Any Celtic Fan Who Threw A Bottle Today Must Be ID’d, Caught, Banned And Jailed.

Ugly scenes at the end of the game today apparently.

Ugly all in capitals.

Our fans as well as theirs.

This is not a time, not a moment, for Whatabouttery.

I don’t care who started it, who did what to who or any of the rest of that nonsense … any Celtic fan who was involved in this and throwing stuff needs ID’d, caught, banned and jailed.

Don’t give me any of the usual craic either about grassing or any of that cardboard hard-man “we live by the code” patter. Pissed up neds and idiots like this don’t belong in our support and it’s imperative to rid the fan-base of them pronto.

We’ve gone over this on this site at regular, and depressing, intervals in this campaign; there is an element in our support which is every bit as bad as the scum on the other side of the city and we need to get these people chased.

There are no excuses, and there must be no compromises.

The club must – as a priority – identify everyone responsible and pass on whatever details it has on them to the police and these people need to be banned from our ground and prosecuted to the absolute limit of the law.

No half measures. No mercy whatsoever.

This is not the Celtic support.

Our fan-base wants no part of this loutish, goonish behaviour.

It is a blight on our good name.

It is a stain on our reputation and it is precisely the sort of stuff that makes it hard for “neutrals” to see past the hated, despised Old Firm tag which the rest of us are working so hard to have consigned to the bin.

I’ve always said that the word “hun” is not a sectarian word but one that describes a mentality, a mind-set, that it’s about behaviour and not identity … well that’s what these people are, and nothing better demonstrates the way the word should be used than to apply it to these muppets who act in such a disgraceful fashion whilst hiding in our support.
