Has the away support ever been barred from an OF game?

Something in my heid says it has and fairly recently at that. Anyone confirm if this was the case?

I'm sure you're right, but I couldn't say when.

But I'm sure they found opportunities to kill and main one another regardless.

There was a match at Ibrox where Rangers had banned the Celtic support due to damage/vandalism during their previous visit.

I think the match finished 1-1 with John Collins scoring a superb curling free kick (predator boots had just come out).

That's the one.

30 April 1994. I was at that game. Collins scored and you could hear him clear as a bell go: "Yesssssssss!' Funny.

1993/94 - last OF game prior to McCann takeover I recall. Think background was Celtic refused to pay cost for some minor damage to seats, McCann agreed this would happen in future and there was rarely damage thereafter.

Instigation of David Murray, was widely condemned by press and fans of all Scottish clubs at time I recall and was revoked for next game.

I very much doubt that.
