Chris Sutton has called for action on the decision that excludes away fans from attending the two remaining SPFL Glasgow derbies.

Around lunchtime yesterday afternoon word seeped out to a number of media outlets that no away fans would be attending this season’s matches although neither club has made any comment.

With three weeks to go until the next clash at Celtic Park it seems too late to make any changes for this season with the clock ticking down rapidly towards next season.

Within the next six weeks fans in the Broomloan Road Stand will be getting asked to renew Season Tickets, when they are sold there is very little room to negotiate larger, safer away contingents.

Sutton didn’t mention the issue in his Daily Record column but the fall-out from yesterday’s news has prompted his reaction.

There will be around 800 Hibs fans inside Celtic Park today with Motherwell taking a similar number on April 22 but on April 8 for the derby it seems certain that it will be home fans only for the derby match.

Joe McHugh has edited Video Celts since 2010, every day covering events in and around Scotland's most successful club.

When a six year stretch at the Sunday Mirror came to an end it was clear that the future was digital, print had ran its race.

Smart phones and social media created a new landscape, Video Celts has certainly made an impact with Joe described as having an unhealthy obsession by Peter Lawwell at the 2024 Celtic AGM. A priceless endorsement.

There are issues breaking around the clock, no two days are the same. More than 50 years on from his first match Joe is enjoying the ongoing successes of Celtic.

    Well, there you are. There’s Dave king’s legacy to Scottish football, or part of it anyway.
    Ill-harmony and discord.
    What else to expect from the
    “Glib And Shameless”
    liar types?
