The last time Stuart Kettlewell pitched up at Parkhead his side sparked a violent protest outside the ground. Now the Motherwell boss is rocking up in Glasgow’s East End with the task of spoiling the party.
The former Ross County manager had to dodge flying fences on the way out when the Staggies shocked Celtic in the League Cup when supporters were locked out of the ground during covid. The incredible County win was lost in the wash as fan frustration at poor results boiled over and resulted in pitch forks outside Parkhead calling for manager Neil Lennon’s head.
Kettlewell sensed the tension in the air back then but the scene couldn’t be much more different as he attempts another stunning success with Motherwell tomorrow. Celtic fans are expecting confetti to be thrown rather than missiles and Kettlewell knows the job in hand could be much harder with Ange Postecoglou's men flying.
