Rangers defender Lorenzo Amoruso has launched a stinging attack on James Grady after the 2-1 win at Livingston - insisting the Ayr striker is a "crazy Celtic fan".

The Italian was called before a Scottish Football Association disciplinary panel next month after a review panel had studied video evidence of an allegation he spat at Grady.

But Amoruso, who scored the opening goal at the City Stadium today, again hit back at his accuser.

Amoruso told BBC Scotland: "This guy is crazy - I don't know what he is talking about.

"I have seen the video again and everybody could see I was clearing my nose and I spat. But I did not spit at him.

"This guy was clever enough to that in the press and I have been judged already by some people without even being tried.

"That is absolutely ridiculous because, right from the beginning, he tried to do crazy things on the pitch - talking rubbish against myself.

"Everybody knows this guy is a Celtic fan - a crazy Celtic fan.

"I have never had this problem in my life and I'm not going to start with him."

Amoruso suffered another break to his nose at Livingston in a clash with Eugene Dadi.

But the former Gers skipper insists any serious medical work can wait until the end of the season.

Amoruso said: "It was already broken when we played in the cup game. We fixed it as best we could but it took another knock again.

"We will wait until the end of the season now and see what we can do."

And the Italian is determined to be available for the Old Firm derby next weekend with Celtic chasing a six-point gap at Parkhead.

Amoruso added: "It is a big, big game for us because it could be the game which may give us a big step forward to winning the league."
