CELTIC walked into the SFA hearing for Scott Brown on Friday afternoon with a top Sport QC Nick De Marco who successfully argued the Celtic captain had NO CASE to answer.
The club thought it was necessary to bring the big guns in for this particular hearing where Scott Brown was being cited for a very vague and undescriptive charge.
The midfielder played an outstanding role in Celtic’s 2-1 win over Steven Gerrard’s men in March with the two men sent off on the day and one retrospectively banned for their dealings with Broony.
After the game, the hysteria surrounding Scott Brown celebrating a win for his side along with his windup tactics seen the player get cited by the SFA. Celtic came out at the time saying they would defend their captain strongly against the charge and that’s exactly what they did.
Nick De Marco walked into the SFA meeting with Celtic officials and Brown and got the whole thing thrown out as it should have been.
Taking to social media the QC was ‘delighted’.
