Two men have been arrested in connection with disorder-related offences following further protests outside Celtic Park on Sunday.
The arrests were made as champions Celtic drew 1-1 with St Johnstone in Glasgow – a result that means Neil Lennon’s side are now 13 points behind Rangers in the Scottish Premiership.
A spokesman for Police Scotland said: “Two men have been arrested in connection with disorder offences outside Celtic FC’s stadium in Glasgow this evening.
“The Scottish Government regulations are quite clear that these types of protests are prohibited in areas under Level 4 restrictions.
“Our response has been measured and proportionate.
“We will continue to engage with the public, explaining legislation and encouraging compliance, and using enforcement as a last resort.”
It’s the second time in two weeks fans have clashed with police outside the stadium calling for the exit of manager Neil Lennon.
Police had warned supporters last week not to gather outside the stadium following violent scenes in the aftermath of Celtic’s 2-0 defeat to Ross County in the League Cup on Sunday, November 29.
Glasgow is currently under level four of the Scottish Government’s Covid-19 restrictions, so protests and similar events are prohibited.
