David Healy's Gazza-style flute stunt causes outrage
Published 00:00 21/07/08 By
Fulham striker and self-confessed Rangers fan David Healy sparked fury among Celtic suppporters by playing an imaginary flute during Saturday's friendly.
The sectarian gesture echoed the inflammatory antics of Paul Gascoigne, who twice pretended to be a flute-playing loyalist while at Rangers.
Healy's agent Steve Hughes described the Northern Ireland star's conduct as "good natured."
But anti-sectarianism charity Nil by Mouth called on both clubs to take action.
One Celtic supporter said: "Some fans were absolutely furious."
Celtic lost the game 3-1.
