Ange Postecoglou says the Celtic and Rangers staff made more mistakes than Kevin Clancy as he condemned abuse of the referee.
The experienced official has had personal details leaked online alongside a barrage of disgusting messages sent his way in the wake of last weekend's derby, which he officiated as Celtic won the Premiership match 3-2. He ruled out an Alfredo Morelos goal for the Parkhead visitors over a push on Alistair Johnston and that decision has been heavily scrutinised in its aftermath.
Postecoglou says the abuse directed at Clancy should serve as a reminder over how games are looked at, as he explained: "It's concerning for any person. We shouldn't even be talking about it. We all understand we work in a public space and with that comes scrutiny, but that should begin and end within the professions we work in, not go into our personal lives. And particularly with officials because, for the most part, we have clubs or supporter bases we would like to think would go into bat for us in situations like this.
