Fans against criminalisation group FAC have this morning claimed Police have been visiting the homes of some Celtic supporters to warn them against heading to Celtic Park next week before or after the derby.
If this is true, it’s the latest in a long line of unjust harassment by Celtic fans who have been dragged through the court systems for frivolous offences.
We’ve been made aware that @policescotland have been to visit the homes of numerous Celtic supporters to “warn them” not to show up at Celtic Park next week. This seems to be ongoing. This harassment is entirely unjustified and we urge all fans to stay calm and know your rights.

Police Scotland were a disgrace last weekend when things kicked off at Ibrox and George square. They facilitated the party and watched on as public property was trashed and a stay at home order ignored built thousands.
It should also be noted that most of these fans have no previous convictions, yet have been harassed at their homes late at night, or early this morning, in front of their worried family members. These are the actions of an authoritarian state. https://t.co/Bvy2xo0Un6

Going to peoples homes in order to warn them about visiting any particular area of Glasgow is so beyond the pale and IS unjust harassment.
As the Tweet says, if this happens to you in the coming days, keep your cool and know your rights.
You can contact FAC about any unjust harassment. Visit their website for more information. http://fansagainstcriminalisation.com/

Sounds a sensible move.
I imagine the people being contacted are no strangers to anti-social behaviour in the past.
As long as no one is being arrested can’t see the fuss in being contacted in advance.
Perhaps these ‘fans’ expect the same kid gloves treatment they usually get from Celtic despite costing the club hundreds of thousands of pounds in UEFA fines due to previous actions.
How many huns got a chap?
