The Scottish media is starting to face up to the international carnage that is likely in Seville next week. 

Last year’s events in George Square were domestically sidelined with BBC, STV and Sky Sports all deciding to keep their cameras away from the vandalism in and around the city centre. News management and deflection next week will be impossible. 

Putting 60,000 Ibrox fans, more than half of them ticketless, in to a civilised city with the same number of German visitors with temperatures in the high thirties has the portents for more than a perfect storm. 

With right-wing elements from throughout England teaming up with undesirables from Bridgeton, Larkhall, Airdrie, Bearsden, Kilwinning and pockets from the north east corner of Ireland it doesn’t take a security expert to anticipate the likely outcome. 

Soaring temperatures and sky-high ticket prices mixed with their misplaced Superiority Complex and Brexit is a potent brew. One that Stewart Robertson is well aware of. 

The Ibrox MD knows the toxic nature of his customer base. While pleading with the Spanish authorities to roll out the red carpet with fan-zones and big screens he wouldn’t dare open Ibrox for those left behind. 

Anyone doubting the threat from Ibrox Season Ticket holders should contact BT Sport or Chris Sutton. 

From Monday Robertson and the Scottish media lose control of the story. The horrors that were inflicted on Glasgow city centre twice during lockdown last year are about to be exported with the numbers involved far, far greater in a classical Spanish city.

    Does anyone know when all the inquiries into the Ibrox game v CELTIC are due to conclude. That’s round about the time pundits and SMSM basically said the “league was NOT important” and the CL money was NOT as much as first thought. And qualification was NOT guaranteed. Me thinks CELTIC must have been made favourite to win the league at that time… just saying

    Editor: Conclude or commence?

    It is absolutely incredible that a few days before THE most momentous day in that klub’s history that their MD has to issue a thinly veiled plea to their fans to respect the people and the city that is hosting them. He has just unwittingly warned the residents and shopkeepers and pub staff of Seville that Scotland’s Shame are on their way and it might be best to batten down the hatches, for no amount of profits will compensate for the devastation that will come. It’s telling that their own club refuse to hold a money spinning beamback like the other finalists are doing for their fans.They’re not called HUNS for nothing. Good luck Seville.

    I want to see: water cannons, tear gas, rubber bullets, real bullets fired from semi automatic weapons, special forces, attack dogs, tasers, asps and good old batons on the head and severe boots in the baws delivered to these fascist yahoo scum.

    Anyone caught shitting in the street should be made to pick it up with their bare hands and rub it on their faces as a mark of the animals they are.

    More serious and violent offences must be dealt with maximum force up to and including lethal measures.

    These scum huns merit nothing less.

    C’mon the Spanish Special Forces and police.

    Do the rest of Europe a favour and teach these sevcnuts a lesson they won’t ever forget.
