Celtic vs Rangers: Tensions Rise with Fan Incidents and Police Actions
The recent Celtic vs Rangers match was marked by significant fan incidents and stringent police measures. Reports confirmed that Celtic fans were 'kettled' by police on London Road, leading to chaotic scenes outside the stadium. This action was part of a broader police strategy to manage the large crowds and maintain order during the high-stakes Old Firm clash.
Meanwhile, Rangers supporters celebrated their team's performance, with images circulating of fans reveling in the victory. However, not all fans experienced the match as intended. The Supporters Liaison Officer (SLO) issued a statement addressing the grievances of supporters who were denied entry to the game, highlighting issues with ticket management and stadium access.
Police Scotland had previously announced additional powers for the match day, aiming to prevent disorder and ensure public safety. The measures included increased stop-and-search operations and the potential for dispersal orders. These actions underscore the ongoing challenges of managing one of football's most heated rivalries.
