Old Firm unite over anti-bigotry plan after summit
by David Tails Tue 08 Mar 2011, 7:12 pm
A task force to explore match scheduling and a police pledge to target internet bigots are among measures announced following a summit into Old Firm-related disorder.
The body will look at when Old Firm games are played and whether banning orders could be extended to fans who misbehave away from grounds.
The clubs issued a joint plan to tackle bad behaviour surrounding the fixture.
And police will look at addressing "public order" issues on web forums.
The Strathclyde force requested the summit after describing scenes at last week's Celtic versus Rangers game as "shameful".
The game saw three red cards, several touch-line and tunnel confrontations and 34 arrests inside Celtic Park during a volatile Scottish Cup tie, which Celtic won 1-0.

It doesn't even begin to address the root cause of it.
