forever_blue Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Yeah on balance I'd tend to agree. Mine's anecdotal too and a bit generalising but something I've noticed down the years is that Celtic fans tend to be slightly more self policing. If you have a handful being arses, drunk or daft wee laddies they'll quite often be reined in, either explicitly or by being shunned. Rangers (and presumably Sevco) fans on the other hand, don't really do this and standards tend to get pulled down to the lowest common denominator and carnage or real disgust often ensues. I suppose this is where the large-scale disorder sometimes came in as well because a few sensible heads might have nipped it in the bud. Celtic have been involved in more what would be described as chaotic scenes over the last few years than Rangers have , fir park , dens park , Amsterdam to name a few never mind all the IRA banner pish and booing of minutes silence for rememberance day and also a Rangers goalkeeper at ibrox a few years back with chants of Argentina because Simon Weston was at the game , so to be quite frank I find this point about celtic fans being somehow better at self policing as absolute horse shite in all honesty . If they did then whoever was responsible for attacking a ten year old boy with a bottle would have been reported to the police rather than walking the streets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forever_blue Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 being a foreigner living in Glasgow I think that's absolutely true. I encountered about 5 or 6 times random racist abuse on streets. All bar 1 are from creepy guys with rangers tops/ trainning shirts on. Never had any problem with Celtic fans on that score. Also I 've been to two hibs home games vs rangers last season and today. I enjoyed the victories on park, but had the misfortune to travel on train back to Glasgow with some rangers fans, their behaviours in general just like animals. let alone their 90 minutes routine of party songs and UJ and all that royalist shite. Every country has its fair share of moron and pervert, "working class Tory/ Royalist" as they called (I think their ideology is dangerously close to neo-Nazi sometimes). Bascially I reckon folks at very low social status and not very bright themselves tend to be attracted by these kinda shite, that's the case in my country and Scotland anyway. I really hope one day all these rangers fans could magically just sod off to Northern Ireland and Scotland would be a much better place. Wonder what shay Logan's view is of the all inclusive celtic support ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRob72 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 The Police hunt for the person responsible for throwing a beer bottle into a Rangers supporters bus prior to the League Cup semi-final last year has apparently been shelved. Although the glass bottle smashed into the face of an 11 year old boy, the Police have been unable to secure any witnesses. Aye, no f*cker knows who did it !!? If it was our fans singing naughty songs on the way to Hampden, I'm sure there would have been plenty of evidence and witnesses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was our fans singing naughty songs on the way to Hampden, I'm sure there would have been plenty of evidence and witnesses. It's been common knowledge for sometime that the entire thing was a pack of lies, the boy was accidently injured whilst those around him on the bus were trying to get to some uppity **** who dared walk up Cathcart rd before the game, very territorial these sevco fans, esp ones from Bridgton. The newspaper article even called the Celtic Fans "cowardly" but i'd say they were anything but if they were walking in that street prior to that game, and even less cowardly if they entered a bus load of sevco fans and threw a bottle at a child and then made their escape into a street full of sevco fans. Not a single witness, not a single image from CCTV, no prints or DNA from the bottle, its almost as if it never happened and you blame the lack of Police action on it being Celtic fans as if we are above the law, what a cretin. I',m sure in a few years time we'll see a young Glasgow man calling out his violent p***k of a step dad on the Jeremy Kyle Show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I',m sure in a few years time we'll see a young Glasgow man calling out his violent p***k of a step dad on the Jeremy Kyle Show. Aye, it clearly didn't happen...( from the BCC news report) ""A 10-year-old boy was hit in the face by a bottle thrown at a minibus as he travelled to Sunday's Celtic v Rangers football match in Glasgow. The boy, who was going to the game for the first time, was treated in hospital for a hairline fracture to his face and has three teeth missing. The 10-year-old was in a minibus of Rangers fans sitting in traffic at Cathcart Road, near Hampden Stadium. A group of Celtic fans surrounded the bus and hurled abuse at the occupants. Det Con Kenneth MacEwan said: "This was an appalling assault on the boy who was with his dad and fellow supporters going to his first Celtic v Rangers game. "He never got to the match but instead was detained overnight in hospital and has a facial injury and teeth missing." Det Con MacEwan said it appeared that the bottle was deliberately thrown at the minibus but the boy was not specifically targeted. The man who threw the bottle was described as white, 5ft 11in tall and of heavy build. He was wearing green clothing and possibly a white beanie hat. He and the men he was with continued along Cathcart Road and into Cathkin Park towards Hampden. Public order Earlier, police said 37 people were arrested for offences connected with the league cup semi-final, which Celtic won 2-0. As well as minor public order offences, 12 of the arrests concerned alleged sectarian breaches of the peace. Of those arrested, 23 people were due to appear at Glasgow Sheriff Court; 11 have been reported to the procurator fiscal and three were ordered to pay fixed penalty fines. Match commander Ch Supt Andy Bates said: "As usual the vast majority of the 50,000 fans were here to enjoy the game and support their respective team; they deserve credit for their excellent behaviour. "However, again, it is the minority of fans who spoiled the occasion by for example setting off flares and singing sectarian songs. "We dealt with any incidents swiftly and with minimum disruption." A cheek bone fracture and two missing teeth, and the boy was 'accidentally' injured !!? Aye right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew Brees Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 The only truth in that entire story was that celtic won 2-0 Don't believe everything you read in the papers son. If some *** entered our bus and threw a bottle and caused that damage to child he would have been hunted down. they must have mellowed over the years that Brigdeton Loyal mob.
