2 Glasgow Rangers Fans Caught on CCTV Charged
Gone are the days where you are going to get away with fighting inside a football ground. The CCTV cameras are set to cover and move into any hotspots that occur during a game.
And two Rangers fans are the latest to be caught this way, they have been charged with assaulting two police officers during the violent clashes at the 2008 UEFA Cup final in Manchester.
Mark Stoddart and Scott McSeveney were charged yesterday after their alleged attacks were captured on video.
About 150,000 Rangers fans travelled to Manchester for the match between the Glasgow club and Zenit St. Petersburg on May 14, 2008. Violence erupted when a big screen in the largest fan zone failed to show the game.
Groups of supporters clashed with police in a five-hour battle, with officers suffering broken bones and bruises.
It is about time this crap stopped and we can all enjoy our game without these dicks making it a hazard to go to some games as they can’t keep their little temper tantrums in check. Get a grip boys.
Are these fans? What do you think?
Ah the Days…
When footbal was interesting and Glasgow Rangers won.
Walter Can Interview
Walter Smith can interview. What is the story with some journalists? They think it is fine to get in front of the manager and slag off the team, madness.
Born A Fan
Born in Glasgow. I just had to be a fan of either Celtic or Rangers. I was born into the Glasgow Rangers fan club. Growing up in Glasgow one of the first questions as a kid meeting other kids was “Celtic or Rangers?”
The answer to that told more than just your choice of football team. There was the odd maverick who supported Patrick Thistle or Dumbarton, or even Motherwell. Poor kids – must have had parents that had no real influence.
So I’ve been a blogger for a while in other places – I have always thought this was a topic that could get me into too much trouble. So now I have reached the f-it stage. Here will be my thoughts on football and Glasgow Rangers in particular.
