SPFL hoping to stamp out supporter misconduct after issuing revised rule book

[der Berliner 3,357]

BH, where you say "club's already take disciplinary measures" I think you need to asterisk that with *wxcept Celtic....

 

They are still looking for the lighter thrower that hit Ricksen.... and did they not also allow a previously banned supporter back into Parkhead....

 

... or the chap being arrested by Amsterdam police after the Hooped Horrors attacks on policemen and trams been given a guided tour of Parkhead a week or so later? Yeah, they do have a rather own universe when it comes to this kind of thing.

Dont worry in a few monthst it will all have been our fault and we will have to give Hibs compensation for hurt feelings .

We should be doing everything possible to ensure the strict liability policy NEVER comes into play in Scottish Football while our enemies control everything to do with Scottish football, from the SFA/SPFL boards, to the compliance officer to the press. There is only ever going to be one club hauled over the coals under SL rules.

On the contrary we will then find ourselves on the same side of the fence as Celtic; not exactly the moral high ground.

"On the same side of the fence" In your dreams. How many Rangers players were arrested for on the pitch incidents and how many Celtic. This bias is not a thing from now it has been going for years.

We may be on the same side but for different reasons.

 

Morality doesn't come into it if we object to it because we know there isn't going to be a level playing field.

It's a pretty bad set of affairs when all we want is a level playing field.

 

Obviously that's never been in Hibs' mindset...

Celtic are the Club who have stubbornly resisted the imposition of strict liability because they know full well from their record in Europe that they are the Club with most to lose.

 

We should take the moral high ground by supporting strict liability then they and others could no longer rely on the "reasonably practicable" defence.

 

Of course it does mean that we will have to do everything in our power to prevent any unacceptable conduct at Ibrox.

 

Strict liability will come sooner or later, either the Clubs will adopt it voluntarily, or it will be imposed by government.

If fans want to behave like morons then there is nothing our club or any club can do to prevent it happening its a bit unfair to hold any club responsible for their actions its up to the courts to hammer the eejits .

And maybe a police clampdown on the tonic wine drinkers last home game we came across two knobs in hand urinating down someones close door when the brother told them to behave like proper fans he was told to eff off twenty years ago he would have broke their necks .

I'm not keen on strict liability. It suits lazy governments, the police and, dare I say it, referee-minded folk.
