Clement gave a fascinating insight into the life of a prominent personality in the west of Scotland with an interview last week.
The Disney Corporation could sue for defamation of character if anyone else accuses Scottish football of being Mickey Mouse after the postponement fiasco at Dens Park a couple of Sundays ago.
Rangers manager Philippe Clement did a convincing impression of a man holding our game up to ridicule with a disgusted look on his face when he was interviewed at Dens Park by the TV company who had just had their day’s schedule ripped up and put in the bin. Dodgy pitches and a nonexistent level of communication between clubs, the manager got all of it off his chest for the benefit of the cameras and the wider public.
For once, all of the conspiracy theories about who benefitted most from the late cancellation of the game weren’t the most laughable part of what was a dismal episode. If anything, they dignified a situation that was much funnier than fiction, even if the joke must be wearing thin for the broadcaster paying £25million a year to be immersed in our periodic pantomime.
But the big guy looks like he could handle himself in a crisis and that won’t worry him unduly. Clement looks like he has quickly arrived at two conclusions relative to his short stay in Scotland. One is the love of the club where he has gone to work. The other is a dislike for a lot of what he sees around him in our game. He doesn’t understand VAR and how it operates for handball – but that applies to everyone in the country who does not work for the SFA.
