Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers has been branded a “dinosaur” by a women’s group for calling a journalist a “good girl” during a tense post-match interview.
Both the Scottish Feminist Network and For Women Scotland are calling for the Hoops manager to apologise for the “sexist” comment made following his team’s dramatic 3-1 win over Motherwell at Fir Park on Sunday.
It came after Rodgers was asked by reporter Jane Lewis about the Cinch Premiership title race during a radio interview for BBC Sportsound.
Glasgow rivals Rangers are currently sitting at the top of the league with a two-point lead.
Rodgers said: “There’s a story been [written] about this group, but we will write our own story.”
When asked to elaborate on what he meant, Rodgers said: “No, no, you know exactly what I mean.
Ms Lewis replied: “I’m actually not sure I do exactly know what you mean.”
But Rodgers then wrapped up the interview by saying: “Done, good girl, well done.”
The BBC told Sky News it was not commenting on the incident.
