Far-right extermists are planning to try to recruit Aberdeen football fans next season.

The National Front has confirmed it aims to target Pittodrie, distributing leaflets outside the stadium.

It is understood extremists will focus their efforts on December's match against Celtic.

The club has previously been a target - the National Front attempted to sponsor a match in the 2003-04 season.

The organisation's website states: "We have plans in place to return to Aberdeen Football Club's Pittodrie stadium to do paper sales and leafleting.

"These paper sales will see a welcome return to one of our most popular sites."

While a spokesman for Aberdeen FC said National Front members would be thrown out if they tried to get into the ground, police are unable to prevent them from distributing leaflets outside.
