Bit of a shame tbh, I was kinda wondering what 300 away fans would look like inside Ibrox 🤣

Token effort by the SFA - no punishment whatsoever.

Why not force both clubs to play the next two derbys in front of zero fans from both clubs one each at Ibrox/Parkhead. That will hit them both financially, it doesn’t involve any other Scottish clubs and hopefully sends the correct message that this behaviour will not be tolerated.

That would be the SFA putting the foot down…….I won’t hold my breath.

You’ve seen the Pars now please go home!

Seems a reasonable outcome, although I hope it is just a temporary one.

The Old Firm games put the spotlight on our country and our sport, we want it to be a showcase we can. We get caught up ion the "local issues" of it while audiences abroad lap that all up.

What a bunch of limp ones the SFA are. This is no real punishment at all.

I assume the cup games will likely just end up on the telly as well.

It is a punishment. The next Scottish cup game they both play at home will be behind close doors, it’s nothing to do with an old firm game

Or atleast that is how I read it.

To be fair, the SFA have acted in cup games citing both Rangers and Celtic’s first home matches in the Scottish cup will be behind closed doors and they must pay the opposition £100000 for what would be shared gate money.
This latest decision was agreed with both clubs agreement also (or lack of)
