The classroom and the dugout - with Terry Christie and Tom Hendrie Weekend Bigots

Playing football, managing professional teams and teaching the nation's youth is a unique combination.But in this week's episode of Weekend Bigots, Terry Christie and Tom Hendrie discuss the reality of juggling these roles.Christie, an ex-headmaster and manager of Meadowbank Thistle, Stenhousemuir and Alloa Athletic, is widely regarded as one of the best part-time managers this country has produced, and gained fame as the duffle-coat wearing cup shock specialist.Tom Hendrie is a former manager of St Mirren, Berwick Rangers and Alloa Athletic, and was once a pupil of Christie’s at Forrester High School in Edinburgh before going on - like his friend and mentor - to play professionally for Dundee FC.They both acknowledge that religious rivalries play a part in the Old Firm, and explain how much of this is learned behaviour from school. They also discuss how both sectarianism and racism in football can be tackled.Credits:Mo Johnson signs for Rangers/ 10th July 1989 / Timestamp 17.50 -18.05 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fE674cACsRc&t=1192sJohn Greig v Celtic 1978/ Timestamp 0.2- 0.27 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3jxuuYOgt-YAirdrie 0 St Mirren 3- 23rd February 1999/ Timestamp 0.01 - 0.30 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cAUjm0hgUBoThe Nutmeg podcast/ Episode 29 Interview: Vic Kasule/ July 20th 2019/ Timestamp 16.52- 17.52 https://www.nutmegmagazine.co.uk/podcast/interview-vic-kasule/Hearts fans throw bananas at Walters/ 15th September 2012/ Timestamp 0.05- 0.40 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CIbHx_NUDq4BBC Alba/ Manager Terry Christie/ Timestamp 2.06- 2.36 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYO3gXbvWqQ&t=222sThe Bubble Didnae Burst! - St Mirren/ 13 August 2011/ Timestamp 42.10 - 42.30 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XEDX2_hNGFY&t=2555s
