Our board will have field day with this, think of all the banning and sell again opportunities on ST's.

I'm pretty sure rapists and murders don't run "tonto" on the streets of Scotland.  If you suspect someone of rape or murder call the Police and I can assure you it'll get dealt with.

Untouchable Albanian warlords included?

The Scottish Professional Football League has issued new regulations aimed at tackling supporter misconduct.

All 42 of its member clubs are expected to take strict disciplinary measures against fans who indulge in anti-social behaviour during matches.

The updated guidance, which comes into force immediately, states that home clubs are responsible for "good order and security".

Clubs are also urged to step up efforts to identify culprits.

Under the previous rules, clubs could argue that they had taken all practical steps to deter misbehaviour inside their stadiums.

Now they must been seen to actively pursue cases and take "appropriate" action against the perpetrators.

In June, following disorder at the Scottish Cup final, Justice Secretary Michael Matheson called for "a transparent and robust scheme" to prevent and deal with unacceptable conduct.

He went on to warn: "The Scottish government is prepared to act if Scottish football isn't."

On the rule changes, SPFL chief executive Neil Doncaster said: "The SPFL and its member clubs are committed to preventing and to addressing unacceptable conduct where it arises, to ensure our stadiums are friendly, welcoming and safe environments where all supporters can enjoy Scottish football.

"This ongoing work includes this updated guidance for clubs which sets out the reasonably practicable measures that member clubs can take to address this issue and to identify and sanction those who engage in unacceptable conduct.

"It has been fully consulted on with all 42 clubs, the Scottish FA and the Scottish Government and, indeed, dialogue continues with the Government on a number of further measures which will be discussed early this year."

I assume that means for cup ties at neutral grounds that responsibility falls to the SFA or SPFL?

[Escobar 13,676]

They are slowly pushing for fans to eventually chuck it and stop going to football. Killing the support. 

Do some proper police work.

They want us all to behave like those rugby wallopers all sitting amongst each other and getting on, minus the bevvy god forbid.

I did notice that part and wondered how that would work with Hampden games.

Dave king will be rubbing his hands, we'll be the first British club now to sell 90k season tickets 

First 45k will be banned battering out the billy boys, so he'll resell the tickets

Easy money

Really it should be the SFA/SPFl who do this if the Govt wants to get involved but if we are targetted for sectarianism , even more than we are now ,then the club should state that the Scottish Govts apartheid schooling policy is the root cause of sectarianism in this country. Until thats fixed and a generation of schoolchildren pass through the system then the clubs hands are tied.

[A.T.G 10,773]

Basing it on the Scottish Cup Final 

Here's an idea, fine Hibs and Motherwell £500,00, dock them 35 league points and a suspension from next seasons cup competitions.

That will soon stop any "disorder" 

Fucking retards

[loyal 136]

another bit of legislation from sturgeon and her storm troopers to enforce they seem to add something each month soon it will be a crime just to be a supporter.

Anyone that was at Kilmarnock in August and the heavy poliis presence pushing bears as if we were criminals was fukin terrible .football clubs should counter act this by issuing the snp with notice that society has broken down and it's their responsible to control it not a football clubs but when   hivs mutants invaded  the hampden pitch it was sweep sweep .

Yes dividing children on religious grounds at 4.5 - 5 years old is mental but no one will try and sort it unfortunately.

Pity this wont stretch to H**  or orange bastards.

That would really cause a problem for SPFL clubs....

Someone was up at court for Orange Bastard, not sure if what happened though, boy was still at school.

It's just more rhetoric and posturing from the arseholes that run football with the get out clause of the big bad government will get you.

Whether they try or not the Scottish Govt cannot expect football clubs to prevent what they class as sectarian acts in football grounds while at the same time financing apertheid schooling. Also religious education should not be compulsary at schools unless a child wishes to study it after they reach 3rd year at the high school. Its about time we said this rather than apologising if one of the support shouts FTP. We get beat with the sectarian stick far too much and are now seen as an easy target.

I was astonished when I heard that after the game. I am in the east enclosure and never noticed it at the time, but can you imagine that being allowed to happen at the tattie dome in reverse, my opinion is no chance.

The thumb or the pinky whatever the fuck his name is should still be charged for that. Despicable little fenian twat.

Cannot understand why it was allowed, but it seems 'they' can do anything they want.

I also wonder if anyone at our Club noticed this and had a word with our security and the polis because it is the kind of thing that should not happen again IMO.

Indeed and they should have doused it in petrol and burnt the putrid thing.

But still if players can be charged after the event with media publications or videos (like the thumb once was), then they can dig this one up.

The board should consult with supporters to see how we feel about this before agreeing to anything. This will be aimed purely at the Rangers support home and away. Nothing surer 

The board won't consult the Rangers fan base they will only speak to C1872 which certainly isn't the same thing.

[eejay the dj 31,964]

Moan all we want about this . The club .

Our club will do sweet fuck all to stand up for themselves and the club's massive loyal support .

Shame on these pussy bastards

Remember the 3-0 game at the piggery, labeld the old firm shame game? We done a mock huddle at the end of said game, that was it, they threw coins and invaded the pitch and had guys jumping off the top tier, yet we were equally to blame. Absolute joke, always thought our club never done enough to defend themselves back then and nothing much has changed tbh.

[BRICKY1872 118]

Does this mean the SFA can be held accountable for the Scottish Cup Final mayhem? Given that it was at their stadium, under their auspices and they were therefore responsible for security? Pfffttt
