In the dark ages

-

FRANK McAveety is obviously after the football fans’ vote. (Evening Times, September 27)

He criticises the Scottish Government for wanting to introduce “strict liability” in an attempt to encourage football clubs and the SFA to get their heads out of the sand and take some responsibi­lity for what goes on inside football grounds.

We have a situation where fans can get away with singing racist and sectarian songs and cause thousands of pounds of damage.

There seems to no appetite by the clubs and the useless SFA to tackle the problem at source.

Perhaps points reductions and ground closures are needed to drag football into the 21st century.
