Philippe Clement defends referees amid historic Rangers vs Celtic conspiracy theories.
That's the message from Philippe Clement as he gears his Rangers side up for the Old Firm derby with Celtic this weekend.Just last month the official was branded 'incompetent' by Brendan Rodgers in an outburst following his side's 2-0 loss to Hearts.
He told Sky Sports:"I want my players to only be busy with the football and with our football, not with the rest. Not with the referees, not with the opponents, not with the crowds or noise around. We need to be focused on ourselves and that's what we need to do. Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
