stuff. The game of football has 11 players who start and a few more that come one and you try to win it that way – that’s it.”
