McInnes hit out at Celtic fans sectarian chants and asked if the SFA were listening.He said: Of course I heard it because I have been hearing it for years.“It is not if I hear it, that is not the question, the question should be are other people hearing it?“The biggest surprise would have been if I had not heard it today, as you all know, so it is what it is.“There has been a missed opportunity to send out the right message. I served my punishment today and I will be back in the dugout next week.”In February, Kilmarnock boss Steve Clarke accused Rangers fans of living in the dark ages after he was called a ‘Fenian b*****d’.Its lovely being back in the west of Scotland, really nice, he said. When I was approached by Rangers about taking over the job here I was assured that we dont have that in the west of Scotland anymore. Its gone.They can call me a b*****d or a w****r. No problem, thanks, guys. But to call me a Fenian b*****d, come on. Where are we living in? The dark ages?They are not allowed to call my assistant [Alex Dyer] a black b but they can call me a Fenian b*****d. What are we doing in Scotland?
