Celtic appear to have reluctantly sent out another message to fans to stay away from Sunday’s Derby match.
Apart from a known of, stewarded and organised demo before the December match against Kilmarnock there has been nothing other than a handful of fans pre-match around Celtic Park to welcome the team.
After last weekends scenes of multiple law-breaking at Ibrox, Murray Park and George Square there are concerns over whether Sunday’s match will go ahead.
Ahead of this weekend’s match the message from the Club remains the same, please continue to follow Gov guidance, stay home and stay safe. Please do not attend Celtic Park on Sunday, your cooperation is very much appreciated? pic.twitter.com/lMuRez8Uav

Celtic have been dragged into the issue as the Scottish Government attempt to ensure that there is no repeat when the Ibrox club are next in action.
At the end of last week Celtic had to install barricades around the stadium with the authorities in talks over whether it is safe for Sunday’s match to go ahead.
Sunday’s match will be televised live by Sky Sports but the 12 noon kick off allows fans to gather afterwards which is bound to be a concern to the Government and Police.
