<\/p>\nDespite some of the worst behaviour seen off the pitch at a football match in many years, the media are strangely silent when it comes to condemnation of those involved.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In the past, we’ve seen headlines such as “shame game ” which have led to political interference with football, and all sorts of articles suggesting ways to punish perpetrators, and speculating as to the causes.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Unfortuantely, since the guilt lies entirely within the remit of the “rangers ” football club, no one can suggest that closing catholic schools is the answer, and therefore the media is completely out of ideas to solve the problem.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The injury to a Celtic physio was the result of several missiles thrown towards the Celtic players.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You’ll notice from this picture others trying to avoid what can only be described as a shower of objects thrown towards them. It’s surprising only one person was injured.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
At half time, broken glass found it’s way into the goalmouth that would be occupied by Joe Hart, who would have been well within his rights to refuse to continue the game, but hey..it’s the old firm..it’s a special atmosphere and makes for great tv….<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Some are claiming that a fan stood on a bottle and threw the broken bits onto the park.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I’m having trouble with this theory. Try standing on a bottle to break it, especially a brown beer bottle…though it could have been buckfast.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Even if you succeed the glass will not crumple underfoot, it will end up anywhere in a fifty foot radius, which means that whoever was nearby would certainly have not only noticed it but had a bit of a moan about glass flying around.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
As for throwing the bits what is a considerable distance ….try that as well. You won’t cover the distance that seems to have been covered by these fragments.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It’s more likely that a bottle was thrown and crashed off the crossbar, shattering over a fairly large area, which would explain why so many bits were found by so many people.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Unless , of course, one of the groundstaff put it there at half time. An unlikely theory, but almost certainly the one that the SMSM would consider had the incident happened in front of the Lisbon Lions stand, for instance.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Missiles were also launched towards Portuguese winger Jota when he tried to take a corner kick. Again , no one is highlighting this.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
No one is demanding an investigation into the levels of security at Ibrox that allowed those who cleane the place up after a game to collect a number of glass bottles that didn’t find their way onto the pitch…<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The Herald covered it, even mentioning that the bottles were found in the “Rangers End “, which is a bizarre way to describe all but 700 seats out of nearly 50,000, and interestingly, no one on their staff would put their name to the story…<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
SEVERAL glass bottles were recovered following yesterday’s Old Firm derby at Ibrox between Rangers and\u00a0Celtic<\/a>.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
