Darren Glendinning @Michex69 Garry Carmody Tom English That’s the point of strict liability. Rangers themselves may not be at fault, but the behaviour of their supporters would improve if any penalty was levied against the club.
@BeholdPazuzu Darren Glendinning @Michex69 Tom English This is totally untrue. Someone causing chaos in George Square yesterday has the threat of a criminal record and potential jail time. If the law doesn’t deter them, Rangers getting a £50k fine isn’t going to change their behaviour.
Garry Carmody Darren Glendinning @Michex69 Tom English I agree, fines for the club would make no difference. Docking them points is the best deterrent. You might suddenly find them policing themselves a little better if points were threatened.
