I hope you will be just as vocal 0762 about Celtics problem rather than laying the issue at one club. Bearing in mind Lawell is the biggest power broker in Scotland. And the issue is not a football problem its a social issue .
The clubs voted for this stance on offensive singing etc, clubs will not vote in anything that will be detrimental to theirselves.

I am not sure what else a football club can do, and let's not make the solution just about Rangers, but if you use cctv to prosecute fans realistically how many of those arrests will see a court? Sure a club can ban any fan found guilty but we shouldn't see wholesale bans on accusations. To me the only way this will stop is if fan peer pressure is used to first of all not join in the songs but more importantly to shout down or ostracise the offenders but I think the only way this will happen is if the offending club is either fined, docked points or forced to play games behind closed doors or with stands shut. Irrespective of which team is guilty of this, the fans are really the only ones who can eradicate it as they are ultimately the perpetrators as well.
