Pontius Pilate - Meet Glasgow City Council!

Glasgow Times

I'm all in favour of football clubs like Celtic having to accept strict liability for what goes on inside their grounds, but I would add that it's Glasgow City Council's job to deal with anti-social behaviour on our streets.

Football clubs can and should offer their supporters some kind of official event to celebrate on-field success, but the unofficial gathering in Trongate at the weekend was just another ugly display of public drunkenness.

The football equivalent of a rave encouraged by anti-social groups like the Green Brigade and the impact on residents and businesses in that part of the city has been horrendous which is what needs dealt with by the Glasgow City Council and police.

Celtic FC have not done nearly enough to discourage the 'ultras' from using the club as a platform for their ugly behaviour, but that's no excuse for letting politicians off the hook and allowing Glasgow City Council to point the finger of blame elsewhere.
