    Did it not happen in Macedonia? If so is there actually anything Police Scotland can do if the offense took place in another country?

    Where does it say Rangers are doing something about it?

    Good for them if they are, they've been silent on far too much unacceptable conduct in the past, it is great that someone is taking an interest in this.

    It was a horrible clip, it's horrible as a Scot to be associated with that type of language and behaviour, and it must be even worse if it is coming from a fan of your club.

    They Tweeted it. So they can be prosecuted here....anywhere, theoretically.

    They're a prejudiced extreme right wing club, and will always attract that type of supporter. Every club has one or two, they have hundreds.

    Well done Rangers. Positive step. Now start banning the 40 odd thousand lowlife who think sectarian abuse is ok from Ibrox.

    It's a start

    i'm willing to bet the real anger of orc fans will be directed at the celtic fan 'grassing' look what you've signed up to gerrard, the football club with the most vile set of fans in britain, bar none

    I seen the clip the other day and it's sickening to watch regardless of who was involved (can't say I'm surprised at who the offender supports)... the innocent and ignorant looks on the kids' faces as they're standing there being racially abused.

    Absolute low life, as are those involved in filming/sharing the moment with him.

    there's a chance you could be right on both counts

    When you pander to a 'minority' with orange and sash strips, dubiously worded statements, flute music before games and soldiers indulging in some light hearted bigotry parading about the pitch then this is exactly the kind of person you attract.

    I'd say well done Rangers but I'll save that for when they stop abetting this kind of behaviour and crack down on their supporters actions rather than encouraging it.

    Can’t help but feel that because they are freely allowed to be sectarian and abuse catholics every week they feel they can get away with anything

    I wonder if Scottish authorities will take action

    I won’t hold my breath

    The authorities, as in Police Scotland, are duty bound to act if a complaint has been made.

    The authorities, as in the SFA, can't, as we don't have strict liability.

    As despicable as this is, is it any worse than the sectarian behaviour supporters of that club indulge in on a regular basis?

    I'd take the outcry over this from their fellow supporters, their club and the media more seriously if they had the same outrage over their sectarian antics.

    I think it is, yeah.

    I was in Liverpool last week, and being a scouser the taxi driver wanted to talk the whole way. Liverpool fan who can't get a season ticket so has a season ticket for Rangers because they are a British team. He goes every fortnight, loves the banter but says the quality Scottish football is '****'. Took great pleasure in telling me that Scotland can't manage on their own and he (personally) would'do anything' to stop independence. Hates the EU, thinks the UK will 'get all its industry back' if it leaves Europe. He was just back from Belfast to join in their 12th July celebrations. And no, he doesn't like foreigners either.

    Lots of Rangers fans only follow them for political reasons. If they weren't linked with that belief system they'd have a lot less fans.

    Seen a few vids of the wee guy in the vid supposedly having fun and some Rangers fans were being nice to them. There are a some decent ‘bears’ as they like to call themselves. Those ‘decent bears’ are few and far between it has to be said

    I was sickened by the video

    Aye mental. Passes for entertainment down the Lodge. The National Front paper Bulldog was sold openly outside Ibrox in the past. They attract the racist-minded from Scotland and beyond.

    Thought I had seen their new third strip the other day. It was a white one with the old clubs badge and five stars above it. On the left shoulder was half a Union Jack.

    I reckon it must just be a training top, but they are pandering to the far right element in their support too much.
