Old Firm match: Boy, 10, injured by bottle thrown at minibus on busy main road

A 10-year-old Rangers fan has recalled getting hit in the face by a bottle on the way to Sunday's Old Firm game. Kieran Duffy, from Springboig, Glasgow, said he saw the bottle come flying towards him from the corner of his eye. The 10-year-old was in a minibus of Rangers fans sitting in traffic at Cathcart Road, when a group of Celtic fans surrounded the bus and hurled abuse at the occupants. Mr Duffy said the fans passed the bus and a couple of them decided to attack the driver. The door was opened and a bottle was thrown.

Kieran, who required stitches, said: "I swallowed a tooth and one of them was cracked in two."

Stays In The Grounds 4:

Mark Scott was killed on a Saturday afternoon on his way home from a football match between Celtic and Partick Thistle in Glasgow’s East End. Mark was a 16-year-old boy walking with 2 friends on a busy street when he was murdered in an attack by a stranger. Mark never saw his killer. Mark's pals told the court that they were heading home after watching Celtic beat Partick Thistle 2-1. They were walking along London Road towards the city centre to get a train.

His friend told Iain Bonomy QC, prosecuting, that a man standing with a group of people outside a pub near Bridgeton Cross spat beer at them. The beer hit Mark and Iain, but none of them reacted to it. They just kept walking forwards. James said he then heard footsteps running up from behind them and then Mark was stabbed out of nowhere.

“My mum’s from the Protestant side and she met my

father because they both worked in Littlewoods and he is

of Italian descent, mostly Catholic and my Grandfather

wasn’t too impressed at all. I presume they knew when

they met. I don’t think they thought anything of it. They

just fell in love with each other and that was that, kinda

thing”.
