Boruc does not like Rangers

Celtic goalkeeper Artur Boruc says he did not shake hands with Rangers players on Saturday as he does not like them or their club.
Artur Boruc refused to shake the hand of Rangers' David Weir
Celtic goalkeeper Artur Boruc has no regrets about his refusal to shake hands with Rangers players - because he does not like them or their club.
Boruc was criticised in some quarters for his actions after Rangers' 3-0 victory in Saturday's SPL meeting.
But he told Polish newspaper Gazeta Wyborcza: "They were provoking me throughout the game. They were teasing me and they were trying to hurt me.
"I don't have to love anyone. I don't like this club, or these players."
If we meet in town like normal people, I might shake hands
Boruc suggested that his latest decision was provoked by a pain in his hands and admitted that his emotions and adrenaline had been running high after a painful defeat.
But he stressed that he thought it ridiculous that he was expected to shake hands with the opposition.
Police had stressed that the 2006 caution of Boruc was for a "combination of behaviour" and not, as some had claimed, for blessing himself in a football fixture so often marred by religious rivalry.
But Boruc said of the latest incident: "They like to make scandals out of nothing.
"They complained to the police about certain gestures when we were winning. But they didn't call this time. Why? Because they won."
