Much discussion about the display in section 111. The banner was in keeping with the Green Brigade’s left-wing credentials and demonstrates once more that in terms of imagination and display; they are unmatched among the ultra-fan groups in the UK.

Remembering those who lost their lives in the Ibrox Disaster on this day in 1971. No Billys or Tims today… just human beings. Suffering their own Via Dolorosa. Rivalry and hatred seem tawdry and small. In the face of such immutable suffering.
