NICOLA STURGEON said she will be seeking assurances from Scottish football before allowing the Glasgow Derby to go ahead in two weeks time.
The First Minister addressed the major issue of Celtic’s rivals flaunting the current rules to congregate in Glasgow over the weekend and the damage it caused.
Nicola spoke about elite football being allowed to continue for the fans but if the fans cant behave then there could be consequences.
“At no point, unless I missed it, did Rangers simply and unequivocally say to fans ‘stay at home’ or ‘go home’”
.@NicolaSturgeon says three page letter she received from Rangers didn’t “even reflect fact” that crowds gathered “was deeply regrettable”.@LBC | @LBCNews pic.twitter.com/S5uwfPQWkN

The carnage over the weekend also saw a Celtic shop damaged at the hands of thugs.
If the Glasgow Derby goes ahead, there’s a worry there could be more congreations which the police don’t appear to be able to manage.
The threat of a mob getting violent meaning they are passive.
Celtic want to see out the season and head into next term with a bit of hope. Winning the Glasgow Derby could be a great way to get going once again.
We hope the match will go ahead and the idiots who want to flaunt the rules are dettered from
