It’s not every day that Rangers and Celtic fans roundly agree on one thing – but they do over that disgusting video of someone taunting Scott Brown.
The Celtic captain was filmed being abused as he left Ibrox, with a Rangers “fan” asking the midfielder “how’s your sister?”
Brown’s sister died of cancer at the age of 21. Needless to say, the overwhelming majority of Rangers fans are disgusted.

The supporter has reportedly received a lifetime ban and it is no less than he deserves for goading Brown with such a low blow.
It’s not the first time in recent weeks Rangers fans have rounded on disgraceful fan behaviour which gives the club a bad name.
Supporters have roundly criticised the sectarian chanting at the ground which lead to a partial stadium closure by UEFA.
Scottish football is unfortunately rife with disgusting incidents like this.
Motor Neurone Disease sufferer Fernando Ricksen is routinely abused by his rivals in disgraceful comments. One even revealed a disgusting tattoo [Scottish Sun].
There have also been historic chants about David Murray’s disabilities and uniquely to a section of Celtic fans, about Lee Rigby, a military drummer who was infamously decapitated in cold blood in London.
This kind of behaviour – be it from blue or green – continues to be a blight on not just Scottish football, but Scottish society.
It is absolutely no surprise that so many Rangers fans have come out to criticise the move.
This kind of verbal assault – borne of stupidity and ignorance – have no place at Ibrox, Parkhead or anywhere else in Glasgow.
