Rangers reveller who threw bottle at police given unpaid work

A Fife dock worker threw a bottle at police during the Rangers title celebrations in 2021.

Graeme Conners, 38, claimed he committed the crime to bring attention to a woman he believed was being manhandled.

Thousands of fellow jubilant Gers fans gathered at Glasgow’s George Square to celebrate the club’s first Scottish Premiership title win on May 15 2021.

The city’s sheriff court was told there were supporters and members of the public “causing large-scale acts of violence directed towards police”.

Conners, of Kincardine, previously pled guilty to culpable and reckless conduct. He was ordered to carry out 120 hours of unpaid work.
