Celtic fan convicted of punching 3 police horses

A former colleague mine was one of the cops at this, said it was some of the worse behaviour he had seen at football and he's quite long in the tooth. Apparently Celtic fans were indiscriminately lobbing bottles at kids and old men. Best fans in the world, yeah right!
 
Yup it’s the Tall Cranes tadger. Helped orchestrate an attack on Rangers fans at the Osijek game and rumoured to be involved in an incident where Celtic fans attacked fans outside the wee rangers club.

His pub mysteriously went on fire, long thought to be an insurance job.

A scumbag who deserves to be in jail
 
A football yob was convicted today of punching three police horses during a riot before a cup match.

At Glasgow Sheriff Court Kevin McGuire, 36, was found guilty of “causing unnecessary suffering” to police horses Nerston, Oban and Glasgow in January last year, before kick-off in a Scottish Cup clash between Celtic and Airdrie.

Celtic fan McGuire, who was previously banned from every football ground in the UK, was described as a "prime mover" in the violence orchestrated against police.

McGuire, who was represented by lawyer Michael McKeown, claimed he was just an innocent bystander.

Sheriff John McCormick told McGuire: “You weren't an innocent bystander that had been caught up.
"You were a prime mover in the disruption at Celtic Park.

"The police were reacting proportionally to what was coming to them by the group of Celtic supporters.

"This was an extremely serious matter being part of a group that assaulted police by throwing missiles, spitting at them and punching police horses and their riders.

"You have a record which includes a breach of the peace with a football aggravation and were the subject of a football banning order.”

Sergeant Mark Stewart, who was at the match with his horse Oban, described the incident outside Celtic Park to prosecutor Alistair Knox as the worst riot he had ever seen.

Sgt Stewart said: “When I got there, Airdrie fans were being blocked from getting into the ground by Celtic fans.

“There were families trying to get in and bricks and missiles getting flung as well as spitting and throwing lit cigarettes.

“It was very aggressive and this was the worst I riot had ever seen.”

The officer told the court that McGuire was "directing others" during the violent incident and said he saw McGuire attack the three police horses outside the ground.

He added: “I asked him to move and he punched my horse Oban on the muzzle which caused him to react.
“It was a full blown punch and he also punched police horse Glasgow on the face.”
Sgt Stewart said another police horse Nerston was also punched later on.

McGuire, a cafe owner from Cardonald, was also convicted of assaulting two police officers and acting in a threatening and abusive manner.

Sheriff McCormick deferred sentence on McGuire for background reports and remanded him in custody.
does anyone know what cafe he 'owns'?

Oh Yes I remember it being covered intensively by the mhedia at the time. Wasn't off the front pages or the tv for days on end.

Wasn't it.................???..........................Someone?... surely.......................!!!!???
 
Guys a complete scumbag!!

He was on twitter last week, having digs about the Ibrox disaster.
For me. Anyone who has a joke about that deserves to be leathered. These utter clowns think it’s funny. It’s not as funny as getting your james hunt kicked in for Joking about it, fucking scumbag.
Its not big and it’s not clever
 
Since the Tall Cranes went on fire, the Govan Emerald have taken to drinking in the Fairfield Workmans club.
 
Scum of the earth, the mhedia in Scotland are an absolute disgrace, we have police officers telling us it’s some of the worst rioting they had seen, woman and children having bottles and bricks lobbed at them, mounted police being attacked, horses being punched. Yet the column inches devoted to this were minuscule.
